They were both insufferable. But I left Deadpool 1 thinking "wow, people like this? They must be dumb." And I left Deadpool 2 thinking "that was not as insufferable as I was expecting it to be."

[The Argonaut]

I just read my old posts about Deadpool and apparently all of what I just wrote is a lie. Don't pay attention to anything I say

After your West Side Story takes, I promise I won't be listening to a thing you say. About movies.

Ryan Reynolds sucks in pretty much everything, especially Deadpool.

[tree_]

if you were a ryan reynolds fan and find him hilarious, i can see why you love deadpool.. but for ppl like you and me, tommy, it just doesn't work

[epilogue]

I have no issue with Ryan Reynolds.

I have never seen Deadpool.

[VinylGuy]

both of those deadpool movies sucked but the second one had Zazie Beetz so it was better.

This one...just looks so...derivative of so goddamn movies and it seems to be trying so hard....well see i guess.

[Stickman]

This looks fun!

hmm, wonder who funded this picture....

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I only saw Deadpool 2. Ryan Reynolds sucks and Deadpool sucks, but I liked the other characters.

For a movie set in Japan there didn’t seem to be a lot of Japanese people. I assumed assassins would you know blend in.

why would anyone watch 45 minutes of Deadpool 1 and think "Sure I'll try the sequel"?

This is a fair question. I guess I always like watching the major Hollywood releases in addition to the other artsy, obscure shit I like. I enjoy participating in the discourse, and there's usually at least one or two things I enjoy in even the worst of these movies

[The Argonaut]

For me, it's because I have one dumb friend that I don't say no to about movies because he asks me to do a lot of other dumb shit that I do say no to

[lennytheweedwhacker]

We should take the Deadpool challenge and watch each movie back to back 5 times in one day.

[VinylGuy]

i the case of deadpool 2 for me was Zazie Betz.

Is that a flapper?

[VinylGuy]

you lost me

[lennytheweedwhacker]

you lost me

It sounds like a flapper name. Also, I grew up in NYC in the 1920s.

Filmmaking doesn't look all that special (just another Adrian Lyne thing) but sure I'll watch Ana De Armas be an unhinged Jezebel for 2 hours, why not
