'Deadpool 2' directed by David Leitch

Image result for deadpool 2Deadpool 2 is a piece of garbage made for idiots. I suppose it can be justified as a funny summer comic book action movie, and both Ryan Reynolds and this movie try so hard to come off as clever, but come on. If you really think this is funny, or clever you must be in a desperately stupid place in your life and I am a bit afraid for you. Its trying to come off as self aware but if it really were self aware it wouldn't exist.

I actually read comics for a while as a teen, Cable being introduced as a character really felt like the beginning of the end of my interest in superhero comic books, and cable's intro in the Fox X-men movies feels very much the same. I stopped reading X-men shortly after they introduced Bishop, which is basically the same character as Cable. James Brolin is good in the role, but the whole movie is dumb as shit. Domino is a fun character played by Zazie Beats, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and Colossus are really fun to see on screen, I wish they spent the money on stories about any of them. They got me into the theater based on Colossus and my inbuilt interest in X-men. I am starting to resent my own fandom. Actually I have been done for a long long while.There are literally better x-men stories told on fox kids every Saturday around 10am for the last who knows how long.

I never liked Deadpool as a character. I mean you draw spider-man, but color him in slightly differently give him swords and make him say awful crass shit. I hate it. This movie tries to reference Rob Leifeld the creator of Deadpool and Cable, but he really is a crap artist of special significance for ruining comics for me. Ryan Reynolds is just a shitty actor hamming it up. Nice abs.

The movie does try really really hard, and the reality is that this type of shiz is just not for me anymore. Its for stupid people, the most general of audiences, adults who are not mentally competent.  Maybe some new dad out there who doesn't get to watch anything but children's films might be entertained because of the "dirty funny movie' but I mean seriously its impossibly unfunny dogshit. Maybe wait for it to come on TV, cause there is enough going on to force your eyeballs to pay attention, It is a ride, its just not a ride I would recommend.

'Avengers: Endgame' directed by Joe Russo and Anthony Russo

The experience of seeing this movie is like Church. This is the big sequel to last summer's box office destroyer Infinity War and the conclusion of a 22 movie series. It delivers the power fantasy eucharist. And that's great but it leaves me feeling like I am in a pickle because the movie as a product is exactly what I wanted when I was a 13-year-old comic book kid, so they have me hooked. I don't need it anymore I am so much less interested in this type of hype machine movie. It really makes me realize that I don't really need this church I don't feel the excitement and I feel like I have seen it again and again and it makes me miss smarter shit, fucked up politically incorrect indie film. So it's appropriate that this movie feels like a big ending because it's also an ending for me I don't think I am going to see this type of movie in cinemas anymore.  This is the end of hype for me. I've made a decision and I am killing it dead. I'm old now an...

'Creed II' directed by Steven Caple Jr.

I'm a sucker for Rocky movies. I have seen them all multiple times. The first Creed really captured  the heart and spirit of the original Rocky, and Creed II moves things more toward the perfected formulaic shlock of the Rocky sequels, and I loved every minute of it. Michael B Jordan as Adonis Creed. What a physique on this guy. Adonis is the right name for this character. Shredded, The guys personal trainer need to win an award. Roy Jones Jr would still win in the ring but I'm wondering if Sly didn't slip him some HGH to get ready for that epic training montage. If you saw the trailer you know the story. Ivan Drago's son Victor comes looking for blood after Rocky Disgraced the Drago Family all those years ago. All the old favorite villains are back and badder than ever. Its a shame they couldn't get Hulk Hogan and Mr T. (Side note: I would love a reality TV show that was just Mr T hanging out with Mike Tyson.) Its totally manipulative, but these Rocky movi...

'The Predator' directed by Shane Black

This movie is really bad. I really wasn't asking much and it disappointed. Shane Black directed Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and that was a great movie. He should be able to handle this material. He wrote and acted in the original Predator. They brought him on to direct and what could be more in Shane Black's wheelhouse. It should have been a cinch. They got a fun enough cast, Keegan Michael Key, Olivia Munn and Thomas Jane are in it. I like all those people. This movie should have been way better. It sucked so badly. It underestimates the intelligence of the prepubescent audience its going for. Literally a 10 year old would write much better dialog. The characters are shit, the plot is shit, the effects are sub par/shit. It comes across as forced, its preposterously lame. It ridicules the mentally ill. Its so not clever. Its a bore. Predator 1 and 2 are both amazing movies. That Adrien Brody movie was dope. This is your reboot? Its a mess. Its an alien abortion. just avoi...
