Hey My Mom's Basement listeners, you can find our episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube, and Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Hello and welcome back to My Mom's Basement and a very special Deadpool and Wolverine recap edition of My Mom's Basement. I'm Bub Fox, with me is Adam Anticlem, and we are here to recap the movie. We saw it early, we were lucky enough to go to the premiere on Monday. We're recording this on Wednesday. It'll be out on Thursday. Clem, we finally did it. We finally saw Deadpool and Wolverine and dare I say it lived up to the hype. Yeah, it's crazy to think about when they first announced the movie. Remember the ad with Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds and we're just like, what the fuck? And they're making all the jokes, the meta stuff. And you just tell their buddies and we're like, oh man,

this is going to be so awesome. Whenever a new Deadpool, like they do great job with advertising, but anytime there's a new Deadpool announced, there's just so much fun stuff. And to think we got from that moment to this moment, along with like all the lowlights of the MCU that took place in that timeline, it was like, all right, we need to hit to hit and again the only other time we had an early screener was quantumania and we're like please don't be because if this quantumania was a blip a big blip

but it was a legit blip for sure not a thanos kind of blip but like it was a bump in the road this would have been like a sinkhole and the car just goes down into the sinkhole if it wasn't good but it was how do i even say this was it great i think it was great it was great for what it was i'm not gonna say it's like this great i don't think it's an iconic movie that's like you know we're not gonna compare it to the the cream of the crop but it was great for exactly. It was exactly what I hoped for as a fan and exactly what the MCU needed. Right? Yeah. And some people asked right away, what's the ball scale rating on it?

And I have like two ball scale ratings. If I'm judging it as a movie, I would say four balls. If I'm judging it as an MCU movie, especially at this point in time, I would say 4.5 balls. You know, it's like a bit of a different scale for me where it's like, yeah, I wouldn't put this up against Casino and Goodfellas. Like it's not that movie, but I would put it probably, we talked about like our top 10, top 15 Marvel movies. I think it's in that range. Yeah, that's what I said. Is Deadpool in your top 10?

And you said, I think about top 15. And I do think it's a very unique thing with Deadpool. He's graded on a curve because he's going to have the jokes. And I think people, because I've been seeing the reviews coming out, there's some people who really don't like it, which I think is crazy.

If you don't like it, I imagine you're just not into the the movies or the comic book stuff as much as the rest of us which hey that's fine but for those of us as i say this dressed as wolverine right now clearly i do not fall into that bucket uh those of us in the other bucket however it's like there's gonna be fan service it's gonna be over the top but he's like he's like it's a wink as well he's like that's what deadpool does he breaks the fourth wall and i always think deadpool you almost have to grade on two scales and i give like like a deadpool one or two i think we were saying like i was we were talking to ken jack before the movie i i can like be like that's an awesome deadpool movie i also can't re-watch it like a hundred times like i could do with endgame it's just that's an awesome Deadpool movie I also can't rewatch it like a hundred times

like I could do with Endgame it's just that's the way the movies are and sometimes the jokes like alright the 18th time you're called a douche nozzle I've had enough of this but other than that like this was everything you know we were really hoping for and again I don't know on the ball scale

it's like at the moment your first viewing it's like the Deadpool me and Eddie do this with ball scale. It's like at the moment you're first viewing, it's like the dead pool of me and Eddie do this with the snack boys. It's like, if I'm grading Doritos, I could drink Doritos on a Dorito scale, which has a different level than just any chip. Cause Doritos usually is going to have bangers,

right? They only release bangers. So if I'm going ball scale, I'd probably go like four, seven for the dead pool scale. But like on an MCU movie movie it's probably like a four three i don't there's not as much connective tissue i don't think this movie's gonna um affect a lot of stuff down the road right i think there will be some stuff that might you know pop

up yeah but it's like it was more standalone we said it was kind of going to be the end game for the fox movies and at some point they have to kind of be like, they have to flush that and then move to the next one, recast and redo those characters. And I think it did a great job honoring them, having fun with it, Disney-fying them and giving us like, it was legitimately like the Royal Rumble.

Like after the first cameo, we're just like, and we see who's coming out. We're like, holy shit, that's fucking Wesley Stimes. And it was, I'm that it was so much fun the theater was going electric the theater was going crazy it was an electric scene and i would hope that it's going to be like that um opening weekend you're going obviously so you're gonna have the dog night yeah imagine if like a

dog like dogs knew it was up and there's, they see like, you know, Jennifer Garner on screen, like it's a lecture. So I think it's like, it's an event it's for comic book fans. And it's like, I'm not gonna non comic book fans.

If they want to review it one way, they can just like non comic book directors can make their own movie. It's going to suck. It's not going to be, we're not going to like those movies. And the people who review them, aren't going to like it is what it is i fucking loved it it was everything we were hoping for and like our boy matthew vaughn he said he said this will like now this is the thing i think it like gives the mcu a big fucking win i said it's like when your nfl team has been

struggling you know they they did get a big guardians three win along the way but it's like they've lost four or five games and you're shit, this might just be like a lost season. We're starting to think about tanking. Maybe we get a new quarterback. And then they go out and put a 50-burger up, and you're like, all right, I'm in. Short-term, long-term, I feel good. And now it's like I know Feige and the team can get to these levels again.

It's just they're not going to have 20 years' worth of, like, back catalog stuff to really play the hits on us. So I said this before the pod. I said the Trustafyge sign is not on right now. It's on the wall still. But after Deadpool 3, it's now plugged in. I've plugged it in. And I'll let you know when I pull the little string and Trustafyge is blaring and it's lit up.

However, the Agatha show could put a little dent in it, but I'm already kind of going and being like, that's going to be right. 2025 is their year. Captain America, Fantastic Four, stuff like that. That's the big stuff coming. Yeah. I think Deadpool 3, I said afterwards, is my favorite Deadpool movie. And afterwards also, we were standing in line for the bathroom.

We had two crazy people in the bathroom one kid that like caught us in line and then I think felt bad about cutting us so he was like literally doing a pee pee dance in front of us what's going on here and then someone else walks in I called him comic book guy because he went

was it just me or was that terrible I was going to write my review tomorrow but I'm just going to get it over with tonight and everyone on the line seemed thrilled with the movie that we got and nobody responded to the guy it was just he said that out loud and everyone just kept looking at their phones it's kind of a sad scene but yeah everything you said about grading it on a scale and also you it's hard to take this and say like Marvel's fully back because we don't fully like know that yet. Like you said, there's some projects that are still in the like Pearl Mudder era or whatever. He just sold off all of his Disney shares.

So he's gone. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. I liked the acknowledgement that in this movie that the Marvel Universe is at a low point. The line where he's like, we were kind of joining at a low point right now. Like that hit so hard. The theater thought it was so funny. And that self-awareness, which is the stuff we expect from Deadpool, I think speaks to Feige's self-awareness. The fact that they're putting that out there and they're OK with him saying shit like that.

I mean, there's a lot of shit that he says in this movie that i was like i can't believe they're okay with them saying that this was rated r like they did not pull a single punch nope uh someone's like can i take my kids to it and i'm like you can like but they're like oh they they like deadpool one or two like oh then you're fine but like you have to know what deadpool is before you take her to see a deadpool movie i mean i by seeing's friend he's you know 10 years old he loves one and two i wouldn't have said take your kids to it but now that they've already you know gone the deadpool route that's fine uh and no sex so it doesn't get too great i guess actually deadpool one does have the uh holiday scene or the you know so that's a little different but yeah i i don't know how

you could not like come away from this just with a big goofy smile on your face and it showed two things one like now we have that has a disney war chest behind it so they're gonna you know make it good feige's there and they're good they can have fun with themselves because that is something that's like you could have a hard-o who's just like no it can't be like this that's the one thing about barstool is look make fun of make fun of ourselves you have to be a little self-deprecating dave will take it on the chin usually i remember i always spot talking about this kfc was at a meds game once and i was like dude i gotta blog you because your camera's going he's like make fun of me as much as you want like take the gloves off because

that's what makes you laugh and the fact they can laugh at it and i know this is such like this is part of the evil marvel era to a lot of people but like like the She-Hulk Kevin robot was fucking funny. And if you don't think that was funny, I don't want to tell you, because they at least were like, and everything played out exactly the way that they said it in that show with the secret invasion stuff too.

So I feel like there is a way to move forward here. And I feel very, I feel more confident than I did before going in that we could be on the right path here. Absolutely.

Just the fact that that is a sentence. You could go meet Deadpool at Disney with half the shit that he says and does in this movie. What a world we're living in right now. It's almost to the level of like someone asked Kevin Feige recently, do you think ever we'll see DC and Marvel collaborate on a movie and do a crossover movie? And he was like, I don't know. He's like, never say never. i don't think it's going to be anytime soon but that would be cool he's like i've thought about it this sort of stuff makes me realize that's probably just going to happen in our lifetimes like in it might take 20 years but in 20 years we might be watching batman beating a

pulp out of fucking captain america or something and like why wouldn't you like if that was like a hollowed ground of the comics where they're like you can't do that you know has to stay between party lines i don't understand the comics do it so it's like what the fuck wouldn't the movies do it you can always figure out money and everything else along the way we've seen them do it with sony at a different level so it's like that would be i mean and it's better it ends up being better for everyone just like when you would see ecw fighters going with the wwe guys and you're like holy shit that's the same kind of thing and everyone can make their money and i do think that having gun on the other side of the equation does help like there's someone who's you have great

relationship with going into it so oh yeah that'd be cool oh so speaking of what feige said just real quick because i didn't hit it on at the top did you say this was an eight in terms of like the future impact of uh the mcu with end game being a 10 i thought about that and uh it's it's hard to call it an eight because like you said i don't know how much this is gonna affect what goes forward if he if this hugh jackman and deadpool are like two of the stars of secret wars maybe Maybe. Yeah. But like, I don't know, walking away, I didn't feel, yeah, it felt more like you're closing the door on the Fox universe, introing Deadpool and Wolverine to the MCU, more than it did like,

this is, oh my God, the MCU has changed forever now. Yeah, exactly. Now, I felt the same way, but again, he has the, maybe the whiteboard is up. Maybe he knows more about what's what's happening in the future they'll have hugh jackman doing it till he's 90 we heard that a couple times till he's 90 um let's get into the movie itself all those lines about disney you got the fact check from disney till you're 90 till you're 90 it's so. We open up with an awesome sequence of Wade Wilson, Deadpool, digging up Wolverine's grave from Logan,

which really worked out perfect for us doing a Logan recap into the Deadpool and Wolverine movie. I think they referenced Logan more than they referenced any other Fox movie in this. It's great. Yeah, as if we didn't desecrate Logan's remains enough by saying we didn't love the movie as much as other people did. Ryan Reynolds took it. And listen, there were people walking into that theater who are at this point

you've already watched it. So people will be walking into the theater with their pearls clutched being like they better not fucking ruin his legacy or his name or whatever. And then he just straight up fucks his skull, basically. Does everything but fuck Wolverine's skull. It was absolutely incredible.

And, like, let's also be honest. The fucking music was great. Bye, bye, bye. Ryan Reynolds had the moves. You know, he was doing that in his fucking Canadian apartment back when NSYNC was out. Just absolutely just incredible shit. And I was like, holy fuck.

Like, the first time just dumb luck in the basement. We happened to just nail that one right before it happened. Deadpool is now three for three in their movie intros, their credit sequences. Oh my god, it's almost James Bond like at this point where it's so good you look forward to it as like an

attraction of the movie. This one being set to bye bye bye, him doing the fucking dances and him using the adamantium skeleton of wolverine and all of his bones as a weapon to kill the tva who was after him whatever it took literally like five minutes for me to turn to clem in the movie and just go metal and he gave it right back i think you knew what i was going to say when i tapped you on the shoulder i there like the the fact that they're like hey you knew what I was going to say when I tapped you on the shoulder. The fact that they're like, hey, that's where we're going to throw the names of the cast is on Wolverine's bones as they're being thrown into TV agents like gullets and shit.

Just gnarly stuff. And then, I mean, come on. Let's be honest. Trust tree, basement's always a trust tree. If you ever saw like saw wolverine skull there and you i think most of us wouldn't do anything with it you see a dead body you know let the let him rest in peace but there's a party it's like what if i just strapped on those claws and got the feel and he goes and we got the shink out of him too or he's i don't know how the fuck

he set it up with the little twigs or whatever and i was like oh that is incredible so it was perfect and again it's like listen if you're gonna be mad about this whole logan thing you could be mad just know i do not give a fuck we're gonna have fun with it it's supposed to be fun people for all this crying and bitching about who's the mcu back this and that that we've already done these are that's and that's what i said to my like spoiler for your spoiler for your review these are supposed's and that's what i said to my like spoiler for your spoiler for your review these are supposed to be fun you're supposed to have those oh fuck moments and just have fun we're not supposed to be like criticizing every little thing we do that sometimes on the pod because we're just trying to you know pick apart stuff and be fair

but oh man that was fucking incredible what an incredible thing the rib bones are flying off and then of course their rib bones the the skull and vertebrae, like a ball and chain. He's like swinging the skull around by the vertebrae. Oh my God. Like you said, when he fucking hits the claws, it's just like, and so many scenes out of this movie, we'll point out a couple later, I'm sure, felt like they said, let's try to frame this and almost freeze frame or slow motion in the moment where it could look like a comic book panel like they had it seemed like more of a focus on that this time than even

the previous two deadpool movies which i loved i thought like this movie got shit on a lot by like film snobs on instagram who you know would watch the trailer and they'd be like the color grading is horrible marvel's ruined this movie looked fucking awesome for a lot of it there's a few wonky cgi moments and a few wonky lighting things whatever for the most part this movie looked incredible like it was literally a comic book i know i say that about a lot of stuff but like more so than a lot of previous projects yeah and i wonder if that's a thing that like feige or someone at marvel is like, we're looking to do this more. We're trying to because we said that about some of the movies recently.

Like that is even the X-Men 97. Like that is straight out of a comic book. You could just see that. Obviously, the Guardians did it so well. Guardians did it well. Yep. Yep. And then we get a flashback to 2018.

Like the Deadpool movies, they kind of jump around the timeline a little bit, especially to start. And we see him trying out for the Avengers. He has an interview with Happy Hogan. First cameo of the movie. Get Jon Favreau. Very funny scene. And just getting Favreau, he's like the OG Marvel guy. It felt like he was the guy to welcome Ryan Reynolds in that moment to the universe.

He's like interviewing him to get a role role there right yeah yeah it felt great and it felt great just happy has always you know he's tony's friend and he takes some lumps along the way but he always carry he's carrying himself and it's like and then deadpool just takes his swords and cuts them down but it's like you're a chauffeur you're picking him up from school, essentially. What are you talking about? What's your superpower? Parallel parking? So funny. And Favreau, he plays happy so well. I want happy to appear in pretty much every MCU project.

I know we say that about like Wong, but I just want to get a couple times a year, a little update on what happy Hogan's up to. Yeah. And I don't, I didn't think there was a chance in hell Robert Downey Jr. was was going to show up there but if he did and they had the picture of him in the background which they kind of focused on a couple times and they just say him and you don't have to really even say the big man right yeah so that was very cool i thought there was

a chance during this scene feige was going to just walk out and they're going to be like oh yeah not right now or something like that then we go go post Deadpool 2. Wade is a car salesman with his friend Peter in Earth 1005 and he takes him to a little surprise birthday party. Peter takes Deadpool home and all the characters from the Deadpool franchise are there. This is most of what we saw in the trailer where the TVA comes and they interrupt the party. They take him in and everything. I think one of these TVA agents could have been Rob McElhenney. Not positive.

He was making a cameo. He's in the credits and everything. I think it would be kind of funny if he were the one that Deadpool was like, like you, I want to look in your eyes or something. You're staring at me all lovingly, whatever he said to that guy. But it's nice seeing all the all the old Deadpool 2 characters characters we didn't get a ton of them in this movie i know we talked about like wanting some of them we got enough blind hal or blind al for my liking maybe not enough dope ender but the rest of them is we got enough here i needed more yukio yukio yeah you love yukio he did have his mom was like i i'm so sorry you had to see that yukio you had experienced yeah so i love that um uh there was one other character i thought they

could have done more with but we'll get to that at the end of it uh but the the jokes like it was like you say like you said it was a lot of stuff we saw on the trailer but there was a few jokes they even kept in the holster that were you know pretty r-rated along the way and again you're hitting the cocaine jokes you're hitting the pegging jokes and i bet like do they still do commentaries i know used to be dvd commentaries i imagine commentaries probably live somewhere on the in the digital sphere uh that he'll be like that was rob mccall haney or something like that we'll be we'll be blogging that in like six months from now i bet so when the tv interrupts and they bring wade in we meet paradox played by matthew mcfaden aka tom from succession tells him about logan tells him about

the mcu lets him watch you know on the tva screens a bunch of mcu moments captain america moments like iconic stuff he sees a quick shot of thor holding him crying which is a running joke throughout the movie i thought we were going to get hemsworth by the end of the movie i was surprised that we didn't were you oh i was shocked what do we call that bob what's the literary device that is do you know the chekhov's mjolnir no close i like that a red herring that was a red herring yeah waiting for you like the movie can't be over we haven't gotten the thor scene and i was all ready to be like they got us with it and then i saw a theory that we might get that in secret wars secret wars fucking good it'd be good and that's the thing about deadpool that is now like again ryan reynolds definitely has a whiteboard with all his shit or some sort of a

thing and like running bits or things that we have to tie up that is like top three if not number one right now it's like the thor deadpool scene where he's crying his eyes out over him who was playing thor in that shot too i don't know did you tell who the actor was because i'm like i'm like wait a second is hemsworth are they getting him they're like no that came so i i i'm gonna actually i wasn't gonna go re-watch it like Like I wasn't going to go to the theater ASAP, but I think I want to be in a theater and hear the reactions to everything. So when I go, I'll try to figure it out unless, you know, someone leaks it online.

Cause I didn't even pay attention during the credits. Cause obviously there's other stuff going on. Yeah. I'm in that weird spot where I saw it on Monday. Today's Wednesday. We're recording it. I'm supposed to take my dog to see it. The dog pool screening hosted by dog pool. I think there's a chance my dog is not going to love it. So if she like, not that she doesn't love the movie, she'll love the movie, but just the loud noises, you know,

faith is more of a DC girl. Yeah. More of a Batman girl. But I'm like, I don't know if I take her out. I'll probably go see it on Thursday or Friday night with my girlfriend. Cause she'll want to see it. If we just get through the whole movie, I'm going to have to tell my girlfriend, like, I think I'm going to have to see this for the third time this week. Cause I want the opening night reaction. I want to be there for it. We got a little bit of it in our theater. There were a few like, the press screening, but people still had moments where they popped and they were like girls sitting behind us. They were like, they were coming in their pants when a certain character that we'll get to came on screen um but paradox great great character i said you could have had francis play him and the movie

wouldn't have lost any points just the sense of humor some of the like cadence in which he would make these jokes i felt it was very francis-esque and he tells him that logan in deadpool's universe logan is the prime being prime something prime hero prime being some shit like that um and basically because he's dead the world is now collapsing in on itself i don't know how that timeline really works with this with logan being in 2049 and deadpool being in 2018 and that stuff i'm gonna try not to think about it too much but the whole point of this scene is like hey your universe is about to go in maybe you need to find like a new wolf or he refuses to believe that wolverine's dead then you get the flashback of him trying to find a new wolverine yeah i saw some

people picking apart you know people who have seen it picking apart you know there's logan's here there now they're at the end of it there's this many heroes there they're not in their universe what does that mean i'm kind of just suspending disbelief or whatever this the thing is here just like an end game it's like they're just like yeah that's not how it works this is how it works for this movie basically so it's like that's all is good let's just get this shit just lumped together uh tom from succession i was always i was obviously the actor's awesome and i was always very interested to see why they cast him other than the fact that he just crushed in succession and he does play that guy who has the power in his world to the people below him but he is kind of insignificant to the people above him and that is where he stands on

the org chart as we find out throughout the thing uh hearing it always fucks me up when hearing these guys in an english accent when you've heard them yeah the first time i heard uh tom holland i'm like you motherfucker you lied to me spider-man you lied to me he does the queen's accent too he like sounds like a kid from new york um but this montage where he goes and tries to meet a bunch of Wolverines is where the movie starts to feel like the movie that it was promised to be, you know, Royal Rumble-esque in the fan service-y Rick Dalton point at the screen and oh my God moments.

He needs a short Wolverine first, comic accurate height Wolverine, which was so funny when he steps down from the stool and he's just this little guy. He meets Patch, who I know people were stoked to see. He meets one that's in the classic Wolverine outfit, the orange Wolverine outfit, and he fights the Hulk in this scene. Did we see Mark Ruffalo's face at any point? Because some people were saying Mark Ruffalo cameoed as the Hulk. I thought it was more of a Henry Cavill in Shazam, where it's like, it's clearly a body double in the suit.

I thought there wasn't Ruffalo. I was trying to, that's something I'll have to watch again, because I was thinking the same, like, is that him? Holy shit. Well, it might have been him. Yeah. And then when you get him, you're like, all right. So now like the cameo, the roof is blown off about who can appear.

And, you know, they don't give a fuck about about money so i was really interested to see how that was gonna go you get the crucified wolverine from the classic x you know crucified comic cover which you were inspired to buy that instantly i went home and i've been thinking about getting like probably like this 10 x-men comics that have like classic covers that I grew up loving. Some I might've had at some point and just lost. And that, and when I saw that with all the skulls, which was such a gnarly fucking visual,

I went home and just like, just started looking. I was like, all right, I'm just doing it. And I spent a hundred dollars on a bunch of comic books that I'll probably, honestly, I'd say read,

read, we'll read once and never read again i'm probably not even gonna crack it i'm just gonna keep it you want to cover it i'm gonna put it somewhere on display like all my comics together i don't want to like trigger jose and be like i'm never gonna read them here but that's probably what's gonna happen and i don't feel bad about it one bit because that and that's when i was like all right this is being done by people who not only care about this shit, but fucking love it. And it just has a special place in their soul.

And that's when I'm just like, let's just have fun. Like at that point, that's when the roller coaster, we've talked about how the roller coaster, we were just cruising. You're going like 80 miles per hour. You're just like having a blast, screaming your lungs out and excitement. When I saw that cover, I was like,

this movie basically cannot fuck up at this point. It got me that moment, which I just love. It's like, you're just looking at me like, what the fuck? If you don't know that cover, you're like, what the fuck was that about right there? And I also loved the comic, uh, accurate Wolverine. Cause if I have to hear one more time about how Wolverine needs to be like a, a short King, it's like, if you guys want that, go for it. I think it's going to suck, but Hey, I could be wrong.

No offense to the littles out there. And then they put a huge exclamation point on the scene with the final wolverine being henry cavill as wolverine he turns around he's working on a bike he's got the cigar and and deadpool is immediately like henry cavill he's like i think i speak for everyone when i say this just feels right like those other shit bags down the street he just starts talking shit like that such a crazy unbelievable can't believe that didn't get leaked cameo and i said to you afterwards we heard some whispers from like leakers and scoopers that the first post-credit scene for deadpool and wolverine was going to be like kind of played as a joke but they could go forward with this as an idea if they wanted to and they

couldn't believe it hadn't leaked was there a chance that this was ever a post-credit scene for dead bull and wolverine i don't know i think there's a chance you raised that point i think it's a i could definitely see how they would fit it into or kind of like we did with the real post-credit scene it's nothing that is advancing anything but it would have been like and then you know huh is that gonna mean anything down the road here and they could pop it in there or they could pop it in in the montage which they obviously ended up doing and that at that point too must be so good to be ryan reynolds so you're like i'm filthy rich i the guys who like are my new bosses for this movie deadpool obviously fighting in them obviously love him and i can kind of just do and say anything i

want to say that. Let's be honest. Like, Hey, you know, you know, you know, this as well as a blogger. If you play something that you think is going to be good,

that's great. If you write something or make some content, if you make something that makes the commenters happy, you know, it's going to just be sucking your dick at the end of it. So when he said that kind of stuff, he knows he's getting all those people on his dick and a good for him. Guy has it all right now.

Ryan fucking Reynolds. And we'll see if, you know, this week is San Diego Comic-Con. There might be an announcement like, yeah, Henry Cavill's just Wolverine. Or they might clear up and be like, you know what? He was Wolverine in that. We could revisit the Varian in Secret Wars or something, but we're still looking. Who knows? And I'm sure next week we'll have a lot of hall h marvel news to break

down because we're expecting this to be a pretty big year for announcements um and then they realize when he meets the the worst wolverine the one that we actually spend the movie with the one with the yellow suit he brings him back to the tva paradox is laughing in his face he's like you got the fucking worst wolverine in the world tells him about the time ripper cutting off timelines he's building this machine and deadpool realizes this branch of the tva has basically gone rogue he's like oh wait a minute what the fuck he's like you don't have the approval of so and so and so and so and as soon as he starts criticizing for that they get pruned to the void and then you get that huge fight scene from all of the trailers Deadpool versus Wolverine and it is awesome like the action Deadpool says right before and he's

like prepare to get your mind blown this shit's about to be and then he just fucking starts going there was like a moment or two where I thought the CGI looked off nothing that took me out of the movie and they get interrupted during this Nothing that took me out of the movie. And they get interrupted during this. But what did you think of the actual fight scene itself? I had fun. All the fight scenes, when you're dealing with two guys that are regenerative, it's like at some point it's just a zero-sum game.

You know, so it's like, let's just have fun. And I'm not a diehard fight scene guy where it's just beat them up, whatever. There could be cool moments. I think this is kind of the same with lightsabers as well. So when they're going at it, I'm having fun. And it's kind of like with chases too. I'm not a die-hard chase person. Let everyone have their fun.

This is something people have been dreaming of forever. I also appreciate they gave Deadpool the adamantium swords because, you know, that would have been the first thing people would be running to the message board and complaining about is how he's fighting Wolverine and holding his own against Wolverine's adamantium. It's been hinted at or teased at or prayed for forever. We got it.

That's the thing. There's two things about this movie. I think there was a couple times where the fight scenes, we kept getting the repetitive Wolverine-Deadpool stuff. Some of the jokes, it's jokey. It's a Deadpool movie, so i have to say that's how it is so i would have probably maybe been like i could use a little less of it i again i have to just let the man cook let him do what he does i want to say like 80 of the jokes landed for me

i would say there's a good 20 that didn't none of them were like too cringeworthy where i was like but like some of them i was just like yeah you didn't need that one yeah oh but the one joke that did land for me that i kind of skipped over when he gets the new suit that guy that just keeps staring at him and only like the eyes that joke landed every time that guy was on screen perfect every time right to the end to the music play it was it was perfect the whole and the marvel jesus thing i appreciate it as well very funny yeah like let's be honest people kind of were starting to look at deadpool as marvel jesus heading into this movie because it's like dude you got to save us we have calise running around the track right now we need just to get back on track i do think if x-men 97 hadn't

come out it and guardians came out maybe a year earlier and there had been a long time for a win yeah mcu this would have felt even more important. But I think that, at least for me personally, that has kind of relieved the pressure, hit the pressure valve a little bit. And I wasn't as make or break, basically. But it felt pretty fucking close, right? Yeah. And this fight gets interrupted by someone who sounds a lot like Captain America. And I didn't even put it together.

When he first says his first line, he's hooded. He's got a blue outfit on, but it took me a second. And then I was like, wait a minute. Is this, is this what I think it is? He takes the hood off. You got a Mad Max type Calvary coming towards them. And they acknowledge that they're like, this is just out of Mad Max or whatever.

And you realize as he's building up, you know, that everyone surrounds him and he's like, oh, he's going to say it. He's going to say the thing. He's going to say the thing. I realize what's happening and I tap Clem on the shoulder. I don't even know if you processed what I was saying in the moment, but he says flame on instead of saying Avengers assemble. This is not Captain America. This is Chris Evans reprising his role from Fantastic Four's Johnny Storm. Something that has been teased for years.

I made a TikTok about this in 2022 where I was like, he says it would be an easier to sell to get him in as Human Torch than Captain America again. Oh, my God. The fact that this happened, the fact that it happened so early in the movie and the fact that he was kind of a character in the movie, he doesn't have a ton of screen time, five, 10 minutes or whatever, but he's referenced enough and stuff like that.

This was, this was a cap cap guy's dream right here. I was losing it. This was amazing. Pyro coming in, sucking the fire out of him. And then the saber tooth fight in the same moment where they just run at each other.

Wolverine slices his fucking head off. Deadpool's like this is the head of your queen like that whole sequence was just this was fun this was the kind of shit you go to the movies to watch yeah you know i imagine a lot of the criticisms are going to be the third act where everything is a little more repetitive and there's some maybe some some threads you could pull that you have things you didn't like but at this point i mean i'm like holy fuck it got me completely i didn't see i must have not i thought i just wasn't seeing your thumb maybe so i didn't realize you and i'm just like they got fucking cap and i've had johnny storm kind of on the radar at some point but i wasn't thinking this way i was thinking secret words which made it land even harder for me so i was

just like oh man because i thought i had seen because i think he has a little bit of red somewhere on his outfit not on the yeah he does so i am thinking red white and blue obviously with cap and even deadpool says like avengers assemble right so yeah like holy shit and then the fact it was johnny storm that's when there's like the moment at the royal rumble when you get the guy who is probably like two levels higher than anyone you thought you were going to get. And you're just like, all right, like we could be seeing Stone Cold tonight for all I know. And that's kind of where I was with this. And once I saw that, I was just, I'm just like, I'm just so happy to be here right now.

That's all I can think about when I was in my seat. I was like, I'm just happy to be here, which is something we haven't said a lot lately with these marvel products which is it's so fucking hard the our boy pyro who by the way bob fox got the interview with him had himself a fucking movie i didn't think he was gonna have this kind of role man good for him i thought he would have like an azazel type role where like you see him and you're like ah it's cool he's one of the guys and then he gets killed off at some point he's like the henchman he's the bob the goon of the movie awesome awesome performance aaron stanford yeah he was great he was just like perfect conniving villain you know playing for both sides and stuff chris evans also does a great job playing johnny storm so different than he plays

steve rogers that like he's such a dick as johnny storm and you, that's even revealed more so in the post-credits scene. But everything between Johnny, Deadpool, and Wolverine, and then into the Cassandra Nova scene really cracked me up. I thought it was some of the best stuff in the movie. Yeah, 100%. And it is so funny to have the wisecracking, you know, Johnny versus the clean cap. It really does just fuck with your brain. Like, that's my sweet cap. Why is he speaking like that right now?

Then they're taken to meet Cassandra Nova, who gives her a whole backstory. He's like, that's a lot of exposition for a third movie in their franchise or whatever. Very funny lines like that. She murders Johnny brutally after Deadpool goes on this rant about everything. I thought that moment was so funny. The CGI in that moment might get picked apart because it looked a little video gamey when he just gets made into bones and blood. And she summons Elias, Deadpool and Wolverine narrowly escape. And then you get into the like pyro tailing them the whole time point.

When it comes to Cassandra Nova, I thought the actress played her really well. And I love the effect of her putting her hand into people's faces and it's coming out people's eyeballs. And that effect was really cool, really unique, really good. I don't know that Cassandra Nova had enough to do in this movie for me to say she was a great villain. But if she had more to do, I think she had that potential. I think that's a fair criticism that i think people will make and i'm with you i i thought the actress was awesome as her the character which i don't know about from the books as much but just like reading up on it ever since ever since she was

revealed in the trailer got me excited and i did feel like there i just wish she was done better i wish like the oh i'm the bad person in the in the void to these guys trying to screw me. I'm just going to destroy like every timeline in the universe. It was like Khaleesi in Thrones, right? At the final season, we're just like, what the fuck are we doing? The relationship between her and Paradox, a little confusing. The deal that they had where she could, the deal is that she wanted to stay in the void because you could do anything in the void. So he was going to let her stay in the void. It's like, what do you mean you were going to let to stay in the void because you could do anything in the void. So he was going to let her stay in the void.

It's like, what do you mean you were going to let her stay in the void? Was that the deal? Because, like, I thought everyone should Spanish to the void and there's no whatever. I don't know. I'm not I'm not trying to pick that apart. I don't really care. But, yeah, it was a little confusing. Maybe I'll see it tonight and on a second viewing, it'll get much less confusing.

Yeah, I think I think I'm going to be with you on on that again. I'll watch it again and on a second viewing, it'll get much less confusing. I think I'm going to be with you on, on that again. I'll watch it again. I really did. Again. It's like, I wish we had her as an option for other, I mean,

obviously this is the void Cassandra. There's going to be other versions of it, but I really did enjoy her. The, the death of the human torch with taking the skin off. I think the other, so I think it's a little goofy. Disney probably wants to be a little

more goofy than real right i think they're like listen i'm sure ryan reynolds i imagine ryan reynolds first draft of it was probably even earlier and then they're like this is the goriest deadpool movie even glorious deadpool and by far i don't even know what the second mcu is in terms of goriest movie right guardians three just because of that scene where the high evolutionary gets his face ripped off yeah yeah probably just because of that scene where the high evolutionary gets his face ripped off yeah probably just because of that scene though there's not even another moment really i bet they nerfed the shit out of that one too so this is for for people like us who watch these comic stuff if i hadn't been watching the boys right like this would have probably hit harder but i'm like oh

that's not the boy you know know part of his like you know heart just burning blood and you know just really fucked up shit so seeing that was a little goofy but i also think it's partially because it is which again i'm happy they they let them them go for it and it also lets you know oh this bitch she has powers like we're talking professor x twin sister of course she has some crazy ass powers and she can just let her up i also did think i appreciated at i know we're jumping ahead here at the end she was like she was very like hey you guys you guys let me go here so i'm gonna do solid by you but at the same time like i felt like she was so evil she wouldn't do that so i was kind of coming to grips with that on the rewatch we'll see

how i feel yeah i i pretty much agree with everything you said there and also loved the line during this scene where aliath starts closing in and deadpool turns around he's like aliath from loki season one episode five such a great little note for you know it works for the the diehards that watch that and we're there four to three in the morning and it works for the people that didn't watch it at all. And I feel like that goes for the whole movie, actually. Like, I don't think you need to be real diehard into the MCU or Deadpool to enjoy the movie. I think it's funny enough that anyone can enjoy it. I agree.

My wife has watched some of the MCU movies, definitely not all of them. She hasn't even watched any Deadpools. So I think I might have. I think she's going to like she likes Ryan Reynolds.nolds i think she will enjoy one we'll get into two and then if she watched three without seeing a chunk of those movies i think she would still have a perfectly good time and again people someone asked me like do i need to watch loki season two to understand what's going on like i don't think at all i don't think we even got anything but if you don't watch loki season one you're like what the fuck's the tA? What are these doors? And what is Elioth and the Void and all that stuff?

So Loki season one was kind of must watch. But at the same point, like, it kind of like, if you didn't watch Loki season one, like, I don't know what to tell you. Like, that was dubbed as a pretty important show. It's like not watching a big movie. Speaking of pretty important things, we get a pretty important character coming up here. Dogpool. It's the dogpool scene. You get Dogpool and Nicepool, who is like a samurai.

He's got the double golden desert eagle, 50 cows that Deadpool has his eyes on right away, like Wayne in that guitar. He's like, oh, my God, I need those to be mine. And he talks to him about, you know, there's these basically wildling Deadpools all over the void. They're a dime a dozen. You need to avoid them. This one is the only nice Deadpool. That's why they call him nice, nice pool. And he's like, you've got to find the resistance.

So they get in a Honda Odyssey, which is another running joke throughout the movie. Deadpool's shitting on the Honda Odyssey at every turn. And then eventually he's like, hey, kind of fucking slaps. And they drive off. They have like another fight scene in the car as well. In the middle of the forest, they get into it in the car like serious. And Hugh Jackman gives great performances. This Wolverine.

And then they're like, all right, I'm going to fight you now. I think Deadpool says, yeah, we're going to fight now. And they just start fucking going. Wolverine seatbelts him in. So creative. This one, the way they used the car and stayed in the car pretty much the whole time. I said to you, there's that moment where he's banging Deadpool's head off the,

off the radio. I think that might've been the moment they played the greatest show, but I don't know. Another thing that hopefully tonight I'll be able to re-listen to that. But yeah, I thought this fight scene might've even been better than the first one because it was more creative. I, I was hoping for a uh this is the greatest show like that would have been like a needle drop moment and i i'm bummed they didn't do it again that's when you find out the soundtrack

before before the movie it hurts it because if i had not even known that going in i would have been like oh and then if that was the point because again as soon as we left we're like we're like all right now what what didn't we like or what was missing and i'm like where was that so if it happened during that scene great fight scene um again like i think it could have it could have scrapped and not scrapped it but made sure to do whatever i'm fine with it had some really cool shit they did with the car i'm a toyota sienna guy so i am like fuck the honda odyssey so i was kind of like riding with deadpool hard there we're talking minivans right now, folks. Don't worry about it.

And then Nice Pool. Every time I saw Nice Pool, even down to like the namaste and just personality, the hair. That's Jenks. That was fucking. He did the same bun, right? It's a similar bun. Yeah. I like when he called him.

Yeah. When he called him Van Milder. That was a really funny chirp. Every single line where he's saying one of his movies or he says one of Blake Lively, you know, it's human bodies, 220 bones, 221 of them watching Gossip Girl. Great line. Really funny. Yeah.

Before we get into some of the best cameos, some of the best scenes, let's tell everyone about the PFL, Professional Fighters League. I love the PFL. And the playoffs kick off on Friday, August 2nd. Women's flyweights and heavyweights headed to Nashville. It's win or go home as fighters compete for a spot in the million-dollar PFL World Championship. Don't miss the action Friday, August 2nd at 9 p.m. Eastern on ESPN and ESPN+. And for those looking to attend, there are tickets still available.

Tune in again, Friday, August 2nd, 9. PM. Eastern on ESPN and ESPN plus for the PFL playoffs in Nashville, you will be getting women's flyweights and heavyweights. It's going to be a great card.

And there was even some MMA talk in this movie when he's like, you got to get side control. You got to fucking do this. I loved all that. I was eating it up. But here's the cameos that feel like the Royal Rumble. When they meet the resistance, they get to their hut. Wolverine starts pounding the booze immediately.

In walks Jennifer Gardner as Elektra. In walks Wesley Snipes as Blade. Then a little fucking card slides into the screen and it's like oh my god it's happening it walks channing tatum as gambit and then finally x23 laura daphne keen makes her return the crowd was interesting because like all of the cameos electra blade gambit got cheers like whoa whoa whoa laura walks down the stairs and it was like a slow clap like people were just like oh that's our girl yeah they were really were and they they have this very funny scene where they all meet they try to tell deadpool and wolverine about cassandra her powers they're like is magneto around he like, he's dead. Deadpool's like, fuck, very funny stuff.

And Gambit kind of steals the scene for me personally, his accent, the thing that Channing Tatum is doing where he's like, he's not even saying real words. And Deadpool's just like, who is your dialect coach? And he's like, I was born ready when I shot out of my daddy's balls into my mama,

like everything this guy said. And they, they did it perfectly where I didn't feel like the character was completely a joke because the fight scene later on, he's bad-ass killing people and stuff, but he's played for comedic purpose in this movie and it works so well. Yeah, it works.

It works perfectly. Oh man. Wesley Snipes dropping in an art bomb was so was so funny and then ryan reynolds goes listen i'm in the void i'm also trying to get canceled right now so it's like they're even having fun with that stuff so i appreciated all that shit um channing tatum basically becoming coach out with his accent yeah it was fucking amazing jennifer garner still fucking has it all these years later again has it i haven't done my i have to do my whole lecture re-watching and getting caught up the whole thing with daredevil's not around she's like that's okay like it's all right kind of thing fuck ben affleck oh just it's

just incredible i'm the only blade he says later on he's looking bright oh that's so funny i'll i'm the only guy that'll ever be blade and it was just like and then the x20 so the x23 reveal i that was apparently spoiled in a recent trailer was that the big spoiler people were talking about and then i had seen something about x23 being the big reveal and i'll be honest with you guys this was before i did my loggering watch And I'm like, well, luckily for me, I have no clue who the fuck. I thought X-23 meant like X-Men 23. And they revealed that there's an X-Men team out there. So I was like, oh, shit.

And then when I rewatched Logan, they see X-23. And I was like, oh, shit. So seeing her, by the way, makes me feel ancient. And it's only been seven years since Logan. Yeah, she's an adult now. It's like, yeah, she hit puberty. So now she has gotten really old really quick. It or was 12 to 19 those were the seven years oh crazy seven years yeah she's just an adult and it was it was like charming when she put the glasses on but i was kind of like

is 19 year old putting those fucking eight-year-old glasses on whatever um another another go ahead the blade stuff i didn't realize how crazy it was too until i was reading the again we're reading the subreddit just to kind of get ready for this did you hear about the i didn't realize ryan reynolds and wesley snipes have beef that goes back had beef on the set of blade trinity right yeah so i i took this um from online apparently a lot of this stuff came from um pat oswalt was telling the scenes from blade trinity uh apparently snipes would communicate only with the director and he would only okay i don't know which stuff is true but if it's true all true it's hilarious and it's

peak wesley snipes being crazy person he would only communicate in post-it notes and it would be signed from blade that's how he would write anything he wanted to say he would say to you know the director and then um he apparently did not like ryan reynolds which listen i think ryan reynolds is awesome i think he's hilarious and i think his personality is a big reason you can get these cameos in there because he's such a nice guy i imagine he's pals with all these people he's also fucking beautiful so it's like he always gets that little bump up. Apparently Wesley Snipes would only refer

to Ryan Reynolds as that cracker, which is absolutely amazing. And they said a lot of times he really didn't like working with Ryan Reynolds or would avoid it. So the fact that a lot of people when there was rumors that he could be in this movie as Blade, everyone's

like, he hates Ryan Reynolds. So even the rumors that he could be in this movie as blade everyone's like he hates ryan reynolds so even the like rumors that came out about it were kind of squashed immediately based on that so shout out to ryan reynolds for you know swaying him shout out to wesley stein for squashing the beef or shout out to kevin feige for just being like here's a blank check just be blamed for like five minutes in in movie time and you're gonna be wesley stein's are pretty sure had some like tax issues. I'm sure does he just took care of a bunch of those by themselves? Oh yeah.

And I know there's the infamous story from blade Trinity as well, where like they needed a scene of him just like this opening his eyes. They were like, all right, open your eyes. He's like, I'm not doing it. So they CGI fake eyes onto his eyelids. It's so bad. Like it looks horrendous so i'm so curious as to what wesley snipes was like on this set is he was he just going through some weird shit back then and

he's completely normal now or was it like a struggle to get him to film scenes at any point because he comes off totally like naturally comes off good in the role like there's nothing about his performance that would indicate it was a weird production schedule or whatever like that he was great like his line when they go into battle they create the plan get juggernaut's helmet on uh cassandra nova and he takes out the giant thing and he's they're like whoa where'd you get that he's like it's from the punisher they're like which punisher like all of that it was just perfect it was perfect the referencing the characters that weren't there were perfectly said the medido dying all the

punisher or uh daredevil like you said yeah yeah it was it's everything you want it was just scratching that fan service nerdy bone and that's all i could could ever want and it was perfect watch it once watch it every couple of years, and you're just going to have a grin ear to ear the entire fucking time. If you're not grinning ear to ear when they all get out of the car and just pull up on Cassandra Nova and they have that hero team up shot, you're at the wrong movie theater. You're watching the wrong franchise.

This is like, oh, it was so good awesome sequence too just you get to see everyone using their powers you get to see x-23 still a fucking savage with the claws gambits slicing people with cards his big stick um logan gets to cassandra she gets in his brain and goes into his memories. Another great scene, like really well acted. And another one that made me go like, if it wasn't Cassandra and Paradox and Cassandra was the only villain, she could have gone down as one of the better Marvel villains because this was really creepy. And then the distraction of that allows them to get the helmet on. X-23 threw it up. I think Deadpool puts it on. And Logan, in this moment, convinces her that Charles would have helped.

You know, Charles would have liked you if he knew you. He pulls on her heartstrings a little bit. And she's like, all right, I'm going to open this portal using this thing that this shitty magician brought into the void. And it's a sling ring, Doctor Strange style. Opens the portal, sends him back to earth 10,005. And then pyro,

our guy, Bob, the goon comes up and confesses that he is a double agent. He's been working for paradox. I thought it was even great. How he was a chicken shit about, she's like, Oh,

let me find out what's going on. He's like, no, no, I'm just going to tell you. I'll tell you. Jesus. Um,

and she also, after hearing that goes through the portal to follow them i think that was the last pyro scene but again check out my interview with aaron stanford he's a really cool guy i didn't know how much we would get of him in this movie i in the interview even said like i know i'm not even allowed to ask you if you worked with ryan reynolds like what was it like to work with sean levy or levy and he talks about that but it's like work with ryan he worked with ryan reynolds chris evans fucking hugh jackman cassandra nova like emma corin i think her name is he got to work with everybody shout out to like whoever got him that power roll way back then he probably

think was gonna pay off in spades in the year 2024 right like just absolutely incredible and i i felt like and just based on like you said he was such a cool guy whatever i was just like man i'm happy for him i'm happy i was rooting for him yeah the guy in all this right because azazel really didn't do much in the end and a lot of those other villains juggernaut was recast that was a funny line he's like you must be this year's juggernaut yeah oh and like you said we we mentioned it going into the movie i was like if they're going on to the end game battle scene it would have been so going into the movie i was like if they're going on to the end game battle scene it would have been so dope in the end i was all right with

it because again i if if i had if it had just happened i would have been like again my brain probably explodes in the movie and i'm dead i'm just laying there in the imax but with it not happening i'm all right because it already had the thought of it had already gotten all that dopamine into my brain that was the portal scene and lady deadpool were two things that all of the fans took as giant teases from the trailer and neither of them were i think we were like oh look they whited out the portal so they they're trying not to show us what's through it and in the movie that's exactly what it looks like white because it's just the clouds so it's like they're going back to the car dealership and lady deadpool who knows who it was they don't unmask her at any point some people are still

saying the voice could have been blake and i i could buy that i don't think it was taylor swift though that is something uh again looking at the credits on a rewatch would be worth it i i looked i did go on imdb and they don't have anything up i'm sure they're trying to avoid the spoilers with all the other cameos there. So at some point I'll have to go back. But some people said it was Blake just masked up. If that's the case, I'm fine with it too. I think that makes it just as funny.

All right, cutting in with a quick insert here, because after seeing the movie the second time at that dog pool screening, I stuck around for the credits and Lady Pool is in fact played by Blake Lively. So there you have it. I didn't notice it the first time, but pool is in fact played by Blake lively. So there you have it. I didn't notice it the first time, but she is in fact lady pool. That dog pool screening was awesome. By the way,

I'll talk about it next week, back to the show. Then we get the army of dead pools featuring lady pool, baby pool, dead head pool, kid pool, all of these random dead pools coming through the portal to fight logan and wade there's the whole like it's kind of a b plot with like uh cassandra nova and paradox

and there's the time ripper it's matter and anti-matter she's trying to prune all the universes because she's mad about the deal thing they need to stop her but first they need to stop all these deadpools and you get the scene where hugh jackman just goes like that and as soon as he went like that you heard the gasps in our theater like it's about to happen puts the fucking mask on it looks so awesome another comic book level shot of them lined up and then it's almost like the hallway scene in guardians where it's it's like a one shot, like go through just killing Deadpool's left and right. Some of them regenerate.

Some of them don't. That was a joke throughout the movie as well. Also, when he picks up Nicepool, he's like, all right, you regenerate like slowly. And he's like, regenerate. Oh, no. And then he gets the Desert Eagles. He gets dog pools. Finally, his. i noticed there was

a stanley cameo during this i loved when they go through the bus there's a stanley steamers ad and it's a picture of stanley on it so it's like oh that's nice there's the rob leifeld is the creator of deadpool they put his name on the thing there just feet right because he doesn't do feet oh is that what it is because he doesn't do feet i didn't even realize that i think that's been in an old one they like the flaggy pizza then this guy like i think it's called like just feet is the name of the company or something like yeah so the easter eggers are going to be hunting forever with that yes it's seen and just the whole movie in general the void all the little things in the back 20th century fox which we saw that was funny yeah um they have to stop cassandra nova

by like teaming up and someone's got to make the sacrifice it's gonna kill someone wolverine wants to be that guy wade doesn't let him be that guy closes the door on him and he's like you're not making the sacrifice today they have the madonna plan like a prayer and he grabs the shit he's trying to hold it out of nowhere boom wolverine grabs his arm and they combine powers they are able to short circuit the time ripper killing cassandra nova stopping her killing her for now because she might be back in five years who knows they are successful though b15 from loki makes an appearance a great like little cameo for the people that watch loki another one where you don't have to watch it to be like oh she's just a tva agent um and she comes to arrest paradox

one of the funniest scenes in the movie i thought was the arresting paradox scene because of how he's trying to play he's like my men were in there making a noble sacrifice he does all that and then you bring back the guy that was in love with both of them and he sees hugh jackman shirtless with the mask on he's just like oh my god that was another unbelievable visual of hugh jackman with the mask on but also shirtless with the fucking lights running through his veins like at some point it almost looked like the adamantium was about to rip out of his bones like x-men 97 yeah the the line too about like he's let himself self-go since the divorce that's why he's not sure there's a lot of that that meta stuff and everyone so the the deadpools the deadpools like

i didn't i like the scene like it was it was what it was like you said the guardian fights and you're just having like deaths and some of the deadpools i love some of them i was like whatever with um but the fact that they all just love peter and he's like the one uniting so funny i forgot to mention that yeah he's basically the prime deadpool like yeah dead peter or something peterpool peterpool and then um the b19 or whatever she's like loves him she's like oh what's up oh that was funny too and when they're just staring at each other they're like what the fuck is happening right now but the and then when all the deadpools

are there and ryan reynolds just goes like listen the multiverse just isn't working it's just not working right now very much like marvel fans are just nodding in agreement right they're doing the alonzo morning shaking the head and then nodding so uh i i don't like are we done with the multiverse phase or are we gonna like try to save it in the next year? I don't know how it's all going to go. We might be like, I don't know what the end point is though. Is the end point secret wars or is that the beginning of the mutant saga? Because that's what Feige just said. He's like, oh yeah, the next saga is the mutant saga.

It's like people were like, oh, so you're sweeping that multiverse saga under the rug real quick, huh? Yeah. It's interesting, too, to think about it because the multiverse saga, to me, feels so much shorter than the Infinity Saga because it's come out in such a short amount of time. But there's so much more content in the multiverse saga than there ever was in the Infinity Saga, which is – it breaks my brain a little bit to try to process that. And we were talking before the movie with Ken Jack too, a good chunk of it was because like Bob Iger's replaced when the other Bob, who I did not even mention his name. Disney plus was, they had a stream. They had to stream their asses off.

Disney was the big franchise. They did it. They got fucked. It wasn't some of the, it wasn't good content. Some of it was COVID related. It was just, we got fucked.

We got fucked out of a really cool post end game phase. I don't know how good it would have been if covid never happens there's a lot of things you can say if covid never happens right so um you know i think marvel the marvel universe is not number one two or three on the great what ifs if covid didn't happen so uh i don't know where the multi i feel like we still need it for a little bit though because i feel like fantastic four to weave everyone you have to weave everything together with the fantastic four and the mutants and i do think the multiverse is the thing that's going to have to bring them together so i i think you're right secret wars could be the um the thing

that does it and that will kind of be the end of that and then from there we're going to go with mutants and again if ryan reynolds and his team of, and who is the director of the film, Sean Levy? Sean Levy, yeah. If not the head honchos of it all, extremely ingrained in everything, I'll be upset. Like Favreau was with Iron Man and all that shit, that's the way I want Ryan Reynolds and team. And again, I do think, I think Ryan Reynolds, when he's involved in stuff,

isn't going to make a thousand different jokes like he does in these movies. I think he can tone it back. I just want to have, whoever was like, let's put the Wolverine crucifixion um scene in this movie that person should have a very big part in uh all x-men mutant stuff going forward dude that's the sort of thing i wouldn't be shocked if that was a feige call he has those weird things sometimes like just you could have professor x in multiverse madness if you put him in the yellow floaty chair

he has like those weird little like i think for this one or maybe it was hugh jackman even was like can we put him in the suit can we do the yellow suit and the constant back and forth of that too of deadpool asking him about the suit and he'd be like fuck off and then you get the campfire scene with daphne keen and he just he gives that information up and he says i wear this suit because it's the last thing I have of my X-Men, essentially. He was like, oh man, they're like pulling at the heartstrings. Like a few times in this movie, they pull at the heartstrings and they wrap it up in a really nice way. Wade and Logan celebratory shawarma in the city, Avengers style. He's like, you know, the Avengers discovered shawarma. Wade then brings Logan home and they have a little celebration. You see X-23 is there because they bargained with the TVA. Can you save some of our friends? discovered shawarma wade then brings logan home and they have a little celebration you see x23

is there because they bargain with the tva can you save some of our friends i guess tough shit for electro blade and gambit it's like we could save one it's like all right let's save my friend's daughter then and logan and vanessa or uh wade and vanessa are in that weird spot that they left off on deadpool 2 they're still in a weird spot so the finale is kind of logan being like give me the fucking dog you talk to the girl and we see a nice little reconnection between rate wade and vanessa that was my one other issue i need everything more vanessa i need more vanessa and i need everything to be good between them because she deserves someone as great as ryan reynolds not wade and i just love her so goddamn much i could use more of her in the movie i said if blake wasn't going to be lady deadpool i wanted her to be vanessa to be lady deadpool um more vanessa that's my one note even

though it would have not fit in at any point in this movie i just that was tough yeah like i wanted i would have liked more dopinder more vanessa would have been good more colossus would have been fine but there's not spots you could have fit him into this movie so it's like all right i understand i would love to know what scenes were cut or deleted scenes or like what was cut from the script because i'm sure they had extra stuff this movie's a little over two hours and it flies by like every other scene is exciting and an action sequence or a cameo so really the runtime flies by but i'm sure the original cut was probably two and a half three hours i wonder if they had any like big cameos that were cut i and i yeah i that that's a great question as well did you see that um they leaked

some fake news about i saw that as well and was that taylor swift were they leaning into the taylor swift shit to try to just take everyone's minds off of the fact that chris evans and channing tate channing tatum and wesley snipes are back like i don't know yeah and because then you're gonna be like waiting for it the whole time and in the end like we left that theater and i was like i was fine with i was like i would have been cool if it happened didn't happen and then i was like do we like kind of like lean into be like, it's Taylor Swift, the enemy of the MCU. I'm not fucking with the Swifties right now.

They're too damn strong. So I'm not even going to make the joke about that. She's passed, but she's going to play Mephisto whenever they bring her. Then we got a mid credits montage. I hesitate to call it a mid credit scene. Cause it's just a montage of all of the behind the scenes stuff from the fox franchises fantastic four daredevil electra x-men all of these set to good riddance time of your life and this is such an interesting one because when that song kicks in

at this point people like kind of laugh it's like it's been used at graduations for 30 fucking years but by the end of that montage it was so heartfelt and sweet it wasn't like it's been used at graduations for 30 fucking years. But by the end of that montage, it was so heartfelt and sweet. It wasn't like it wasn't really played for laughs like you think it is when it starts. And it's like, damn, that was like that was a nice send off for that whole universe. I again, you're watching a Deadpool movie. You're just waiting for people to get shit on or it's like, where's the punchline? Yeah, yeah. No punchline.

They're like thank you for the fox movies yeah and it kind of like so we said it yet endgame was the wrap-up of that first decade of marvel we had spider-man which was the wrap-up of all the spider-man movies and then this did it for the fox movies which i thought was like and when you look at it watch this movie through that lens i think it makes it even better, right? It's like, that's what we were doing here more so than making episode one of the next Marvel, the next MCU chapter.

It's more so just wrapping everything up. And I said it's a mid-credits scene, so I hope people weren't like, Clem, you told me a mid-credits scene and a full credits scene. I consider that like that was- It basically is. Like the reason to stay in the theater,

there's two things that are gonna happen during the credits credits and that was one and i i loved it i want i can't wait to re-watch it again because uh there was some fun in there and there's just so many hits coming and your brain is still trying to process everything i just saw so that was that was very cool i was hit me in the fields a little bit not just because of the green day but because i'm 26 those movies a lot of them came out when i was either blade came out i think before i was born even like possibly or around the same time the x-men movies i was such a young kid for even the fantastic four movies that i loved them like seeing the first fantastic four with chris evans i remember that summer burger king had the rights to their toys and it was like we got a race to get all the fantastic Four and the Doctor Doom that you fucking, you put Invisible Woman in the freezer and she turns invisible.

It was like one of those things. So like seeing all that shit, I was like, Daredevil, I loved. I was obsessed with Daredevil. I would go to the VHS. I would scroll all the way to the end so I could watch the Evanescence music video he was in. So seeing all that shit, I was just like, just like man that is it is the end game of all that stuff and then the post-credit scene lightens the mood a little bit if you were crying wipe those tears because Chris Evans is actually just going to crack you up by saying everything that

Deadpool said he said earlier just that that the worst woman you know he's just screaming all this crazy credit to him for being able to memorize those lines. I was thinking, how do you memorize that entire monologue? But very funny. It wasn't, uh, we're teasing the future of the MCU and Magneto shows up and doom shows up. It was just a laugh, which a lot of the Deadpool post-credit scenes are. He did the Ferris Bueller thing at one point, you know like that so when that's when when we're getting ready for the end credit scene i was like okay this is gonna go either one of two ways it's gonna be a gag or it's gonna be something that you're like all right that movie may not have

had tons of continuation for the future of the mcu but this is the eight out of ten moment that's gonna be like like you said doom is here yada yada yada, yada. And it was the former. It was the former. And I'm fine with it. Again, it's a funny payoff. It's legitimately hilarious. And it's the anti-cap because you're hearing captain. You still see Captain America, as you know, it's Johnny Storm saying it, but he's cap as well.

So it just, it fucks with your mind. Like, I don't even remember. I'm like, is he just ad-libbing other stuff on top of this? Because I don't even remember being this dirty. So it was hilarious. I thought it was great. I'm sure there's going to be things picked apart with it in terms of hoping for some more big reveal, just because I know that's how us fans really get into things.

But I thought get Chris Evans, again, acting as Johnny Storm, but kind of still being Cap with that potty mouth. And I'll fuck with it. Still wink wink the whole time. Yeah. All right. Kevin's, again, acting as Johnny Storm, but kind of still being Cap with that potty mouth. And I'll fuck with it. Still wink wink the whole time. Yeah. All right. Now our fast food reviews.

You said you knew yours instantly. I knew mine pretty quickly, too. I think I might have used mine before. I'll be completely honest. But the analogy just works for it. So I'm going to use it. I'm going to go with the Doritos Locos Taco from Taco Bell. I'm going with the nacho cheese version. That's the one that I prefer, but whatever one that you like the best. When we hear Doritos is coming to Taco Bell and they're making a shell out of the Dorito, that sounds incredible, but like too good to be true, right? Like that

can't be as good as it sounds. my first one i remember being like holy the game has changed this isn't going to be a limited edition item i think this has got to stay on the menu forever it has stayed on the menu because oh my god that is a collaboration made in heaven and that is how i would feel about deadpool and wolverine that is how i feel about deadpool and wolverine so i'm going with the doritos locos taco clem what do you got for your fat i like that i like that analogy too because i do feel like probably like going back years before then people were like, why don't we just do like a throw some Doritos on the taco or make a Doritos flavored?

And then they just didn't. It was like, holy fuck. I think they're both owned by Frito Light. So definitely a match made in heaven. Do you ever get any taco on the side other than a Doritos? I only basically eat Doritos Locos now. Occasionally do a soft taco. I don't go hard, but like I only basically eat Doritos Locos now. Occasionally do a soft taco. I don't go hard, but like

crunchy, it's Doritos Locos or nothing. Like, that's what you need to talk about. My fast food review is, and I don't think I've used this before. I'm pretty sure you have because I know this is one of your franchise fast food items. It's the

Baconator. And that is Bob Fox is a Baconator guy, which again- I love the Baconator. If you look at the two of us, you're saying, who's the Baconator guy? You think I'm the Baconator guy? No, no, no. Bob Fox. But to be fair, I'm the Baconator Jr., son of a Baconator, whatever they call it.

I'm the tiny version of the Baconator guy, but it's the same ingredients. Same ingredients. And the reason I say it's the Baconator, it's huge. It's fucking, there's all these different things going on top. It's just like, is it the greatest burger of all time? Maybe, maybe not. But it's just like, we're just going to have fun and be crazy with it. We're going to go over the top.

Hence the name Baconator. It's a blockbuster name, just like Deadpool 3 is a blockbuster movie. So it's going gonna leave you full you can't do it off you can't have a baconator every single day so it's kind of like you can't watch deadpools every single day you're not going to just re-watch it all the time but when you're just in the mood you get that baconator you throw it down your gullet and you're just like man that was fucking awesome i actually we did the fast food draft on the dog walk and i think glennie took it and i said in all honesty guys the Baconator came out and I waited like three years.

Cause I'm like, listen, I'm a little reckless with how I eat as is. I can't just be throwing Baconator down my throat. That felt a little, it's a little excessive, which at some points you can say Deadpool's a little excessive. But when you want it and you just fucking take down every bite of it and you just sit there being like, that was an experience. And that's how I felt after the movie, like a nice fresh bacon. I love it. I loved the movie.

I'm excited to see it tonight. Hopefully my dog sits through it. If not, I'll probably go opening night anyway. I hope everyone out there enjoyed it. I hope if you're listening to this, you just watched it and you're on that post movie high, maybe on the ride home from the movies.

I know I had that. I love that on the way home when you're just thinking about all of the scenes from the movie over and over and over again. I'm sure a bunch of people out there are going home and doing nasty things to their Wolverine popcorn buckets, which we didn't get. They actually gave us all popcorn buckets. I was shocked. They said, oh, you know, free soda and free popcorn. And either you or Ken Jackson, you think we'll get the buckets? And I was like, no way. They're going to give us the smallest bag of popcorn in human history that fits two pieces and the smallest little Dixie cup full of soda, large soda, Wolverine popcorn buckets for everybody. They're spending all the marketing money on this movie. They're like, we know this

is a hit and it's on pace to be the biggest opening for a rated R movie ever. And I think it's going to make a bill. I I think it's going to make a bill. I really think it's going to get over that billion point. I think word of mouth is going to be great. I hope it is. And I hope everyone out there enjoyed it as much as we did because it was everything we wanted and more. So thank you, Kevin Feige, Sean Levy. Thank you, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman.
