UK Daily Mail ^ | February 22, 2016 | Rachel McGrath

It's violent and it's laden with expletives but movie-going audiences around the globe love it. Deadpool, starring Ryan Reynolds as the physically and mentally scarred Marvel Comics antihero, demolished the opposition for a second weekend running in North America. And worldwide, the film looks certain to eclipse The Matrix Reloaded and grab the title of highest-grossing R-rated movie in history, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

I agree that Sinestro was a more natural villain.

I thought the first movie should have been about Hal Jordan learning about responsibility of being part of the GL Corps. Maybe having to save a village from a disaster he caused by playing with the ring.

Cool! This just might be the right time to eBay those old Deadpool comics.

Thanks for referencing the classics.

Isn’t that the one with a young Liam Neeson as a dick movie director and a very young Jim Carrey as a heroin-addicted rock star?

The post credits scene is a direct takeoff of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.

“Just saw it Saturday. It is VERY HEAVY on the homosexual normalization propaganda.”

Huh? All I heard were several irreverent cracks making fun of people by calling them names.

Ajax: “Ok, Fists then.”
Wade Wilson/Deadpool: “Just like last Saturday night for you.”

If you love graphic and comical violence and sex, this is the feel-good movie of the year! I left the theater with a huge smirk on my face. I love how Reynolds embraced the Deadpool costume instead of constantly removing it so his face can be seen like so many other superhero movies (Spidey, Cap, Ironman all have a strange need to show their faces to everyone.)

I assume you are aware that this is a reference to a form of "gay" sex known as "fisting"?

Not sure if you are supporting my assertion or trying to deny it.

Um yeah, that’s the joke. So Deadpool is making fun of a guy by implying he is gay, just like normal guys do to each other all the time.

In today’s world it is generally frowned upon by the Gaystapo to call someone gay as a slur but there it is; Deadpool did it repeatedly in this movie.

You didn't notice all the overt homosexual references and mannerisms?

Looking at the script and other sources I can point out a few examples.

DOPINDER
"And how does Ms. O'Donnell taste, Mr. Pool?" Deadpool tosses in the final corn nut of the bag. CRUNCH.
DEADPOOL
"Like your nuts in my mouth."

.

....

The man SCREAMS. Deadpool STUFFS the lighter INTO the man's mouth and CLAMPS his hand over it.


DEADPOOL
[Shoving car's cigarette lighter into goon's mouth] "I've never said this to anyone before, but don't swallow!"

.

...

Deadpool puts his mouth to his pistol barrel, INHALES ...
...and then EXHALES smoke through the pores of his mask.

DEADPOOL
I'm touching myself tonight.

.

...

DEADPOOL (V.O.)
I'll bet he works out. So what if I SID pulling the double shift at the ab-factory? What if I do want my man menu to feature the shredded beef? Call it insecurity. But I haven't touched a carb since ...

.

.

Deadpool:
[to the audience] I know right? You're probably thinking "Whose balls did I have to fondle to get my very own movie"? I can't tell you his name, but it rhymes with 'pullverine.' And lemme tell you, he's got a nice pair of smooth criminals down unda'.

.

.

Deadpool: [to Colossus] You big, chrome cock-gobbler!

.

.

Deadpool:
[to The Recruiter] Hey Jared! I'll take a footlong, fully loaded!

.

.

Vanessa Carlysle: "Wade, there's something I've been meaning to ask you. Only because you haven't gotten around to asking me. Will you, um, stick it up my a"

[Wade holds up a giant ring]

Wade Wilson: "Marry me?"

Vanessa Carlysle: "Uh, jinx?"

Wade Wilson: "Huh."

Vanessa Carlysle: "Where were you hiding that?"

Wade Wilson: "Nowhere."
[Wade and is shown to be butt-naked]

Beyond that, I remember Deadpool's comment about "liking it hot and salty" (about the Pizza) and how he would give the Pizza boy his "Hard Spot". He also went into the bar and asked the male bartender for a "blow job".

There is a scene where he is about to get a "strapon" used on him by his girlfriend. There is also a reference to "fisting" regarding Ajax.

And numerous lisps, inflections, and generally pansy acting and sounding behavior.

And you didn't notice any of it?

Who do you hang out with? When did references to a man sticking his fist up another man's rectum become "normal"?

On second thought, never mind. This is exactly what I mean regarding "the normalization of homosexuality."

In today's world it is generally frowned upon by the Gaystapo to call someone gay as a slur but there it is; Deadpool did it repeatedly in this movie.

Black people call each other "N*gga" all the time. Homosexuals routinely call each other "faggot", "fairy", "queen" and a lot more vulgar terms. It's not regarded as a slur in their community.

Also, look at a few references I looked up and posted above and tell me this isn't explicitly gay stuff.

Ok lets go over these one by one

a) Comparing the taste of Deadpool’s nethers to Rosie O’Donnel’s is hardly a ringing endorsement of either

b) A reference to swallowing has nothing to do with homosexuality, merely sexual

c) Neither is mastrubation a homosexual act.

d) Not sure about this reference as I don’t remember it in the movie; sounds like Deadpool has low self esteem about his body more than anything else

e) This is another well used turn-of-phrase (ie: “whose ____ do I have to suck to get a drink around here?!”)

f) Cockgobbler - gay slur insult

g) In case you didn’t know, Vanessa is a woman, so nothing homosexual going on there. Sodomy, yes, homosexuality, no.

And yes, Deadpool asserts his dominance over other men by implying he is going to do something sexual to them. And yes, Deadpool acts faux gay for laughs (much like Eddie Murphy did in his stand up 30 years ago.)

I hardly see this as advocacy for homosexuality; in fact I imagine gay groups are generally not happy with all the jokes at their expense.

a

A man's nuts.

b

A man's mouth.

c

He, a man, simulating fellatio on a male phallic symbol.

d

"Man Menu" implies there is a selection of men.

e

Heterosexual men do not fondle men.

f

Heterosexual men do not "gobble cocks" or refer to males doing such.

f

You skipped over "Hey Jared! I'll take a footlong, fully loaded!"

g

Heterosexual men do not engage in strapon anal sex. (simulated homosexuality)

And yes, Deadpool asserts his dominance over other men by implying he is going to do something sexual to them. And yes, Deadpool acts faux gay for laughs (much like Eddie Murphy did in his stand up 30 years ago.)

The writer says Deadpool will engage in homosexual sex. You are whistling past the graveyard.

One more I had forgotten. The ending of the movie features a cartoon Deadpool giving a Unicorn a HandJob on it's horn, which then ejaculates a Rainbow.

Seriously dude, this thing is as queer as Liberace.

I've looked at your page. You bemoan the fact that this place is no longer a place where intelligent people gathered to discuss the news and engage in thoughtful debate.

Do you feel like your response is a contribution to thoughtful debate?

Best credits ever.

It’s childish- but the main character is childish because he is damaged so that works.
See it for the action scenes or be disappointed.
