I'd like to think I have a rep for trying to write organized and thoughtful film reviews, and more often than not, I do so in cases when I'm moved enough by a movie that I feel the need to respond, or likewise, when a film is so much in the mainstream that people can't NOT talk about it.

I kind of expected this to suck from the trailer, but man this sounds worse. Plus casting Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool pissed me off to begin with. Stupid Hollywood.

The opening sequence with Ryan Reynolds pre-Deadpool surgery is actually the only other awesome moment in the movie. And he's pretty good at the smart-ass killer thing. But they use so little of him and then in the end he's some ridiculous combo-mutant with thirty eight different powers. i don't know. i could be wrong, but i wasn't aware of him being able to do any of the other stuff. bullshit.

i haven't seen wolverine yet and i probably won't. i hated x3 so much. plus what i've heard about how they are ret-conning the hell out of everything so that it's no longer even remotely wolverine's back story. why do they make sabretooth his brother? fuck that. the point of wolverine's past is he keeps running into characters that all are reminiscent of each other. he has three major archetypal figures that run throughout his life: red-headed lady, japanese lady, big bully with sideburns.

and deadpool has 1 power, his healing factor. which exists in a constant state of healing because he has a horrible cancer that is consuming him at all times. his healing factor is the only thing that keeps him from dying, but he is ugly and scarred as well. plus he's fucking insane. he has split personalities and confuses his delusions with reality. that's a good character right there. why fuck with that.

FUCK two guys a girl and a mercenary

you should have capitalized Native American.

i'm convinced druska should have played young wolverine and/or all the characters in the film whenever they're shaving. is there much shaving in the film?
