The guy with no mouth Deadpool killed in the mid-credits scene was the much hated version of _Deadpool_ in X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), also played by Ryan Reynolds. Imagine a Deadpool with no mouth... what were they even thinking..?
That's why, in _Deadpool 1_ when Ajax threatens to have Wade's mouth sown shut, he replies, _"Ohhh, I wouldn't do that…" It was a reference to this particularly hated interpretation of the character. Another reference came when DP's voice over goes, "Shit just went sideways in the most colossal way," only for the camera to cut to an action figure of the _Origins_ Wade, and DP amends, "Okay, maybe not _the_ most…"
The people experimenting on the mutants to make them "obedient weapons" probably didnt need him to talk, just follow orders.If Ajax could have, he would have sown his mouth shut before giving him those healing powers.
I mean tbf she said right off the bat that Deadpool 1 did really well, I don't think she's interested in watching the x-men movies just continuing what gets views unfortunately.@@bossfan49
Yukio was such a treat to see. I think one of the reasons she really likes Wade is because of one of her superpowers. She has the ability to see how people die. And since Deadpool can't die it's probably a relief to her not being able to see such horrible or sad things. Hopefully they give her more to do in D3
Originally in the comic books Yukio is not a mutant and has no powers other than being a badass ninja that befriends and fights side by side with Logan. Yukio in The Wolverine movie is a badass ninja mutant with the ability to see others future deaths but that is it and Yukio in Deadpool 2 is a mutant with electrokinesis, they are all 3 the same character but are different in the 2 movies and the comic book.
The actress who plays Blind Al is Leslie Uggams, really big back during the 70s and early 80s...also a singer. She played Kizzy in the 70s version of Roots.
You missed a trivia bit. Originally vanisher's death wasn't seen. But since it was only for two seconds, they decided to ask Brad Pitt whose children loved Deadpool one. Plus, he did it for scale and a cup of coffee delivered by Ryan Reynolds.
1. Does T. Swift ever finally settle down? 2. What exciting new Oreo flavors have they come up with? 3. Do they find a cure for irritable bowel syndrome? Asking for a friend.
Wolverine/Logan being dead is from "Logan". The end credit scene where Deadpool shoots the guy is Deadpool shooting "himself" in the movie "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" A lot of people didn't like "X-Men Origins: Wolverine". Ryan Reynolds plays Wade in that movie and becomes who you see getting shot. That was Deadpool in that movie though they never call him that, they call him Weapon X. Cleaning up the timelines is him eliminating that version of Deadpool. In the first Deadpool movie, where Wade says he doesn't want a green CGI suit. Thats because he played The Green Lantern and when he shot himself and said "You're welcome Canada" he was eliminating the whole movie "The Green Lantern"
*YES.* The members of X-Force are (all but one) from the comic books. 🤓 Or rather, I should say, they're goofy, cartoonish parodies of the ones from the comics. 😅 All of them have been in some incarnation of "X-Force"... one way or another. And two of them have been X-Men as well. 1) Telford Porter (get it?), the *Vanisher,* is actually a teleporter, and an old X-Men foe from the '60s, who was later recruited by Wolverine (IIRC?) for the "darker and edgier" X-Force of the early 2000s. He's bald, skinny and much less attractive than Brad Pitt. 2) An X-Force OG, *Shatterstar* (who has many other names) comes from the alien dimension called Mojoworld, where the currency is TV share ratings and time flows differently, and is the son of two X-men (maybe... there have been many contradicting retcons). He is much more capable, durable and agile than what is shown in the movie, and also has a few more superpowers. Fun fact: Deadpool appared for the first time in New Mutants #98 as a bad guy and an *enemy* of the New Mutants (who were in the process of becoming X-Force), and after losing to the whole X-Force team, a few issues later was hyped again by kicking Shatterstar's ass... so the "I'm better than you at everything" line is doubly ironic, not just because it's clearly not true, but also because that's exactly how Deadpool was originally presented and hyped up, back in the '90s (the testosterone era of comics): Deadpool was impressive _because_ he could beat up Shatterstar. While making jokes, to boot. 3) The real OG, *Cable,* is possibly the most important X-Force character, since he was the one who took the (adolescent, mind you) New Mutants from the hands of people like Xavier and Magneto and forged them into the paramilitary squad called X-Force. Yes, he's from the future. Yes, he's also the son of two X-Men (or should I say one and a half? 🤔). Size aside, he's portrayed relatively faithfully by Brolin, here. The "Terminator-like" plot in this movie is also ironic, because... the movie Terminator copied Cable's original story from the comics, which came first. 😉 4) Neena Thurman, *Domino,* is our third (fourth, with Deadpool) OG from (around the time of) the formation of X-Force. A former colleague and lover of Cable, she is a badass mercenary skilled with guns and has the mutant power of "luck". Her luck didn't stop Deadpool's evil boss from kidnapping her and keeping her prisoner for months, so the first times we think we see Domino (New Mutants #98, just like Deadpool) it isn't actually her, but rather a shapeshifter mutant called Copycat (aka *_Vanessa_* Carlysle, hint hint) who took her place and infiltrated X-Force long before Domino even met them. The Domino from the comics is implied to be a slightly older lady (although she doesn't want to tell her age), and is an almost literal chromatic inversion from the one in the movie (she has chalk white skin and straight black hair, with a large black spot tattoo around her left eye). Her favorite LP is "Never mind the Bollocks" by Sex Pistols. She's had a one night stand with Wolverine. But then again... who hasn't? 😅 5) *Zeitgeist* is a very particular case, and probably the one that inspired this whole vignette, now that I think about it. 🧐 He was the leader of the first formation of X-Statix / X-Force. X-Statix was a very unconventional and provocative comic book (in one story, they were supposed to resurrect Lady Diana, but then Marvel vetoed it, so the writers replaced her with a generic fictional pop star). In the first story the mission goes badly: *_Zeitgeist and almost every member of X-Force die,_* leaving to the company higher ups the task of rebuilding the team with new recruits (they treat it like a reality show). It's worth pointing out that, even past this initial "big shock value" moment, many of the new members of the team were killed by one gun toting criminal or another, further down the story. X-Statix has a crazy high mortality rate, but people keep applying to work there, because it makes them rich and popular. Now... it was originally called X-Force and was later renamed X-Statix. However, there are incarnations of X-Force before and after this one, and none of those ever reference or meet X-Statix or its characters. While not officially confirmed (as far as I know), it's widely believed that, even though they interact with some version of Professor X, Wolverine and Doop on the pages of X-Statix, they're probably in an alternate dimension, and therefore not linked to the "real" X-Force and X-Men. 6) *Bedlam* is another weird case. Originally appearing in the alternate reality called Age of Apocalypse (a masterpiece of a story), different versions of the two Bedlam brothers were later seen on the pages of Cannonball's formation of X-Force, in the "main" Marvel universe. Here, one of them was a hero and the other a villain. Terry Crews, here, seems to be a gestalt, a fusion of both Bedlam brothers, and claims to have both their powers (not that he uses them much). 7) The normie *Peter* is not from the comics, as far as I know. *_BONUS!_* 😄 8) Russell "Rusty" Collins, codename *Firefist,* is tall, fit, handsome, sometimes blond, sometimes ginger, definitely not kiwi, and is almost always shown together with his mutant girlfriend Sally Blevins, codename Skids. He was one of many mutant kids saved by the original X-Factor team. Later he and Skids joined the New Mutants, and after that the Mutant Liberation Front, a terrorist group that was a thorn in the side of X-Force for a while, until X-Men and X-Factor (plus two X-Force members) spectacularly shut them down and rescued Rusty and Skids, who were revealed to have been brainwashed by the bad guys all along (pshyeah, right... 😏). 9) *Yukio* appears to be another gestalt. Part of her seems to be Surge, aka Ashida Noriko, a blue-haired teenager with electric superpowers that was part of a few New X-Men student teams. And her other half is the original Yukio, a Tokyo based adult woman who's a skilled ninja-like sometimes hero sometimes criminal. The original Yukio is bisexual and has had flings with both Storm and, of course, Wolverine. But then again... who hasn't? 😅
Brad Pitt did the cameo as Vanisher as a favor to the director, who used to be Brad Pitt's stunt double. Ryan Reynolds returned the favor by doing a cameo in the director's next movie Bullet Train. Also, the guys talking about toilet paper when Cable shows up is Matt Damon and Alan Tudyk.
Cable and Deadpool were both created by Rob Liefeld... who is indeed infamous for his inability to draw, among other things, feet. (Disclaimer: he _has,_ on occasion though not often, drawn fairly passable feet.)
@@aaronbeatdownThey were always below the panel, just off frame, or he hid feet behind some foreground object, sound effect, or even speech balloons, or the characters was some blocky character with massive boots that barely had toes. But for all that, Deadpool and Cable are still around.
@@kevinramsey417Yeah. Pouches, really tiny pouches on the belt, the shoulder harness, the bootstraps, the wrists, you name it. Oh, and the furious face with the snarl full of like nine million perfect teeth! 🤨
Additional trivia fact: For Christmas 2018, a PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 was released, titled "Once Upon a Deadpool". It was a heavily edited version of the extended cut of Deadpool 2, along with new footage filmed starring Ryan as Deadpool and Fred Savage as himself in an homage to Fred's role in "The Princess Bride" with Deadpool playing the grandfather role.
FYI - that was Matt Damon and Alan Tudyk standing by the pick-up truck talking about wet wipes. :) If you liked this version, you should check out the Unrated one - The Super Duper Cut or The Super Duper $@%!#& Cut
I've watched this movie so many times. I had no idea that was matt damon, but after this i went back and now his voice is so recognizable, i cant unhear him. that's awesome
Not to mention Canada's own Celine Dion singing the opening. I feel like this has become a little performative lately. Like it's more about saying something even if it's just repeating or narrating what we just saw while adding little else. For someone who opens her videos saying she's got her "filmmaking thinking cap on" she was way too enthralled with the same gag from the first movie with the comedic credits that she wasn't actually paying attention to the far more interesting and arguably more impressive design of the sequence accompanied by a genuinely great and original ballad.
@@WolfPlaysGames2 What people? I think it's safe to assume most people going to see D3 are already fans of the MCU. Besides. Most of the jokes are contextual and anything important from a story standpoint will get some exposition. Probably from Deadpool himself. He's kind of perfect for that since they don't have to come up with a convoluted reason why two characters are telling each other things they already know. He can just say it right to the audience.
@@uosdwiSrdewoH People like Shanelle. She watched Iron Man, but she said she only likes origin stories, so I don't think she's going to watch the rest of the MCU.
🎶 Holy shitballs it's the Juggernaut!!! 🎶 I love a good theme song and it's so perfect for a comic-accurate Juggy. "I'm gonna tear you in half now..." while DP fanboys over him is a hilarious introduction.
Josh’s character is Cable, son of Cyclops and Jean Grey clone, Madeline Pryor. The reference to Black Tom is a X-men villain that is the evil brother of Banshee.
@@pauwoo in the animated series Black Tom was his brother and Black Tom is immune to Banshee’s powers because they are related. Banshee is immune to Black Tom’s mutant powers.
22:49 - My 1-2-3 for the future: 1 ) Did the McRib finally make a definitive come back? 2 ) Did they find Jimmy Hoffas body yet? 3 ) Has Ryan Reynolds impeccable acting skills finally been recognized by the Academy?
"What does Patrick Stewart smell like, guys?" It's an earthy combination of the Knighthood of the UK, the Spice of Arrakis, the Unity of the Borg, and countless wardrobes from live theater. Hope that helps.
Yentl (1983). The Streissand singing movie was Yentl. One Academy award (original score) plus four nominations, two Golden Globes (musical or comedy - _definitely_ the _first_ one of those -, director) plus four nominations, couple Grammy nominations, and so on. You can tell because of the _"Papa can you hear me?"_ bit, and the fact that it looks like one of Goya's black paintings. EDIT: Oh, wait, he does mention it later. And "Do you want to build a snowman" _does_ sound a lot like it, doesn't it..?
In the final scene with Vanessa in the afterlife Take on Me is playing as the barrier is breached it's an homage to the original AhHa video for the song.
Blind Al is played by Leslie Uggams, a Tony Award winning theater actress along with being a singer and film and TV actress. Her most famous role beyond Deadpool is probably in Roots. She is also in American Fiction which just won Best Adapted Screenplay at the Oscars.
It's a fantastic movie, but the emotional moments and references definitely won't hit as hard without all that character development of the good (and bad) X-Men movies.
For context: Cable was infected with a techno-organic virus, hence his appearance as half machine. The other mutants in X-Force are canon. Domino's power is very comical and seemingly benign; however, it is quite dark. If you notice how she survives, but how much death and destruction is around her, she pretty much steals everyone else's luck. Vanisher's power was primarily teleportation. Bedlam is pretty much spot on in powers, so is Zeitgeist.
49:50 so the trivia didn't fully explain it. the additional scenes they shot were used in promotional material. so in the commercials you saw them all in action and would expect it to be in the film but instead they subvert your expectations. deadpool just has some of the best promotional material. the Bob Ross parody was another good one
I think it was deadpool 2.. Might have been one.. But the phone booth where he is trying to get into his outfit and save the day while the person he's trying to save is just being horribly messed up. Lol
I don't think any of those movies listed should be watched by ANYONE...EVER! Unless we need to extract information of vital importance to national security. They belong right above waterboard and right below naked taser hooded pyramid
Who knew that when Vanessa said, "Your heart is not in the right place," she meant the _actual internal organ_ and that "the right place" was in between a troubled teen and a bullet?
if I recall correctly Domino actually sucks the luck from all around her. Which makes her super lucky. So playing with an immortal (in the comics Thanos made DP immortal so DP can’t be “witth” Death. They both had a crush on Death) works out well.
From memory, her 'luck' is more Probability Manipulation; where she can subconsciously alter probabilities to always give herself the best outcome in any situation that has variables. Unfortunately improving her odds always worsens the odds of everyone else.
Great fun, Shanelle! Juggernaut has always been associated with the X-Men because he's Charles Xavier's step-brother, but he started out as a Doctor Strange villain. He's not a mutant. His powers come from magic. He's supposed to be literally unstoppable and immovable. It's the armor.
On the first one, in the bar, where TJ Miller first saw Deadpool's face, they spent a lot of time, just adlibbing one-liners. There were a few they dropped, then said "Nope ...nope... not going there".
The guy who plays Shatterstar (the red haired alien who gets taken out by the helicopter) is Lewis Tan, he's an amazing martial artist and he has the worst luck in whatever he's cast in imo so whenever I see him I always get so excited lmao.
This one I saw here on my computer. I had heard a lot of good things when it came out. Then I saw a lot of both Deadpool AND this one from several reactors many months ago, so I finally decided to check the movies out from start to finish. This one *definitely* ups the ante on the emotional side, for sure. And the humor did not disappoint, they kept that at the same level as before. I'm so glad I finally got around to watching them, and you! Also: 1) Love the nails, hadn't seen that lime green color before. Looks good on you. 2) Did Ashleigh message you? I've been reminding her all month that today's your cake day, and she said earlier today on Twitch she sent you a message. Oh, and on that note congrats on turning...26 years old! 😁
In the Comics Juggernaut is not a mutant and the supression collar wouldn't work. N2m his head covering is to protect from psionic attacks and no prison would let him keep it.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we're back to not being notified of anything by TH-cam. Nothing good ever lasts. Oh well, at least I'm here now. Also: HaPpY BiRtHdAy Shanelle!!! 🥳
"His Are you my mother complex" Could quite well be from a season one episode of Doctor Who. Ther is a boy with a gas mask stuck on his face during the London Blitz of WWII. The little boy asks everyone, "Are you My Mummy". Right before he infects them
The biggest line that killed opening nite with my audience was when Ryan Reynolds quiped to Josh Brolin: 'Calm down, Thanos.' Josh played two major antagonists in two Marvel IP films a year apart.
I just want to give a shout out to young Julian Dennison who not only held his own against some serious on-screen talent but managed to steal some scenes. Think the only thing you missed was how Brad Pitt got into the movie. He did the cameo just for fun, a sandwich and a cup of coffee. Now, let's all pray Disney doesn't screw up Deadpool 3.
I saw this film in the theater and nearly passed out laughing when Wade staggered over to Cable with those tiny legs. That scene nearly killed me. In fact I can't recall a movie that made me laugh as much as this film did for such a long time,
And from the first movie, when he shouts at intake to not make the superset green or CGI, that's also a shot at Green Lantern. And the end credits scene, where Wade says he's cleaning up the timeline, without spoiling it, let's just say the studio tried to kill Deadpool. Really, watch "X-Men Origins:Wolverine" and see how they tried to "kill" Deadpool. The funny thing too, is that the studio actually got Ryan Reynolds to play Wade Wilson.
Back in the mid-80's, there was a table top RPG set in the James Bond World. If you rolled really well on a skill check, you could earn a "Hero Point." If you needed to be lucky later on, you could spend a point or two to survive the unsurvivable. It was implied by the game rules that the movies relied heavily on this mechanic.
Your question at 18:33 - "Sorting hat" I'm pretty sure is a reference to the Harry Potter movies (which had a sorting hat in the first one to figure out which house new arrivals should join). Great reaction - it's fun watching how much fun you had watching this and DP 1. 👍
Yes Shanelle, I got choked up by the emotion too. And yes, I only learned today that RR played Jugg and Matty D was the one guy of two when Cable arrives. Wasn't the other guy Alan Tudyk? Looked like him to me. I did not recognize Brad when I saw the film.
I was queuing outside Comic Con in 2016, I think the first Deadpool came out in February and this was March or April. A lot of Deadpool cosplayers that year. one of them was outside going up and down the queue generally being cool, high fiving people and stuff. I called "I love you in the movie!" and he gave me wo finger guns and called back "I love YOU!" and that was rad. Deadpool rules ^_^
These movies hit the mark. As you pointed out part is the process but the other is just giving the audience what they know the audience wants and executing it perfectly.
The thing with cables arm is it's a techno organic virus that's slowly consuming him Josh brolin plays cable fantastically the sheer menace he exudes is brilliant.
The movie also referenced the movie Goonies for example, when Deadpool's says to a cable about the crack with one eye. Willie, that was a reference too. The pirate from Goonies and when Deadpool was healing from being ripped in half. He was wearing their shirt homage to Jeffrey Bertan Cohen the chubby kid from The Goonies. And when Deadpool said zip it Thanos to cable. A reference to the avengers where Josh, brolin played Thanos in The avengers movies
Not going to lie - the old Deadpool PC game was one of my guilty pleasures back in the day. The voice actor they got for Deadpool nailed it. Didn't hurt that Psylocke, Rogue and OG Domino were featured in the game in all their glory as well. Ahem.
After the Deadpool 1 reaction this was the reaction I had been most anticipating; and it did not disappoint. This is my favorite of the Deadpool movies, and I can’t wait for the third movie!
@@ShanelleRiccio the Deadpool films have a chance to be up there with some of the all time great franchises/trilogies. It just goes to show what happens when you put people in charge of something who care about the product they are working on. Like James Gunn and the Gardens of the Galaxy trilogy.
I recommend, 'Wayne.' It was a TH-cam Original that was criminally cancelled after one season. It was, 'brought to you by the people that made deadpool.' And it shows.
I love your reactions to action comedies and I would like to suggest that you react to Bullet Train. The Streisand movie was Yentl. I missed the Matt Damon cameo the first time, too. I was also surprised to find that the guy Matt was talking to was played by Alan Tudyk.
Great reaction like always, you should have seen Logan before this movie to get that Logan reference and so many others. Tucker and Dale vs Evil cameo was Matt Damon and Alan Tudyk, Matt Damon, who was completely unrecognizable with a large beard. In the film's credits, Damon was also credited as "Dickie Greenleaf," which is a reference to The Talented Mr. Ripley. Keep up the good work.

The guy with no mouth Deadpool killed in the mid-credits scene was the much hated version of _Deadpool_ in X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), also played by Ryan Reynolds. Imagine a Deadpool with no mouth... what were they even thinking..?
The merc... Without a mouth?!
Idk, seemed like a good plan to watch a movie that is 90% references, having not watched any of the references.
That's why, in _Deadpool 1_ when Ajax threatens to have Wade's mouth sown shut, he replies, _"Ohhh, I wouldn't do that…" It was a reference to this particularly hated interpretation of the character.
Another reference came when DP's voice over goes, "Shit just went sideways in the most colossal way," only for the camera to cut to an action figure of the _Origins_ Wade, and DP amends, "Okay, maybe not _the_ most…"
@@SebastianWeinberg Guess I don't remember the origins figure joke.. But that is a good one.
The people experimenting on the mutants to make them "obedient weapons" probably didnt need him to talk, just follow orders.If Ajax could have, he would have sown his mouth shut before giving him those healing powers.
I love that he referenced Thanos and One Eyed Willie, both references to Josh Brolin’s filmography.
And the fact that he also played "W" in the movie of the same name.
The hawaiian shirt Wade is wearing when he's at home with baby legs, that's Chunk's shirt from Goonies.
You should see "Logan" to get the Wolverine reference, and also "X-Men: Origins: Wolverine" to understand the moment you called 'saving Wolverine".
Yeah, several of us recommended she watch the earlier Xmen movies, but.....
@@bossfan49 I had a friend that watched Endgame without seeing any of the other MCU movies. I still find that weird. I need to know what's going on.

It would be REALLY good for her channel to do the whole x-men series.
He didn't save Wolverine at the end, he was getting rid of the very bad Deadpool that he played in X-Mex Origins: Wolverine.
Yukio was such a treat to see. I think one of the reasons she really likes Wade is because of one of her superpowers. She has the ability to see how people die. And since Deadpool can't die it's probably a relief to her not being able to see such horrible or sad things.
Hopefully they give her more to do in D3
Yukio is most definitely NOT my spirit animal...
...but I WANT her to be.
Originally in the comic books Yukio is not a mutant and has no powers other than being a badass ninja that befriends and fights side by side with Logan.
Yukio in The Wolverine movie is a badass ninja mutant with the ability to see others future deaths but that is it and Yukio in Deadpool 2 is a mutant with electrokinesis, they are all 3 the same character but are different in the 2 movies and the comic book.
Well, IF they are all different, that means they are the same in that way...

*YES.*
The members of X-Force are (all but one) from the comic books. 🤓
Or rather, I should say, they're goofy, cartoonish parodies of the ones from the comics. 😅
All of them have been in some incarnation of "X-Force"... one way or another. And two of them have been X-Men as well.
1) Telford Porter (get it?), the *Vanisher,* is actually a teleporter, and an old X-Men foe from the '60s, who was later recruited by Wolverine (IIRC?) for the "darker and edgier" X-Force of the early 2000s.
He's bald, skinny and much less attractive than Brad Pitt.
2) An X-Force OG, *Shatterstar* (who has many other names) comes from the alien dimension called Mojoworld, where the currency is TV share ratings and time flows differently, and is the son of two X-men (maybe... there have been many contradicting retcons).
He is much more capable, durable and agile than what is shown in the movie, and also has a few more superpowers.
Fun fact: Deadpool appared for the first time in New Mutants #98 as a bad guy and an *enemy* of the New Mutants (who were in the process of becoming X-Force), and after losing to the whole X-Force team, a few issues later was hyped again by kicking Shatterstar's ass... so the "I'm better than you at everything" line is doubly ironic, not just because it's clearly not true, but also because that's exactly how Deadpool was originally presented and hyped up, back in the '90s (the testosterone era of comics): Deadpool was impressive _because_ he could beat up Shatterstar. While making jokes, to boot.
3) The real OG, *Cable,* is possibly the most important X-Force character, since he was the one who took the (adolescent, mind you) New Mutants from the hands of people like Xavier and Magneto and forged them into the paramilitary squad called X-Force.
Yes, he's from the future.
Yes, he's also the son of two X-Men (or should I say one and a half? 🤔).
Size aside, he's portrayed relatively faithfully by Brolin, here.
The "Terminator-like" plot in this movie is also ironic, because... the movie Terminator copied Cable's original story from the comics, which came first. 😉
4) Neena Thurman, *Domino,* is our third (fourth, with Deadpool) OG from (around the time of) the formation of X-Force. A former colleague and lover of Cable, she is a badass mercenary skilled with guns and has the mutant power of "luck".
Her luck didn't stop Deadpool's evil boss from kidnapping her and keeping her prisoner for months, so the first times we think we see Domino (New Mutants #98, just like Deadpool) it isn't actually her, but rather a shapeshifter mutant called Copycat (aka *_Vanessa_* Carlysle, hint hint) who took her place and infiltrated X-Force long before Domino even met them.
The Domino from the comics is implied to be a slightly older lady (although she doesn't want to tell her age), and is an almost literal chromatic inversion from the one in the movie (she has chalk white skin and straight black hair, with a large black spot tattoo around her left eye).
Her favorite LP is "Never mind the Bollocks" by Sex Pistols.
She's had a one night stand with Wolverine. But then again... who hasn't? 😅
5) *Zeitgeist* is a very particular case, and probably the one that inspired this whole vignette, now that I think about it. 🧐
He was the leader of the first formation of X-Statix / X-Force. X-Statix was a very unconventional and provocative comic book (in one story, they were supposed to resurrect Lady Diana, but then Marvel vetoed it, so the writers replaced her with a generic fictional pop star).
In the first story the mission goes badly: *_Zeitgeist and almost every member of X-Force die,_* leaving to the company higher ups the task of rebuilding the team with new recruits (they treat it like a reality show). It's worth pointing out that, even past this initial "big shock value" moment, many of the new members of the team were killed by one gun toting criminal or another, further down the story. X-Statix has a crazy high mortality rate, but people keep applying to work there, because it makes them rich and popular.
Now... it was originally called X-Force and was later renamed X-Statix. However, there are incarnations of X-Force before and after this one, and none of those ever reference or meet X-Statix or its characters.
While not officially confirmed (as far as I know), it's widely believed that, even though they interact with some version of Professor X, Wolverine and Doop on the pages of X-Statix, they're probably in an alternate dimension, and therefore not linked to the "real" X-Force and X-Men.
6) *Bedlam* is another weird case.
Originally appearing in the alternate reality called Age of Apocalypse (a masterpiece of a story), different versions of the two Bedlam brothers were later seen on the pages of Cannonball's formation of X-Force, in the "main" Marvel universe. Here, one of them was a hero and the other a villain.
Terry Crews, here, seems to be a gestalt, a fusion of both Bedlam brothers, and claims to have both their powers (not that he uses them much).
7) The normie *Peter* is not from the comics, as far as I know.
*_BONUS!_* 😄
8) Russell "Rusty" Collins, codename *Firefist,* is tall, fit, handsome, sometimes blond, sometimes ginger, definitely not kiwi, and is almost always shown together with his mutant girlfriend Sally Blevins, codename Skids.
He was one of many mutant kids saved by the original X-Factor team.
Later he and Skids joined the New Mutants, and after that the Mutant Liberation Front, a terrorist group that was a thorn in the side of X-Force for a while, until X-Men and X-Factor (plus two X-Force members) spectacularly shut them down and rescued Rusty and Skids, who were revealed to have been brainwashed by the bad guys all along (pshyeah, right... 😏).
9) *Yukio* appears to be another gestalt.
Part of her seems to be Surge, aka Ashida Noriko, a blue-haired teenager with electric superpowers that was part of a few New X-Men student teams.
And her other half is the original Yukio, a Tokyo based adult woman who's a skilled ninja-like sometimes hero sometimes criminal.
The original Yukio is bisexual and has had flings with both Storm and, of course, Wolverine. But then again... who hasn't? 😅
Brad Pitt did the cameo as Vanisher as a favor to the director, who used to be Brad Pitt's stunt double. Ryan Reynolds returned the favor by doing a cameo in the director's next movie Bullet Train.
Also, the guys talking about toilet paper when Cable shows up is Matt Damon and Alan Tudyk.
Cable and Deadpool were both created by Rob Liefeld... who is indeed infamous for his inability to draw, among other things, feet. (Disclaimer: he _has,_ on occasion though not often, drawn fairly passable feet.)
But dammit, the man can do pouches. ALL MUST BE POUCHES
@@kevinramsey417 So many pouches.
In fact, pretty much any reason he could come up with to not draw feet, he took.
@@aaronbeatdownThey were always below the panel, just off frame, or he hid feet behind some foreground object, sound effect, or even speech balloons, or the characters was some blocky character with massive boots that barely had toes.
But for all that, Deadpool and Cable are still around.
@@kevinramsey417Yeah. Pouches, really tiny pouches on the belt, the shoulder harness, the bootstraps, the wrists, you name it. Oh, and the furious face with the snarl full of like nine million perfect teeth! 🤨
'You're welcome, Canada.' Best, most appropriate reaction. Ever.
Additional trivia fact:
For Christmas 2018, a PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 was released, titled "Once Upon a Deadpool". It was a heavily edited version of the extended cut of Deadpool 2, along with new footage filmed starring Ryan as Deadpool and Fred Savage as himself in an homage to Fred's role in "The Princess Bride" with Deadpool playing the grandfather role.
I STILL haven't seen that. Have no idea where to find it, either.
@@TedBroganyou can still find once upon a Deadpool on 📀 and blu ray with digital code.
its on Disney + @@TedBrogan
Patrick Stewart smells like Earl Grey Tea, of course! XD
FINALLY someone noticed the cure for blindness, the last 6 or so people that I've watched didn't see the reference
FYI - that was Matt Damon and Alan Tudyk standing by the pick-up truck talking about wet wipes. :)
If you liked this version, you should check out the Unrated one - The Super Duper Cut or The Super Duper $@%!#& Cut
I saw the extended cut of Deadpool 2 on blu ray.
I've watched this movie so many times. I had no idea that was matt damon, but after this i went back and now his voice is so recognizable, i cant unhear him. that's awesome
Julien Dennison, who plays Russell, got his start in a Taika Waititi film, Hunt For The Wilderpeople. He stars alongside Sam Neil, and it's amazing.
Missed the whole joke of classic James Bond opening credits sequence.
Not to mention Canada's own Celine Dion singing the opening. I feel like this has become a little performative lately. Like it's more about saying something even if it's just repeating or narrating what we just saw while adding little else. For someone who opens her videos saying she's got her "filmmaking thinking cap on" she was way too enthralled with the same gag from the first movie with the comedic credits that she wasn't actually paying attention to the far more interesting and arguably more impressive design of the sequence accompanied by a genuinely great and original ballad.
43:00 its exactly an analogy for conversion therapy
Patrick Stewart played Professor X in the original X-men movie series. The headset was his.
Also, if you don't go through the X-men series before Deadpool 3... I won't be angry, just disappointed.
I don't know how people are going to understand D3 without seeing the MCU first....
"the headset." 😂
@@WolfPlaysGames2 What people? I think it's safe to assume most people going to see D3 are already fans of the MCU. Besides. Most of the jokes are contextual and anything important from a story standpoint will get some exposition. Probably from Deadpool himself. He's kind of perfect for that since they don't have to come up with a convoluted reason why two characters are telling each other things they already know. He can just say it right to the audience.
@@uosdwiSrdewoH People like Shanelle. She watched Iron Man, but she said she only likes origin stories, so I don't think she's going to watch the rest of the MCU.
🎶 Holy shitballs it's the Juggernaut!!! 🎶
I love a good theme song and it's so perfect for a comic-accurate Juggy. "I'm gonna tear you in half now..." while DP fanboys over him is a hilarious introduction.
The actress that plays Vanessa plays Inara on Firefly.
Yes, Morena Baccarin. Also, a bad alien in reboot of the show V.
@@Saiman9000 Oh yeah! I totally forgot that was her on V. I only watched it because she was in it. Super hot.
@@joeblankenship377 Me too. Now I think on it, Don't remember anything else.
She's also great in Gotham and Homeland
@@jasonrd316 I never watched Homeland, but I did watch Gotham for a bit. Eventually I was bored and just stopped. Didn't even watch the final episode.
Josh’s character is Cable, son of Cyclops and Jean Grey clone, Madeline Pryor. The reference to Black Tom is a X-men villain that is the evil brother of Banshee.
And Juggernaut is Pro. X, braddah///
@biguy617 He is Banshee's cousin
@@pauwoo in the animated series Black Tom was his brother and Black Tom is immune to Banshee’s powers because they are related. Banshee is immune to Black Tom’s mutant powers.
22:49 - My 1-2-3 for the future:
1 ) Did the McRib finally make a definitive come back?
2 ) Did they find Jimmy Hoffas body yet?
3 ) Has Ryan Reynolds impeccable acting skills finally been recognized by the Academy?
Ryan, is that you?
@@davelister2961 😁
Deadpool calls Cable, "One Eyed Willie". A reference to Goonies, staring a teenage Josh Brolin.
"What does Patrick Stewart smell like, guys?" It's an earthy combination of the Knighthood of the UK, the Spice of Arrakis, the Unity of the Borg, and countless wardrobes from live theater. Hope that helps.
And a bit of Earl Grey Tea. 😊
I love what you did. I also would have added some Leondagrance from John Boorman's Excalibur.
I don't know, but it's engaging
And every scent of A Christmas Carol all on one person.
Tea. Earl grey. Hot 😂
Yentl (1983). The Streissand singing movie was Yentl. One Academy award (original score) plus four nominations, two Golden Globes (musical or comedy - _definitely_ the _first_ one of those -, director) plus four nominations, couple Grammy nominations, and so on. You can tell because of the _"Papa can you hear me?"_ bit, and the fact that it looks like one of Goya's black paintings.
EDIT: Oh, wait, he does mention it later. And "Do you want to build a snowman" _does_ sound a lot like it, doesn't it..?
Oddly, Streisand looks EXACTLY like Brolin's real-life mother.
@@OneVoiceMorei guess his dad has a type, then.
I think she looks more like his stepmother. @OneVoiceMore
@@patrickseidel8625 OOOOOooooh!
Nit?
PICKED!
I may have a use for you.
@@patrickseidel8625 I go by what Josh calls her. You do you.
I'm so happy you noticed the cocaine next to the cure for blindness! You're the first reactor that I've seen that actually noticed that callback.
2:48 - This is one of those "trust the filmmakers, they'll explain everything" kinda moments.
In the final scene with Vanessa in the afterlife Take on Me is playing as the barrier is breached it's an homage to the original AhHa video for the song.
Never thought of that.
Blind Al is played by Leslie Uggams, a Tony Award winning theater actress along with being a singer and film and TV actress. Her most famous role beyond Deadpool is probably in Roots. She is also in American Fiction which just won Best Adapted Screenplay at the Oscars.
Would be interested to see how you react to Logan, after not watching all of the previous movies.
I, for one, was sobbing for the entire movie.
It's a fantastic movie, but the emotional moments and references definitely won't hit as hard without all that character development of the good (and bad) X-Men movies.
Maybe watch all the previous movies otherwise you waste logan
@@lolmao500 It’s such a chore though. Logan might be a great film but all the movies to watch before that aren’t that great.
@@MetastaticMaladies Very hit-and-miss, but I'd give them a B or B- overall. There are a few gems in there.
@@SilentBob731 I admit there are some good ones, but there’s still quite a lot to sit through and I can understand why some don’t think it’s worth it.
For context:
Cable was infected with a techno-organic virus, hence his appearance as half machine.
The other mutants in X-Force are canon.
Domino's power is very comical and seemingly benign; however, it is quite dark. If you notice how she survives, but how much death and destruction is around her, she pretty much steals everyone else's luck.
Vanisher's power was primarily teleportation.
Bedlam is pretty much spot on in powers, so is Zeitgeist.
Forrest Gump also had Domino's power.
49:50 so the trivia didn't fully explain it. the additional scenes they shot were used in promotional material. so in the commercials you saw them all in action and would expect it to be in the film but instead they subvert your expectations. deadpool just has some of the best promotional material. the Bob Ross parody was another good one
I think it was deadpool 2.. Might have been one.. But the phone booth where he is trying to get into his outfit and save the day while the person he's trying to save is just being horribly messed up. Lol
“Let’s make a superhero parody movie”
Soooo.. who wants to tell her about superhero movie?
Right? She should also watch Super (Rainn Wilson) and Mystery Men (Ben Stiller)
Love Mystery Men (especially Blue Rajah).
I don't think any of those movies listed should be watched by ANYONE...EVER! Unless we need to extract information of vital importance to national security. They belong right above waterboard and right below naked taser hooded pyramid
@@BrettShadow Superhero Movie I get but you don't like Mystery Men or Super?
"I wanna be in Deadpool!"
Vanessa before getting the strap probably.
😂😂
I never got the 'white pants' joke until she made the 'I get _that_ joke' expression. I should'a known better.
Who knew that when Vanessa said, "Your heart is not in the right place," she meant the _actual internal organ_ and that "the right place" was in between a troubled teen and a bullet?
Awww, you missed two of the funniest callbacks in the movie. One Eyed Willy and Thanos.
if I recall correctly Domino actually sucks the luck from all around her. Which makes her super lucky.
So playing with an immortal (in the comics Thanos made DP immortal so DP can’t be “witth” Death. They both had a crush on Death) works out well.
Also explains why all of X-Force died on their way down.
From memory, her 'luck' is more Probability Manipulation; where she can subconsciously alter probabilities to always give herself the best outcome in any situation that has variables. Unfortunately improving her odds always worsens the odds of everyone else.
18:15 Love this Matt Damon and Alan Tudyk cameo.
BTW, that's not a cover, it's A-Ha doing an unplugged version of their own song. It really drives home how sad of a song it is.
There is a cover in the series The Magicians that is pretty good and also very sad.
The best homage to "Take on Me" - Family Guy's 49 second masterpiece... th-cam.com/video/mWErfaJjfE4/w-d-xo.html
The Ska Punk version of Take On Me by Reel Big Fish featured in Baseketball is also amazing.
Great fun, Shanelle!
Juggernaut has always been associated with the X-Men because he's Charles Xavier's step-brother, but he started out as a Doctor Strange villain. He's not a mutant. His powers come from magic. He's supposed to be literally unstoppable and immovable. It's the armor.
Its the Gem of Cyttorak that gives him super powers to be more specific.
On the first one, in the bar, where TJ Miller first saw Deadpool's face, they spent a lot of time, just adlibbing one-liners. There were a few they dropped, then said "Nope ...nope... not going there".
Ty. Great read. You are both a gentleman and a scholar.
The other guy talking to Matt Damon is Alan Tudyk.
“She’s Tom Cruise in every mission impossible movie” caught me off guard and got that weird neck thing I laughed so hard
The guy who plays Shatterstar (the red haired alien who gets taken out by the helicopter) is Lewis Tan, he's an amazing martial artist and he has the worst luck in whatever he's cast in imo so whenever I see him I always get so excited lmao.
Well, at least he got Mortal Kombat
@@flybriur True, but even then I feel like it just wasn’t well received. Amazing fight choreo though!
This one I saw here on my computer. I had heard a lot of good things when it came out. Then I saw a lot of both Deadpool AND this one from several reactors many months ago, so I finally decided to check the movies out from start to finish. This one *definitely* ups the ante on the emotional side, for sure. And the humor did not disappoint, they kept that at the same level as before. I'm so glad I finally got around to watching them, and you!
Also: 1) Love the nails, hadn't seen that lime green color before. Looks good on you. 2) Did Ashleigh message you? I've been reminding her all month that today's your cake day, and she said earlier today on Twitch she sent you a message. Oh, and on that note congrats on turning...26 years old! 😁
'his mom is named Martha, too.' Regretting only associating Martha with the Beatles' song, for the longest time. Like I lived my teens under a rock.
That's the best Martha association there is! Certainly better than the one referenced in this movie. 😀
STILL waiting for somebody to notice that the dial on Cable's gun goes to 11...
That's one more, innit?
The thanos joke was the best
20:08 --- Gotta check out Josh's dad's movies.. James Brolin .. Really iconic performances....
Eddie Marsan is a superb actor, see World's End, Tyrannosaur, The Best of Men and Happy Go Lucky ,amongst others 😊😊😊😊😊
21:18 Winter soldier arm= reference to movie Captain America: Winter Solder, Bucky (Steven’s friend)
If she hasn't seen it yet, maybe don't spoil who it is?
@@johnmcclure40 good point didn’t think of that
In the Comics Juggernaut is not a mutant and the supression collar wouldn't work. N2m his head covering is to protect from psionic attacks and no prison would let him keep it.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand we're back to not being notified of anything by TH-cam. Nothing good ever lasts. Oh well, at least I'm here now. Also: HaPpY BiRtHdAy Shanelle!!! 🥳
I knew a lot of the references would go over your head in this one. Just the nature of the beast when you have a movie like this.
"His Are you my mother complex" Could quite well be from a season one episode of Doctor Who. Ther is a boy with a gas mask stuck on his face during the London Blitz of WWII. The little boy asks everyone, "Are you My Mummy". Right before he infects them
It's a children's book.
'Are you my mother complex' is based on the way many animals bond with other species at birth/infancy.
The biggest line that killed opening nite with my audience was when Ryan Reynolds quiped to Josh Brolin: 'Calm down, Thanos.' Josh played two major antagonists in two Marvel IP films a year apart.
I just want to give a shout out to young Julian Dennison who not only held his own against some serious on-screen talent but managed to steal some scenes. Think the only thing you missed was how Brad Pitt got into the movie. He did the cameo just for fun, a sandwich and a cup of coffee. Now, let's all pray Disney doesn't screw up Deadpool 3.
I saw this film in the theater and nearly passed out laughing when Wade staggered over to Cable with those tiny legs. That scene nearly killed me. In fact I can't recall a movie that made me laugh as much as this film did for such a long time,
7:10 Cable is played by Josh Brolin. His dad is James Brolin and he's married to Barbara Streisand
I love how they keep poking at Josh Brolin, from One-Eyed Willy to Thanos and also refering his Step mom Streisand so many times.
And from the first movie, when he shouts at intake to not make the superset green or CGI, that's also a shot at Green Lantern.
And the end credits scene, where Wade says he's cleaning up the timeline, without spoiling it, let's just say the studio tried to kill Deadpool. Really, watch "X-Men Origins:Wolverine" and see how they tried to "kill" Deadpool. The funny thing too, is that the studio actually got Ryan Reynolds to play Wade Wilson.
OMG you're just like the actress who plays Waverly Earp in Wynonna Earp Series, before she cuts her hair. JUST GORGEOUS
19:05 - Hey, at least this time you clocked him! You're getting better and better at recognizing celebs. 😁
Back in the mid-80's, there was a table top RPG set in the James Bond World. If you rolled really well on a skill check, you could earn a "Hero Point." If you needed to be lucky later on, you could spend a point or two to survive the unsurvivable. It was implied by the game rules that the movies relied heavily on this mechanic.
Your question at 18:33 - "Sorting hat" I'm pretty sure is a reference to the Harry Potter movies (which had a sorting hat in the first one to figure out which house new arrivals should join).
Great reaction - it's fun watching how much fun you had watching this and DP 1. 👍
Yes Shanelle, I got choked up by the emotion too. And yes, I only learned today that RR played Jugg and Matty D was the one guy of two when Cable arrives. Wasn't the other guy Alan Tudyk? Looked like him to me. I did not recognize Brad when I saw the film.
I was queuing outside Comic Con in 2016, I think the first Deadpool came out in February and this was March or April. A lot of Deadpool cosplayers that year. one of them was outside going up and down the queue generally being cool, high fiving people and stuff. I called "I love you in the movie!" and he gave me wo finger guns and called back "I love YOU!" and that was rad. Deadpool rules ^_^
These movies hit the mark. As you pointed out part is the process but the other is just giving the audience what they know the audience wants and executing it perfectly.
The thing with cables arm is it's a techno organic virus that's slowly consuming him Josh brolin plays cable fantastically the sheer menace he exudes is brilliant.
The movie also referenced the movie Goonies for example, when Deadpool's says to a cable about the crack with one eye. Willie, that was a reference too. The pirate from Goonies and when Deadpool was healing from being ripped in half. He was wearing their shirt homage to Jeffrey Bertan Cohen the chubby kid from The Goonies. And when Deadpool said zip it Thanos to cable. A reference to the avengers where Josh, brolin played Thanos in The avengers movies
Deadpool 3 is coming out this year, so now would be a good opportunity to watch the rest of the X-Men films, especially Logan.
The timing for this is impeccable. I'm actually going to see the national tour of Annie on the 23rd.
Not going to lie - the old Deadpool PC game was one of my guilty pleasures back in the day. The voice actor they got for Deadpool nailed it. Didn't hurt that Psylocke, Rogue and OG Domino were featured in the game in all their glory as well. Ahem.
Ahem indeed...
AWESOME!!!! Been waiting for you to get to this... LOVE this film! I have seen it dozens of times and still catch something new every time I see it.
You and me both!
35:07 - *_Did you say: “He’s John Queue Sacking it!”??_* 🤣🤣🤣
John Cusack-ing it, the scene in DP2 is a reference to John Cusack's character doing the same thing (using the same song) in the movie Say Anything
@@TehFrenchy29 😳 *_... Uh-Hrrmm... It was a joke...!_* 🤦🏻♂️
After the Deadpool 1 reaction this was the reaction I had been most anticipating; and it did not disappoint. This is my favorite of the Deadpool movies, and I can’t wait for the third movie!
Also cant wait!! these are so great!!
@@ShanelleRiccio the Deadpool films have a chance to be up there with some of the all time great franchises/trilogies. It just goes to show what happens when you put people in charge of something who care about the product they are working on. Like James Gunn and the Gardens of the Galaxy trilogy.
I'd watch a movie with Shanelle before anyone else. I love these! Please keep them coming as long as you can!
I recommend, 'Wayne.' It was a TH-cam Original that was criminally cancelled after one season. It was, 'brought to you by the people that made deadpool.'
And it shows.
I love your reactions to action comedies and I would like to suggest that you react to Bullet Train. The Streisand movie was Yentl. I missed the Matt Damon cameo the first time, too. I was also surprised to find that the guy Matt was talking to was played by Alan Tudyk.
The sheer joy you got out of watching this movie completely made my day
13:31 I loved the timing of calling them out for not getting other X-Men.
3:49 - As a native spanish speaker I can vouch for the accuracy of that translation. 🤭
One eyed Willie was a reference from the Goonies, Josh’s first film. It’s great btw
Great reaction like always, you should have seen Logan before this movie to get that Logan reference and so many others. Tucker and Dale vs Evil cameo was Matt Damon and Alan Tudyk, Matt Damon, who was completely unrecognizable with a large beard. In the film's credits, Damon was also credited as "Dickie Greenleaf," which is a reference to The Talented Mr. Ripley. Keep up the good work.
Before this movie came out, one of the advertising points was that Brad Pitt is in the movie.
Oh my - I never saw the "Spinal Tap" reference before! :D
10:57 - Me too. And how they recycled the joke from the last one in such an ingenious way!
I also didn't catch Matt Damon when I watched it the first time. Also, the guy with him is Alan Tudyk from Firefly and Tucker & Dale.
Brad Pitt agreed to do the cameo for the cost of one cup of coffee.
