Deadpool and gun safety

[donmontalvo]

Sorry guys, I posted this link without providing some context so it was removed. I reviewed the rules, hopefully this will cover requirements.

Even though this is a movie, is this scene something Fox should be told should never be used in a movie? Seems pretty reckless. I know, its just a superhero movie. But still, we don't want to read about someone doing this as a gag and, well, we all know what can happen...

Have you seen the movie and are you familiar with the character?
This is classic Deadpool. Safety isn't one of his strong points.

You mean you think some guy will see that and say, “Kewl, let me do that.” If so it is just nature’s way of improving the gene pool, and you should never mess with mother nature.

LOL ya ever know, but yea #DarwinsLaw should prevail.

If we ding this, we'll have to ding almost all gun handling in almost all movies...

(Now excuse me while I flip two semiautos in the air, draw a fresh mag in each hand and let the pistols fall onto them to reload ).

There ARE people that will say "Kewel, let me do that." See my thread on kids drinking "Dewshine", a mixture of Mountain Dew soda and racing fuel.

In the scene above, the handguns were out of ammunition at the time...it was central to the scene.

The Deadpool character was played very well by Ryan Reynolds in that movie.

Warning - it is NOT for kids.

Due to its instant success, the next Wolverine movie may carry an R rating.

Apparently they don't get that it was Deadpool, not the r rating, that brought people in?

You can't properly portray the Deadpool character without an R rating...

Kids copy what They see in Movies,Does Anyone remember back in the 1950's when there was a rash of dumb Kid's playing Superman by jumping off the Garage Roof with a Blanket for a Cape because They saw George Reeves fly? Or jumping of a high place trying to use a Umbrella as a Parachute because They saw it on T.V? Hollywood needs to be a little more careful about what They put out there in a Kid's Movie.

[Snowninja]

If you don't know any better than to not jump off a roof, there's not much out there that's going to help you...

And no offense meant, but this is the part of the movie you're worried about? You're ok with the 147 people he killed, but we draw the line at sniffing guns?

By the way- it was a great movie.

I understand that. But what I'm saying is that it was the character himself that brought fans to the movie. The R rating is necessary to have the film be accurate to the character, but no one went to see the movie based on the rating.

With an R rating , even as a super hero movie, this is NOT a kids movie.

Entertaining movie, definitely not kid friendly.

Lots of good references to old movies. Stick around for the scene after the credits.

Good spoof of Ferris Bueller.

The way our range ventilates, I can keep the muzzle down range and still inhale.

They're movies. I remember a book and movie about a talking pig, and another about a mouse that drove a car . . . If your kid thinks he can fly off the roof with a blanket tied around his neck, you have many more problems than launching a campaign aimed at censoring Hollywood.
