Deadpool 2 Review

Deadpool 2 (2018)

Well what in the ass! This movie was amazing!

Deadpool 2 had a lot of speculation about how they were going to up the ante from the their first incredibly popular outing. With a new increased budget and all the room to play with, I can only imagine the amount of different ideas that were brought up about our hero and the only definite thing we knew about the sequel, the inclusion of Cable.

The movie centers around our hero trying to protect a young mutant who goes by the name of Firefist from many different factors, one of which includes Cable, a time traveller who is on a mission to eliminate the mutant and anyone who stands in his way. This leads to hilarious antics, incredible action and the birth of a brand new mutant team, X Force.

Josh Brolin in Deadpool 2 (2018)

This movie, in my opinion, is a good continuation of the first movie. it still has the same humour that you would expect from Ryan Reynolds as he dawns the red suit, but we are also treated to some incredible action, as well as welcome returns from great characters like Dopinder, Blind Al and Weasel, as well as Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Colossus. We also get a host of amazing new characters, stand outs for me have to include Josh Brolin’s Cable who even though was absolutely amazing and suited the role beautifully, I can’t help but feel like his performance is what we would have gotten for Thanos if Disney EVER did a R Rating. Domino is absolutely brilliant, incredibly charming and funny. The chemistry she has with the cast is brilliant and a welcome addition to the series.

This movie has so much heart behind it, without spoiling it, it takes a good look at the character of Deadpool and what drives him and by the end of the movie, you get a good well rounded character that has tried his best to fulfill his arch in the movie. I would definitely say get your asses down to the cinemas this instant and see this movie, especially if you like great action and a nice surprise character, as well as a gaggle of jokes!

Now you can’t talk Deadpool on a cosplay board without referring to “douchepools” that unfortunately do frequent the cosplay scene, even to this day. I am proud to say that I am most definitely a Deadpool cosplayer but I do not look to upset my fellow cosplayers. I think a lot of douchepools have started drift away from the scene, but it’s a shame that things have happened in the past. The use of a character portray to excuse rude and disgusting behaviour is sad and pathetic, in my opinion. We have a community that can be so incredible to behold and a togetherness that you don’t get in other hobbies. So I like to hope that the deadpools that frequent the upcoming cons *cough* London MCM *cough* keep their minds about them and realize that if you want to be a deadpool cosplayer, be funny, but be respectful!

AND FOR GOD’S SAKE, WEAR A GOD DAYUM CUP! NO ONE WANTS TO SEE YOUR X GENE DUDE!!!!!!

You know when I think about it……..Josh Brolin is like rolling in all the money right now!

Other Film Reviews
11 years in the making, over 20 movies and it finally comes down to this. We’re in the endgame now. And boy….was it a hell of an endgame. Now obviously I will try to make this a spoiler free review, but this is a hell of a movie to try and unpack without going too specific so I promise I will do my best. Now the best way to summarise this movie is that everyone that’s left after the snap happens is trying to find their way through this new world that has been created by Thanos, that is until someone comes up with an idea that could change everything…….yeah that’s vague enough not spoil anything Everything about this movie was just perfect. The pacing, the music, I know I already mentioned the performances but the beats each character hits, hits home so amazingly! Ok. This movie. IS AMAZING!!!! Before I even talk about this movie, I’m gonna tell you that you NEED to do a marathon before getting to this movie. There are so many hints and nods to the past movies. Along with that, this movie is literally like a fan service to us, the ones who have stuck to this movie franchise over the past decade and a bit. The performances from everyone involved were at top level. There are minor plot holes, but honestly, this movie delivers so much to the fans that you genuinely don’t care, and I can tell you now, the last hour of this movie is the best cinematic piece in comic movie history. Hands. Down. And when it comes to cosplay, there is only thing i can say, and that is a huge thank you and congratulations. All weekend i’ve seen cosplayers doing what they love for the movie franchise they love and it has been to raise so much money for charities and it just shows how much cosplayers love to give back, not just to the community but to people in need as well. Bottom line. You need to stop reading this and go watch this movie! Like this:Like Loading... [...] Read more...
This remake centres around Harbour’s Hellboy working with his father Ian McShane and facing off against Milla Jovovich’s Numie who is an eternal living blood queen who wants demons and monsters to take over the world. Hellboy must beat her with the help of Sasha Lane’s Alice and Daniel Dae Kim’s Major Ben Daimio. A lot of people were a tad sceptical when a Hellboy remake/reboot was announced, however, the pictures of David Habour surfaced of him in the full Hellboy make up which raised all the excitement for the project! And so, the movie hit theatres with a lot of expectation! This movie took full advantage of the 18 rating, ramping up the gore that you would find in the comics. Now comparing this movie to the first Hellboy movie back in 2004, because of course it was gonna be compared, where the 2004 version opted for more storytelling and world advancement, this movie decided to shy away from more storytelling and went for adding more action. Most people do enjoy this but I personally didn’t like this. The movie was hindered by lack of story and some CGI that looked incredibly bad. This CGI looked better placed back in 1998 it was that bad. Now don’t get me wrong, David Harbour’s performance was brilliant, I was a tad unsure with regards to some of the prosthetics but in the overall look, they were amazing in the movie, its just a shame that some of the other effects seemed unfinished and the gore itself became a bit too much at some times. The movie was a fun experience to go see, I would suggest going for it but don’t expect an amazing movie. Now the prosthetics are amazing for Harbour’s Hellboy and I think some of the best body paints to use for cosplays would be a good thing to speak about. One of the best paints I’ve used is mehron, the amount of variety you can get is amazing and it seems to go on quite well. There are also many other products you can grab from other places, as long as you can grab some body paint setter that will help keep the paint on for longer. There are many cosplayers who have done some amazing Hellboy cosplays that have used some excellent paint! I can’t wait to see some more amazing cosplays using some stellar paintwork!

how goes it fellow nerds, geeks and the like! Well you’ll be hearing alot from me this month, with quite a few films coming out, and a final season that I hope to review at the end. So let’s start with another installment from DC, after their very big success with Aquaman, Shazam! Shazam revolves around 13 year old, or basically 14 year old Billy Batson, who is essentially recruited by an old wizard and passes on his powers to him to protect the world against the 7 deadly sins and to carry on the legacy of wizards that came before him. Unfortunately, Billy runs into his first super villian in Dr. Sivana and has to take him down with his new found powers. I have got to say, this movie was really good, I feel like the DC movie universe has turned a new corner and has a new freedom with their movie making. Asher Angel who plays Billy Batson as his younger self had a great chemistry with the other young members of the cast, especially Jack Dylan Grazer who plays Freddie Freeman, who helps Billy as he takes on this transformation. Zachary Levi, i’ll be honest, I could never see as a super hero, and yet he handled it brilliantly! Showing the power that he possesses, while using his funny side to portray 14 year old stuck in a man’s body who has superpowers. Mark Strong who plays Dr. Sivana is very compelling as a supervillian. All in all, this movie was incredibly fun and lighthearted, while still maintaining a sense of danger and dread. The costumes from this movie are really awesome as well. obviously due to this movie being in production for a while, there have been many set photos and its been amazing seeing people’s take on how to do the lightning on Shazam’s chest! From using yellow foam, to people using the same kind of lighting mechanism that can be used. What is also amazing to see is using red puff painting to add the small design and details to the suit. Hopefully when a sequel comes, and oh yes, there most definitely has to be a sequel to this movie because it was great, hopefully we can see the long awaited debut of Black Adam, which can add to the cosplay list for alot of people! I genuinely suggest you go and see this movie, DC have finally hit their stride with their movies and hopefully they will continue get better with the freedom the directors have.
