Review of Deadpool 2 (2018) by Kevin M. W — 12 Aug 2018
Or Ryan Reynolds and Josh Brolin outline the entertainment/media zeitgeist of the times for us lest we were clueless: to wit, only the crew and the orchestra are not seen in this uber-meta take on the whole superhero movie thing happening lately.
Breaking the fourth wall? Check. Referencing the star outside of the film? Check. Referencing other films in the Marvel Universe? Check. Even Thanos??? Even Thanos. Could the internet fans and comic convention fans input be influencing what makes it to the screen anymore? You betcha, and this work is the proof and the tip of the iceberg, the pendulum swinging entirely away from the ol' you'll take what we serve you and you'll like it studio think.
This is very nearly a fan made/studio film. And what a ride it is!
