Wow......having seen almost NONE of the other Marvel movies, I walked out of Deadpool vs Wolferine just kind of confused. Not by the plot, that was simple as shit. It was insultingly simple.
The part that confused me was "WHO IS DEMANDING THIS MOVIE???". I don't watch a lot of movies, but the ones I do watch I like to make "worth it". And everybody was going on and on and on about how great this movie was going to be once it came out. And then......
Ok, imagine going to this movie, without ANY concept about who these cameos are, who a LOT of the characters are supposed to even be, and without having seen a single previous deadpool or x-men movie before.
Yeah, movie kind of sucks now, doesn't it?
But......silver lining.....at least I was able to get the joke of a Lemmy post months after the fact.
.......yeah, I still want my $12 back.
Nah it was great, but it was a love letter to people who had watched every previous Deadpool and all the old Marvel movies. It wasn't meant to be an entry into the universe. I can understand why you didn't like it having not seen the previous, but it just wasn't made for you.
