Deadpool wins Critic Choice Award and is nominated for 2 Golden Globes!

If you remember a few weeks back, Deadpool star and producer Ryan Reynolds sent out a few tweets stating that he wanted his film to be nominated for many, many Oscar awards. He even went as far as sending screeners of the film to voters of the Academy with personal letters stating why it should be considered. Since then, Deadpool has not been nominated by the academy, but has since been nominated as a Golden Globe nominee for 2 different categories.

Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy

In even better news, last night Deadpool won the Critics’ Choice Award For Best Comedy and seems to be leading the movement for more R-rated superhero films. Would you like to see Deadpool win some more awards?

Thank you, Golden Globes! As we speak, the entire Deadpool team is engaged in a grotesque, early morning tickle-fight. pic.twitter.com/l2LJT32tAi
