Rated R for Pirates (Spoilers)
It’s been a almost two years since Deadpool set the bar for R-rated comic book films and we couldn’t be happier with the way things are turning out. Shoutout to the person that leaked that test footage because of you we’re getting a whole new assortment of rated-R comic book movies.
One could argue that Logan would not exist had it not been for the success of Deadpool. Trust and believe we all needed to see X-23 throw that dudes severed head at her potential kidnappers and then viciously attack them creating a violent mess of blood and carnage. A PG-13 movie would have not done Logan justice. Plus, how perfect was Dafne Keen? Seriously, the last time we were this hyped off a kid’s performance, in a rated-R film was Natalie Portman in The Professional. We were watching X-23 merking everyone on screen with tears in our eyes like…”This...is...for…Mathilda.”
Fast forward to the latest announcement of a Venom film starring Tom Hardy and holy sh** ballz we’re geeked! As much as we want to see Tom Holland in this project there are rumors that that might not happen. If that’s the case let's get Donald Glover in there immediately! We’re over here rockin’ out to Logic’s Black Spiderman like, “I think they should know what’s up.” How you gonna make a Venom movie without Spider-man? The only exception would be a Venom vs Carnage film, and even then, why not have Spider-man? But, anything has to be better than the last time we saw Venom on the big screen. That role gave Eric Forman’s career Pai Mei’s five point palm exploding heart technique. In other words he did not walk away from that one.
While the Venom film is still in development we’ll be looking forward to seeing it later this year. Let us know what rated-R comic book film you’d like to see. Our pick is a Death of Superman film that was as bloody and brutal as the comic. Shoutout to Blue Beetle and that purple Supergirl.
