Hello, internet. Welcome to Film Theory, the show that always knows when you're watching.

I can see you

trevor so it's no secret that the mc u has been in some rough waters lately for every certified

banger like loki or x-men 97 it feels like we've had a misstep like quantumia or secret invasion

it's been choppy enough that both disney and marvel have taken a step back and allowed for the franchise to rest.

Yeah, for a franchise that's had four movies per year in the past, the only one set to release in 2024 is Deadpool 3,

featuring the return of Hugh Jackman as the fan-favorit hero that made his career.

I can't tell you, but it does rhyme with pulverine.

And honestly, I'm really rhyme with Pulverine.

And honestly, I'm really looking forward to this one.

Deadpool 1 and 2 were breaths of fresh air for the superhero genre, and the MCU could

really use some of that energy right now.

So what's this new Deadpool and Wolverine movie actually about?

Well, it looks like Deadpool has been arrested by the literal continuity police over at the time variance authority.

You know, the time Gestapo from Loki? Maybe for all that history changing he did at the end of Deadpool 2, maybe not.

Deadpool is informed that...

You become part of a bigger universe. Oh, thanks, Nick. And the TVA needs Deadpool for some kind of community service that will presumably involve a lot of gunplay, sword swinging, and dirty jokes.

Pegging isn't new for me, friendo, but it is for Disney.

You know, basic Deadpool stuff.

But the thing that really stuck out to me here, just how aware that Deadpool is that there's a lot writing on this movie.

And I don't mean like the movie is aware. Literally, Deadpool, the character, seems to know that he has a lot writing on this movie, and I don't mean like the movie is aware.

Literally, Deadpool, the character, seems to know that he has a lot of responsibility for the future of the MCU in our real world on his shoulders.
