Countdown to Three - Deadpool, Ep. 2 - Big CGI fight comin' up!

Monday Jul 29, 2024

From the beginning of Deadpool 2, Wade Wilson lets us know this won't be the same as the first film, which was a love story. Deadpool 2 is a family film - full of ridiculous gobs of violence, a mountain of profanity. Wait...so it IS kinda the same as the first film - full of things Paul, Sean, and Justin LOVE! Actually, the building of X-Force, the arrival of Cable and Juggernaut, and much more makes this sequel even crazier. And if you want to prep for the absolute insanity that is Deadpool and Wolverine, listening to this show is good prep. Only best buddies execute pedophiles together.
