Three words to describe this Marvel character? Crass, rude and unpredictable. Imagine a super villain who murders without remorse, decides to switch to the hero team and has no filter. That describes the man in the red and black leather suit.
“Deadpool” came out about a year ago, and with its inappropriate science, jokes with hidden innuendos, plot and action was a quick hit. Coming in 2018, “Deadpool 2” is starting the hype train and a trailer has recently been released.
The trailer isn’t anything exciting, it doesn’t even give you insight into what the movie is going to be about. Unlike most trailers, which show you the best part of the movie, this trailer leaves you confused and wondering what the movie’s storyline is.
Deadpool, also known as Wade Winston Wilson, sees two characters fighting, determines that they will need help and runs into a telephone booth to change into his costume. The irony of the situation comes with the amount of time that it takes for him to change into the costume. A good two minutes of the short trailer is of him having a hard time changing. When he’s finally done, you guessed it, so is one of the male characters.
In saying “done,” I’m referring to the fact that the characters dead. This trailer had the superhero take so long tochange that a bystander was murdered. What makes this trailer even more interesting is that rather than calling the cops, Deadpool lays down his body and questions why there was a phone booth to begin with as well as the struggles he had changing.
The trailer ends with him taking the dead man’s ice cream from his grocery bag and making a joke asking if he’s going to eat it. If you know the character, you know to expect crass humor and action scenes. What you probably didn’t expect was a trailer that, though it is funny, gave no information on to what the movie that is being released a year from May possesses.
