The entertainment value here alone is on par with the masterpiece of a movie.
Yesterday we were collectively shellshocked with the news that Josh Brolin would be taking on the role as Cable in the Deadpool Movie sequel. Largely because this means Brolin's dipping his hands in two different superhero universes. He was already playing Thanos for MCU, and now he's Cable? Being genuinely confused has never felt so right. Leave it to Ryan Reynolds to simultaneously poke fun at the announcement while offering up a comedic welcoming to Brolin.
Can't say I saw this casting coming. Cable is Thanos....Thanos is Cable? What even is life anymore? You'd almost think that Brolin would've been required to sign some sort of contract with Marvel when he was cast as super-villain badass Thanoss, that'd prevent him from ever playing a part in a separate superhero universe.... But NAH. And the reactions just about reflect where our heads are at right now: not sure if wildly stoked, or helplessly confused.
There's nothing like asking a big question as you stare up at the stars. Truth is, the only thing better than that is when you can ask a big question with an even bigger star.
If you agree, then has Stephen Colbert have a segment for you. It's called "Big Questions with Even Bigger Stars."
On this installment, Stephen sits down with Deadpool himself and discusses Green Lantern, Avatar, and peeing in a public urinal.
Every nerd wants to argue who would win a fight, Deadpool or Wolverine, but no one asks who is the better troll.
So now, because nobody asked for it, but we definitely wanted it anyway, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are battling it out on social media. Did we say that it's delightful? Yeah, it's delightful.
Can we just finish this in Deadpool 2?
Can we just give the bad-mouthed merc the big shiny golden trophy he so damn well deserves, and at the very least for his string of stellar performances amidst some pleasantly raunchy marketing campaigns. Speaking of which, let's take a quick trip down memory lane...
