mb: Cable & Deadpool
Just a few opinions on some of the characters from Deadpool 2…
Nathan Summers / Cable
source: @halakadira
Deadpool: I wouldn’t kill a kid!
Cable: I’m not asking you to kill the kid. I’ll kill the kid.
Deadpool: mmm nah he’s just a kid there’s still hope
Cable: I’m killing him.
Deadpool: can you at least give me some time try-
Cable: you have thirty seconds

Extra Poolossus scenes from the Deadpool 2 Super Duper Cut
The way the media has been treating Ryan Reynolds and Josh Brolin’s dynamic during the Deadpool 2 promotion tour is giving me an insight into how all these homophobic fanboys can look past how blatantly queer the film is:
They think it’s all a fucking joke.
Josh Brolin has said repeatedly that he’s had a crush on Ryan Reynolds for a long time. That he admires him, that he finds him attractive, that his feelings for Ryan are complicated and unrequited but real.
And yet all I’m seeing are articles and youtube compilations about Josh’s “hilarious” “man crush” and how “funny” it is every time Josh talks about Ryan or they interact.
And I would suspect it was intentionally meant to be part joking and part queerbaiting for the purpose of fanning the movie’s hype except that:
Josh is out there correcting people who call it a bromance - saying “It’s a real romance”.
He’s having to tell people that “It’s not a joke”.
He’s calling interviewers out for laughing.
He’s saying that the only reason he feels weird admitting it is because people are treating his crush as funny.
And this audience attitude is the same one that allows Deadpool to come onto Colossus with the exact same context and tone he came onto Vanessa in the first film, and still lets straight fuckboys think it’s a joke.
It’s why Cable and Deadpool can explicitly flirt, and even have Cable do something as hugely self-sacrificing and romantic for the other man as he does, but there will still be people hypothesising that their strong connection is because Cable’s wife is Deadpool’s daughter or something.
At first I was annoyed that the film was too chicken to end with the two characters getting together, even though (without spoiling it for you) it wouldn’t have felt quite right for the plot so soon.
But now I’m suspecting that even if we’d had a passionate, candle-lit sex scene between Cable and Deadpool, these douchebags would still think it was some hilarious joke.
The franchise can capitalise on that homophobia to get more queerness into the movies, and to be honest it probably already has.
But I’m doubtful that they can do anything that’ll get through the thick skulls of these fuckboy-fanboys.
I haven’t seen the movie just yet, and i don’t doubt what you’re saying! H o w e v e r, I’d really like some sources or at least a point in the direction to find those specific interviews with Josh Brolin!
Sure! There’s so many interview videos out there right now, some with only a couple hundred views, and I wish I’d bookmarked all the relevant ones for now but alas I didn’t. Here are a few which hopefully get my point across, but there’s more like it:
The Jimmy Fallon interview:
Josh: I mean he’s tall, he’s ha- … Why am I talking about Ryan Reynolds so much? Jimmy: You have a man crush on Ryan Reynolds? Josh: I do! I don’t- [Jimmy laughs] Josh: I feel weird admitting it in front of you because you’re laughing at me right now, but I feel… I feel confidence in my- [Josh gets awkward and hides behind a magazine]
The Build interview:
Josh: I am a huge Ryan Reynolds fan, and that’s not a joke.
The Getty Video interview:
Will Njobvu: Now, I’m seeing this bromance blossoming between you and Ryan Reynolds, even a bit on screen, and- Josh: I think it’s more of a romance. Will: A romance? Josh: Like, a real romance. Will: Really!? Josh: I like him, man. What’s not to like? I like not liking him. It’s a lot of fun to have friction and tension between Ryan Reynolds and myself. Y’know, we can talk about the characters, and the Deadpool and Cable thing, but it has nothing to do with that; it’s him and me.

He looks genuinely upset in the first gif. Poor guy.
fucking let people have casual same sex crushes it’s not a joke just cos he’s ~conventionally masculine~ doesn’t make it funy what a brave dude fuck
Ryan Reynolds has a big heart and an open mind. He’s married but he doesn’t brush aside how Josh Brolin feels. They are close and friends and Ryan honors and respects how Josh feels without crossing the line into cheating, and without leading Josh on. And Josh doesn’t force the issue because he respects the man he admires.
And then people make him feel like shit for how he feels. They laugh at him and make fun of him. And then Josh is either forced to press the issue by telling folks to not laugh at him, possibly messing with his own reputation, or he’s forced to laugh it off with those who laugh at him.
What I’m seeing is a very tired man making very hard decisions. And it’s heart breaking. :(
Cable, internally: How about you shut your mouth or talk about literally anything other than sex, you asshole? This is not helping me decide whether I want to kill you or fuck you.
[Deadpool’s dialogue from the Deadpool 2 Super Duper Cut]
He still can’t decide.

Josh XD I can’t believe 😂😂😂
(From Kathryn’s Instagram)
I wonder what he’s got on under that floaty cause we know it’s not trunks 🤔🤔🤔
@effortmaximal do you think you could gif Weasel saying “he’s just straight shirt cocking it” for this post?
another comic, with more effort put in. Cable’s psychic powers and techno organic virus weren’t mentioned onscreen either, soooo…
really I just drew this whole thing for the pamphlet.
omg i love drawing these two. ;3;
“Have you seen the heat Cable’s packing? I can’t wait to get my hands on it again - that thing is huge. I bet it could fuck me harder than climate change is fucking the Great Barrier Reef.” -Deadpool, probably
Weasel: “Just to be clear, you are talking about his dick, not his gun, right?”
Like Deadpool, I too have a massive hard-on for what Cable’s packing

I hate the fact men can’t openly admit to crushing on other men without mockery, you don’t have to be gay to find other same sex people attractive for fuck’s sake.
Suddenly Thanos doesn’t look like such a bad guy after all…. I mean surely more than half the homophobes disintegrated after he snapped his fingers, right?
That’s a nice thought
The thing is…it’s because Ryan is a man that this running joke has been able to live on so freely.
Josh Brolin is married with a baby on the way. He is very much in love with his expecting wife and he’s has not been parading around the world confessing his “true feelings” for someone else.
Reverse it and Imagine if he spoke about another woman that way. It would be considered incredibly disrespectful to his wife. Sort of like how weird Chris Pratt & Jennifer Lawrence’s overfamiliarity was on their press tour for Passengers.
Remember that?
But Reynolds is a man. So the joke works. He’s not joking as in making a mockery of bromances and men-to-men relationships. They are just trying to normalise men speaking about friendships with other men in a loving, open way, which is something we need in the world.
You’re completely right about why people are seeing it as a joke. It’s because Ryan is a man.
And you’re correct that if he were talking about his crush on a female co-star and friend, the media would absolutely be talking about the fact that he openly has a crush on someone while married.
I disagree with you on two points though. The first, which I’ve been told many times in replies and through asks, is that Josh admitting he has a crush on someone is disrespectful to his wife Kathryn.
Besides the fact that monogamy shouldn’t be the default assumed for a married couple, it’s my observation that even being in a monogamous marriage doesn’t stop most people from having crushes - that’s not how crushes work. Crushes don’t even mean you necessarily want to do anything about it, they’re just the feelings you have for someone. I’d imagine thousands of married people developed a crush on Ryan Reynolds after watching The Proposal (which is how Josh said his feelings developed).
What would be disrespectful is if either Ryan or Kathryn were either uncomfortable with Josh’s feelings in general or uncomfortable with Josh saying it publicly. But in fact he said he has discussed it with them both privately, and both Ryan and Kathryn have happily referenced it in public. The most respectful thing in any relationship is communication, and that is what’s going on here. This is how I would feel whatever the gender of the recipient of the crush.
The second thing I disagree with you about is your conclusion that since if Josh had a crush on a woman he would be facing a different scrutiny, that means that his crush on a man is a joke. Yes that’s why his crush is barely being talked about, but that’s because it’s not even getting to the stage of being taken seriously. Both reactions would be bad to me, but this is the one I’m talking about - the homophobic one that we have.
He has literally said it is not a joke. He has said it is a romantic crush not a “man crush”. He has said this on multiple occasions, explicitly, never with any hint that he’s not serious.
Even if he is joking by lying/acting, you are ignoring what he has very clearly said about it, and that’s exactly my point on why the media is biphobic, because they are not even believing his words. If Ryan were a woman, they would not even be debating whether this were a joke or not, they would just listen to the words actually coming out of his mouth and believe him.
It seems that Wade developed a liking for the strap-on between the movies.
