OT: Online Petition to have Deadpool host SNL

Submitted by James Burrill Angell on

Thought this was a not so bad idea. A Deadpool fan started an online petition to try to attract attention to the idea of having Ryan Reynolds host Saturday Night Live in character as Deadpool. Might be fun. I'm a fan of both franchises and it would be a good change up for SNL. The idea is not completely unheard of either as Pee Wee Herman (actor Paul Reubens) hosted SNL in character back in the day.  For those remotely interested here's the link:

Apparently 32,000 people have signed thusfar.

Cut from his hands by the Silver Samurai in the Wolverine, which also never happened after the next movie, Days of Future Past. The end of The Wolverine he resprouted bone claws, and had bone during DOFP. Furthermore the timeline reset from after the attempted attack on President Nixon by Magneto, so the time on the island with Stryker never happened.

To be fair, however, some pretty asinine petitions have appeared on Change.org over the years, most of which were totally unrelated to social causes. A couple examples that I have seen - 

- bringing hot mustard sauce back to McDonalds

- porting Smash Borthers to PSVita

- petition to stop making stupid petitions

As for Deadpool hosting SNL, it was a hilarious film, I thought. It would definitely be interesting.
