Dead Pool 2 was insufferable. Don't let trailers fool you. This doesn't even look good really. It's just the same phony edginess and violence that many R-rated movies have these days.
Yea, after Dead Pool 2 I'm too indifferent to even pirate it.
That is fantastic how have I never seen that before lmao. 100% true across the board.
Auralnauts is hilarious. Behold, Ahsohka 1986 and Ice Ice Matrix.
Borderline experimental
Let’s see if people get bamboozled by Marvel again. Main villain looks to be Cassandra Nova (not really human but all up for genoside.) Has to shit on Wolverine from Fox, though. Loads of language and references of booger sugar so not for all audiences.
That wasn't the point of Genosha, she did it because she hates Xavier and wanted to torture him however possible. While this included wiping out as many mutants as possible and at the time was thought to include Magneto, her other actions showed anything that would screw over Xavier would also suffice.
She publicly outed him as a mutant while possessing his body. She brought the Shi'ar empire to ruin. She tortured the X-Men in various ways like with turning Beast feral.
She only wiped out Genosha because it was there and would hurt Xavier, psychically and emotionally, not because she specifically wanted to commit genocide and kill 16 and a half million mutants.
The villain is being played by a pronouns in the bio person, if that kind of thing affects what you spend your money on.
Makes sense for the pronouner. The character she is playing is an extra-planar being hellbent on creating chaos and committing genocide.
Not really. Cassandra Nova has always been a female personality despite her mummudrai status as a psychic parasite of Professor X with all of his powers and potential powers because she copied his dna while still in the womb. The fact Xavier killed her before she was born didn't stop her because of the aforementioned dna fuckery of an extremely powerful psychic.
Instead this basically instilled an instinctive hatred, and/or fear of mutants depending which comics you read, which was why her very first appearance in the comics in the New X-Men series involved her mind controlling one of Bolivar Trask's relatives to the Wild Sentinel factory and then aiming it at Genosha, resulting in the deaths of around 16.5 million mutants in minutes. Even with such a high kill count of mutants Nova doesn't actually care about humans, she just wants to ruin Xavier any way she can out of revenge hence outing him as a mutant when possessing him on live TV, crashing the Shi'ar empire, and tormenting the X-Men however possible.
While this was done in part for establishing the danger that Nova posed the other reason for it was to return mutants to the status quo of being a small number of persecuted individuals rather than an entire nation, something stupidly happening again right now in the X-men comics with the fall of the island nation of Krakoa.
Other times such returns to the status quo have happened are M Day when Wanda reduced the mutant population to around 198 mutants after uttering "No more mutants" and rewriting reality to match. The problem is many readers are bored of this after having read it so many times now but Marvel doesn't take heed of the criticisms and instead keeps redoing previously popular stories that were only successful because it was something new.
Regardless of that, the point is that Cassandra Nova has always been female, extra planar psychic parasite status or not. Given modern Marvel it won't be a surprise this adaptation will ignore various concepts of the original character seeing as how quite a few later comics also did the same.
About the only good follow-up to Nova was the "What if?" that resulted in Nova joining with Emma Frost in an attempt to become the Phoenix because it ended with Emma/Nova literally having her heart pulled out of her chest by Kitty.
I wish they would take the Deadpool character seriously and do a real villain like Black Tom Cassidy. But that ship sailed after movie 1 I guess.
That is what I was thinking, I may actually see this in theatres with friends, kind of like what super hero movies were made for. I'll reserve some judgment until it is out and see if there is any hoodwinking going on, but I think so far it looks like a fun super hero movie with minimal yas girlboss/dei people in it, and actual fun messaging and jokes.
Looks generic and shitty, complete with a heaping serving of the multiverse, the thing everyone was already sick of.
This might turn out to be good....but it won't save Marvel. Even if it does extraordinarily well in the box office, the management at Disney won't learn the lessons required to not stop losing money.
They’ll learn that this movie will make money and the next movie needs to be Lady Deadpool played by Margot Robbie.
Cute.
Still not gonna watch it in theaters, though.
