"... you don't die, do you?" "Nope." "Hurm."

I've never really been a fan of the "I'm a Marvel... and I'm a DC" parody videos (of the Mac/PC ads, natch). Oh, I've found them amusing enough, but rarely anything more than that.

That said... this? I am dying from how awesome this is:



If you don't know Deadpool, let me just say that this is in no way an exaggeration of the actual character. Wade Wilson is like if Freakazoid was put into the Weapon X program. And I, for one, would pay good money to see a Wade/Walter sitcom.

I just wish there was more Comedian. I think he and Wade would have a good rapport. Not to mention how he'd interact with Adrian.

I think this is the voice I'll hear whenever I read Wade, until/unless they do the DEADPOOL spin-off film with Ryan Reynolds, and really let him cut loose. Because say what you want about Ryan, he has to potential to be a PERFECT Deadpool if they do it right.

I hear he's actually one of the few bright spots in WOLVERINE in the beginning, what little he's in it. I dunno if I'm gonna see it, because wow, the reactions have been like an utter trainwreck. At least with X-MEN 3, we saw the trainwreck coming!

One critic wished, after seeing the opening sequence with Logan/Victor over the wars, that the movie had actually been like an immortal mutant version of THE DUELISTS, with them meeting to battle for years and years until they've forgotten why. Shit, I'd buy that for a dollar!

I LOVE THE FOUNTAIN. Mostly because I have a she-crush on Rachel Weisz. God, I will watch anything with that woman in it. Mmm.

Hugh Jackman is wonderful. I enjoy him in every movie he's been in. Yes, even that stupid one with Meg Ryan. He's good as Wolverine, but it hurts me to see him in a movie where everything around him just blows chunks.

It's because of THE FOUNTAIN that in my mind, Harvey and Gilda are Hugh And Rachel.

And also to have him in a PG-13 film, but not the hard, awesome PG-13 of X2 where could properly tear the shit out of people. I don't even like Wolverine, but dude, hardcore.

I have to see that movie again now. It's been a while. D:

It's a shame it wasn't more popular.

Hopefully it'll find an audience over time. Again, I know many people who dislike it, some who outright HATE HATE HATE it. Me, I long to see it on the big screen again, as it's meant to be seen.
