I didn't like the Spy Kids movies and I don't remember what other movies he directed, so I can't tell.

I think he might be able to pull it off. Deadpool has a silliness above other comic bookies and with Rodriguez's child-friendly experience, imagination isn't a foreign concept.

Seems like a good fit.

I. AM. ALL. FOR. THIS.

I smell about 12 months more of rumors and allegations

This guy would be fantastic for directing Deadpool's first movie

I think he could do it. Now if the film ever manages to get off the ground...

Hey, I want his Machete shirt. I know it was recently announced that there's going to be a sequel to Predators, so I guess that's the busy stuff he swamps in. I guess he would be able to pull it off, if anything like that is going to happen.

"... the character differed from his comic book counter-part a little too much."
No kidding xD That was probably the worst rape of a character ever. 
 
I really hope it will be Rodriguez. As said before: Sin City was pretty nice. And he might be able to pull of a true-to-the-comics Deadpool.

cool, I love garage VFX

Planet Terror was awesome, Machete looks kick-ass and Sin City was epic.
YES! 
 

Any film directed by RR has a 84 percent chance of cinematic excellence, so this would be good.

Wow it just goes to show how in the know I am...I didn't even know they were making a Deadpool movie. ^_^;

If he can keep it close to the original Deadpool then I say, 'Why Not?'

I fink Id like RR to direct Deadpool, I cant really fink of any1 else Id rather have but then again i ent too good with directors :S

he's managed to pull of some really insane stuff in the past, and from the few seconds that Deadpool was in the Wolverine movie (which I really regret seeing) i feel like a Deadpool movie needs quite a bit of insanity. if he does end up doing it, let's hope he gets it right

I think Rodriguez would be a good person to direct this.  He just needs to find some time since he's gonna do another Spy Kids and then maybe Predators 2: Even More Predators.

I think Rodriguez would be perfect for Deadpool. If anyone can do the humor coupled with the violence that Deadpool needs its him. I mean look at Planet Terror, it was the better of the two Grindhouse movies and I'm pretty sure all the good parts of the ones he's done with Tarrantino were his idea.

" I smell about 12 months more of rumors and allegations "

Please, no! There are already too much mindless blood spread around the world.

Spy kids was the best, so hopefully he'll do well with this too! You go Rodriguez!

enough with this film already.

I feel so left out of the Deadpool lovefest since I really don't like the character.

I would love it if Rodriguez would direct

I think he would be a good director for it, some of his stuff suits the kind of style Deadpool would need.

I'd rather see him make a Madman movie, but if he is going to make Deadpool like the comic, thats cool.
But really, Madman movie please.

I'm not excited at all for a Deadpool movie.

this may actually make me watch

I approve!

" I smell about 12 months more of rumors and allegations "

" I smell about 12 months more of rumors and allegations "

I am all for this.

Cool

I think he could pull it off.

didn't he do Dawn of the Dead???

With the El Mariachi trilogy style of gun play, and his humor and violence he would be GREAT for this.  Here's to hoping.

Spy Kids? Deadpool? Deadpool Kids!?

I hope he doesn't. I don't really dig his directing.

I haven't seen Predators but I'm not sure if Rodriguez has grown much as a director... but if you want irreverence mixed with hyper violent action for a popcorn flick not meant to be QT-level hype then he's your man.

I wonder if there is going to be any backlash???

I like it... I think he has a good vision and could produce a great/fun movie

I've been a moderate fan of Rodriguez since Desperado, so I'm all for this. Plus, since he makes movies so cheaply, there's a better chance of it actually getting made.

I dont know how I feel about this. Has to be better than Spy Kids right?

There are only 2 directors that I would trust with this movie and those are Robert Rodriguez and 
Quentin Tarantino.

I´m a big fan of Rodrigues' work and I think that anything that he does regarding comics adaptation to movies will be great...hope the idea goes throught
