Here are 3 things Movie theaters should have addressed. 1. Intermissions. They are trying to make shows and movies shorter. Just make an intermission like anyone who cares about their audience. 2. Provide decent food instead of junk food and popcorn. I can tell you, the food in a theater matters. 3. Experienced theater production. If i go to a kids show or movie to rate a movie or production. I do not want to see the image is beyond the curtain length. Meaning its a 21.9 image an the theater thinks its 1920x1080 an ruins the movie. You are too old to know what Surround Sound is. Theaters who do not turn on side speakers and only turn on the center speaker. Leaving out many sounds an effects. People can put in a sub-woofer in their car but wont do it for a theater movie.

SPOILERS: I actually kinda loved the meta narrative of giving proper endings to characters like Blade and Elektra, whose franchises kinda just fizzled out, as well as giving a chance to shine to Channing Tatum’s Gambit, whose movie never saw the light of day. Honestly the whole movie felt like a big love letter to the superhero movies made by Fox with the plot literally revolving around saving the X-Men universe from being destroyed, plus that lovely retrospective during the credits.

[@nightmarearcade2663]

Yeah that's one of my favorite parts of the movie. For all the faults that the fox movies had it isn't right to completely ignore them as even now some of the movies are still pretty good. And this movie isn't afraid to make fun of those movies as well like that scene with saber tooth was genuinely one of the funniest jabs I've ever seen.

Where Logan lets out all his frustration with Wade, Because all he can do with talking is be snarky rather than express himself honestly, DP declares he's going to fight Wolvy instead. Toward the end of the fight, Deadpool admits that the Honda Odyssey (an old car that's for families, kinda like Logan being a grumpy old guy with a big family himself) slaps. Something about that, plus Wolverine later repeating his line about an "educated wish," feels like the beginning of their real friendship.

The funny thing about movies in theaters. Is that studios aren’t even thunking of maybe re-releasing classic films in Theaters. Studio Ghibli does a festival nearly every year where they show off their classic films in theaters. Could you imagine if Disney re-released their classic animated films in theaters for a limited time every year or two. The possibilities for that are endless. The only other problem with theaters is how expensive they are.

[@viridian5maureen853]

One thing I like about the movie is that Ryan Reynolds went on Turner Classic Movies and said he puts a reference to Planes, Trains, and Automobiles in every movie he does. I went into the theater ready to scour the scenes for a reference, and I only had to wait until the opening scene to see the mug.

[@motherplayer]

For me, that was that argument in the car. I saw his hosting of that too, and knowing that, that scene was hitting right like the blowup at Neil to Dale, except he fights it out instead of talks it out, which was so on point. And a little bit of Grosse Point Blank there too.

Deadpool & Wolverine have honestly sparked something in me with the MCU, I think I'm ready to let the Avengers era rest and move on to the MCU being heralded by the faces of Marvel from the 2000's, Spider-Man, X-Men, Fantastic Four, etc. I'm more charitable with post Endgame material (Still LOVE No Way Home and really like Wakanda Forever) but I can admit that not a lot of it did anything for me, and I can't say it's superhero fatigue (bleh, that phrase) because I am currently hyper fixated on the superheroes of Japan right now.

I think a lot of the worries about how this movie may not hold up in the future is just kinda light doomerism to be honest. The only Fox era Marvel film I've seen was First Class, and even then I've only seen it once in theaters and barely remember anything from it. Despite that, a lot of the core conflict still struck a chord with me, I still knew of all these characters and movies and that was enough even if I have no actual emotional attachment to them. It helps too that the end credits contextualize what it all means. Even aside from that, I still think this movie will hold up, much like NWH does for me, cause Wade and Logan's character arcs and dynamic are great, the script is genuinely hilarious, and the action scenes are largely fantastic. This movie has a lot of merit outside of being a celebration/sendoff for the Fox era Marvel films

[@iceprism367]

I agree, I've watched Logan and the X-Men movies, but I didn't know Blade or Electra or Gambit yet I still knew these characters were dropped somehow. I think anyone who engages with general movie culture can understand it sucks when characters or movies are dropped or left out so the conflict should still work without knowing the specifics of certain characters. If anything I just wanted to know what happened with these characters I didn't know. The writing just felt so genuine I didn't care that I didn't really know some of this stuff since the movie isn't about lore, it's about vibes.

For the past 10 years we have been living in a 80's nostalgia feedback loop. As an older gen Z. I was a kid who has the X-men movies as my first DVD, I saw Fantastic 4 in theaters and I watched Daredevil and Electra an embarrassingly high number of times. I watched the Blade movies as my first movies with vampires. Yes, this has limited appeals. Yes, they were insecure and goofy. But they walked so Iornman could fly. And that makes them important in the superhero genres and film history. And it's nice to see old friends one final time. Bye bye bye~

[@joegover9452]

The only one who didn't appear was Nicholas Cage's Ghostrider

[@TheTatermeister]

Yeah didn't quite get that

[@Eidlones]

Ghost Rider was Columbia, not FOX

[@tannerp.4996]

@@EidlonesBlade wasn’t Fox either. Blade was New Line Cinema

[@AngelPerez-tu1nk]

Spex I too was the loudest person in my theater I just couldn't contain my laughter and joy xD. As a longtime Marvel True Believer this movie hit me on all the right spots xD

[@prophetessoftroy]

Realized as I was sitting in the theatre that this was the first movie I’ve been to in a theatre since lockdown. And honestly, it was a good one to go back to. I wanted something fun, something that I didn’t have to think too much about. Is it the best Deadpool movie? No. The story could be stronger. But it was FUN. And I needed some fun. I don’t even care about doubles, the opener will forever be a favorite sequence. And the credits cutscene didn’t suck, either 😂

[@viridian5maureen853]

My first movie in a theater after the lockdown was Thor: Love and Thunder. I'm so glad D&W took some of the taste of *that* away.

[@jwalkin660]

The movie was fun plain and simple. Its just something that you either love the style of humour or you hate it. I loved all the cameos even though I haven't seen their movies, even the surprise cameo, because I know how those films affected the superhero movie genre. But I get why some people didn't like it and thats fine too. I just loved this movie

[@Sayyble]

Saw this opening day in Canada with some friends and when wolverine insulted Canada everyone went OOHHHHHHHH And I was the loudest in the theater too don't worry :D

[@LoneLupine]

In the comics, Deadpool teams up with all sorts of Marvel characters (Thor, Spiderman, Wolverine [with all the bickering] etc) and also teams up with Deadpool Corps and goes universe/dimension hopping etc. So even if you've never watched the early Marvel movies, it was loyal to the comics too. If you're a fan of the comics, the cameos are still very nostalgic and relevant to how the comics play out, it's just a movie version of it. But of course even more meaningful if you're a fan of the early Fox marvel movies. I love Deadpool and Wolverine, so much to the point I hope they don't make any more Deadpool movies cuz nothing can top this. It's truly fantastic

[@Mariasouza-um8cx]

This movie was so incredible funny and well written. The fanservice was just *chef's kiss* and even I, who am not a die-hard Marvel fan, was absolutely loving it. Also SPOILER: DISNEY, MAKE A LADYPOOL SPIN-OFF SERIES, AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!!!

[@KaeMcSpadden]

It was so fun watching this in theaters, we were all laughing like crazy.

[@UnorthodoxIndividual]

Ngl I was not expecting Taylor Swift to be in the movie but I can’t say I was disappointed when she killed Magneto

[@iamawesome4026]

I watched the film on opening day and there was a packed theater. There was so many clapping and laughs in the film and cheers at the end

[@superkid801]

It was so much fun! I felt like a kid! That soundtrack especially that opening fits it perfectly to me. Love cameos and glad you had a good time

[@fsatmm]

seeing that classic cellspex happy avatar with a movie i had fun with is a great feeling!

[@geardog24]

Now if Cassandra Nova was the main antagonist of the new Marvel phase everyone would be happy.

[@NeverUseAnApostrophe]

Unironically, yes. I didn't care for her in this movie because I had no time to care about her, her powers, her backstory, etc. But she was interesting.

[@beywheelzhater8930]

@@NeverUseAnApostrophe yeah will admit cass was obviously made to be something for comic readers than movie watchers, but you gotta admit the scene where she was in wolverine’s mind was CHILLING The fact they actually allowed her to be overpowered as an Omega Level Mutant alone was marvelous, even if to my knowledge the comic book version was still more of a menace

[@TevyaSmolka]

Great review and honestly for me this movie was really awesome and badass

[@luisvalle81]

I think that this was a nice break from the current MCU movies it wasn’t lore heavy and it wasn’t setting up anything crazy it was just super fun and I think the movie experience helped with how much fun it was hearing people laugh and gasp when they got the references was just the best. And even though my brother didn’t get the cameos he turned to ask who they were and he actually got interested in watching the older fox movies overall definitely a great time with an even better tribute to those films

[@Princess_-gp3ep]

Seeing the 20th century Fox logo buried in sand made me sad, because Disney purchased the studio five years ago and made terrible changes, including shutting down blue sky Studios.

[@WhereMySmilingCrittersAt]

Deadpool intro is goated, same thing with the fight scenes I also wait for movies to go to streaming, the only one i WILL se OPENING NIGHT in the foreseeable future is the next fnaf movie

[@filipvadas7602]

The best praise I can give this movie is that even if Ryan and Hugh never reprise these roles again, I can accept it knowing that this was *that* satisfying of a bookend to these legendary characters. Its THAT good

[@leviandhisbae7375]

I was thinking the same thing while watching this, I went into the movie knowing it could never be as complex and all out as the second movie with Cable, that movie was just insane. But I also wasn't expecting such a thing. I looked to my sister and said, I could watch Deadpool and Wolverine bickering like this forever, so I didn't even really care much what happened in the movie, I just loved all their interactions so much. It was far from the action packed tension and drama in the second movie, but hey, we can still watch the second movie whenever we want, and I'd also never get tired of this one, so they did a good job in my book. Not all of them can be on the level of part two.

[@DuelaDent52]

It’s so refreshing to go from Crisis Part 3 wiping out beloved cartoons that have nothing to do with the rest of the trilogy for no reason other than thoughtless fanservice to this film where discarded universes fight for their right to continue existing because they still mattered and don’t deserve to be forgotten no matter how varying in quality their films were. Can they really be called cameos when they’re actual fully fledged side characters? Minor spoiler, but how come Domino and Cable didn’t show up to Deadpool‘s surprise party? Was there a reference to them I missed or were they just conspicuously absent?

[@Nazo-kage]

There was one scene in the movie that I remember at first just kind of scratching my head trying to figure out why Deadpool had so much knowledge and cared so much about the car. They were driving off in. It wasn’t until they finally got back to his own timeline that I realized it’s because he’s a car salesman at the beginning. Also, I don’t think it’s isn’t until the car fight scene, when Deadpool finally gets the staples out of his head. (no joke every time he took his mask off I noticed the staple and I kept wondering when was he going to find an office or desk any pulls that little alligator mouth tool that remove staples and just plucks them out)

[@hollowman7168]

People have been saying the villain is bad which confused the fuck out of me because I thought she was incredible.......and kinda hot

[@EyeZayUhArt]

Ngl i also didnt care for the villain. She was cool, but the way she was talking really annoyed me, couldnt tell you why tho lol just didnt hit for me

[@devofficialchannel]

She is intimidating, but besides her connection with Charles Xavier as the sort of "opposite twin", Cassandra Nova felt underdeveloped and generic compared to previous Deadpool villains who have a more personal connection and/or depth to their actions. Ajax is the one responsible for Wade's mutation and what kickstarts Deadpool's revenge while Russell became evil as a result of abuse and trauma from the orphanage he was raised and became a future villain towards Cable (who time travels because of that). Cassandra is just "I will destroy the entire multiverse for the lulz" and has zero personal connections to either Deadpool or Wolverine. If anything, Paradox is a better villain since it's him wanting to destroy the X-Men universe that kickstarts the main plot of Deadpool.

[@lakegroce685]

I haven’t been to an actual theater in over a year and despite all these great movies coming out, I haven’t felt inspired to go back. At home, I can pause if I have to go to the bathroom or wanna get a snack. I can rewind a scene when I miss something. I can put on subtitles so I can understand what is being said because modern movie dialogue is either too low or too fast for me to keep up with. The least theaters can do is have subtitles more. Accessibility for all types of movie goers should be considered more in general.

[@denmark1226]

The Deadpool in LEGO Marvel Superheros is the best that PG Deadpool has ever been

[@LocalTorchwoodIntern]

Also imo Ultimate Spider-man's Deadpool, that was my first exposure to the character !! say what you want about that cartoon but honestly his episode was so good

[@LuckyRabbit234]

The only crime this movie is guilty of is having an intro that’s so awesome it wildly overshadows the rest of the movie’s awesomeness.

[@comicalcosmonaut959]

It's a very messy movie but goddamnit it was a blast and i'd watch ten more times for good measure

[@timberwolfbrother]

I don't feel like this movie was TRYING to be a Deadpool 3, or have that same semi-serious plot, but rather just a love letter to the FOX movies while being a metacommentary on the current state of the MCU and setting up for more movies down the line, like saying, "HERE ARE THESE TOYS YOU CAN PLAY WITH AND MAKE A BUNCH OF MONEY!"

[@ghastlyghifin4029]

The opening credits were excellent, and I will admit that the during-credits sequence got me tearing up.

[@SwiftGundam]

0:00 - 0:13 Sounds like you were in my theater because everyone was like that. It made the movie so much more fun.

[@Futurebound_jpg]

I snorted so loud i embarrassed myself multiple times in the theatre 😂😂

[@lydiah12]

10:30 - Yes! It! Was!

[@Internatube]

Wow cellspex reviews a non-animated film?? We really are in a multiverse.

[@LocalTorchwoodIntern]

I'm also a kid of the 2000s Fox Marvel movies, mostly growing up with some of the late X-Men movies, both Fantastic 4s (even tho I have more familiarity to the one cameo that made me squee so hard than the 2010s one) and even the start OF what will become the MCU with the early Iron Man, Thor and Cap movies, it hit home to me seeing this cameos again. And seeing the other cameos from movies I've only seen in passing or maybe once or twice like Blade's trilogy or 03 Daredevil made me smile. And the credits definitely made me tear up, seeing every actor again, even in BTS footage and in clips. I can def look away from the flaws and just see it as a funny love letter to that era of Superhero films, and I wished we got more camp like that nowadays. ------------ Also has a fan of the main X-men cameo that wasnt X23, who has witnessed how production hell his movie was and it never got to see the light of day, it was nice to finally have him on screen. He was the character I never thought I would see on the big screen and most especially played by that actor. And that they actually played him not as a joke, like most people who prolly only heard of him before maybe X-men 97 / any of the video games. I literally almost teared up during that whole fight scene, like holy shit thats my boy !!

[@Vavalry]

As someone who grew up on the twist cameo, I already saw it coming a mile away but I was no less hyped when it happened.
