Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)


Finally!!!!!! Waited 6 years for this!!!!!



Previously with the X-Men franchise...

-Dark Phoenix (the last new X-Men movie I saw in a theater)
-The New Mutants (the last new X-Men movie I saw period)

Previously with Deadpool...


Previously with inter-studio crossovers...


The buildup to this one...



Non-spoiler review-

Loved the everloving shit out of it!!! 😁

So!! How does it stack up to the other Deadpools?
I like it best, but you need the other two.
You need 1-2 for the character set up.
It's for franchise fans; it doesn't stand up all alone. IMHO.
But! If you love the other 2 (and why wouldn't you?) this'll easily be your trilogy fave.

How does it stack up as a crossover movie?
Best one! Even better than "No Way Home".
And you know how much I fucking love NWH!
It slaughters "Multiverse" and "Flash".
Knew it would.

As a goodbye love letter to Fox?
Oh, holy fucking shit, YES!!
Surpassed my expectations!
Far surpassed my expectations!!
The mid-credits will get you misty-eyed.
Stay for everything.
