I love the theory that Deadpool had so much trouble finding Francis because he insisted on only ever asking about him by that name, but most of his minions had no idea who "Francis" was and only knew him as Ajax.
One of Deadpool's "powers" is actually his ability to break the fourth wall. He is aware he is a comic book character and in the comics frequently addresses the reader directly. This carries over to all the other media that Deadpool has been in, he is always aware that he is just a character. By extension knows that he will always prevail because he it the main character in his stories.
I have a theory that Deadpool's healing power is so strong that he can still feel his dismembered limbs. Which then explains how he knows he is in a comicbook because he can feel his body in the other panels.
To help you understand, Deadpool is his own franchise in the Marvel comics. He's made countless guest and collaboration appearances with heroes, villains, and teams such as the Avengers, Fantastic Four, Guardians of the Galaxy, and of course the X-Men. The reason Deadpool "affectionately" references Wolverine is because in the comics, they were both experiments of the Weapon X program. DP also likes to mess with Wolverine, knowing full-well Wolvey doesn't have a sense of humor and is easily annoyed by DP's existence. And if you're wondering, yes Deadpool is just as raunchy, silly, and juvenile as he is portrayed in this movie.
He also references Wolverine because Ryan Reynolds played Wade Wilson/Deadpool in the Wolverine origins movie and they completely messed up the character. Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman was a huge booster for making this movie and giving fans a more comics accurate version of the character.
@@paulp9274 It's not that they "messed up the character", they just made an updated origin for him and because the stinger showing he was alive and aware only ran with half the showings, people assumed that was all we were getting and lost their shit, blasting the film. I'm sure had the people actually realized that it worked as an origin for his brain damage and not panned the film, we would have gotten a solo Deadpool movie much earlier than we did and wouldn't have had to fight for it as hard.
@@HobGungan No, the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine is an awful movie by any measurement. And they did the character of Wade Wilson terribly. The best thing they could have ever done with that film would be not to have made it in the first place. This version of Deadpool is SO much better. I am glad that someone leaked that test footage.
Ryan Reynolds is a comic book nerd, and *loves* the character Deadpool. So when he got to play him in the X-men origins: Wolverine movie he was happy...except the movie sucked and the character he played ended up nothing like Deadpool. So he tried to convince Fox to make a movie, even helped fund test footage. Fox said no. So _someone_ leaked the test footage, fans went wild, and Fox gave them a tiny budget. Halfway through making it they cut the budget again, which made them take a whole bunch of fun creative choices to save money. The end results were pretty darn good, and the executive at Fox who said no had to eat crow.
@@rsrt6910 if you ever lay your hands on a crow the others, "a murder of crows", will forever hate you and even teach their kids to hate you.. they are not to be messed with..
In the ending scene when Deadpool saying the line "You're still Here?, It's Over, Go Home" is reference from the 1986 classic film Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Thank you Jen for reacting Deadpool starring by Ryan Reynolds just awesome😊👍👍👍👍
I do wish they had done a better job on the CG, I would have prefered some type of blended real/CG like Juggernaut in the 2nd, but all that is really hard to get right.
amusing trivia info that fans of this channel can apprecciate: "Deadpool" is played by Ryan *Reynolds* . "Vanessa" is played by Morena Baccarin. Ryan *Reynolds* was in the sitcom _Two Guys & A Pizza Place_ with.... Nathan Fillion. Nathan Fillion plays Malcolm *Reynolds* in the tvshow _Firefly_ . Morena Baccarin plays Inara in the tvshow _Firefly_
So yes Deadpool is indeed a Marvel character first appearing in New Mutants (1983) #98 Created by: Fabian Nicieza; Rob Liefeld. He has interacted with a bunch of other Marvel characters outside of the X-Men from Spider-Man to the Punisher and of course members of The Avengers. The reason why Deadpool isn’t apart of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) is because of legal reasons. In the 90s Marvel was facing bankruptcy so they sold a few of there movie rights off to different companies with Sony getting the rights to Spider-Man while Fox got the rights to X-Men and Fantastic Four along with any associated villains, groups, and hero’s. Characters like Daredevil, Punisher, and Blade were also sold off as well to different studios. Fox started working on X-Men releasing the first film in 2000 a series that lasted until 2019 while Sony started working on a Spider-Man trilogy with Sam Rami releasing Spider-Man in 2002. Fox then started working on a Fantastic Four film which released in 2005. All of these films existed separate from each other with Sony pretty much having zero interest in crossing over with Fox’s X-Men or even the Fantastic Four who were active in Manhattan so it would've made perfect since for Spider-Man to run into them or at least swing past the Baxter Building. Fox even though they owned Fantastic Four didn’t even cross over with there X-Men films besides a delete scene so at this time everything Marvel was pretty disconnected from each other. Marvel comics can be similar as groups like X-Men work separate from The Avengers but they’ll always be nods and references to other events for example in a Spider-Man comic you may hear mentions of Mutants or a news story mentioning the Avengers saving the day something Fox could’ve done if they wanted to between franchises but didn’t. Meanwhile while all of this was happening Marvel thought hey why don’t we make our own films and thus Iron Man was released in 2008 followed by The Incredible Hulk in 2009 starting the MCU a shared universe where each film led and built into the next where characters from each movie could show up in any future film. At the same time the X-Men films were still being released but these took place in a separate universe. Marvel did try to find ways for Fox to allow them to have small X-Men cameos like Wolverine appearing in Captain America: The First Avenger in 2011 fighting alongside Captain America but this never happened. Marvel also did the same thing with Sony and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 where they came to Sony with an idea of having Avengers Tower in the New York Skyline linking Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man to the MCU but this never happened and instead we got Tom Holland as the MCU Spider-Man. Deadpool is on the same boat existing in the Fox X-Men universe which at this point is pretty much finished as Fox no longer owns the rights so who knows what Deadpool 3 could be about. In 2019 Disney bought 20th Century Fox so now Marvel Studios (creators of the MCU) are now free to use anything Fantastic Four or X-Men related so I wouldn't be surprised if they start introducing Mutants anytime soon It's just a matter of how and when as they'll have to explain why we never saw Mutants or X-Men throughout the MCU. 25:18 So I haven't seen anyone point this out but this end battle takes place in front and on top of decommissioned helicarrier originally designed by Jack Kirby for the Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. serial in Strange Tales #135 (August 1965). The director for Deadpool has confirmed that it's not a S.H.I.E.L.D Helicarrier stating: "No, it's clearly not the Helicarrier. I just want to say for the record, there's a lot of groups in the Marvel universe who use flying combat platforms. It's not just the Helicarrier. A.I.M. (Advanced Idea Mechanics) has some. It could have been anything but a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. Because that would be outside of the purview of the Fox/Marvel arrangement." i personally think it's just a fun little nod or hint at groups like this existing in the Fox X-Men universe even though they can't mention them for legal reasons. 27:09 so Bob is actually from the comics first appearing in Cable & Deadpool #38 (May 2007) and went by Bob, Agent of Hydra. He’s usually an antihero and a sidekick of Deadpool a former member of terrorist organisation Hydra but defected to help Wade Wilson, keeping his Hydra uniform which is where his name comes from. Because of legal reasons Bob couldn’t be apart of Hydra as they’re own by Marvel Studios who own most of Marvel while Fox only owns the rights to X-Men so they simply couldn’t mention Hydra at all. So instead Bob is apart of this random group but who knows Deadpool 3 has been confirmed to be apart of the MCU no idea how that will be explained but with Deadpool and X-Men now being owned by Marvel Studios they’re free to have Bob be apart of Hydra.
"Your girlfriends probably thinking, 'Wait a minute, this is a superhero movie, but that guy in the red suit turned that other guy into a F--king kabob!' Well I may be super but I'm no hero. By the way, this is a murder you're witnessing." Lol!!
Oh my word Jen. You should DEFINITELY See X-Men. It's such a Journey, with "Days of Future Past" being basically a masterpiece in my opinion, but you kind of need to watch them all to get the full effect. I would honestly just watch them in this order. X-Men (2000) X-2 (2003) X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) X-Men: First Class (2011) X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014) X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) Logan (2017) *Logan will make you cry, I seriously bawl every time I see that one*
Just as with the main MCU, the X-Men movies should be watched exactly like that, in release order. You do leave out a couple movies like Wolverine (2013) which I liked and Dark Phoenix (2019) which... not so much. Did you ever see the 2020 film "The New Mutants". Another lukewarm movie but not too bad.
Ehh. Get rid of Apocalypse and add The Wolverine in between First Class and Days of Future Past. And although it sucks.....Wolverine Origins as well. Only because you lose our in one the main jokes in Deadpool 2 if you haven't seen it.
Hearing the story of how Reynolds became a fan of Deadpool illustrates the passion he’s had in the project. He’s been very hands-on with it. From the character itself to the making of the movie to the advertising, he’s wanted this to succeed. I’m about to say something that few people will ever say. Before you see the second one, you need to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine. There’s a couple of scenes in it that they make references to in Deadpool 2.
I like the apparence of the "Deadpool" action figure in this movie, the one from X-Men Origin Wolverine that is. Yup, this wasn't actually the first movie Ryan Reynolds was cast as Deadpool, believe it or not, but the less things said about that movie and that Deadpool the better. His fondness for the character is what got him cast again, and really, everybody agrees that he is the perfect choice for the role. He also played Hal Jordan Green Lantern in the DCverse but that wasn't very good, and even referenced in this movie as humourous self-deprecation.
I do like how one of the trailers for Free Guy (a highly recommended movie) makes considerable mileage about how Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi have *never ever* been in a movie together. They are lying. Yes, it was that bad.
I would love to see an MCU film where Deadpool just shows up half or three-quarters through, and just hijacks the plot ("I'M the protagonist, now! HAHAHA!"), and have it be completely unspoiled by advertising & promos. That would be such a Deadpool move.
@@LordVolkov Well, ok, I'd watch it, but I like the idea that DP took over entirely, left the ostensible title character in the wind. Suddenly took the cameras' and microphones' focus onto himself, and just skated off. And then, as HIS movie progressed, we might catch 2-3 whiffs of the other plot in the background, via news reports & whatnot, but never get a clear idea of the whole thing.
This movie is PACKED with references to the various X-Men movies (since it's in the same universe). After you watch those movies, I highly recommend going back and watching Deadpool again. It'll feel like a different movie from your first watch.
“I know, right? You’re probably thinking, ‘Whose b***s did I have to fondle to get my very own movie?’ I can’t tell you his name, but it rhymes with ‘Polverine.’ And let me tell you, he’s got a nice pair of smooth criminals down under.”
Another awesome reaction. This movie was perfect for Jen - Action, comedy, explosions, kissing. Jen you should definitely watch Deadpool 2 you won't be dissapointed.
The sarcastic opening credits really set the tone for Deadpool. The comic is incredibly self aware of the tropes of comics and the movie does the same with movies. Poking fun at the very tropes that allow such a movie to exist is very on point for Deadpool. And Ryan Reynolds is well aware of the reception of some of his other superhero movies (Wolverine:Origins & Green Lantern), so they get mocked mercilessly in good fun. You will catch more reference jokes in Deadpool 2 if you watch the X-men movies first, but they aren't necessary to enjoy it.
The character Deadpool has healing powers which is what is keeping his cancer at bay. His main super power, however, is breaking the fourth wall. In the comics he is constantly speaking to you (the reader).
This movie is so well done. Stayed true to the comics where Deadpool was constantly breaking the fourth wall. Keep up the awesome work Jen! Deadpool 2 I actually like a little more than this one, hope you do it as well
Ryan Reynolds and Nathan Fillion both got their big break in a show called Two Guys and a Girl Naturally, they both joked with each other about playing characters who dated Morena Baccarin
This came up so randomly in my feed, but I'm all about seeing people experience Deadpool for the first time. If you do the sequel, do the unedited cut. It has so many more jokes, but you may not get them all without watching the X-Men movies first.
Actually, with X-Men, the first ones are arguably the best. One and two are REALLY good, three… ehh. Then they do a time-jump/ soft reboot with First Class, then Days of Future Past (people loved both), followed by Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix (which were just terrible). Then there are the three Wolverine movies, which start terrible and get much, MUCH better (the third is a must-see!) Long story short? If you just want a primer on the X-Men universe, you can get away with watching just the first film. If you like it, then keep going.
I mean, I'd argue a few things: 1 - The first movie isn't, IMO, "really good". At least, not in a vacuum. I think it's "really good" only if you're evaluating it on a curve; it's not about being great in and of itself, but it lays the foundation for the larger universe really well. (Nothing wrong with that, I just think if it was a standalone movie, it'd be more "okay" than "really good".) 2 - Days of Future Past isn't just not good, it's bad: it perfectly encapsulates why the Wolverine franchise failed: it was SUPPOSED TO BE the X-Men. Not the Wolverine with his friends Prof X and Magneto. DoFP was Shadowcat's story. 3 - While I'd say that only watching 1 + 2 and stopping is probably the best way to keep it "long story short"... I'd actually recommend the cartoon over any of the movies if somebody wants to watch fun X-Men stories and get the gist of it.
I had to watch your deadpool reaction for the post credit scene since it was in today’s Ferris Bueller reaction lol and this is where your iconic profile picture is from, still looking lovely as always Jen.
I’m amazed that only one person mentioned The Green Lantern movie as one of the movies referenced in this movie that you missed the reference to. He’s a DC superhero, also played by Ryan Reynolds, and generally considered a poor movie (which they made fun of in this one). I’m also surprised not enough people warned you about X3: The Last Stand, the third X-Men movie and definitely the worst one, as well as one of the worst superhero movies period. (There are a few others like Batman & Robin that give it a run for the money.) Most of the takes mentioned here do seem to call out the best X-men movies and the other poor ones though. Fantastic Four 1 & 2 are ok-ish, but I wouldn’t necessarily watch them (and definitely don’t watch the newer FF from a few years ago as others mentioned). Fortunately a new Fantastic Four movie is coming to the MCU soon, so 🤞 that it will be good. The only real reason to watch the older FF movies is to know who a particular character (avoiding spoilers) is before watching Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, but you could also read any FF comic or watch one of the old cartoons just to learn about them… not a big deal regardless. Also watch at least one episode of the 90s X-men cartoon and the first X-men movie before watching Dr. Strange and the M. Of M. movie for maximum understanding of references.
@@bigdaddy741098 your counting is funky... The Wolverine is not the 3rd X-men movie . In order: X-Men (2000) X2: X-Men United (2003) X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) X-Men: First Class (2011) The Wolverine (2013) X-Men: Days Of Future Past (2014) Deadpool (2016) X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) Logan (2017) Deadpool 2 (2018) X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019) The New Mutants (2020)
So since you were curious in the comics Deadpool can literally never die, partly due to his crazy regeneration ability that is either on the same level as Xmen's Wolverine's or better than it, and partly due to Thanos literally making him unable to die because Death, Thanos' love interest, is in love with Deadpool. Quite possibly my favorite part of the Deadpool comics was the section where Weasel and Blind Al were supporting cast and I remember a large part of that section was Deadpool trying to die so he could be with Death. I have read most of the Deadpool comics apart from the current series and most of the first one that came out in the 60s or 70s. Deadpool is my favorite character in all of Marvel and I think Deadpool 1 and 2 are great portrayals of Deadpool. Also Xmen is not required to enjoy Deadpool however if you choose to watch them just know that many of the Xmen movies are hit and miss and they are technically on a separate timeline to Deadpool. Deadpool 1 and 2 does make references to Xmen and the figures within but Xmen has always been more of an afterthought. Collossus and Negasonic may have some roles in Deadpool but I am pretty sure they are only there for familiarity and if it is meant to fit in the Xmen film timeline we would see more evidence of it and there is none.
Dunno if anyone's already clarified this (I'm seeing a lot of confirmations about the fourth wall breaking), but *Deadpool* looks the way he does because part of his mutation was to accelerate his cancer & spread it throughout his entire body, but his new, _hugely accelerated healing_ (again, his mutation) keeps it in check, stops it from killing him… Basically, his cancer & healing are constantly at war inside his body. Love, as always, coming your way Jen 🥰❤️ *P.S. -* The post-credits scene was a reference to the post-credits scene of _'Ferris Bueller’s Day Off'_ (which is definitely a movie you should watch, if you like 80s coming-of-age movies).
A funny but true story: About 3 years ago, I was delivering sone plastic pipe to a mining operation in Colorado, and one of the guys there to receive the shipment was this English guy named Ajax! I asked him if that was his real name - or, if it was really Francis, but he didn't get it - he hadn't seen the film yet!!! 🤣
Fun fact: long before this movie came out, the comic version of deadpool described his appearance as "Ryan Reynolds crossed with a radioactive sharpei"
Even in the old cartoons Deadpool was barely innocent and quite graphic in nature. I remember in one Xmen episode someone turned one of his arms into perfectly round cutlets. He spent the most of it to one side of the scene in the background, while everyone else around him was fighting for their lives, while he tried to figure out which piece went where. (All he had to do was put the right piece in the right place and it would heal immediately) By the time he was finally finished the entire episode was over and so was the battle. "what did i miss?"
the comic book version of Deadpool is also known for breaking the fourth wall. in the movies and his comic books, he does everything from pop culture references, commenting on what's going on to the reader, planning his next move, poking fun at the medium of comics, or even discussing the fact that the writer is doing a crappy job, grumble about the budget for the movie or that the producers were too cheap to put more X-Men in the movie, didn’t have the budget to do better CGI, make pop-culture references that the characters on-screen have no knowledge of, etc. He does this in the comics, too, chastising the editor, artist or writers.
- Should you watch Dead Pool 2 ? Yes, definitely . If you liked this one, you'll like that one . X-Men movie knowledge not required . - Should you watch the X-Men movies ? Yes, with the understanding that some are better than others ... , and that they happen in an order , so start with the first one . Also, slight slight spoiler (not really) that one of the X-Men movies tried to include Dead Pool (not the Dead Pool that you reacted to above) , and that Dead Pool came out ... almost universally disliked -- so much so that one of the "end credit" scenes in Dead Pool 2 , has Dead Pool murdering that other Dead Pool , from the X-Men movie . (incidentally, both Dead Pool's were played by Ryan Raynolds ... who ... let's just say that he has a couple of regrets in his film career ... -- which he tries to erase in those end credits, with a wink / nod to the audience) - Are the X-Men movies blending into the current "Marvel Universe" ? We need to time travel for that question : The X-Men movies (Dead Pool included) , were mostly produced by the 20th Century Fox studios, along with what was then a smaller production company called Marvel Studios . In the early 2010's , Disney went on a purchasing spree, and purchased Marvel Comics (including Marvel studios) , and the 20th Century Fox studios ( getting the rights to a slew of franchises, including Star Wars) . What does that mean ? It means that all of the X-Men movies + the two Dead Pool movies were made under Fox , and Disney is unlikely to continue that story timeline . Disney did however choose to continue and expand the "Marvel Universe" movies, which were started with Ironman (which was made before the Disney purchase) . TL;DR -- there won't be an X-Men / Marvel Universe crossover on the big screen , but in the years to come, Disney might re-boot and do their own X-Men movies, with different actors & origins .
"What if you cut off his head?" Then you have Headpool, he flies around with a special hat with a helicopter rotor on top. Seriously, he started off as Zombiepool, had his head cut off, went on a multi-dimensional adventure, joined the Deadpool Corps. (Alternate versions of Deadpool from other universes) and died heroically in battle...sort of.
the woman who did the "superhero landing" is also playing a role in the series "the mandalorian" from star wars. and when you said "is he gonna be an x-men?" in the series "x-men the annime" in one of the last episodes in one of the scene s you see him stand between the other heroes who protected the civilians.
A huge advantage of Deadpool's self-awareness is that you can slot him into any movie, and he can just dial back the language/violence himself because he knows he's in a PG movie.
Deadpool & Wolverine is now kind of a bridge leading into the next chapter of X-Men, with the X-Men now becoming part of the MCU (they weren't before because Marvel had sold the rights to Fox years ago, now the rights have reverted back to Marvel, same with the Fantastic Four).
Lots of smiles there Jen. It was like you REALLY like Ryan. Vanessa was able to get the love from fella that inara never got from Mal. Been a Ryan fan since his two guys a girl and a Pizza place. Coincidentally Nathan Fillion was also in that cast. If you're doing the x-men thing start with the x-men 2000. Has SOME background and is a nice starting point. Was nice to see the post credit Ferris Bueller homage. Happy memories Jen.
Omg YES you must see the X-Men films, ideally before seeing this Deadpool, but DEFINITELY before seing the sequel. Watch it in release order, and then the XMen First Class films. "X-men Origins: Wolverine" is also a film you should see before Deadpool 2.
It's highly likely that Ajax did get his name from the soap, but that got its name from a mythological Greek warrior, who coincidentally was said to have had great strength. There was even a RN warship called Ajax that fought at the Battle of the River Plate in WWII.
The budget for this movie was cut a few times (long story, interesting one) and one of the things they did to compensate was remove a few gunfights - including the end - hence Deadpool left his bag o' guns in the cab. I think it turned out better for it.
Master Molicule rule his head would grow a new body. That was broken in the comics once when he was blown up into 1000s of pieces. And there were 1000 Pools.
Great reaction Jen. Deadpool is awesome. He is hilarious and you definitely have to watch Deadpool 2. Also watch the X-Men movies for sure. Start with the original X-Men from 2000. They're all pretty good.
At 10:22 you said, "It's like a video game with all the catchphrases". I played the video game, before I saw the movies and it's just as mental. Even on an old PS2. And yes, he breaks the fourth wall in the game too.
There were a lot of references to other Marvel/X-Men movies, including making fun of the only prior version of Deadpool(which everybody hated including Reynolds who played the prior version). Also, that credits bit was a reference to the 80's classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
This almost could have been a Canada Day video (Actor and the character he plays are both Canadian). The second one is also very good, but it'd help to watch the first few X-Men movies first (would have helped with this one, too, but...) since some of the characters and concepts are based on the X-Men movies, and there are a lot of X-Men related jokes. Deadpool references stuff up to the Logan movie. So... yes, you should definitely watch the X-Men movies before Deadpool 2. Deadpool is a Marvel character (as are the X-Men), but back in the 90s, Marvel was having some financial trouble so they sold off the movie rights to a bunch of their characters to different studios. The X-Men universe (including Deadpool) went to Fox (they also got the Fantastic Four franchise, among others). Spider-Man went to Sony, and so on. Marvel eventually started making their own movies with whatever characters they had left, like Iron Man. Then Disney bought Marvel, the MCU became a huge phenomenon. Disney wanted to get rights to all their characters back, especially since they'd sold off some of the best ones, so essentially leased Spider-Man back from Sony and bought Fox outright.... Anyway, this is a longwinded way to say that X-Men and Deadpool are Marvel characters, but the movies so far are not MCU movies, but yes, Deadpool 3 will be set in the MCU (they're working on it now). Oh, and yes, Deadpool 3 will be R-rated and the first MCU R-rated movie (Kevin Feige confirmed and approved).
@@jenmurrayxo Nice. It can be a bumpy ride, especially toward the end, but there are a few superhero movie gems in there. Will look forward to seeing what you think.
1:47 A dead pool, also known as a deadpool or death pool, is a game of prediction which involves guessing when someone will die. Sometimes it is a bet where money is involved
Jen, I'd start with the first X-Men, and then the next two, then watch the Wolverine films before you watch X-Men First Class and X-Men The Days of Future Past, you'll meet Wade in one of the Wolverine films. You can watch Deadpool 2 anytime you want as it won't effect you watching the X-Men films.
The first time I watched this film I was howling for like a good minute or two at “your poor wife!”. Not a blip! I thought this was a reaction video. Each to their own, I guess.
The origin of the word dead pool. Basically newspaper people keep biographies of people in case they die so that you can quickly air a peace on them when they do. So why not bet on it. A pool people who are likely to die and the one who gets the right answer wins. Hence a Deadpool
I want to create a Grand Unified Film Reference Theory. All the movies you need to watch, all the movies you need to watch to get the references in those movies, and so on.
It's actually so overpowered when it was stolen by another mutant, they exploded. Turns out, it needs his cancer to balance it out. The cancer serves as a limiter that keeps it from going wild and the healing factor constantly destroys the cancer as fast as it grows. A fucked up yin and yang
I love the fact that you're not averse to cursing, unlike some of my other favorite movie reactors. Your reactions are more akin to my own in that regard. You and Awkward Ashleigh share that dynamic. I don't believe you needed to see any of the X-Men films to understand this one. But there are some fun ones, so I'd definitely watch them for entertainment, not enlightenment regarding this film. It might help to watch at least one of them before you watch Deadpool 2, though. Not super important, but just for one particular sight gag. Anyway, keep up the good work!
What I like about the X-Men movies is their sense of individuality, and their ability to think outside the box Most MCU movies look the same, and they almost never take risks
In order: X-Men (2000), X2: X-Men 2, X-Men: Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, X-Men: First Class, The Wolverine, X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse, Logan, Deadpool 2 (if you can, watch the Super Duper Cut, that one includes the deleted scenes that where cut out from the theatrical version and the Super Duper Cut even has an end credit scene), Dark Phoenix and The New Mutants.
I recommend catching up with X-men before Deadpool 2, it is not required, but the do share the same universe and there are few references to the previous X-men movies... and I genuinely think that the X-men series is great, some movies are better than others, but very enjoyable super hero movies.
This movie’s so damn good. Funny of course, great action of course, and truly one of the best love stories around. They are a genuinely wonderful couple and the actors have amazing chemistry.
"This is like a video game...all the catch-phrases!" Oh, if I can suggest playing the Playstation 4 "Deadpool" game, that is possibly the greatest favor I could do for you. Pure, nonstop comedy, from start to finish. I'd also advise against playing on the 'easy' level, or it is over far too quickly.
I love the theory that Deadpool had so much trouble finding Francis because he insisted on only ever asking about him by that name, but most of his minions had no idea who "Francis" was and only knew him as Ajax.
I noticed that on my second watch years ago and wondered if the writers did that intentionally or it just worked out lol.
Not a theory. Literally no one but Wade knew his name was Francis. He also said he kills worse guys
One of Deadpool's "powers" is actually his ability to break the fourth wall. He is aware he is a comic book character and in the comics frequently addresses the reader directly. This carries over to all the other media that Deadpool has been in, he is always aware that he is just a character. By extension knows that he will always prevail because he it the main character in his stories.
she-hulk was the 1st comic book character to break the 4th wall before deadpool
The best superpowerof deadpool for me is his ability to use the health bar of his opponents and smash it at them😂🤣
@@antoineporche-rideaux4841 I hope She-Hulk breaks the 4th wall in her new series.
Gwen-Pool's only power is that she knows she is in a fictional world, and what the writers will do.
I have a theory that Deadpool's healing power is so strong that he can still feel his dismembered limbs.
Which then explains how he knows he is in a comicbook because he can feel his body in the other panels.
To help you understand, Deadpool is his own franchise in the Marvel comics. He's made countless guest and collaboration appearances with heroes, villains, and teams such as the Avengers, Fantastic Four, Guardians of the Galaxy, and of course the X-Men.
The reason Deadpool "affectionately" references Wolverine is because in the comics, they were both experiments of the Weapon X program. DP also likes to mess with Wolverine, knowing full-well Wolvey doesn't have a sense of humor and is easily annoyed by DP's existence.
And if you're wondering, yes Deadpool is just as raunchy, silly, and juvenile as he is portrayed in this movie.
Thank you!! Will be watching X-Men soon 👍
He also references Wolverine because Ryan Reynolds played Wade Wilson/Deadpool in the Wolverine origins movie and they completely messed up the character.
Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman was a huge booster for making this movie and giving fans a more comics accurate version of the character.
DEADPOOL LIVES IN HIS OWN SPACE!
@@paulp9274 It's not that they "messed up the character", they just made an updated origin for him and because the stinger showing he was alive and aware only ran with half the showings, people assumed that was all we were getting and lost their shit, blasting the film.
I'm sure had the people actually realized that it worked as an origin for his brain damage and not panned the film, we would have gotten a solo Deadpool movie much earlier than we did and wouldn't have had to fight for it as hard.
@@HobGungan No, the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine is an awful movie by any measurement. And they did the character of Wade Wilson terribly. The best thing they could have ever done with that film would be not to have made it in the first place.
This version of Deadpool is SO much better. I am glad that someone leaked that test footage.
Ryan Reynolds is a comic book nerd, and *loves* the character Deadpool. So when he got to play him in the X-men origins: Wolverine movie he was happy...except the movie sucked and the character he played ended up nothing like Deadpool. So he tried to convince Fox to make a movie, even helped fund test footage. Fox said no. So _someone_ leaked the test footage, fans went wild, and Fox gave them a tiny budget. Halfway through making it they cut the budget again, which made them take a whole bunch of fun creative choices to save money. The end results were pretty darn good, and the executive at Fox who said no had to eat crow.
"fun creative choices to save money" i.e., Deadpool "forgetting" his duffel bag full of guns at the end.
What does crow taste like?
Cause I always thought crow would taste like chicken, in which case... yum.
Yet still they didn't allow Deadpool to look even relatively close to how bad he looks in comics.
@@rsrt6910 if you ever lay your hands on a crow the others, "a murder of crows", will forever hate you and even teach their kids to hate you..
they are not to be messed with..
@@miou-miou- Yeah, but THEY can't shoot back.
This movie is so perfectly done. Everything about it is so well done, right down to the opening credits. I never get tired of watching this.
Even the trailers and teasers for both of the Deadpool movies were perfectly done.
It's so great to see so much love poured into it.
I always love watching whenever it is on my TV.
In the ending scene when Deadpool saying the line "You're still Here?, It's Over, Go Home" is reference from the 1986 classic film Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Thank you Jen for reacting Deadpool starring by Ryan Reynolds just awesome😊👍👍👍👍
You beat me to it.
@@Thunderclouification 👍👍👍
As is the "chicka-CHICKA", a "lyric" from "Oh Yeah" which was used in Ferris.
@@Harv72b That's right
Jen: "So yeah, I think I'm ready..."
**collective audience jumping up and yelling** "No you're not!"
It took this movie to get the X-Man character Colossus right. None of the X-Men movies ever got him quite right, but here, he's perfect.
Yeah, I remember seeing the trailer for the first time and my jaw DROPPED ! Was freaking out that he finally looked right.
I do wish they had done a better job on the CG, I would have prefered some type of blended real/CG like Juggernaut in the 2nd, but all that is really hard to get right.
He is close here, but not perfect. This version of Colossus is too one dimensional.
@@whocares110 no such thing as getting it perfect tbh
@@TheIcemanthomas true.
amusing trivia info that fans of this channel can apprecciate: "Deadpool" is played by Ryan *Reynolds* . "Vanessa" is played by Morena Baccarin. Ryan *Reynolds* was in the sitcom _Two Guys & A Pizza Place_ with.... Nathan Fillion. Nathan Fillion plays Malcolm *Reynolds* in the tvshow _Firefly_ . Morena Baccarin plays Inara in the tvshow _Firefly_
So yes Deadpool is indeed a Marvel character first appearing in New Mutants (1983) #98 Created by: Fabian Nicieza; Rob Liefeld. He has interacted with a bunch of other Marvel characters outside of the X-Men from Spider-Man to the Punisher and of course members of The Avengers. The reason why Deadpool isn’t apart of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) is because of legal reasons. In the 90s Marvel was facing bankruptcy so they sold a few of there movie rights off to different companies with Sony getting the rights to Spider-Man while Fox got the rights to X-Men and Fantastic Four along with any associated villains, groups, and hero’s. Characters like Daredevil, Punisher, and Blade were also sold off as well to different studios. Fox started working on X-Men releasing the first film in 2000 a series that lasted until 2019 while Sony started working on a Spider-Man trilogy with Sam Rami releasing Spider-Man in 2002. Fox then started working on a Fantastic Four film which released in 2005. All of these films existed separate from each other with Sony pretty much having zero interest in crossing over with Fox’s X-Men or even the Fantastic Four who were active in Manhattan so it would've made perfect since for Spider-Man to run into them or at least swing past the Baxter Building.
Fox even though they owned Fantastic Four didn’t even cross over with there X-Men films besides a delete scene so at this time everything Marvel was pretty disconnected from each other. Marvel comics can be similar as groups like X-Men work separate from The Avengers but they’ll always be nods and references to other events for example in a Spider-Man comic you may hear mentions of Mutants or a news story mentioning the Avengers saving the day something Fox could’ve done if they wanted to between franchises but didn’t. Meanwhile while all of this was happening Marvel thought hey why don’t we make our own films and thus Iron Man was released in 2008 followed by The Incredible Hulk in 2009 starting the MCU a shared universe where each film led and built into the next where characters from each movie could show up in any future film. At the same time the X-Men films were still being released but these took place in a separate universe.
Marvel did try to find ways for Fox to allow them to have small X-Men cameos like Wolverine appearing in Captain America: The First Avenger in 2011 fighting alongside Captain America but this never happened. Marvel also did the same thing with Sony and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 where they came to Sony with an idea of having Avengers Tower in the New York Skyline linking Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man to the MCU but this never happened and instead we got Tom Holland as the MCU Spider-Man. Deadpool is on the same boat existing in the Fox X-Men universe which at this point is pretty much finished as Fox no longer owns the rights so who knows what Deadpool 3 could be about. In 2019 Disney bought 20th Century Fox so now Marvel Studios (creators of the MCU) are now free to use anything Fantastic Four or X-Men related so I wouldn't be surprised if they start introducing Mutants anytime soon It's just a matter of how and when as they'll have to explain why we never saw Mutants or X-Men throughout the MCU.
25:18 So I haven't seen anyone point this out but this end battle takes place in front and on top of decommissioned helicarrier originally designed by Jack Kirby for the Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. serial in Strange Tales #135 (August 1965). The director for Deadpool has confirmed that it's not a S.H.I.E.L.D Helicarrier stating:
"No, it's clearly not the Helicarrier. I just want to say for the record, there's a lot of groups in the Marvel universe who use flying combat platforms. It's not just the Helicarrier. A.I.M. (Advanced Idea Mechanics) has some. It could have been anything but a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. Because that would be outside of the purview of the Fox/Marvel arrangement." i personally think it's just a fun little nod or hint at groups like this existing in the Fox X-Men universe even though they can't mention them for legal reasons.
27:09 so Bob is actually from the comics first appearing in Cable & Deadpool #38 (May 2007) and went by Bob, Agent of Hydra. He’s usually an antihero and a sidekick of Deadpool a former member of terrorist organisation Hydra but defected to help Wade Wilson, keeping his Hydra uniform which is where his name comes from. Because of legal reasons Bob couldn’t be apart of Hydra as they’re own by Marvel Studios who own most of Marvel while Fox only owns the rights to X-Men so they simply couldn’t mention Hydra at all. So instead Bob is apart of this random group but who knows Deadpool 3 has been confirmed to be apart of the MCU no idea how that will be explained but with Deadpool and X-Men now being owned by Marvel Studios they’re free to have Bob be apart of Hydra.
Disney also owns the rights do deadpool because he was under the FOX unbrella they bought out...
"Your girlfriends probably thinking, 'Wait a minute, this is a superhero movie, but that guy in the red suit turned that other guy into a F--king kabob!' Well I may be super but I'm no hero. By the way, this is a murder you're witnessing." Lol!!
Oh my word Jen. You should DEFINITELY See X-Men. It's such a Journey, with "Days of Future Past" being basically a masterpiece in my opinion, but you kind of need to watch them all to get the full effect.
I would honestly just watch them in this order.
X-Men (2000)
X-2 (2003)
X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)
X-Men: First Class (2011)
X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)
Logan (2017) *Logan will make you cry, I seriously bawl every time I see that one*
Just as with the main MCU, the X-Men movies should be watched exactly like that, in release order. You do leave out a couple movies like Wolverine (2013) which I liked and Dark Phoenix (2019) which... not so much.
Did you ever see the 2020 film "The New Mutants". Another lukewarm movie but not too bad.
Ehh. Get rid of Apocalypse and add The Wolverine in between First Class and Days of Future Past. And although it sucks.....Wolverine Origins as well. Only because you lose our in one the main jokes in Deadpool 2 if you haven't seen it.
I would skip TLS and Apoc not really needed just to get couple of references
That end credit scene is a parody of the end of Ferris Bueller's Day Off... Which if u haven't seen it is worth it 😊
Hearing the story of how Reynolds became a fan of Deadpool illustrates the passion he’s had in the project. He’s been very hands-on with it. From the character itself to the making of the movie to the advertising, he’s wanted this to succeed. I’m about to say something that few people will ever say. Before you see the second one, you need to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine. There’s a couple of scenes in it that they make references to in Deadpool 2.
I like the apparence of the "Deadpool" action figure in this movie, the one from X-Men Origin Wolverine that is. Yup, this wasn't actually the first movie Ryan Reynolds was cast as Deadpool, believe it or not, but the less things said about that movie and that Deadpool the better. His fondness for the character is what got him cast again, and really, everybody agrees that he is the perfect choice for the role. He also played Hal Jordan Green Lantern in the DCverse but that wasn't very good, and even referenced in this movie as humourous self-deprecation.
I do like how one of the trailers for Free Guy (a highly recommended movie) makes considerable mileage about how Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi have *never ever* been in a movie together. They are lying. Yes, it was that bad.
I would love to see an MCU film where Deadpool just shows up half or three-quarters through, and just hijacks the plot ("I'M the protagonist, now! HAHAHA!"), and have it be completely unspoiled by advertising & promos. That would be such a Deadpool move.
That would be great, just turns into a Deadpool movie in the last quarter.
This is the perfect set-up for a Spiderman/Deadpool team up. DP shows up, gloms onto Spidey, and sticks around for the rest of the movie.
@@LordVolkov Well, ok, I'd watch it, but I like the idea that DP took over entirely, left the ostensible title character in the wind. Suddenly took the cameras' and microphones' focus onto himself, and just skated off. And then, as HIS movie progressed, we might catch 2-3 whiffs of the other plot in the background, via news reports & whatnot, but never get a clear idea of the whole thing.
This movie is PACKED with references to the various X-Men movies (since it's in the same universe). After you watch those movies, I highly recommend going back and watching Deadpool again. It'll feel like a different movie from your first watch.
“I know, right? You’re probably thinking, ‘Whose b***s did I have to fondle to get my very own movie?’ I can’t tell you his name, but it rhymes with ‘Polverine.’ And let me tell you, he’s got a nice pair of smooth criminals down under.”
😂😂
Their coffee/gin commercials together are absolutely hilarious!
YES! Please see Deadpool 2! This reaction was very fun -- thank you!
Thanks Robert!! Deadpool 2 for sure 👌
Another awesome reaction. This movie was perfect for Jen - Action, comedy, explosions, kissing. Jen you should definitely watch Deadpool 2 you won't be dissapointed.
LOL! Yes, she was vwry upset about the dirth of kissing in Serenity! This more than makes up, not just kissing, but even "International Women's Day" 😆
😂
The sarcastic opening credits really set the tone for Deadpool. The comic is incredibly self aware of the tropes of comics and the movie does the same with movies. Poking fun at the very tropes that allow such a movie to exist is very on point for Deadpool. And Ryan Reynolds is well aware of the reception of some of his other superhero movies (Wolverine:Origins & Green Lantern), so they get mocked mercilessly in good fun.
You will catch more reference jokes in Deadpool 2 if you watch the X-men movies first, but they aren't necessary to enjoy it.
Marvel deserves zero credit for this. They didn't want it, didn't understand it, and tried to stop it, and it only exists because fans revolted.
The character Deadpool has healing powers which is what is keeping his cancer at bay. His main super power, however, is breaking the fourth wall. In the comics he is constantly speaking to you (the reader).
Love that
This movie is so well done. Stayed true to the comics where Deadpool was constantly breaking the fourth wall. Keep up the awesome work Jen! Deadpool 2 I actually like a little more than this one, hope you do it as well
@@notimportant3686 that's cool if that's how you feel. Question is why do I care if you didn't like it? You trying to convince me I shouldn't?
Ryan Reynolds and Nathan Fillion both got their big break in a show called Two Guys and a Girl
Naturally, they both joked with each other about playing characters who dated Morena Baccarin
This came up so randomly in my feed, but I'm all about seeing people experience Deadpool for the first time. If you do the sequel, do the unedited cut. It has so many more jokes, but you may not get them all without watching the X-Men movies first.
Watching X-Men soon for sure! 👍
Actually, with X-Men, the first ones are arguably the best. One and two are REALLY good, three… ehh. Then they do a time-jump/ soft reboot with First Class, then Days of Future Past (people loved both), followed by Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix (which were just terrible). Then there are the three Wolverine movies, which start terrible and get much, MUCH better (the third is a must-see!)
Long story short? If you just want a primer on the X-Men universe, you can get away with watching just the first film. If you like it, then keep going.
Mostly agree with your assessment, but you really need to watch all the X-men movies to get all the references in Deadpool 2.
I almost think that for the best introduction to the X-Men, she should just go back and watch the 90s animated series.
I mean, I'd argue a few things:
1 - The first movie isn't, IMO, "really good". At least, not in a vacuum. I think it's "really good" only if you're evaluating it on a curve; it's not about being great in and of itself, but it lays the foundation for the larger universe really well. (Nothing wrong with that, I just think if it was a standalone movie, it'd be more "okay" than "really good".)
2 - Days of Future Past isn't just not good, it's bad: it perfectly encapsulates why the Wolverine franchise failed: it was SUPPOSED TO BE the X-Men. Not the Wolverine with his friends Prof X and Magneto. DoFP was Shadowcat's story.
3 - While I'd say that only watching 1 + 2 and stopping is probably the best way to keep it "long story short"... I'd actually recommend the cartoon over any of the movies if somebody wants to watch fun X-Men stories and get the gist of it.
I'd say watch them all in order except you can skip #3
oh and even though it's not good, you need to watch X-Men origins wolverine.
maybe even Green Lantern but you might be ok just reading reviews of that
I had to watch your deadpool reaction for the post credit scene since it was in today’s Ferris Bueller reaction lol and this is where your iconic profile picture is from, still looking lovely as always Jen.
I’m amazed that only one person mentioned The Green Lantern movie as one of the movies referenced in this movie that you missed the reference to. He’s a DC superhero, also played by Ryan Reynolds, and generally considered a poor movie (which they made fun of in this one).
I’m also surprised not enough people warned you about X3: The Last Stand, the third X-Men movie and definitely the worst one, as well as one of the worst superhero movies period. (There are a few others like Batman & Robin that give it a run for the money.)
Most of the takes mentioned here do seem to call out the best X-men movies and the other poor ones though.
Fantastic Four 1 & 2 are ok-ish, but I wouldn’t necessarily watch them (and definitely don’t watch the newer FF from a few years ago as others mentioned). Fortunately a new Fantastic Four movie is coming to the MCU soon, so 🤞 that it will be good. The only real reason to watch the older FF movies is to know who a particular character (avoiding spoilers) is before watching Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, but you could also read any FF comic or watch one of the old cartoons just to learn about them… not a big deal regardless. Also watch at least one episode of the 90s X-men cartoon and the first X-men movie before watching Dr. Strange and the M. Of M. movie for maximum understanding of references.
I love _Deadpool._
I also love the the first two X-Men movies, which are the ones I think you should start with.
Nice! Looking forward to those!! 👍👍

@@havok6280 k cool.. so I'm not crazy then. Coulda swore he was missing the 3rd in the original trilogy
"It's like I made you in a computer" is a reference to the movie "Weird Sceince"
So since you were curious in the comics Deadpool can literally never die, partly due to his crazy regeneration ability that is either on the same level as Xmen's Wolverine's or better than it, and partly due to Thanos literally making him unable to die because Death, Thanos' love interest, is in love with Deadpool. Quite possibly my favorite part of the Deadpool comics was the section where Weasel and Blind Al were supporting cast and I remember a large part of that section was Deadpool trying to die so he could be with Death. I have read most of the Deadpool comics apart from the current series and most of the first one that came out in the 60s or 70s. Deadpool is my favorite character in all of Marvel and I think Deadpool 1 and 2 are great portrayals of Deadpool.
Also Xmen is not required to enjoy Deadpool however if you choose to watch them just know that many of the Xmen movies are hit and miss and they are technically on a separate timeline to Deadpool. Deadpool 1 and 2 does make references to Xmen and the figures within but Xmen has always been more of an afterthought. Collossus and Negasonic may have some roles in Deadpool but I am pretty sure they are only there for familiarity and if it is meant to fit in the Xmen film timeline we would see more evidence of it and there is none.
"That's a face I'd be happy to sit on"
That made me cry. It was such a sweet thing to say to him.
Dunno if anyone's already clarified this (I'm seeing a lot of confirmations about the fourth wall breaking), but *Deadpool* looks the way he does because part of his mutation was to accelerate his cancer & spread it throughout his entire body, but his new, _hugely accelerated healing_ (again, his mutation) keeps it in check, stops it from killing him…
Basically, his cancer & healing are constantly at war inside his body.
Love, as always, coming your way Jen 🥰❤️
*P.S. -* The post-credits scene was a reference to the post-credits scene of _'Ferris Bueller’s Day Off'_ (which is definitely a movie you should watch, if you like 80s coming-of-age movies).
A funny but true story:
About 3 years ago, I was delivering sone plastic pipe to a mining operation in Colorado, and one of the guys there to receive the shipment was this English guy named Ajax!
I asked him if that was his real name - or, if it was really Francis, but he didn't get it - he hadn't seen the film yet!!! 🤣
"Please don't make the super suit green...." I don't think I've ever caught that line before.....LOL
Fun fact: long before this movie came out, the comic version of deadpool described his appearance as "Ryan Reynolds crossed with a radioactive sharpei"
Deadpool is the person in the Marvel universe who can annoy even the calmest hero/villain. If not the fourth wall breaking, he just doesn't shut up.
i just love how Francis nods at Wade as Colossus goes on about being a hero, like "just shoot me already"
It was 107 here in Florida today (with crazy high humidity) and I can not stop staring at that fireplace. Canada looks so nice. Please adopt me. ;-)
Lollll Canada is nice! We'll be happy to have you 😂👍
Even in the old cartoons Deadpool was barely innocent and quite graphic in nature. I remember in one Xmen episode someone turned one of his arms into perfectly round cutlets. He spent the most of it to one side of the scene in the background, while everyone else around him was fighting for their lives, while he tried to figure out which piece went where. (All he had to do was put the right piece in the right place and it would heal immediately) By the time he was finally finished the entire episode was over and so was the battle.
"what did i miss?"
the comic book version of Deadpool is also known for breaking the fourth wall. in the movies and his comic books, he does everything from pop culture references, commenting on what's going on to the reader, planning his next move, poking fun at the medium of comics, or even discussing the fact that the writer is doing a crappy job, grumble about the budget for the movie or that the producers were too cheap to put more X-Men in the movie, didn’t have the budget to do better CGI, make pop-culture references that the characters on-screen have no knowledge of, etc. He does this in the comics, too, chastising the editor, artist or writers.
- Should you watch Dead Pool 2 ? Yes, definitely . If you liked this one, you'll like that one . X-Men movie knowledge not required .
- Should you watch the X-Men movies ? Yes, with the understanding that some are better than others ... , and that they happen in an order , so start with the first one .
Also, slight slight spoiler (not really) that one of the X-Men movies tried to include Dead Pool (not the Dead Pool that you reacted to above) , and that Dead Pool came out ... almost universally disliked -- so much so that one of the "end credit" scenes in Dead Pool 2 , has Dead Pool murdering that other Dead Pool , from the X-Men movie .
(incidentally, both Dead Pool's were played by Ryan Raynolds ... who ... let's just say that he has a couple of regrets in his film career ... -- which he tries to erase in those end credits, with a wink / nod to the audience)
- Are the X-Men movies blending into the current "Marvel Universe" ?
We need to time travel for that question :
The X-Men movies (Dead Pool included) , were mostly produced by the 20th Century Fox studios, along with what was then a smaller production company called Marvel Studios . In the early 2010's , Disney went on a purchasing spree, and purchased Marvel Comics (including Marvel studios) , and the 20th Century Fox studios ( getting the rights to a slew of franchises, including Star Wars) .
What does that mean ?
It means that all of the X-Men movies + the two Dead Pool movies were made under Fox , and Disney is unlikely to continue that story timeline .
Disney did however choose to continue and expand the "Marvel Universe" movies, which were started with Ironman (which was made before the Disney purchase) .
TL;DR -- there won't be an X-Men / Marvel Universe crossover on the big screen , but in the years to come, Disney might re-boot and do their own X-Men movies, with different actors & origins .
I Like how he pays tribute to Ferris Bueller at the end...He's Wearing Ferris' Robe...
Thanks for inviting us along, Jen. Another actor from Firefly appears in Deadpool 2.
Ohh nice!! 👍
"What if you cut off his head?" Then you have Headpool, he flies around with a special hat with a helicopter rotor on top. Seriously, he started off as Zombiepool, had his head cut off, went on a multi-dimensional adventure, joined the Deadpool Corps. (Alternate versions of Deadpool from other universes) and died heroically in battle...sort of.
14:10 "don't make suit green" 😂 lol
I forgot about that burn!
In the comics Deadpool compares himself to Ryan Reynolds by name before Ryan Reynolds himself ever knew who Deadpool was
For real?!
@@jenmurrayxo yes, he says he looks like Ryan Reynolds crossed with a Shar-pei in one comic
the woman who did the "superhero landing" is also playing a role in the series "the mandalorian" from star wars. and when you said "is he gonna be an x-men?" in the series "x-men the annime" in one of the last episodes in one of the scene s you see him stand between the other heroes who protected the civilians.
14:30 "He _does_ talk a lot."
He's known as the merc with the mouth.
A huge advantage of Deadpool's self-awareness is that you can slot him into any movie, and he can just dial back the language/violence himself because he knows he's in a PG movie.
Deadpool & Wolverine is now kind of a bridge leading into the next chapter of X-Men, with the X-Men now becoming part of the MCU (they weren't before because Marvel had sold the rights to Fox years ago, now the rights have reverted back to Marvel, same with the Fantastic Four).

Deadpool can break the fourth wall and he has supernatural healing abilities....he can't die
The last scene where he talking to the camera in the robe. That is a homage to the movie Ferris Beullar's day off.
That ending in the robe was a spoof of the post-credits scene in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off".
Lots of smiles there Jen. It was like you REALLY like Ryan. Vanessa was able to get the love from fella that inara never got from Mal. Been a Ryan fan since his two guys a girl and a Pizza place. Coincidentally Nathan Fillion was also in that cast. If you're doing the x-men thing start with the x-men 2000. Has SOME background and is a nice starting point. Was nice to see the post credit Ferris Bueller homage. Happy memories Jen.
This got me through pancreatic cancer , second movie got me through lung cancer. It came about at the right time ⏲
Fuck dude. Congrats
Perfect movies to get you through those. Glad to hear you're ok 💙
@@jenmurrayxo thanks! Shame I got it again this year n they said they can't fix me lol
You should probably give "free guy" a watch with Ryan Reynolds too, excellent movie!
Omg YES you must see the X-Men films, ideally before seeing this Deadpool, but DEFINITELY before seing the sequel. Watch it in release order, and then the XMen First Class films.
"X-men Origins: Wolverine" is also a film you should see before Deadpool 2.
I think you possibly meant "Logan."
@@jean-paulaudette9246 Nah I was referring to "X-Mem Origins: Wolverine" .
It's highly likely that Ajax did get his name from the soap, but that got its name from a mythological Greek warrior, who coincidentally was said to have had great strength. There was even a RN warship called Ajax that fought at the Battle of the River Plate in WWII.
someone probably mentioned this but there is a comic series where his name is Captian Deadpool. I love the references made in this movie.
The budget for this movie was cut a few times (long story, interesting one) and one of the things they did to compensate was remove a few gunfights - including the end - hence Deadpool left his bag o' guns in the cab. I think it turned out better for it.
Master Molicule rule his head would grow a new body. That was broken in the comics once when he was blown up into 1000s of pieces. And there were 1000 Pools.
Great reaction Jen. Deadpool is awesome. He is hilarious and you definitely have to watch Deadpool 2.
Also watch the X-Men movies for sure. Start with the original X-Men from 2000. They're all pretty good.
Awesome! Will be watching X-Men soon! 👍 Thanks vic!
Somebody once pointed out that Wade was asking everyone where *Francis* is, but nobody knows him by that name. Wade sabotaged his own search!
Omg true
'Wade' shows up in the Wolverine origin movie as one of the group sent on a mission.
At 10:22 you said, "It's like a video game with all the catchphrases". I played the video game, before I saw the movies and it's just as mental. Even on an old PS2. And yes, he breaks the fourth wall in the game too.
There were a lot of references to other Marvel/X-Men movies, including making fun of the only prior version of Deadpool(which everybody hated including Reynolds who played the prior version). Also, that credits bit was a reference to the 80's classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
Colossus is a pretty famous member of the X-Men. Nega Sonic Teenage Warhead is not well known, except for her role in this film.
This almost could have been a Canada Day video (Actor and the character he plays are both Canadian). The second one is also very good, but it'd help to watch the first few X-Men movies first (would have helped with this one, too, but...) since some of the characters and concepts are based on the X-Men movies, and there are a lot of X-Men related jokes. Deadpool references stuff up to the Logan movie. So... yes, you should definitely watch the X-Men movies before Deadpool 2.
Deadpool is a Marvel character (as are the X-Men), but back in the 90s, Marvel was having some financial trouble so they sold off the movie rights to a bunch of their characters to different studios. The X-Men universe (including Deadpool) went to Fox (they also got the Fantastic Four franchise, among others). Spider-Man went to Sony, and so on. Marvel eventually started making their own movies with whatever characters they had left, like Iron Man. Then Disney bought Marvel, the MCU became a huge phenomenon. Disney wanted to get rights to all their characters back, especially since they'd sold off some of the best ones, so essentially leased Spider-Man back from Sony and bought Fox outright.... Anyway, this is a longwinded way to say that X-Men and Deadpool are Marvel characters, but the movies so far are not MCU movies, but yes, Deadpool 3 will be set in the MCU (they're working on it now). Oh, and yes, Deadpool 3 will be R-rated and the first MCU R-rated movie (Kevin Feige confirmed and approved).
Watching X-Men soon 👍
@@jenmurrayxo Nice. It can be a bumpy ride, especially toward the end, but there are a few superhero movie gems in there. Will look forward to seeing what you think.
1:47 A dead pool, also known as a deadpool or death pool, is a game of prediction which involves guessing when someone will die. Sometimes it is a bet where money is involved
The first time I saw this I had no idea what to expect. Boy was I surprised. And Morena, yowsa.
Jen, I'd start with the first X-Men, and then the next two, then watch the Wolverine films before you watch X-Men First Class and X-Men The Days of Future Past, you'll meet Wade in one of the Wolverine films. You can watch Deadpool 2 anytime you want as it won't effect you watching the X-Men films.
The first time I watched this film I was howling for like a good minute or two at “your poor wife!”.
Not a blip! I thought this was a reaction video. Each to their own, I guess.
The origin of the word dead pool.
Basically newspaper people keep biographies of people in case they die so that you can quickly air a peace on them when they do. So why not bet on it. A pool people who are likely to die and the one who gets the right answer wins.
Hence a Deadpool
I want to create a Grand Unified Film Reference Theory. All the movies you need to watch, all the movies you need to watch to get the references in those movies, and so on.
Wolverine once regenerated from a drop of blood, and Deadpool canonically has a better healing factor so he could survive decapitation, yes.
20:15 there is a deleted scene with the line "My stuntman's about to fuck you up!" from Deadpool. Wish they kept that one.
" worst part about cancer is what it does to the people you love "
I mean,that's sadly true :c very true
As for Deadpool's healing powers, he's immortal pretty much. In the comics he was reduced to a pile of ash, and survived.
It's actually so overpowered when it was stolen by another mutant, they exploded. Turns out, it needs his cancer to balance it out. The cancer serves as a limiter that keeps it from going wild and the healing factor constantly destroys the cancer as fast as it grows. A fucked up yin and yang
I love the fact that you're not averse to cursing, unlike some of my other favorite movie reactors. Your reactions are more akin to my own in that regard. You and Awkward Ashleigh share that dynamic. I don't believe you needed to see any of the X-Men films to understand this one. But there are some fun ones, so I'd definitely watch them for entertainment, not enlightenment regarding this film. It might help to watch at least one of them before you watch Deadpool 2, though. Not super important, but just for one particular sight gag. Anyway, keep up the good work!
Are you by chance talking about Cassie from popcorn in bed? I love her but she's a reactor that's too wholesome for this movie I think.
Also, the end of credits bathrobe scene was a homage to Ferri Buellers Day Off.
To understand the credit scene, you have to watch Ferris Beuler's Day Off through the credits.
That last part was a spoof on the ending of 'Ferris Bueler's Day Off'.
What I like about the X-Men movies is their sense of individuality, and their ability to think outside the box
Most MCU movies look the same, and they almost never take risks
In order: X-Men (2000), X2: X-Men 2, X-Men: Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, X-Men: First Class, The Wolverine, X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse, Logan, Deadpool 2 (if you can, watch the Super Duper Cut, that one includes the deleted scenes that where cut out from the theatrical version and the Super Duper Cut even has an end credit scene), Dark Phoenix and The New Mutants.
6 Underground is a must. Action packed the whole movie. I mean the whole movie. It's epic
I recommend catching up with X-men before Deadpool 2, it is not required, but the do share the same universe and there are few references to the previous X-men movies... and I genuinely think that the X-men series is great, some movies are better than others, but very enjoyable super hero movies.
Watching X-Men soon! 👍
This movie’s so damn good. Funny of course, great action of course, and truly one of the best love stories around. They are a genuinely wonderful couple and the actors have amazing chemistry.
This movie and the sequel are hilarious, awesome and even heartfelt.
Yes, Watch the X-Men Flicks! Start with X-Men (2000).
Watching X-Men soon 👍
That was a great premiere and reactions, Jen!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Looking forward to your Deadpool 2 reactions, and the other films you mentioned.
Thanks! I had a blast!! ☺️👍
he also wears two katanas crossed at his back and he knows how to use them!
You should never skip franchise movies.....ever. They all tell a piece of the story
Angel Dust played by gina carano is a former mixed martial artist she is very well trained
Deadpool is basically immortal. He’s also very sarcastic. Feels pain, but a very tough guy. And at the base he’s nice.
"This is like a video game...all the catch-phrases!"
Oh, if I can suggest playing the Playstation 4 "Deadpool" game, that is possibly the greatest favor I could do for you. Pure, nonstop comedy, from start to finish. I'd also advise against playing on the 'easy' level, or it is over far too quickly.
Loved the reaction jen. Ryan Reynolds was born to play Wade Wilson/ Deadpool. I think you would enjoy the Xmen movies, some are better than others.
There's actually a comic book where dead pool gets something cut and it makes another dead pool
