fun Easter eggs
knowing nods and subtle references found
in Deadpool – warning spoilers ahead
number 10 Pryor’s treats as any avid
comic x-men reader will tell you you
can’t get cable without Madeline Pryor
while there obviously wasn’t time to dig
into the convoluted history of how cable
was conceived by Scott Summers aka
Cyclops and Madeline Pryor a clone of
Jean Grey as part of the evil
machinations of mr. sinister the
filmmakers did manage to squeeze in a
fun little nod to cables parentage
during the prison transport seen a black
ice cream truck can briefly be seen and
it bears the words Pryor’s treats it’s a
blink and you’ll miss it acknowledgement
but a nice one nonetheless whoever
planned this stunt number nine the
Duggan and Simone Knotts
Deadpool’s popularity is the result of
the many writers and artists that have
helped shape him over the years
ask any pool head who wrote the
characters defining runs however and the
names duggan and simone are sure to come
up gail simone penned the fan-favorite
healing factor story arc in 2002 while
jerry duggan wrote the character more
recently from 2012 to 2015 and has been
credited with defining the characters
most recent brand of humor when weasel
spills the beans to cable during the
interrogation he points cable in the
direction of Jerry Duggan Parkway don’t
look at it only make it worse but I want
you to hurt me and I’ll tell you
anything anything you want to know
except for where they are Russell’s in a
convoy heading southbound on Jerry
Duggan Parkway the monsters with them I
wouldn’t him as for Simone not only this
wait borrow Gail’s name while calling a
gang member he also rides the red
got it no I don’t number eight Hope
Summers hey we need to ask you what’s
with the dirty disgusting hobo bear it’s
not dirt it’s the blood of my dead
daughter are you bare god It’s Me
Margaret
get me some cable and hope go together
like peanut butter and jelly so it only
felt right that the character get a nod
in the former’s big screen debut
following the mast depowering of most
mutants in m-day in the comics hope was
the first new mutant to be born and
became somewhat of a mutant Messiah
figure the time-traveling cable took her
under his protection becoming something
of a father figure in the film they take
that a step further by having cable
revealed
that’s a daughter he lost the fire fist
was named hope hey didn’t ask you what’s
with the creepy dirty hobo bear my
daughter’s teddy bear her name is hope
could it be that cable wasn’t just
saving his daughter in the film but the
future mutant Messiah who knows number 7
Alpha Flight this Canadian superhero
team isn’t exactly what you would call
an a-list squad of crime fighters
but they do hold a special place in the
hearts of comic-book fans for their
connection to one-time teammate
Wolverine and by extension Deadpool this
crew is likely to out there to ever get
their own film so it was nice to see
them get a big screen nod even if it was
the most fleeting of moments the taxi
that the loveable dopinder drives around
has an advertisement for an airline on
its roof and you wouldn’t know it the
company is called alpha flight number 6
mr. sinister Irene Merriweather whit’s
live here on a breaking news situation
at the Essex House for mutant
rehabilitation not unlike Thanos in the
MCU mr. sinister is getting a lot of
teasers before stepping into the
spotlight at the end of x-men apocalypse
the post-credits scene shows a
mysterious businessman claiming the
leftover materials of the Weapon X
experiment and placing them into a
briefcase that bears the essex Corp logo
as in Nathaniel Essex the infamous x-men
villain known as mr. sinister in
Deadpool 2 the plot thickens as the
orphanage and Newton
patience enter where Russell Collins is
being held and tormented is known as
Essex House sinister is clearly up to
some of his trademark mutants
experimentation but when will we finally
meet him in the pasty flesh
number five acknowledging the TJ Miller
controversy a long overdue reckoning has
come to Hollywood in the form of the me2
movement and it’s making its mark on
numerous productions including Deadpool
– when allegations were made against TJ
Miller the comedian slash actor who
plays Deadpool’s less than reliable ally
weasel there were suggestions that the
filmmakers might replace him like how
Christopher Plummer replaced and re shot
Kevin Spacey scenes in all the money in
the world
so Spiller what’s going on what’s her
game in the end however it was deemed
too late in the process not wanting to
leave the controversy totally
unacknowledged however the filmmakers
snuck in a little nod with an in film
new statement about Christopher Plummer
refusing a role in Deadpool – number
four the cure for blindness and also
it’s about 116 kilos of cocaine buried
somewhere in the apartment right next to
the cure for blindness good luck part of
what makes Deadpool such a standout
character is his love of all things meta
including inside jokes and
self-referential humor I know right in
the first film phool Bertrille Deadpool
tells his snarky elderly friend blind
owl who’s also apparently an ex cocaine
addict that there’s actually a massive
bag of cocaine in her apartment where
you might ask right next to the cure for
blindness in a hilarious throwback
Deadpool 2 sees Wayde return and
retrieve said cocaine perfectly playing
off our assumption in the first film
that wade was just messing with ow the
punchline however is a second package
lying under the same floorboard which is
labeled the cure for blindness number
three one-eyed Willie Josh Brolin has
landed some truly iconic roles
but while he was great as both cable and
the mad Titan Thanos in Avengers
infinity war in our hearts he’ll always
be brand from the Goonies I mean I mean
haven’t you ever heard of that guy with
the pirate guy one-eyed Willy Willy in
this beloved 80s adventure comedy he and
his younger brother accompanied by a
motley crew of friends go after the
treasure of the long dead pirate
one-eyed Willy never one to respect the
die Jesus of his own film or the
limitations of the reality he’s supposed
to inhabit deadpool calls cable one-eyed
Willy during one of their main fights
give me your best shot
one-eyed Willy we expect nothing less
from the Merc with a mouth but this was
just so perfect number two the life felt
jab that pool might be one of the most
successful characters in the medium but
his creator Rob Liefeld is a bit more
divisive he gets the credit for having
created Deadpool Domino and cable but
his artwork is some of the most
frequently mocked in the industry he’s
been called the definition of everything
that was wrong with comic book art in
the 90s sure you can take issue with the
excess of pouches the impossible
musculature or the way he deforms his
female characters for maximum boobs and
butt to hip ratio but it’s terrible feat
that he’s perhaps best known for and
Deadpool being Deadpool he can’t help
but take his creator to task for this
shortcoming number one Deadpool’s
native metaphor for racism in the 60s
Deadpool’s Deathstroke wanted the outfit
is a modern classic that’s become iconic
in its own right
despite its dubious origins with that
being said it’s fun to switch it up from
time to time and his gray in black x4
suit is admittedly pretty cool rather
than actually have weight put it on
however the sequel instead burns
Deadpool badly enough to discolor his
regular suit and covered in ash giving
it the same effect I got one more idea
this was a nice bit of fanservice that
adding to its impact managed to avoid
the cliche outfit upgrade scene that
usually accompanies it of course seeing
him dawn a variation of his x-men outfit
was also a real treat that was that perv
essence school kid or don’t I didn’t I’m
an x-man
