[@toddvergith9485]

Fun fact Ryan Renalds warned the director that the fans were going to hate what they did to the Deadpool character in this film and was he ever right. Thank god he was able to get Fox to greenlight the 1st Deadpool movie.

[@amadeusagripino6862]

Ryan Reynolds lobbyied for years for the Deadpool movie to be made. I remember when Green Lantern movie was in production, the only thing Ryan Reynolds talked about was Deadpool movie.

[@ct6852]

It's the continuity stuff that bothers me. This version of Deadpool worked for this particular movie, I think. All of the humor/snark/meta stuff wouldn't have fit the tone very well.

[@ssss6572]

The dumbest person on the planet could have told you that this version of Deadpool was gonna suck. But apparently, someone at Fox couldn’t figure it out.

[@sjuthberg]

And he only managed to do that because 'someone' leaked the test-fotage, and it exploded on youtube. There was a similar situation with Sonic. The fans hated the original design of him. But the studio actually listened to the fans and fixed it, while media hated that they were catering to "the toxic fandom". But as Henry Cavill said, the fandoms aren't toxic, their passionate about what they love. Otherwise they wouldn't be fans. That was kind of something George RR Martin also commented on I think. How certain writers/producers can't leave well enough alone, but has to make stories "their own" and "improve" them (ie. ruining the stories). thinking they know better than the actual creators did when they created the stories... It is essentially a matter of to many people in Hollywood and mainstream media suffering from hubris and/or being narcissists.

[@ct6852]

@@sjuthberg The complete Deadpool experience would've totally overwhelmed this movie. All in all it worked out for the best. He needed a solo movie for a real introduction to the vibe and character. I think they did listen to the fans it just came a bit later with Ryan Reynold's help.

[@TNEagan]

While it's not the best movie in the world, Liev Schreiber as Victor Creed is a FANTASTIC performance.

[@JDP5127]

Indeed. I love this movie just for giving us Liev Schreiber as Victor/Sabertooth.

[@danieltodd9038]

Liev Shreiber is good in everything he's in. Very underrated actor. Spring Forward with him and Ned Beatty is a nice dialogue driven drama.

[@celestinomoya4470]

Yeah. Super versatile actor. So talented!

It really is crazy with how many x movies we have had we havent had more than the 1 minute of gambit

[@MandoTex7500]

As someone who loved the cartoon from the 90s, that's what bothered me about these movies. Just a brief appearance of Gambit and Cyclops wasn't a main character like he should have been. Wolverine is still my favorite X-Men but the rest of the characters were also important.

[@NadeemShekh-uy9zn]

Channing Tatum almost starred in and produced a Gambit movie for the fox X-Men movies universe but it got canceled when Disney bought fox his rumored to make a cameo in deadpool and wolverine

[@bmriverrat11]

I agree I know Wolverine is a fan favorite but almost the entire live action is franchise based on him very little shown to the other X-Men

[@calebgriffy4585]

Let's hope that rumor is true that Channing Tatum will have a cameo as a Gambit variant in Deadpool and Wolverine.

[@ChristopherPayneMUA]

We've officially reached the point in the series when you have to stop trying to make sense of the continuity, because the filmmakers stop caring. Going forward I expect there were a lot of studio conversations that went like this: "We want to do this for the next movie." "Yeah, but that contradicts what we did in the last one." "Who cares?" Wolverine, Cyclops, Deadpool and a few other characters will literally have multiple origin stories throughout the franchise. They even make fun of the fact in the Deadpool movies. Just go with it.

You were talking to your sister at the moment, but did you notice the boy on ice with one green eye and one blue? That was Stryker’s son from X2, the one he was using to control Professor X.

[@paulp9274]

They don't sedate him because they can't. Wolverine's healing factor makes him immune to drugs and poisons.

[@Supadrumma441]

@@Rocket_Man232 In the Logan timeline the food industry genetically modified the foods to weaken and eventually obliterate the mutant x gene. Logan was perfectly fine until the food weakened his healing factor. Before then he was able to simply out heal the poison.

[@LoganBluth]

@@w1975b I think the writers just use it as an "as needed" rule. You wouldn't think he could be knocked out for more than a few seconds, but in X1 he gets knocked out for at least a few hours when Sabretooth hits him with a big stick. Haha

[@w1975b]

@@LoganBluth guess you could say having to fight/heal the adamantium every minute might contribute to a delay in healing other things.

[@LoganBluth]

@@w1975b Eh, healing from a brain injury is the same mechanically as healing from lacerations on the skin - You get knocked out when your brain bounces off the inside of your skull causing physical damage to your brain tissue. So Logan's brain tissue repairing itself is no different to his skin healing from massive lacerations. Also, he gets shot in the head in X2 and that only puts him out for a few seconds. Hell, he gets shot literally through the brain in this one and he's only out for a couple of minutes at most. Honestly, the internal continuity of these films, from timelines, to character ages, to how their powers work, are a complete mess, so you just kind of have to go with whatever the current film says and not try to explain previous installments.

[@reggiebrown9508]

I don't care what people say about the movie but going thru the different wars is one of the best comic book movie openings.

[@leegutierrez1562]

When they're looking for the adamantium in Africa, there's a split second where you can see a little girl with white hair run behind Victor, that would be Storm. Remember, Victor is Sabertooth, the one who attacks Rogue and Logan after Logan finds her hitchhiking on his trailer in the first X-Men movie. This version of Deadpool isn't the same one as the ones from his own movies, though they do retcon it for the prequel movies.

[@timmooney7528]

The meteorites in Africa are technically Vibranium. Adamantium is an artificially synthesized alloy intended to be a substitute for the rare Vibranium. Main difference is Vibranium can absorb all vibrational energies, while adamantium is virtually indestructible.

[@AaronLitz]

@@timmooney7528 Adamantium was the result of metallurgist Myron MacLain's attempt to reproduce the unknown indestructible vibranium-steel alloy he had developed that became Cap's shield. He wasn't sure exactly what was in in because he'd been working for days and fell asleep during an experiment, and while he was asleep something happened that he could never reproduce. It isn't quite as indestructible as Cap's shield, but _almost._

[@ianjardine7324]

As far as fans are concerned Deadpool in this movie is not Deadpool they took far to many liberties with the character and within the community that was just unacceptable as he is as beloved as wolverine for many of the same reasons he's a darker more complex character than most in the MCU with a real sense of depth and tragedy rarely seen in superheroes. The version Ryan plays in the standalone movies is far closer to the source material a barely sane immortal who knows he's just a character in a strange story like universe who quite often just wishes he could die.

They talked about it in the first X-men film. “His healing factor makes his cells die a lot slower, which makes his age impossible to determine. He may very well be older than you Professor” is basically what was said. Yes his powers are the healing/regeneration and bone claws. They added the Adamantium later because he could survive it.

[@matthewdunham1689]

Nobody kills you but me. That’s a classic comicbook trope. Signifying the love hate relationship of heroes and their archenemies many of the time. ❤😂

[@cinephgeeek]

Sabertooth actually tracks down Logan every year on his birthday and kicks his ass. It's like tradition

[@jollygoodfellow3957]

They can't put James/Logan under anesthesia because his healing factor is so strong that it metabolizes drugs super quickly. So he has to go through adamantium bonding while feeling everything.

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

Good to know.

[@osmanyousif7849]

Only big plothole I have with this though is, why didn’t they give the bullets to Agent Zero after. If Stryker was really that smart, he’d have realized to keep them on the most accurate shot marksmen in case things go south and Logan tries anything. Seriously, can you imagine if when he woke up and broke free, Zero shot him with the adamantium bullet?

Okay so wolverine was in fact a kind of Black Ops. specialist before joining the X Men. He worked for a secret military operation and he started using the slogan "I'm the best at what I do; and what I do isn't very nice."

Ryan Reynolds fought tooth and nail to get Fox to make an accurate Deadpool movie, made a screen test, Fox passed on the movie, the screen test got leaked and fan reactions to that screen test helped green light the move we all know as Deadpool in 2016 which is a really close representation of the source material.

[@timmooney7528]

IIRC in the 2016 film he has an action figure version of Deadpool with the sword blades in his arms.

[@passionsquietrage]

There's a post credit scene that set up this version of Deadpool(the hate for which makes no sense) to return as an accurate version, but people (including Ryan himself) couldn't be patient and let that happen for some reason.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

He definitely wasn't a "long time" fan. Someone told him the comic made a joke about him and that's when he found out about the character. He only started reading DP because he was cast in the movie. He talked about it a lot when the first DP movie was coming out. And it's definitely a "more" accurate DP but it's still wildly off from the actual DP comic.

34:40 -- Scott Summer's power isn't actually energy generation; rather, he taps into an extra-dimensional energy that manifests through him as plasmic blasts via his eyes. So his power can never actually be exhausted in the conventional sense.

Wasn't the idea that Dog Logan and Sabretooth were to be one and the same, but it was later abandoned to keep Sabretooth's air of mystery? I think (probably incorrectly) that, as of the most recent continuity I am aware of, Logan killed Sabretooth's sister prompting the latter to seek revenge.

You two should watch the 90s cartoon. I think you’d love it. And the continuation X-Men 97 If you didn’t see it pointed out in the comments before, Victor is Sabretooth from the first movie. So he’s gone. Also, him and Logan being confirmed brothers is original to these movies.

This movie is a mix between 2 Wolverine comics. “Wolverine Origins” (the opening scene) & “Weapon X”. And I think, while not at all perfect, they blend them together well. Heck, Sabretooth has such an amazing origin in this. Also, a lot of people forgot just how evil Deadpool was before he went through his redemption arc to become the antihero we know now. Before Cable, Domino, Wolverine, & Spider-Man inspired him to be a better person, he was arguably one of the more evil Marvel supervillains, with literally MILLIONS of men, women, & children’s deaths he’s responsible for (he was a herald for Galactus for a bit as well)

I like most of the audience don't read superhero comics. I know the basics of a number of the classic super heroes, but don't know the varied story lines over the years.

Quick summary answer to some of your questions / observations: -Victor Creed, Logan's brother, is someone you have seen before. He is Sabretooth, the guy who jumped Logan and Rogue in the snow in X1 and worked for Magneto. -The Deadpool movie even makes fun of this version of Wade a couple of times, and a post credit scene of Deadpool 2 directly references it. -Xavier and Magnetos friendship / falling out is fleshed out in the X Men First Class series of movies. -The hobbit in question was Merri -Scott needs special quartz tinted lenses to filter his power out and see. -Fun fact: "the island" is three mile island in the United States, which has a nuculear power plant that had a real accident. The movie is suggesting this was the reason.

Sabretooth is a sadist psychopath and is not Logan’s brother, he used to tease Wolverine that he’s his father, but he ain’t. Deadpool’s mutation is an incredible healing factor… more than Wolverines. Wolverine had his memory repeatedly erased when he was a government operative.
