Huge Ackman needs to reprise his role as the Wolverine

[@bbcradio1]

We need that Wolverine / Deadpool crossover.

[@thewhiterex7327]

So he gets more hate and overcritcisim?

[@lwaves]

@@bbcradio1 That would be the only reason I'd be interested in him returning. He was fantastic as Wolverine but, as he said himself, the character is done with him playing it. He can't keep playing the same character over and over. Some fans need to accept that.

[@lwaves]

@@Coffeetime110 It would be cool to see that crossover but I suspect the closest we'll get is the bit in the credits scene of Deadpool 2.

I think he's lost some of the bulk that he needed for when he played Logan. He doesn't need that 'buffness' anymore so he looks thinner.

I know! I had to check the date again because I thought this must be an old video. But tbf they did rough him up a bit for Logan lol

Queens Birthday is the day off because we're all supposed to be taking gifts to her. They give every Commonwealth country their own date to gift because there were too many gifters to receive in one day. Basically it's monarch tax day and every citizen was expected to give. Kind of wicked to mention it really. 😅

The Queen learned to avoid "social media" back in the 50's... I'm sure she has NO idea what people are doing to celebrate her unless she has to sit at a picture or something.

[@optimisticwhovian1726]

Yes as an Aussie myself I never did understand why we have a separate day for the Queen's Birthday but then Australians will use literally any excuse for a pubic holiday.

[@sakuramari]

Yeah, I also wondered why she had 2 birthdays every year. On our calendars, she has an official birthday separately from her real birthday.

[@TheDrexxus]

The reason is for convenience of the public. Her widely celebrated birthday was selected for a time of year with better weather conditions and such since there tends to be a lot of outdoor festivities involved with it, especially on big, important birthdays like her diamond jubilee. There are parades, enormous crowd gatherings, etc. They don't want the public suffering ill weather while celebrating.

[@CallistoTheWarriorQueen]

@@TheDrexxus I wonder why Australia has the second Monday of June then, the weather is pretty rubbish here then as it's the start of Winter. Plus in Western Australia they have a different date again haha

[@OrangeTabbyCat]

Who doesn’t remember their own birthday???

[@jnuy764]

She was surprised that Australia was celebrating it. XD

[@TheMoonRover]

It wasn't her actual birthday. Her real birthday is 21st April, but most of the commonwealth celebrates it on the second Monday in June. That tradition was started by a past monarch whose birthday was in November when the weather is poor.

[@markp8438]

Woof,.

[@markleon411]

Yeah and her birthday is not even in June.

[@margaretjames2790]

The Queen was of course born on 21 April, but the Commonwealth celebrates the monarch's birthday (every monarch) in June. Hence Hugh Jackman's reference to Australia celebrating the official birthday of the Queen in June.

[@markleon411]

@@margaretjames2790 yes, it was the birthday of Queen Victoria but it was decided to leave the date and not change it everytime there was a different monarch.

[@Mav_F]

Some of us Australians know its her Birthday in April and why is it celebrated in June? The Government decided when she became the Queen to have it in June because of Anzac Day 25th April and Easter falling in April most of the time, they decided that April had too many holidays. We use to have a holiday on the Kings Birthday but that was before my time and the decision on the Queen was before my time also but held in June since 1788 in Australia when the first fleet landed in Sydney but is more known back then as the King of Great Britain - Monarch's Birthday, so that goes for all Kings and Queens they have it will be on the same day. That was decided after King George iV died to remain that day forever. lol But I know the history of it and I am not even from an Australian background.

Perfect example of why the common wealth should get rid of the monarchy. No more govern generals and no more paying millions of tax payers money to the royal family

[@ScrivenerofDoom]

The taxpayers don't pay for the Royal Family. That is a myth. Check out the Crown Estates for accurate information.
