Deadpool

Was it a helicarrier that they were fighting on at the end?

My brother thought so and it does look prettyyyyyy similar.

It was a helicarrier. Of course since the MCU and the Fox-verse Marvel films are from different companies I doubt they'll officially confirm that.

I actually thought it was a set from one of the Avengers films at first.

I also noticed that they seemed to relish saying mutant and mutate as much as reasonably possible.

Yeah, I noticed that too. That's a hallmark of the X-Men films, isn't it?

Did they ever call anyone a "mutate"? they just seemed to use mutant for any and everyone

No, mutate is a verb. As in, get in the fucking pod Wade so you'll mutate.

Dopants: He meant what he said and he said what he meant, a Ninety is faithful 100%.

Yeah but in the comics he is a Mutate. I thought you meant mutate like his power classification in the comics.

I thought it was a regular aircraft carrier.

There's turbines on the side

And it doesn't look like any real-world carrier of its size.

It would be weird if they were fighting on a helicarrier, considering they are owned by Marvel Studios.

I thought it was great that the film gave Bob had a part. Hope he shows up next film.

Holy shit I think Deadpool might've said something about one of the next films(unless it was a joke that only comic readers were supposed to get unlike the Bob joke that worked without knowing about the Agent). Magik/Illyana exists in the new Fo X-Men verse?

Also movie of the year thus far.

Also totally a helicarrier. Only thing different was that it was already crashed and different jets.

Deadpool did tell Colossus to "go be a big brother" or it could have been "go be a Big Brother," i.e. referring to the organization. In either case, I really do hope that Magik appears in New Mutants.

Crow: There's a plot?

I loved the movie. I was laughing so hard. I don't think there was a moment that was too down on jokes.

Like, early on, I didn't like how they kept cutting from the Origin story to the freeway fight scene, but it made sense since his Origin story would be pretty dark and depressing on its own to just shift into balls off the wall comedy for the rest of the film. They did that for tonal consistency.

As much as I loved Deadpool, I felt like everyone else needed more screen time to feel more developed as characters. They have some great material but we don't get much of Deadpool's roommate and his lover could have used some more screen time during the 'Present Day' portions.

I will say, if there's anything I NEED for the sequel, I want Deadpool just to be a tad gayer/pansexual. Those parts of the film were delicious.

I admit to thinking that being strapped into the chamber thing was going to somehow give Vanessa powers also (like her comics counterpart) but it was not to be. This was all about Deadpool the character, his supporting cast will presumably shine more in the sequels. We need more Blind Al! And TJ Miller playing it straight (relatively) was something I'd like to see more of. Comics-Weasel is a bit more sneaky and independent than we've seen movie Weasel be so far...

"These 'no-nonsense' solutions of yours just don't hold water in a complex world of jet-powered apes and time travel."

I'm guessing that's either the original Avengers Helicarrier or one of the ones from Project Insight.

Either way saw it, loved it, laughed tons, even if some of the humor was a bit too much.

That is the face of a man who just ate a kitten. Raw.

It caught me from the first line of the opening credits til the end of the ending ones. I've never in my life laughed at the former before in any movie. Not once. I giggled at these ones uproariously, embarrassed at first before I realized that almost everyone else in the Imax cinema (which was packed btw) was doing the same. Mind you, I'm Scottish - and our sense of humour can be gauged by the simple knowledge we eat sheep's stomachs filled with offal and we like it.

And to think I went in expecting to be disappointed by it not living up to the pre-release hype. I was never so glad to be proven wrong.

So I went to see it with my sister, so needless to say the nudity and sex made me a bit awkward. She never brought it up, thank the lord.

Good movie, but I feel like the comedy needed to be wackier. We needed more jokes like the skating rink, because that was where the gold was.

8/10 overall.

How was Bob named in the credits? I realized afterword that I didn't check because I was talking with my sister.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

He's just Bob.

Aw, missed joke opportunity there.

Also, I'd totally be down for Kiera Knightley being Cable.

Personally speaking, I think having WWE's Kane as Cable would be a good choice.

Fun movie. Would buy the blu-ray and watch it multiple times. Haven't had a good marvel movie like this from FOX since... I can't even remember

Slight peeve: I was hoping Death would make an appearance

Death is likely off limits.
