Look at it carefully, the one where he jumps into a phone booth to change into DP (hilarious by the way), there's a shout out to our beloved Firefly

Just thought I'd mention it.

I might have seen a similar thread to this, but it may have been in a non-specific forum, thus quickly buried.

What do you think of those symbols below the poster on the right?

Guess I didn't realize it was that obvious !

I had THE most ridiculous, lame Deadpool dream ever. Supposedly, it was a screening of the new Deadpool. However, the movie was shown in a 1950's / 60's style movie theatre - straight back chairs. The movie was utterly lame. And short. No Cable, which made me wonder if this was some sort of test screening.

There was a black woman , in uniform, a police, in the audience , who was suppose to have been a feature character from the 1st movie....

We as fans were suppose to know who she was. Kinda like a Dopinder character.

No one knew her.

People started leaving about midway in the screening. It was so terrible.
Before I knew it, the theatre was totally empty, and i was sitting there alone, wondering what had just happened.

Not up on the whole Cable back story, save for what I see on YouTube and such.

I'm a bit hesitant on the sequel. I mean , how does one follow up a insanely successful 1st movie ? There's a formula there which nailed the perfect balance of being campy, funny, and still worth seeing the story unfold. Much of the appeal, imo, was the introduction of Deadpool ( v 2.0 ) , as he should have been done, as well as the self evasive humor.

So now what ? Just repeating what they did the first time will seem lame, but then they can't go full 'serious' like and make it like any other movie.

Hell, as long as they have fun and all, I think it'll do just fine.

Saw a trailer at the theater. Looks like more of the original, successfully. Self-depricates pokes, insulting the scriptwriters, seems like they made good.

JSF - I reread your post 2x, and for the life of me, I have no idea what you're trying go say.

Deadpool 2 comes out in May. Shortly after Avengers: Infinity War. A little more than a month away. I can't wait.

Nathan is featured guest at a Firefly Convention in American Housewife on 9 May and 16 May.

Morena's Deadpool 2, with at least one Firefly shoutout, comes out 18 May - which might actually be 17 May.

Is there some larger Force at work? Any thing else upcoming?


Anybody know if Morena is scheduled for late night shows upcoming?
And is Adam going to push some The Last Ship product?


Zazie Beetz is on a Jimmy tonight.

Morena is on Corden now. Along with Steven Tyler - didn't he sing a tune on Pilot Serenity?

Wondering if Reggie will have a Sci-Fi question.



She reveals an action scene which was cut because of her.

Reggie never asked a question, or it was cut.

I did think it was a slightly less entertaining because it felt like more of the same. I mean I don't really know what else they could do, but it just felt like I'd seen this magic trick before.

Also, the one thing I was worried about was a child actor. Sure enough he was my least favorite part of the movie. I liked every other new character they introduced except him. When will hollywood learn?

Overall, I'm glad I saw it and I think it's a decent sequel. I just don't know how many times they can tell similar jokes and keep getting laughs.

Apparently Ryan Reynolds decided to make a PG-13 version of Deadpool for kiddies, so he kidnapped Fred Savage to help tell the story.

Seems to maintain the same humor and irreverence. With more original content added.

If you saw the 1st one and weren't impressed with more than ' it was OK ', then I doubt you'll like DP2. I thought 2 was still good, and even enjoyed Once Upon a Deadpool, but that's just me. I think DP is a freaking masterpiece of the super hero genre, but if all you see is 'OK', then prepare to be underwhelmed from here on out.
