Well, she's almost 40. In LA, that is unforgivable for an actress.
You ever seen Margot Kidder in Superman IV?
He was still Ryan Reynolds with bad skin and spent more screen time with his sexiest man alive face exposed than the made-up one. I've seen uglier grocery store clerks. I have a regular client with far worse deformities (from burns, I assume) and never seen anyone but kids glance more than twice at him and never heard a word muttered in his direction.
That was kind of one of my thoughts, but I suppose it's a balance between trying to make him "hideously disfigured" like he is in the comics and trying to still make use of Ryan Reynolds's good looks and not hinder his ability to emote with his face,. When he was trailing Vanessa and was hearing/seeing people talk about him and staring at him it seemed odd. He looked like a burn victim not someone you'd really recoil at. I know someone with rather severe vitiligo and, yeah, one may give him a second look before realizing he ahs a severe skin disease but it's not going to be hushed whispers and staring. (Granted, a lot could have just been Wade's own nervousness about his looks misinterpreting the whispering and looks being about him.) When Vanessa recoiled a bit it was also odd. Again, yeah not as handsome as he once was but he's not hideous. But, hey, if you face is something Morena Baccarin would be happy to sit on I'd say you're doing something right.
Funny thing, the Cable and Deadpool series back in 2005 made reference to Ryan Reynolds being what Deadpool looks like under the mask.
Still hot.
I'll call her average looking, she definitely looked her best in the first Superman. I definitely prefered Ursa in Superman II and Lana Lang in Superman III.
Wade was Ryan Reynolds handsome before the change, but I did like that they didn't cure him of his looks at the end of the movie or some BS.
Excellent film, I'm so glad I saw it at the cinema with the hubby. Crass, brass, funny and heartwarming. Can't wait to see it again at some point.
The funny thing is all the Valentine Day marketing of the movie as a romantic love story weren't really misleading.
Ah, I didn't see that. I'll look for that next time. And since that nullify's my prior quibble I now have a new one... Strange how the
"cure for everything"
Me too, at first. The superstructure looked very much like on
aircraft carriers. I'd bet it was a conversion. The engine pods are kept on the down low, look to the screen corners next viewing.

If those are the choices for Cable, I'll go with Stephen Lang. Muscles and cyber-enhancements aside, in NO universe could Perlman, Nash or Hamm conceivably (heh heh) be the son of James Marsden's Cyclops and Famke Janssen's Phoenix, even less their 80's counterparts.
Quite true.
Best super-whositz movie I've seen in about ten years. Hysterically funny, so feelings will be hurt. Also, being a really good movie it doesn't need a sequel. It will have one.
It made sense to preserve Ryan's photogenic good looks, no problem with that, but granted treating his disfigurement as drawing the kind of attention it does in the film does not make sense.

I finally saw it last night and found it enjoyable. I would've liked a few things added in to the film for a bit more streamlined sense of where DP is in Fox's X-verse but still, enjoyable.
My initial take is this is taking some time after X3 but unknown if it's before or after The Wolverine. I base that on absolutely nothing and I have trouble reconciling the Colossus change. Even though Colossus is more like the comic version, actually being Russian, I guess we can chalk it up(and any changes), to DoFP and it's time altering.
Actually thought it was going to be more vulgar than it was.
I'm somewhere on a B+/A- grade for the film.

Personally I was really hoping for some much sharper digs and critiques of Fox or Marvel or even DC, but most of it seemed to be just gentle ribbing more than anything. Or jokes that were more sophomoric than truly biting or edgy.
But then again I was flipping though some Deadpool comics and most of the jokes in there are pretty cheesy and tame as well (with a character who basically just comes across like a lovable idiot), so maybe I was just expecting the wrong kind of thing from this character and thinking he was supposed to be a lot more edgy and cool than he really is.

Well, based on the dialogue
his healing factor is natural in this origin story. But the whole healing factor fighting the cancer part is the same.
