".... But in terms of the vulgarity, I want them to reign it in. Not cos I'm a prude, far from it, but because it becomes the focal point and the obsession to one up it at the detriment to the story...."

I agree; vulgarity has its place, but its like a condiment to the meal, its not meant to be a meal in and of itself. Overuse can just ruin things (like dropping the F bomb in Picard's first season; it was bizarre, unnecessary, and frankly immature). We don't need a Tarantino MCU. Certain properties like Deadpool can handle it well. I could see it in an R-rated film; a Punisher or Black Widow vehicle where it could fit.

Best get used to saying "20th Century Studios" (and "Searchlight Pictures"). 20th Century Fox no longer exists. "Fox" is just too heavily associated with the broadcasting, sports and "news" companies Disney doesn't own. One of Disney's stated reasons for buying 20th Century Fox was so they'd have an outlet for more adult-oriented films, something they haven't had since they got rid of Miramax and shuttered Touchstone. So yeah, pretty much anything Disney wants to target at adults more than kids/families will be/is being released through 20th Century.

Wasn't sure about the official name but yeah, thanks for confirming what I thought Disney should do is what they're doing=just using the old Fox studio for the adult targeted movies/shows. I just hadn't seen or read anything official that that's what they are doing.

Sounds good to me! I was never into Deadpool in the comics, but I've really enjoyed the films! I hope they bring back Domino, because I really loved the chemistry that RR and ZB had together.

I wonder if future movies like Deadpool will still be released under the 20th Century Fox banner or under Marvel Studios/Disney. It would make sense under Fox, I feel it would help audiences know which movies are more kid friendly (Marvel Studios) and ones that are more adult oriented PG13/R (Fox).

Whatever just please scrap the whole love story bullcrap.

Well see...

I'm sure they also gonna have PG version for kids like they did "Once Upon A Deadpool".

I never thought there was any doubt they would keep Deadpool R rated, since the previous films found such success and that being the rating, they'd be stupid to alter things now, I think the most potentially awesome thing is maybe Deadpool being rated R, might open the doors for more properties to be rated R, Punisher, Ghost Rider just to name two would greatly benefit from an R rating.

Honestly if they were to change the Deadpool movies to family friendly it would be a waste and they shouldn't have taken the rights back at all. The big question that I have is if this is going to open the door to more mature ratings for other properties too.
