+42 Deadpool movies aren't actually funny - they're just cringeworthy attempts at 'edgy' humor, amirite?

So, haven't read any Deadpool comics then? The character, tone and humour is pretty much how it should be.

That's how it feels when I see these opinions. I didn't like Moon Knight but that's on me

Exactly

I mean I've watched Deadpool and the comedy is hilarious to me. I've had a good laugh watching those movies but of course it's not for everyone.

I think this is a stupid opinion

I don't like comedy hero movies in general.

I do find some of the jokes and humor in the Deadpool movies to be pretty funny. But it gets tiring and monotonous after a while, especially for anyone over the age of 16. Deadpool and Wolverine is not a great movie. The cameos and nostalgia really carried that movie.

True, and I agree 100% with the reasoning

I like that tho

by ChangeStriking 5 months ago

I agree with this one. Though admittedly, I hated the first one so much that I never watched any of the sequels.

They're very reference heavy jokes, and not everyone's cup of tea, but I liked it.

Well yeah thats just Deadpool, many reviews point out they dont make him an every joke guy, thats why everyone else makes jokes too, his humor is funny to his audience but flat to others.

Deadpool in Wolverine? That sounds like a completely different movie than the one I saw!!! I mean, I probably would watch it, but forget I said that.

It's the same old superhero hollywood thing, it's so damn boring.

I didn't like it either, turned it off after 30 min.

The Deadpool movies feel like meta-humor to me, like they're sort of making fun of the superhero genre, and I think that's the purpose of the jokes and fourth-wall breaks, and what makes them funny.

Agree, didn't like any of them. Trying way too hard to be funny.

It's not unpopular at all.

I have nothing else to add. Perfectly summarized.

I agree with this and am thankful to have seen someone call it out. You just don't see people taking this stance. I would like to add though, we are way in the minority on this and I usually am. I liked most of the MCU things that have been overwhelmingly panned such as She-Hulk, or The Marvels. I enjoyed a lot of the edgier stuff too I just think Deadpool is a bit too immature and I don't know, like the jokes were made for kids but adults have run with it. TLDR; it insists upon itself

The people who say this are just offended by the jokes lol.

Went to watch Deadpool 2 in theater with 2 other girls and 3 other guys. All the girls and 1 guy agreed it was stupid and the jokes were poorly done. I don't think you are alone in this opinion. That said, the people I've met who loved it are either die-hard deadpool fans (or ryan reynolds fans) OR just some dude who doesn't mind watching 2 hours of seemingly endless, nonsensical action and bad jokes.

by Mysterious-Train3113 5 months ago

100% agree. The deadpool movies are severely overhyped for some reason, never understood the hype. A lot of my friends love deadpool, but for me from the very first deadpool movie it was like meh, whatever, kinda cringe. Tho compared to tho other actual s**t Marvel is coming out with these days, deadpool movies are masterpieces.
