Kay, if we're just gonna name meatheads that could pull off Cable, I nominate Henry Rollins. His demeanor sells it, he's got the hair, the jaw, the body, there's no reason not to go for him. Personally, I wish that the plot would be that Cable and Deadpool have to team up to stop a rogue alternate Cable. It's explained due to the X-Men's time fuckery, two alternate Cables who look fairly different and sound nothing alike were forced into one reality. And one vowed to get vengeance, maybe also to kill the other Cable for tenuous reasons. So thus, I'm allowed to have both Henry and Ron Perlman both play Cable in the same movie.

Seeing as we're talking about dream Cable casting, is anyone talking about Dolph Lungdren for Cable? He'd be dirt cheap, good fodder for 80's throwback stuff and certainly looks the part. And seeing as it's an R18+, we could finally have what Always Sunny was hoping for.

Dolph Lungdren has been taking about it! I like the Rollins idea though. Have to dip his arms in latex or whatever.

If Ryan Reynolds rang him up and said "We want to hire you for a role but you have to get absolutely huge, we'll pay you to do nothing else but work out for the next 6 months" that would be Hank's idea of heaven.

I mean, I'd be okay with Cable's non-metal arm being covered in tattoos if they cast Rollins? Hell, add more than Rollins actually has, even. (That said, I'm honestly a little torn between Rollins and Dolph, I'd be 100% okay with either option)

Henry Rollins can actually semi act, but the only roll he can play is apathetic rear end in a top hat grump guy. So I mean he pretty much has Cable down pact. Watch He Never Died because that's basically him playing Cable.

Watch He Never Died because that's basically him playing Cable. He'd be a fine pick aside from his slight lisp. Dolf also has that accent to contend with. But it's not a serious movie at all so gently caress it.

Watch He Never Died because that's basically him playing Cable. Eh, I wouldn't go that far. I'd say he has two roles: Barely held together ball of rage doing all he can to try and keep from snapping (He Never Died), and a completely off the chain madman shouting everything (Mad Stan, every day of his life).

If Cable's in the movie, I hope he has tons of pouches. Deadpool could make a comment like "Do you keep granola bars in your pouches?" while Cable starts to freak about Apocalypse for the billionth time.

Deadpool breaks it to him "Yeah... the team with the budget beat him like a year and a half ago. Middling reviews, they'll probably call me up next time." Like the entire purpose of the movie is subverted within minutes.

It's a pity that Apocalypse is set in the 80s, otherwise they could have Deadpool 2 set during X-Men: Apocalypse. Always just out of sight in the background. "Are you kidding? I'm not going near the main cast. Have you see the rate they go through secondary characters in those movies?" MikeJF fucked around with this message at 10:35 on May 31, 2016 |

No way they could do that with noted time traveller Nathan Dayspring Askani'Son Summers. Just imagine movie Deadpool's sheer joy over getting to go to the 80s. e: Cable and Quicksilver competing for Most Awkward Dad Moment.

Fish Noise posted:At this point, the Cable actor switching begins. Every time Deadpool fucks it up for him, jumps back to the start of Apocalypse again, dragging Deadpool with him. So we see the version with one Cable&Deadpool, two, three... then we skip a few and have ten. Also, Deadpool is one hundred percent aware that Movie Logic says only one of the hims will survive to the end and go home, and each is trying to sneakily make sure it's him. By the time ten of them appear, it just degrades immediately into a fight to the death. Comes down to two, but they agree that maybe because this is a comedy, two of them can live, and they go to ask Monica for a threesome. Very end of movie is one of the two being killed by a gratuitous Wolverine cameo. Right, that's Deadpool 2 written.

People are really pushing for this zany 'meta' stuff in the sequel, when the actual Deadpool film is actually extremely straightforward. There are really just two central jokes: Wilson making sense of his transformation with a series of teen-girl puberty metaphors, and Wilson making sense of his status as "Super-Slave" by imagining himself as an exploited IP. (The two jokes are united, mainly, by the characterization of 'Agent Smith' (read: Coulson) as a pedophile after Wilson's body.] I don't think anyone has noted that the opening fx shot / fake credits sequence is a microcosmic summary of the entire film - the virtual camera moving from Rob Liefeld's credit, to Ryan Reynolds, to Ryan Reynolds in a superhero costume.... There are little beats specifically standing in for the strip club scene, and the firey explosion at the end, and so on. The chronology here is important, because this scene is happening first. The point is that the whole film is a metaphorical CGI car wreck and, more importantly, that we've got an unreliable narrator who is creating half the narrative to justify the attack. Wilson saw this People magazine, and cast Reynolds as himself in his own imagination. Deadpool's success is that it's fairly legit sci-fi about an immortal monster.

Hat Thoughts posted:Can u elaborate on this? Well, for starters, the shot is a fairly direct reference to the CG wastebasket in Fight Club In the context of that film, it's a bit of a hyperreal fantasy sequence where the narrator imagines a spaceship exploring a discarded Starbucks cup:  "When deep space exploration ramps up, it'll be the corporations that name everything: the IBM Stellar Sphere, the Microsoft Galaxy, Planet Starbucks." So, straightforwardly, you have this metaphor of a corporate garbage universe, and that's pretty much what Deadpool offers with its vision of the X-Men franchise as a luxury SUV that's been lit on fire. Again, the camera is a spaceship traveling through this debris and trying to make sense of what happened. Every joke in Deadpool begins with some seriousness. Like when Rhonda Rousey has a nip-slip, that's the same spot in her shirt where she stores her box of matches (matches that, pointedly, she never lights). It's part of the whole 'fire as metaphor for female sexuality' theme that runs through the film (e.g. the prom-sex joke, the throwaway line where the teen girl wants to murder her stepdad...). Once Rousey frees the nipple, stepdad-figure Colossus is rendered powerless while TNW suddenly explodes, overwhelming them both.

flosofl posted:kudos on the unbridled film-school level symbolism-wank. Thanks; symbolism-wanking is what Deadpool is all about. (Like, he literally jacks off a unicorn two or three times over the course of the film.) Hence the character literally saying 'gently caress you' to God while spraying blood from his slit wrist into God's face, while joking about menstruation. In case you missed it, he'll tell a second joke about his arm going through puberty - as part of a larger series of gags about how he can't wear white anymore, since these periodic injuries leave embarrassing stains. Femininity in the film is associated with blood and fire, while the villainous Ajax is named after a laundry detergent and, in one scene, wields a fire extinguisher as a weapon. (Wilson, naturally, wields an explosive oxygen tank). Sorry to say, but you got tricked into watching an art film about vaginas.
