You know, an R-rated Deadpool film is well and good, but I kind of want to see Wade show up in one of the regular X-Men films, too.
I want to see him hastily catch himself every time he’s about to say “fuck”, because he knows that the film – being rated PG-13 – is only allowed one F-bomb, and he wants to make it count.
I want to see him throw the ugliest tantrum when, after he spends the whole movie saving up that one allotted “fuck” for the perfect moment, somebody else uses it up before he has a chance.
And that someone is Wolverine.
I so love that this is completely possible in upcoming films
Wade: Everyone knowns PG-13 mean you only get one f-bomb. Gotta use it wisely.
Wolverine: What the fuck are you talking about?

I haven’t seen Deadpool yet, but from what I’m guessing and what I’ve heard, it’s got its problems.
That doesn’t mean I’m saying it’s an awful movie and to boycott it. In fact, I myself am very much looking forward to see it.
But just because Deadpool is a fan-favourite, that doesn’t mean that the issues that some fans have with it are any less valid. Problematic media is not necessarily BAD media, but it’s worth critiquing for the purpose of improvement.
We’re all comic book and movie lovers here, so let’s just be considerate of one another, yeah?
hey I just saw deadpool and theres an upsetting amount of rape jokes in it. stay safe
apparently there’s also a transmisogynist joke in there
I’m not surprised
BECAUSE OF COURSE THERE IS
The worst part about this besides that fact that they did this, is those are the two kinds of jokes the deadpool comics purposefully never had because they knew where to draw the line.
ok i just got out of deadpool and i didn’t see any transmisogyny at all? like, whatsoever. i was trying to find where there were supposedly “an upsetting amount of rape jokes” and i didn’t catch a single one my dude. like, maybe let’s not just immediately spread misinformation with literally zero evidence whatsoever.
you can’t just toss around accusations like that.I just got out of it myself, there is ZERO rape jokes and not a single transmisogynist joke at all. If anything the movie stayed faithful to the comics. It was a great movie. Go see it.
Oh thank god
We all know Deadpool would never make such jokes. Go watch it, Deadpool is awesome. Totally worth thousands of pancakes
There’s a lot of dick jokes, sex jokes, masturbation jokes, and everything in between. But there aren’t any rape jokes.
why would someone lie about this like why would you make a bunch of rape survivors and trans ppl think they’re Fav got jacked up by some bullshit if it didn’t like what’s the point of that…
Exaxtly!!!! Deadpool is one of my favorite Marvel characters. I was so hoping someone who actually watched the movie would come in and tell me that wasn’t true. Deadpool is the shit fuck that.
phew I really wanted to see it 😅
Having seen it yesterday, here’s what I remember:
Could-possibly-be-taken-as-rape-joke #1: Wade and Vanessa joke to each other about their terrible childhoods. Both throw in a reference to being molested. I’ve never read the comics, so I have no idea if that’s something that did happen in either of their pasts and they joke about it because that’s what their characters are like or if it’s just an Edgy Joke on the part of the writers.
Could-possibly-be-taken-as-rape-joke #2: Deadpool says of Negasonic “I pity the dude who pressures her into prom sex.” May not quite be a rape joke but it’s rather close to the line?
There was mostly definitely a transmisogynist joke, though. It’s when Deadpool meets Angel Dust, he says something like “you’re too much dude for me!” and something else that I can’t remember. So the OPs really weren’t lying.
Live-Action Deadpool Will Not Have Schizophrenia
THIS IS SO!! FUCKING!!! FRUSTRATING HOLY SHIIIIIT!!!
So, not only are they simply erasing a key personality aspect of such an iconic character, they are specifying they they are simply erasing a key aspect of such an iconic character.They felt the need to actively say “No, no this character wont have Schizophrenia anymore.” Why did they have to do that?? Rub salt in the wound?
When will people realize that Schizophrenia is a real goddamn mental illness, and that erasing it from media will not erase it from reality. Deadpool has always had Schizophrenia, its a known fact, why did they feel the need to backtrack and declare that their Deadpool isnt “insane” like that?
Ill fucking tell you why.
Because the stigma against mental illness is still fucking huge. Its great that society is starting to broaden their acceptance of illnesses such as Depression and Bipolar Disorder, but illnesses such as Schizophrenia are still being veiwed as “too crazy.” People need to fucking learn and accept that having and living with Schizophrenia does not make you “insane” or “crazy,” not in the ways that stereotypes dictate. Its a treatable disease, and hundreds of thousands of people live with it every day, and hundreds of thousands of people are just trying to go about their lives.
But no, these absolutely fuckwads had to take away one of the most iconic characters who has Schizophrenia.
The only possible silver lining I can scrap from the bottom of the barrel is at least now they wont be able to fuck up their representation.
Im so fucking mad.
these people ACTIVELY SAID “Oh, hes going to be crazy, but not THAT crazy, oh haha nooo” like what the actual FUCK
Go fuck yourselves
