Film Theory: Exposing Deadpool's SECRET Identity!

[@tehawsumninja]

You know, sometimes you click on these vids and think: "Okay MatPat, how are you gonna stretch your findings today?" and then you watch the video and you've eaten twelve bags of popcorn, finished a 6 pack of soda, and chewed off all your finger nails trying to find a way to prove that one of the most boring writers in American history is not actually an undead superhero but you can't and you are seriously questioning everything you once believed is true.

[@cri420]

tehawsumninja easy he's been proven to be a knock off of death stroke, so he'd has to be Wade Wilson since Slade Wilson is DeathStroke, plus another commenter pointed out that in the summary deadpool blatantly critizes the book which Hemingway would never do because of his Massive Ego

[@ariannasmith14]

Clap and a half. Tip of the fedora to you good..sir...miss...attack helicopter...whatever you are.

[@BeinIan]

Cri Just because he was inspired by Deathstroke, doesn't mean he can't have a different backstory. I don't know if I'm convinced of this theory, but your argument doesn't disprove it.

[@Onsvaltti]

[@Nabuchodonozord]

Because you can compare being able to drive a car to shooting enemies hidden in bushes, most of which are ghillie'd and smaller than a grain of salt on the horizon, barely discernible. Of fucking course driving a car doesn't have as strict eyesight requirement, not to mention he can have glasses while driving a car, but can't have em on the battlefield. Dropping them while running, jumping, proning, jumping to the ground. Did I mention potential injury when someone punches him in the glasses?

[@Risotis]

Most of that show is self-explained lol. Sure it makes you think, but not about "but what if he was really the dog the entire time?" or whatever. Just moral implications and whatnot.

[@snow8980]

In addition to what the other two replies said, the show doesn’t take place in a universe that is static. Each universe is a different take on real science and technology, so he’d have to pick and choose episodes to theorize upon- unless, of course, the theory is that they’re interconnected somehow.

[@jamiestpaul791]

Actually Black Mirror is a goldmine for this channel, the theory being: are they all set in the same universe? We see someone with the user name I_AM_WALDO in the episode white Christmas, which is one episode after The Waldo Moment and the Z-Eyes are a recurrent tech that pops up in many episodes and in different forms. There's honestly a rly good essay trying to connect the dots in that show. Also, the last episode of season 4, The Black Museum, I wont type any spoilers because it's only just come out but it rly adds to the theory that it's all one universe.

[@jamiestpaul791]

Actually this rly got me thinking. Black Mirror spoilers ahead----> So the hacker(s?) in Shut up and Dance develop an advanced dating app that collects information about the user and runs simulations to find a perfect partner, in order to fund their campaign to expose paedophiles and adulterers. The tech for this app is further evolved into the cookies in White Christmas by the hacker(s?) who at this point have gained a huge level of control over the modern world through blackmail. They carry out various deeds during the mid 21st century including blackmailing the government of the U.K. into setting up a torture prison/ theme park, getting the Prime Minister to fuck a pig on national television and shutting down a company trying to manufacture tracking devices for children. During this time developers around the world discover the tech in the dating app and reverse code it to make their own products that are seen in the episodes: The entire History of You, Be Right Back, Playtest, San Junipero and the memory scanner seen in Crocodile. Seeing a need for massive global change the hacker(s?) engineer the plot of The Waldo Moment to happen, and then follow it up by pulling off the events of Hated in the Nation. The mass killings that occur cause widespread panic and emergency measures are put in place to control the internet. This snowballs into the world we see a short glimpse of at the very end of The Waldo Moment. With global resources limited but a desire for the world to stay the same the global Waldo Uprising creates a situation where a large portion of the world's population is living like we see in Men Against Fire, and a lucky elite live in a world like we see in Nosedive, kept in line by a social media big brotheresque fear of being 'disliked'. Over some more decades this evolves into the two worlds we see in Metalhead and Fifteen Million Merits, with soldiers no longer being tricked into killing with V.R. and simply using robot 'Dogs' to hunt down and kill the undesirables, and the elitist culture of Nosedive transforming into a seedy, greedy culture of reality T.V. and pornography. Most of this theory got pinned together by thinking that the events of Metalhead weren't an apocalypse but just an extension of the plot of Men Against fire and I worked back from there. Probably full of holes so please please please watch all 4 seasons of Black Mirror if you haven't yet and make this theory better. Hugs etc.

exactly what i was thinking lolz

[@PencilSticks]

How do you convince me of these things, Mat? How??

[@VelmiArtrid]

first

[@haylietucker3978]

It's like MatPat could tell me I'm made from soap and I would believe him

[@homer9736]

haylie tucker well technically you can make soap from human body fat so...

[@Dan-bq3rd]

Of course, your made of soap what else would you be made of skin, bones, nerves,cells come on soap the way

[@BurningFyre]

Surely a simpler solution is that Wade grew up reading Hemmingway and idoled him, resulting in him developing similar personality traits and, according to the movie, unlocking a power he thought his idol had. Itd also explain why he has so much interest in controlling his narrative: he wants to be as good as Hemmingway.

[@TheSteelmushroom]

But then what about his friend that was genetically bounded to him that made a island

[@Oscar-rx1gd]

TheSteelmushroom maybe Deadpool told Cable about the brother and gave Cable the idea to build an island

[@actualmadscientist]

BurningFyre I actually like your interpretation more than the video.

[@ZebulonZ]

Well couldn't Deadpool be the comic book version of Ernest Hemmingway?

[@BurningFyre]

TheSteelmushroom That is a big coincidence, but thats really it. Maybe Wade gave Cable the idea, or maybe it just happened that way.

[@mettatonsagent7541]

I never noticed until watching this how ridiculously muscular some artists draw Deadpool in comics like look closer at all the images it’s crazy

[@corbindempster5852]

Damn.Ernest Hemmingway was a badass.

[@Biscuitsdefortune]

Hemingway also had a huge tendancy to piss off everyone, yes Fitzgerald, but he really pissed off Gertrude Stein too by keeping wanting to hang out with her even though she didn't like him anymore.

[@cuckerinokripperino4216]

Not how it happened bud, he pissed her off by wanting to be in the middle of the action and warfront. She thought her writers should sit back and observe, this is when she first starts writing about how Hemingway was like a little kid throwing a fit. In 1933 Stein writes a book and in it she talks about how Hemingway deep down is just a yellow belly and etc things. Hemingway then publishes about her being a lesbian after that they never had anything to do with each other. Ive never heard about this "theory" of him wanting to hang out with her and she didnt like him no more can you provide some kind of link that shows where you got it from?

[@vulpinedeity3379]

Like DP and Spidey.

[@Biscuitsdefortune]

Haven't read Gertrude Stein's piece on Hemingway (although having read a lot of books by her), but the theory of him trying to make out with Stein was explore in «Alice & Gertrude, Natalie & Renée et ce cher Ernest» a play by Jovette Marchessault (in french) written and perform in 1984 (there is a printed version I read). Since it's a work of fiction (a prosopopoeia where Renée Vivien, Alice Toklas, Natalie Barney, Gertrude Stein and Ernest Hemingway meet at the same place and Hemingway bothering them all :p ), they are maybe more nuance to it than I might have put in my first comment. Thanks for correcting me. But he really look like a Deadpool in that play :p

[@danielgrala7538]

soooo... are we just gonna sweep the fact that matpat states "no I have not RECENTLY consumed LSD" under the carpet? 😂😂😂

[@azamat3717]

Daniel Grala i believe the second question asked him by us was "Have you RECENTLY consumed LSD?" Therefore he would only need to say that he hasn't consumed LSD recently.

[@Vamilator7165]

Well he came up with the name MatPat so I'm not really surprised

[@miguelzavaleta1911]

LSD is not that uncommon of a drug. Relatively safe and with no side effects -- chances are if you were a stoner in college, you tried it at least once.

[@narindersingh-xz7ov]

[@matt6001]

*SPOILER ALERT* Mr. MatPat sir, I have a question/recommendation. I know pirates of the Caribbean is an alright franchise but one thing has never been addressed in the series. Jack sparrow's iconic compass is actually like something special. It points to where the holder truly wants to go/find. SPOILER ALERT, in the newest movie when held by one of the main characters, not jack sparrow, it points to his long lost daughter because as he said he is looking for a family/home. And when this character wanted to find Sparrow it pointed him in the direction of Sparrow. So this compass is obviously enchanted. So I have a question because I know you like to dig deep and overthink things, every time jack sparrow holds the compass it points somewhere * obviously * but keep in mind that it is enchanted or something. My question is, what is jack sparrow truly looking for. I know he has not found it yet because at the end of the new movie he opens it and it points to some direction and looks at it thoughtfully. I think it would be an interesting theory and would love to hear your thoughts. Maybe I'm just overthinking it but you never know. Also to anyone who has read this far, thank you for reading. Sincerely me.

[@josej948]

You're definately not overthinking it, Cool theory dude

[@ErikGarcia07]

Mattdawg32 This would be a good video

[@lemonlime9073]

Mattdawg32 jack has apparently used the compass enough to convince it what he wants and it points him wherever he convinces it... At worlds end pretty much shows that

[@katiekamatie3292]

So you're telling me that one of America's most boring writers had one of the most badass life. WTH MATPAT!?!?!

[@cosmos1282]

Katie kamatie makes you wonder why Hemingway didn't just write about his own life.

[@feliciaamore1105]

Commander quisitor he did. he wrote an autobiography. where he proceeded to overexagerate his already badass life. because he could.

[@DwRockett]

Commander quisitor funnily enough, Hemingway actually did. He was a very prolific memoir writer, especially among similar caliber writers

[@evan7337]

Commander quisitor Well... he did actually

[@Sasu123456789x1]

Awesome right 😂

[@Welcometotheslam5424]

Ernest didn't even have to glamorize himself in those autobiographies, he's already a fucking giga-chad based on the sheer amount of stuff he's survived.

[@ZoidsBN0]

I would back Comic Theory. Anyone else?

[@SurotaOnishi]

I think he'd need more video editors and maybe a research team but I'd totally back that shit. Dude should open up a Patreon or some kind of fundraiser

I'm thinking that professor x can be the fish. since Logan was trying so hard to save him from the disease and the enemies (his disease and enemies are the sharks) and finally the enemies got him after Logan trying so hard to save him.

[@altyaltyalt]

TsmJ17 nice

[@leomoe433]

I prefer Ernest Hemingway. Seems like a more legit, logical and possible explanation

[@eduardolarrymarinsilva76]

But Logan never attempted to "beat" Xavier. Also when Santiago returns ashore he gets praise for the feat, which Logan does not. Also Santiago does not die trying to protect Mandolin.

[@lumberjackmagnum7416]

Well, you're not the only one who created an interpretation of the Old Man and the Sea. The entire book is an allegorical autobiography.

[@kittycornflamingo3877]

What if deadpool was designed after Ernest Hemingway.

[@BraedenHough]

Maybe Deadpool isn’t Hemingway, but is based off of him which would make more sense, because they referenced his book at the end of the trailer, telling us that Deadpool was inspired by Hemingway? Idk just a thought

[@Steerre]

Braeden Hough just a theory, a film theory

[@Raven_The_Unkind]

How do you make a character inspired from a guy that already exist in your comic universe?

[@pearcyjackson280]

Because Deadpool is totally not a rip-off of Deathstroke.

Something else to note: there was a Deadpool story line where he went through literary classics and killed the heroes.

[@festethephule7553]

You mean the Deadpool kills the multiverse thing?

[@jestevez36]

it could be alluding to how Ernest beefed with his contemporaries.

[@doublet147]

As a "recent subscriber" to the channel (hence the post on a 4 year old video). I must say: "Congratulations on yet another entertaining episode". You create a world of ancillary connections that are wonderful in design! The speed at which your narration & video edits are experienced, help sell your debated point of view. It actually creates discussion on specific aspects/details (bigger picture thinking would stymie discussion/argument). It's an amazing construct you have created. I am entertained! Continue forward. You have created gold.

I wonder if Ryan is watching this like "wtf..." 🤣🤣

[@calgumbo5193]

MatPat please make Comic Theory a thing. there are so many reasons as to why this works. One there are many theories from Comic Books that would be great if you highlighted. two i am writing my own comic books which will be sprinkled with hidden things for local theorists. we need Comic Theory. Also Christ on a bike that theory tho

[@PopoSimTalia]

You know... if my teacher told me a bit more how his life was bad ass maybe I would have read the books with a bit more interest.

[@PopoSimTalia]

But isnt it strange how contrasting his books are to his life? Its like he wanted to write boring things because he never experienced. XD

[@roboticzamat]

It could be a parallel between Wolverine and his movies, not just Logan and X21? That's what I took it for....

[@cjdem4009]

So now we have the idea for MUSIC theory, CONSPIRACY theory, and COMIC theory... all of which I would totally watch.

Could you do a theory on _The Flash_, or your old Slenderman one?

[@anthonypishos6919]

Joseph Simpson what would he do a theory about o the flash

[@StephTheory]

maybe one of those "How to kill (insert hero name here)" theories, because personally i'm pretty sure the Flash would be experiencing enough force to kill him every time he stops running

[@kaylar.8126]

[@juancasinisterra]

if you manage to patent rubber bands that stretch as much as this theory, you'd make millions

[@madchu7]

JC S yup. so I'm gonna phrase the simple questions that debunk most of matpats theories. how, and why? how did Ernest Hemingway end up in a situation to receive DNA from wolverine? why would anybody risk turning somebody so conspicuous into a superhero? after all, you'd be able to see upon researching it "oh, Deadpool showed up about the same time Hemingway died/disappeared/gained superpowers, secret identity EXPOSED" ...so, making him a superhero doesn't really work.

[@donovan6391]

he actually answers the how did hemingway end up in that situation, he was a man that wanted to join the military whether by government or outsourced methods if someone offered to make him superhuman to be able to fight in the war at the time he probably would i mean look what he did to his boat so there's the how question answered, and the why answer is that at the time he wasn't famous in that time period so why wouldn't they with a man so willing to do anything to fight the enemy and relatively unknown at the time its possible. now dose this mean he is or isn't who knows i just answered you plot points cause they bugged me. hope you like my reasoning!

[@madchu7]

donovan6391 it works I guess, but just fixing his bad eyesight (the reason he couldn't join) seems less conspicuous and more practical as far as a reason for human experimentation, as opposed to turning him into an uncontrollable, all powerful mutant. I'd have to do more research to see if Hemingway had written books at the time he supposedly would have gotten hooked up with wolverine DNA, but I see your point, but respond saying that there's no reason to pick someone so arrogant and unstable for your superhero. I mean, who's to say he wouldn't turn on you?

[@donovan6391]

and i respond with when has the human race ever been "reasonable" in anything we do if we do something it usually has to be done as big as possible. and that is the exact reason to pick him he would be easy to control and all they would have to do is point him at the enemy and wait then pick up the pieces after wards (i don't say this to be callous but remember we were at war so compassion went out the window) they wouldn't be trying to create a superhero but a super soldier a weapon on the scale of the a-bomb to end the war asap to minimize death toll.

[@juancasinisterra]

Mrcat Fishman such a smart response. It really speaks volumes of you and your capabilities
