Watched on demand last weekend. Funny, but not what I expected. I liked it, laughed out loud many times. The production crew used our Cayenne TT as a camera car during filming so I had no choice but to watch it... :)

Caught this on the plane returning home today. I generally hate movies, and it's pretty rare that I literally laugh out loud at a film. So great.

It was very entertaining.

One an only vaguely related note, I'm stoked for the new Bourne movie to come out, Jason Bourne.

Finally got to watching it a week or so ago - hilarious and just a darned fun watch, albeit super crass. Reminded me of the first time I saw "Clerks" years ago - couldn't stop laughing and MAN! Great one-liners to memorize! What a hoot!

Deadpool was fantastic, saw it a few times, but I can't wait for Suicide Squad to come out on August 5th.

I just watched it on a plane, I'm not a big superhero movie guy but really enjoyed it.

Just saw it on the plane to Frankfurt. I give it close to a 10. Really liked it. My two teens did as well.

Rented it recently and thought it was very funny. I'm not into superhero movies but this was done in a different way, obviously.

Saw it, need to see it again.

On Green Lantern, I don't think Ryan Reynolds was that bad. But the Script? Horrible.

I read somewhere that in the wake of Deadpool's success, they re-wrote half of the dialogue in SS to make it funnier.

Shaun @ Tru6 07-01-2016 04:58 AM

That is good news. And I can understand why they would, just hope someone was smart enough to let SS have it's own feel and not just a DP2.

Perhaps it is because I don't watch any of the super hero movies, never read comic books, etc., but I found Dead Pool an interesting, sometimes funny concept but a really hard movie to watch.

I don't get hyper, romanticized violence. I just don't.

I'm sure I missed a lot of the inside jokes and references as well.

The comics are very much in the same light. Especially if you read a few of the recent trade paperbacks.

At 59, I enjoyed it. Saw it on DVD but would have paid to watch it in a theater.

I like Ryan Reynolds, though.

I never read comics when growing up. Always outside. Inside days were Legos and then building Spitfires and B17s. Closest I ever came to comics was watching The Maxx on MTV 20 years, but that's a comic unlike any other. Deep, disturbing. Definitely not for everyone.

So, what you are saying is that you do not know who Race Bannon is?

Hadji?

Benton Quest?

You do not know this monster?

Heh-heh.

You are but a pup.

Johnny Quest, maybe 67-ish.

Shaun @ Tru6 07-01-2016 06:31 PM

only in spirit.

Have The Maxx on VHS. Loved it on MTV but always appreciated a hero with a dark, troubled side. Batman was my guy from the beginning. Also built every WWII aircraft and tank I could find. Strung B-17s, -24's and -29's from the ceiling. Did one B-52 as well. Monogram got a lot of my money and had my vote over Revell's stuff without fail.
