Deadpool 2 (David Leitch, May 18, 2018) Movie • Page 11

Zazie was amazing

My only complaints are
Ugh TJ Miller the fucking worst human
The fridging of Vanessa and Cable’s wife and daughter ( even if their deaths are reversed in the end)
Needed way more Negasonic

 

Agreed with the complaints. TJ Miller was awful. Didn’t laugh at anything he said.

 

The interrogation sequence was pretty funny, but yes, fuck TJ Miller.

 

Thought this was pretty bad. Rewatched the first one last night and enjoyed that much more.

 

Didn’t even realize that was Brad Pitt playing vanisher haha.

EDIT: or that that was Matt Damon playing one of the rednecks on the truck.

 

and the other redneck was Alan Tudyk

also Ryan voiced the Juggernaut

 

George Clooney played the baby legs... it was an Ocean’s 12 reunion!

 

Enjoyed this a lot. Couple things bugged me, though. I elaborated in a post I made in the, uh, Supernatural thread. In retrospect, the post is a little more about SPN than it is about DP2, but I thought I'd share it here anyway.

Also TJ Miller isn't funny at all in this movie, or the previous one.

 

MacGruber was the first thing I thought of too. Still hilarious. Though I thought in the previews they made it seem like Bedlam was going to have a much bigger role.

 

No, no, no, no, no, Tug? Tug? Tug? Are you okay?

 

I should watch MacGruber

 

What's wrong with someone wearing a Deadpool shirt to a Deadpool movie??

 

It's moreso that Deadpool has a ton of annoying-ass diehard fans, especially since the first movie dropped. And this one in particular laughed in the most insufferable way during many of the film's jokes. I had to tell him to take it easy, and I generally don't like confrontation in moments when I just want to enjoy a goddamn movie

 

That reminds me of the time I went to see the first Avengers movie and I wound up sitting behind a group of what felt like the most overzealous comic book fans who laughed maniacally at literally every single joke, as if this were the first time their ears had ever been graced with jokes and they were just now discovering how to laugh. Then later when Tony goes into space and tries to call Pepper but she doesn’t hear her phone ringing, one of the girls in front of me reached her arms out to the screen and went “Ooh ooh ooh Pepper, pick up! Oooooh Pepper no! Oooooh! Poor Tony! Ooooooh!”

 

Wow, that's something else. I feel like in my case I should have known what I was getting into, given what so many CBM fans have been like for years now. Then again, this is basic moviegoing etiquette and that shit shouldn't be tolerated. Think next time (and any other time in the future) I'm just gonna speak up if it keeps going. This has happened way too much already

 

TJ Miller going back to the well of “You look like an [object] [verbed] a [wacky thing]” got a big eyeroll.

 

Did he adlib his lines? I know that’s sort of his thing in these movies but I haven’t seen him in anything else

 

I have to tell people “yo, shut the fuck up” like 40% of the time I go to the theaters. I do have a three strike rule though. It’s actually satisfying for two reasons 1. I’ve yet to have had a confrontation and they obey 2. I’m pretty sure you become the favorite person in that theater lol.

 

This is a movie about how a kid who wants to murder his abuser is wrong, and the people telling him he's wrong kill roughly eight million people in their pursuit of doing so with no meta acknowledgement at all in a movie that loves pointing out that it's a movie. There were entertaining gags, particularly visually (the orchestrating of Domino's action scenes illustrating her "luck" superpower were very clever), but any work that thinks it's way more clever than it's actually being is tough to land for me.

Rob Delaney is a delight, though.

 

The Deadpool franchise could spawn infinite sequels because, if the audience around me was any indication, people will go absolutely apeshit with laughter any time a Marvel character references Batman.

 

That whole thing with going back in time to stop a killer as a kid reminded me of Looper

 

There was no implication that he would face any retribution for decades of torturing children he deemed inferior
