...did they watch 1 and 2 and somwhow not realize it might just be a tad offensive to the average Christian snowflake?

[–] xantoxis@lemmy.world 62 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I doubt it. They do this mock outrage shit for internet clout. Christians have that, too. Probably just picked whatever the most popular movie was and walked in and out the door.

[–] Krackalot@discuss.tchncs.de 56 points 3 months ago

You give them too much credit, assuming they actually went at all.

[–] TommySoda@lemmy.world 73 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Let's be honest, they probably didn't even watch it at all and were just sitting on the couch brainstorming ways to get clout.

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 35 points 3 months ago

It backfired. All of that persons social media accounts are private now.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 43 points 3 months ago (3 children)

25 minutes?

He says Marvel Jesus in his opening monologue.

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 26 points 3 months ago (1 children)

With the pre-movie ads, it could've been 25 mins

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz -1 points 3 months ago

When I saw it there were 2 previews.

[–] yemmly@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

Could it be that maybe, just maybe, they’re absolutely full of shit?

[–] PhAzE@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Or maybe it was dancing with the corpse at the start?

[–] Uruanna@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

$5 says it's when he gets to the Wolverine on an X cross.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 2 points 3 months ago

That's more a blasphemy against st. andrew though. (He's used to it)

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 35 points 3 months ago

Goes to R rated movie

Is shocked that movie has R rates scenes.

[–] teft@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Marvel jesus is cooler than the original.

[–] DrSleepless@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (2 children)

And he’s got cooler friends

[–] soul@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And probably won't have followers that use his name to start a fear mongering organization called a "church" to gain power over the masses like the other one.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

You know, this is a very controversial and divisive statement? I can't figure out if they do it for all the untaxable money, or the undue influence.

[–] ZagamTheVile@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago (1 children)

We went to a movie we knew we'd have a problem with just so we could tell people we have a problem with it. We know we just gave money to an industry we don't agree with but this was the easiest way to look victimized and sanctimonious at the same time.

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Counterpoint, though: Maybe they didn't, and said they did.

[–] ZagamTheVile@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And possibly they went and stayed. Enjoyed it and are just fronting.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Why they frontin' on my man Dee-Pee?

[–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 17 points 3 months ago

Imagine normal people would act like that. Today i went for a walk and i saw a naked dude nailed to a cross. Don't go outside guys, there are crazy people out there.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 16 points 3 months ago

"We wasted our money proving we don't know what we are doing in life and we want you to support us!"

[–] FatherGascown@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

You know what? Porco dio, Christians are retarded.

[–] Waldowal@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

Is that supposed to be an "I'm not amused" face. She might need to go to the hospital.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

I am sure if it was offensive to any other religion then it would just be free speech 🙄

[–] Rocketpoweredgorilla@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago (3 children)

What were they expecting? A dancing musical number with jesus and noah spraying each other with holy water?

[–] meldrik@lemmy.wtf 7 points 3 months ago

I feel like they skipped Deadpool 1 and 2. Otherwise they would have known what they were getting into.

[–] Bbbbbbbbbbb@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Considering that there are a few musical numbers and that >!DP considers himself Marvel Jesus, him and Wolverine stab each other a ton, we consider jesus' blood to be water or wine or whatever you want to call it, AND blood sprays all over the fucking everywhere....!< you could infer by stretching your imagination that yes, DP and Wolverine were in fact spraying each other with holy water

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 2 points 3 months ago

Just fyi that spoiler syntax doesn't work on Lemmy. You gotta do this to hide spoilers:

To get

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Lol even then it's still Deadpool, so you never know what orifice that holy water will come spraying out of.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

You can see in the pic that he currently has their one brain cell in his possession.

Hugh Jackman is not technically the Lord of the New Testament (though he could be a variant).

[–] netvor@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Imagine as an atheist couple going to a Christian sermon and then tweeting, "WE LEFT IN MINUTE 25, HE'S LOGICALLY INCONSISTENT, BIGOTED AND GENERALLY FULL OF SHIT".

I mean, duh...
