So random trivia tidbits. The Flash and Aquaman cameos were not filmed on the Suicide Squad set. The Flash cameo specifically was filmed by Marvel as Gunn had gone back there to work on the next Guardians by the time it was lined up. Aquaman’s sounds like it was done on the set of his next movie.

The fight scene to Do Ya Wanna Taste It was excellent and the best point of the episode.
The Eaglie helmet scene gave me flashbacks to the Baby Groot prototype fin scene.

The only way we can ever solve anything is to look in the mirror and find no enemy

Yknow i was thinking about Viglilante and how he is a deadpool clone kinda like people are saying, but then i realized.
He is deadpool if deadpool was an actual psychopath and not a "Haha look im so random" psychopath.
Deadpool tells jokes, Vigilante never told a single joke i think, he was 100% serious the entire time. HE is funny because he 100% means what he says every time he says it.

Not to mention Vigilante isn't a Deadpool clone at all.

Deadpool (Wade Wilson) is in fact a clone of Deathstroke (Slade Wilson).


These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

I'd agree.

Deadpool, at least as he is these days, in certifiably insane and funny because of all the ways he pokes fun at comic book tropes. Ryan Reynolds rendition is arguably not even crazy at all, just obfuscating stupidity to an insane degree.

Vigilante is more of a played completely straight insane. He's legitimately, earnestly, psychotic who just likes killing people. He's funny in Peacemaker largely because of the completely whiplash of his insanity and the casual way he goes about it. He's walking around shooting people without a thought while otherwise acting like Peacemaker's well-meaning but kind of dumb best buddy. Most of the jokes around him aren't even that he kills people. It's that he's a well-meaning friend who tends to feth up.

Particularly true of the original character. Luckily Joe Kelly replaced everything except the costume with something far more original before he became popular.

Absolutely and totally enjoyed it. All actors were really great in their roles and the writing was superb, IMHO. It was the snarky sarcasm that you could get away with on a cable show, but not a Marvel movie which most of DC stuff is compared to.

I really like the way they wrapped up each character arc, even if a lot of it was rushed in the last couple of episodes. I think Peacemaker is one of the best short series I have watched in quite some time.

I am down for a season 2... And so glad I jumped off of that juvenile gak, bad writing/bad characters mess that was BoBF. I guess it got better when the Mandalorian showed up and hijacked the show? In any case, they had already lost me and doubt I will go back.

Now Hawkeye was at least somewhat well done and liked it, but I do not need a season 2 of Hawkeye.

I will say if you liked Mandolorian you should definitely watch the last three episodes of Boba, they’re very much a mini season 2.5 of Mando and really moves his story forward a bunch in a short amount of time.

You can honestly just start watching Book of Boba Fett at episode 5 and you're honestly just not missing much. The story will still track.

I hadn't really thought of this, but you know, it probably tracks better. Like, from a storytelling perspective, Boba taking the throne is part of Mando season 2 and the last 3 episodes of Boba are really framed from Din's perspective with Boba as a secondary character in the same way he was in the latter Mando episodes. It's probably cleaner to keep with Din's perspective than it is to try and reframe Boba as the protagonist.

That's good, as frankly, Boba was a bore. However, has the writing and storyline grown up at all? The first few episodes I watched were so amateurishly juvenile, I cringed at nearly every line, especially when actors are weak and cannot make it work with a tame script. Some are masters at this, but very few.

But it was excellent because every episode we have watched that song and dance. A cheap trick, but effective.

I like the honest trailer for the marvel rings film where they highlight his sidekick does many marvel roles, including being hawkeye after half an hour of training.
