Deadpool 3

[Coola Yagami]

So who was that one burly Tugboat looking guy among all the people on Cassandra's side? He seemed way too prominent to be just some random dude.

It has to be The Russian.

Last seen in the Thomas Jane Punisher movie played by Kevin Nash.

So how similar is this Wolverine from what we've seen in previous movies? He has some flashbacks to some previous ones, so I assume their histories line up somewhat.

He doesn't have any flashbacks to any previous ones (but the movie itself does). Still, he seems like he has a pretty much the same history as the main Fox-Men Wolverine except he came back to the X-Mansion drunk on the wrong day once.

Then why were there clips from previous movies when Cassandra Nova was poking around in his head if those aren't his memories?

Mostly cause his Weapon X stuff happened pretty much the same way.

I had a lot of fun with this, and a lot of that had to do with the fact that it's making fun of its world so much.

If Deadpool and Wolverine takes place in 2024 and Logan in 2029 does that mean there's now two Logans and two Laura's in Deadpool's universe?

[XERO]

I just wanna say...

Wolverine's monologue to Deadpool in the car was some of Hugh's finest acting. Story-wise, it takes a LOT to shut Wade up, and that rant by Logan managed to do just that. It might be my favorite scene in the entire movie, because everyone in the theater was QUIET.

And you follow that up with the most epic fight.

It's a literal contest between giving people what the want or giving people something they never really asked for.

People have been wanting a Deadpool/Wolverine team up since forever, and they've wanted Hugh to play Wolverine one more time.

Nobody wanted a Captain Marvel sequel. Nobody.

Surprised they didn't respect the "Wizard of Oz" compliment regarding getting the multiverse right the first time around.

They hate it because it appealed to normal, well-adjusted society. If it didn't then they would have called it 'queer coding'. F these people and their nonsense.

It's pretty surprising how well that team worked. Even Elektra got to shine and look cool, 20 years later.

I am just happy seeing a Gambit that looks like Gambit.

Also Ryan Reynolds is trying to get Wesley Snipes an old man Blade movie

https://i.imgur.com/DQLjbFR.png

[Andrew NDB]

All they need to do is soft-merge the existing Blade movies into the MCU. Like, who's to say the Wesley Snipes Blade wasn't doing his thing from 1998 to 2004 in the MCU? And then in the new Blade movie, make the Mahershala Ali Blade his nephew or something, with Uncle Blade still given a scene or two to sink his teeth into.

[Andrew NDB]

There was "A conversation" about including Nicolas Cage's Ghost Rider.

https://comicbook.com/marvel/news/deadpool-wolverine-ryan-reynolds-conversation-including-nicolas-cage-ghost-rider/?fbclid=IwY2xjawEeCnhleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHajOgaigs9BI wdaVX5ecW8wzDk_A6mLO7OLdQQAb92uK3ZKG0LL2XuajkA_aem _Ki35vm0303L0e2c_48wTIQ

I do think they should have included a Punisher, probably the Thomas Jayne version. Some of the Blade bits in the movie (particularly with the bazooka), I wonder if they were originally intended for Punisher.

[oldmanwinters]

Cage Ghost Rider would have been amazing! Imagine him riding across the desert alongside the Honda!

I would be partial to Dolph Lundgren myself. And then HE could have been the one to steal the Guinness World Record (https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/blade-wesley-snipes-guinness-world-records-deadpool-wolverine/story?id=112582291#:~:text=Snipes%20first%20played %20the%20half,25%20years%20and%20340%20days.) away from Jackman instead of Snipes. :lol:

[Andrew NDB]

He just wouldn't make as much sense as Thomas Jayne for that whole late 90s/early 2000s pre-MCU Marvel pioneering motif. Which is what they were going for.

Saw this today, it was great. Almost all the jokes landed (granted the constant sex/blow-job jokes did wear thin by the last third of the movie), but everything else was great. Had a lot of heart in the right places too and everything worked. Hugh Jackman just nails it as Wolverine every time he comes back, he did some of his best acting in this movie. The scene in the car telling Wade to shut up and the fight scene, then the scene at the end when Cassandra was plowing through his mind.

Loved seeing all the Fox-universe characters come back, would have loved if Patrick Stewart got to make a real appearance but perhaps they couldn't get him in time. I'm actually really glad to see X-23 back in particular and with the same actress who is now 5+ years older in real life, it was nice to see her role honored like that. And Logan's Wolverine really did stay dead and didn't get revived which would have ruined the ending to that movie so glad they didn't do it.

The blind black woman is as funny as ever too. Cassandra was a good villain and I liked Gambit as well. I also have to say the ending credits showing behind the scenes footage of the earliest X-men and Fox movies was so nostalgic. I can't recall if that stuff was ever on the old DVDs but seeing stuff from literally the year 1999/2000 when it was filmed in 2024 is surreal. Really makes you realize how damn long Hugh Jackman has been around, pre-dates both the MCU and even the old Spider-man movies.

And yeah, Disney is keeping Hugh Jackman until he's 90. We're definitely seeing him again and again, there is no going back. Even if they cast a new Logan in the X-men reboots, they'll still keep Hugh Jackman alongside whoever new they cast.

[Andrew NDB]

They've said at no point was there ever any consideration to include Patrick Stewart. Which is probably good. He'd just say yes.

I think the general idea is to introduce the MCU Wolverine eventually... but Jackman can be the multiversal "Old Man Logan" at some point. Which it seems like the comics are already doing.

[CyberCubed]

It's a nice send-off to the whole pre-MCU Fox-era Marvel movies. Funnily enough, the old Fantastic Four Movies, Daredevil/Elektra, Blade, etc. never actually had any continuity with all the X-men films, yet this movie made it seem like they were all in a shared universe. Kind of funny to think about if they all were.

In a way it makes the whole beginning of the Marvel world date back now to 1998 when Blade 1 came out. If you wanted to do a full series watch from the start, now Blade 1 is the beginning and not either Iron Man (2008 ) or even Spider-man (2002) or even X-men 1 (2000).

Goddamn, they just sort made all the pre-MCU movies "matter" now.

[Andrew NDB]

I admit, after Deadpool 3 I have a hankering to do a marathon of all of those movies. Not the X-Men movies (I've seen those enough), but Fantastic Four, Blade, Daredevil and Elektra, etc..

Deadpool & Wolverine’ Struts Past $1B Global Box Office

Lets ****ing go

Deadpool & Wolverine has officially crossed the $1B global box office milestone this weekend, with $1.029B+ through Sunday. The international box office portion of the Marvel/Disney marvel is $535.2M and domestic is $494.3M, adding up to a total $1,029.5M.

[Andrew NDB]

Watched it again. New thoughts.

* I really hope they don't take this as a "we need to not cast a new Wolverine for 20-30 years" because Jackman was so awesome. Because they do. They obviously do. Jackman can pop up as the multiversal Fox-Verse Wolverine when they want, but they absolutely need to be thinking about their new Wolverine now. I hope this doesn't set the clock back.

* As others have said. Waittaminute. If Drunk Wolverine is in Deadpool's timeline... Logan hasn't happened yet. How is this supposed to make sense?

* I think them compartmentalizing this into the alternate dimension makes the X-Men rollout fine and good. I just worry this movie makes them soft-punch plans that should have already been in places years ago, since the Fox acquisition.

I mean... there was no reason they couldn't have already done a MCU X-Men movie by now.

Also this movie ended with Deadpool still in his world. I always thought he'd end up in the MCU with his family somehow.

None whatsoever. Though it might be fortunate that -- for whatever reason (and no, the stupid rumors about "The actors at Fox all signed 5 year agreements that prevented Disney/Marvel from recasting anybody!" are as ludicrous as they are impossible) -- they did end up waiting. Had Marvel Studios' X-Men movie(s) started coming out, say, 2-3 years ago (borne out of a time when we know from leaks that in the halls of Marvel there was serious conversations about changing the name "X-Men" to something else because the "Men" part was problematic)... they might have REALLY been run through the blender as far as race/gender-swaps, en-gayifying everyone, and virtue signaling up the wazoo. As it stands, Marvel/Disney, having hemorrhaged billions from such projects might actually just DO straight-up great X-Men movies now.

Also this movie ended with Deadpool still in his world. I always thought he'd end up in the MCU with his family somehow.

It would've made the most sense. And this makes me worry for the future of things, coupled with what's going on with the Fantastic Four movie. It may end up, like, "You want to see the MCU Avengers and all of them? They're over HERE, in the main MCU universe. You want to see the MCU Fantastic Four? They're over HERE, in this OTHER MCU universe. You want to see the MCU X-Men? They're over HERE, in this yet other MCU Universe. You want to see the Fox X-Men or Deadpool? Well, they're still over HERE, in this OTHER universe." And so on.

It's unnecessary. It isn't "neat." None of these people need to come from an alternate universe/dimension except the Fox-Men.

[Barkworm]

I finally got around to see this one. The first part would have been a lot more fun if I had not spoiled it for myself and the villains weren‘t that great (that Sabretooth scene was a big let-down) but overall? Really good. Jackman was fantastic and the long shot scene towards the end and how they used the Madonna song - all wonderful. I also like how they make fun of the multiverse but here‘s hoping all the jokes about Disney making Jackman play Wolverine forever will remain jokes.

I'd be OK with him in moderation for some Avengers extravaganza, or in some gigantic X-Men multiversal event... but AFTER the MCU has its own established X-Men that are not the Fox-Men.

[Barkworm]

It‘s a trap they‘ve built for themselves, Jackman has become so iconic in the role that you‘d have to let the character rest for a few years to recast him. And then they did wait! But instead of recasting they brought him back for an admittedly great idea which then became a superhit. With the way the „creative forces“ in Hollywood work I have a hard time imagining how they‘d not try to make Jackman play the role for another ten years.

I enjoyed this movie. Finally seeing live action Tiger Stripe Wolverine with Mask was cool. Also loved the other Wolverine variants too.

Snipes still has it as Blade and Chaning Tatum was great as Gambit

Deadpool was funny too

People hate me for it, but I still say it's better than X2. Like if you grew up watching the 90s cartoon and some of the comics around the time... X2 was tiny and boring. X3 delivered on some stuff, if not perfectly.

Bullseye. X2 is so overrated. The conflict/plot was not worthy of a feature film.

X3 is just one of those solid movies that the internet nerd hive mind decided was bad and there’s changing anyone’s mind. Off the top of my head:

X3
Thor 2
Incredible Hulk
Iron Fist season 1


All very solid stories with great action and characterization, but people are dumb.
