Ryan Reynolds paid ‘Deadpool’ writers to be on set when Fox refused
Man. I really fucking loved Deadpool. And I’m really fucking happy it made so much goddamn money, because Reynolds seems like a good guy, and sometimes it’s nice to see a passion project fucking crush it.
‘Deadpool 2’ eyes Kyle Chandler to play Cable; Domino appearing, too!
I don’t really know Kyle Chandler. I’ve enjoyed him in what I’ve seen, but I’ve stayed away from Friday Night Lights because, if I’m being honest, I find you fans of it quoting “Open Ass, Wide Grin, Can’t Gape” insufferable and its prejudiced me against the show. However, sure, I’m fine with this potential casting.
Watch: Ryan Reynolds celebrates ‘Deadpool’ one-month anniversary with 80s VHS Ad
This is fantastic. Reynolds has dropped a video celebrating the one-month annivesary of Deadpool in the form of a VHS ad. Such commitment to the franchise! Such commitment to profits! Such commitment to Deadpool, despite it making insane dollars and having been release a month ago. I fuck with it.
Rumor: ‘Deadpool’ sequel also featuring X-Force’s Domino
Whatever they want to do with Deadpool 2, I’m onboard. I spent much of Deadpool‘s production and promotion questioning and disliking everything I came across.
Then I saw the movie three times.
So I’m just going to nod my head at this news in affirmation.
Watch: Deadpool explains why he won’t host ‘SNL’, spoofs Kanye’s Rant
Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool aren’t going anywhere, despite the fact (or perhaps due to the fact) that the movie is already released, and making absurd amounts of ducats. The actor-character-actor-metameta has responded to an online petition asking the character-actor-character-metameta to host SNL, spoofing Kanye’s epic rant from last week.
Weekend Open Bar: You Are Not Alone, [We] Are Not Alone
I’m getting real shit at publishing a weekend column at the start of the weekend. Man! Fuck! But yesterday was busy, hopscotching from work, to dinner with a mentor, to an entire bag of Sour Patch Watermelons, to staring at the IdiotBox for three or so hours. I’m here now, though, and I’m hoping I can lure you in as well! This is Weekend Open Bar, the weekly column where we all hang out.
‘Wolverine 3’ is going to be R-Rated, according to Fox
Deadpool has proven to Fox something which I took to be obvious: R-Rated superhero movies can make fucking bank. If the movies are good. With this (obvious) knowledge in hand, the company has decided to make the final Wolverine movie R-Rated. Christ. It’s about time. The fact that they’ve gotten away with not making his movies R-Rated is insane to me. This is a man who is most known for slaying all sorts of dudes, and going into beserker rages. So good. Good we finally get one, just as Jackman bows out of the role.
Monday Morning Commute: Lock and Load for the Cyber-Scum
Welcome to Monday Morning Commute, scum-lords. It’s a fairly nondescript week for me. Nothing really coming up. Maybe seeing a flick with the BetterHalf. Listening to TheMusic. Spending time in VideoGameWorld. Some weeks the world pops, with a litany of excitement awaiting me. Some weeks the world drags, offering up nothing special in the way of respite from the grind.
Weekend Open Bar: The Omniverse Is Grateful
It’s Weekend Open Bar! Let’s kick this off. With alacrity! The weekly column where the reckless degenerates and-or savory, wonderful souls of Space-Ship Omega gather. Holding hands, holding eye contact, we discuss with vim and vigor our Weekend Plans.
