Deadpool 2

Anonymous — Mon, 21 May 2018 20:06:49 GMT

Anyone else going to see this or is it a tad too lowbrow for you good people here?

I'm not a huge fan of superhero movies as there's been too many of them though really enjoyed Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy.

I enjoyed Deadpool specifically because it poked fun at the genre so am looking forward to the second one, anyone else?

#1 son saw it recently, says it was ok, but a bit daft in parts. He's a fan of all the Marvel ones, and the Guardians of the Galaxy etc...

Enjoy the show, @Anonymous - it's very funny, he says.

I've seen it, much like deadpool 1 it mainly pokes fun at others, including other marvel characters.
I thought it was brilliant, and found the post credit scenes most rewarding lol

I like all the superhero movies, possibly with the exception of Superman. (I know....heresy )

Also enjoyed all the Marvel films, though I have never seen Deadpool @Anonymous

I can't take time out to go to the cinema now, I wait till they can be downloaded.

Deadpool does sound good though....

I really enjoyed the first one although I doubt I would go to the cinema to watch 2 I will watch it when it comes on Sky.

I own Deadpool and will buy Deadpool 2 when it comes out. I love superhero films and TV shows, like Arrow and The Flash. I think I pretty much own all the DC Comics and Marvel characters. either on film or TV boxsets.

And sorry @Cleoriff but I'm one of the many who love Superman 😉

I know @Glory1 but I prefer people like Ironman, Wolverine, Thor and Batman...

Not keen on Spiderman either if honest...

(I dislike him for a stupid reason. I went on the Spiderman 3D experience at Universal Studios) I have a hatred of heights and at the end I was nearly in tears, while the rest of the family thought it was the best thing ever...

Ever since Frank Miller reimagined Batman in the Dark Knight Returns graphic novels, in 1986; Hollywood have been trying to film it. Things like portraying Robin as a 13 year old adolescent girl Carrie Kelly and Bruce Wayne as retired 55 year old ex-superherowith with a history of depression kinda gives them pause. Chris Nolan came closer than most.

I really enjoyed Deadpool and I'm looking forward to this though I'm unlikely to go to the cinema to see it. I'm not one for going to premiers though my son did drag me to the last Starwars premier. Expected big queues but was shocked to find only 3 people in the cinema when we strolled in, There was no more than 20 people when the film started....

Not really stupid @Cleoriff, I can actually sympathise as I hate heights too. I went on the ET ride at either Disneyworld or Universal Studios. Anyway when it started to rise up and up I was trembling but, funnily enough, when we reached the top I was totally calm and actually began to enjoy it. Though I was thrilled when we started descending and finally reached the ground and never wanted to do it again.

I do like Spiderman, though I'm terrified of spiders - go figure .

This was a bit daft though @Glory1. It was a theatre after all. However, we were Spiderman, every time he swooped, so did we and the seats moved to give an additional effect. So imagine being the top of a tower block in the U.S. and flying down 1000's of feet.... I shudder now thinking about it.... (what a wuss)

You definitely wouldn't get me doing it

Umm.......the Spiderman ride sounds far worse than the ET one I did @Cleoriff. I'm not sure I could do that.

I'm not keen on rollercoasters either. I just could never get up the courage when I watched them swooping and twisting round the tracks. Now that really makes me shudder 😐😲
