Wraith in the film is the black cowboy. Agent Zero is Maverick, but was renamed in the comics relatively recently to Agent Zero.
Did anybody watch the leaked version and enjoy stunning cinematic effects such as red text and arrows "Nails Grow"?
Actually, Striker does call Weapon XI Deadpool. He says if I recall correctly, "We needed your ability for Deadpool. My son was the beginning of Weapon XI and you were it's end." Or something along those lines. But he does call Weapon XI Deadpool and he does imply that it's his son. Also he was part robot which can be seen when Striker inputs the engage command when he's face to face with Logan. Also also, I recall Logan calling Weapon XI Wade when they faced off which was what Striker called Reynolds in the beginning of the movie. So Wade=Striker's son? Yea that's cause Cyclops is a dick to everyone. I thought it was a decent movie. I was a little upset that it strayed from the comic but that was to be expected. Also not enough Sabretooth vs Wolverine action. Gambit's role was too small and I feel like they gave Agent Zero a bigger role then he should've had. They should've clarified more with Weapon XI too. As well as Deadpool.
thought it was a pretty awesome movie, sat in the front row at the theatre and strained my neck, missed the end trailers though, left too early, my loss i suppose
1 - The Deadpool of the movie was a collection of powers, hence 'pool'. When he said his son was the beginning, and so and so was the end, he meant those were the powers he wanted to implement into a single pool of powers to create weapon xi. Deadpool in the comics did not come from anything even remotely similar (but he did have no mouth =P ). 2 - The name, Wade vs Reynolds, is pretty simple to explain. Friends and military, especially officers, generally refer to soldiers by last name over first name. The characters actual name is Wade Reynolds, the guy who played him is Ryan Reynolds (so they added a little fun 'catch me' type thing in there by using the actors real last name as his characters). 3 - Clarification of Deadpool will be coming in the new Deadpool movie http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1431045/
I thought this movie was good although I do agree that Gambit should've had a bigger role. Loved the fact that Patrick Stewart reprised his role as Xavier in the end. Unfortunately I never got to see the secret ending but...no biggie :-/
