Well thank you.
However, in either the comic, or in the movie, I haven’t seen a single thing that made me go, “Ew, whoa, that’s gay.”
A lot of it is subtle. I had a vague recollection of several "gay" things occurring in the pizza guy scene, so I went and looked at it on you tube.
When DeadPool comes out of the bathroom and notices the Pizza, he says "Sweeeet and Saaaalty." Later in the scene he says: "Give a look in her general direction again, and you will learn in the worst of ways that I have some hard spots too." Then he says: "That came out wrong.... or did it?" He then kisses the Pizza guy on the cheek.
Just looked at youtube and found someone else noticed some of the gay stuff I and my wife noticed when we saw it. Watch these excerpts and see if you agree.
Also I recall DeadPool hiding the engagement ring in his bum, and Baccarin referencing the use of "strapons".
If DP ends up dumping Morena Baccarin (how?) and going for some other gay superhero, then, well, the comic book world gets a little bit dimmer.
My thinking is that they did this to de-gayify him for the audiences which they know would vomit at scenes of male on male activity. According to an interview with the creator of DeadPool and Ryan Reynolds, they are wanting him to have a boyfriend in a future episode.
I think they will launch that idea whenever they think they've got sufficient popularity with his character. Had they launched it out of the gate, DeadPool would have cratered.
I think it worked. He seems pretty enthusiastic about Vanessa, and vice versa.
I still truck with my buddies from HS, and we’re all (except one) avowed heteros. The one who isn’t is all the way in the closet, and a hard-core Christian.
For us, at golf, it’s nothing but gay jokes, or referring to ourselves or others as gay.
Example: “No room at the bar? Turn the stool over - seating for four!”
Or masturbation.
We’re 8 year-olds. Then the weekend is over and we return to being Scoutmasters, Captains of Industry, Catholic Priests (just kidding).
It’s fun, and we don’t mean it. In fact, ‘Go f*** yourself’ is short hand for ‘I love you, and can’t imagine my life without you in it.’
I’d like to think everyone is as lucky as I am and has a group of guys who you can just be yourself around, but I know that isn’t so.
All that to say, if DP is gay, Morena Baccarin is the very best ketchup you could put on that piece of liver.
She reminds me of Gillian Anderson - she’s hotter right now than she was when she appeared in the X-files Pilot. She’s hotter than David Duchovny, who is showing his age in ways Gillian Anderson is not.
Were you ever around for Belly Girl? Oh man. And she was conservative, and smart, and blue-hot.
I always wondered whether somebody on this forum dated or married her. Dang.
