#Cassandra Paradox

I just consistently sail the worst ships. But hey, if my shipping taste is going to be a constant mind fuck, I might as well have OTPs that portray it more literally. (Credit to the breakdown video of Deadpool 3 for screenshot of OTP.)

I hate when people say we don't get pure evil villains anymore while these mfs exist.

Additional mentions: The White Dragon from Peacemaker, Dreykov from Black Widow, Firecracker, Sage, Stormfront from The Boys, Airachnid from Transformers One, Voller from Indiana Jones 5, Moff Gideon from The Mandalorian, Sofia and Forge from D&D, etc.

Went to see Deadpool and Wolverine tonight, it was amazing. Great to see Hugh Jackman as Wolverine again and in the iconic yellow suit.

Spoilers

Ryan Reynolds slips perfectly back into character as the Merc with a Mouth filled with risqué insults, crazy epic fight scenes and fourth wall breaks. Is Deadpool the “Marvel Jesus,” after this?

The fight scene over Logan was epic and the exchange with Wade and the TVA agent was brilliant saying Logan was the best thing to ever come out of Canada. “Get my country’s name out of your mouth.” Lol

Also love the multiverse pisstake and the shade being thrown at Warner Bros/DC with the Henry Cavill cameo. They did a bit of an Across the Spiderverse thing with all the various Deadpools (was that a Welsh Deadpool or just a nod to Wrexham AFC?).

Cassandra Nova was a cool and interesting villain, she’s never really been used in any X-Men tv shows or films before so it was a nice change and funny that the main villains in this movie were both British.

The cameos were many, amazing and a few surprises that weren’t leaked yet, felt like a bit of a eulogy to the Fox Marvel characters. Wesley Snipes’s Blade, Jennifer Garner’s Elektra, Tyler Mane’s Sabertooth, Dafne Keen’s Laura/X23, Aaron Stanford’s Pyro, Ray Park’s Toad, Chris Evans’s Johnny Storm/Human Torch and the debut of Channing Tatum’s Gambit. I laughed when Evans came on screen and thought is this his Captain America or Human Torch? And I can see why they never made that Gambit solo film (no offence to Channing Tatum). Also why was Laura even in the void if she was from Wades timeline/universe after Wolverine’s sacrifice in Logan?

Now that mutants are slowly being integrated into the MCU I would like to think we’ll see more of the Wolverine’s, if not Logan then Laura since Wade was allowed to bring them both to his world.

Something so satisfying about seeing Princess Diana finger Mr Darcy

congratulations to Deadpool and Wolverine for being the only marvel movie to make me gag. Specifically when Cassandra shoves her hand in paradox’s and Deadpool’s face. Wolverine could’ve disemboweled wade like scourge and tigerstar and I still wouldn’t had been grossed out as that crap

Peepaw Cass is a criminally unexplored concept and I intend to change this

DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE (2024, Dir. Shawn Levy) Marvel presents their most significant mistake yet. His days as Deadpool behind him, a listless Wade Wilson toils away in civilian life. But when his homeworld is threatened, he reluctantly suits up as he tries to convince Wolverine...oh hell, just watch.

Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)

“Not now, mommy and daddy are having a conversation.”

Please! (And I am aware I should probably just chalk it up as a Britishism, but the way she casually calls him “darling” in ensuing conversation gave me feels. And that she kept refraining from killing him for longer than I expected — I really needed that relief.) From the time I fell in love with Cassandra Nova in whatever trailer we first see her puppeting Wolverine, I figured I would ship her with Deadpool as my two expected favourites of the film (the two baldies together…plus the amusement of Wade Wilson boning the twin sister of Professor X? the jokes will write themselves). But maybe as late as the last week leading up to release date, I quickly pivoted in seeing the vision of the two British Villains instead, Mister Paradox x Cassandra Nova, on intuitive feeling (Novadox is the best ship name I could come up for them thus far). And I think I was rewarded more than I expected even if still not as much as I wanted. I need that team-up. Like I get that past an extent she would never have a need for him — but I will take an eternity in the multiverse of her just being his domme for all I care (the way she manhandled him in the third act...she went to town on him more extensively than anybody else). I will take anythiiiiing for them. Any content whatsoever. I know I whore myself out for many a rare pair as the only life I know, but I am beggiiiiing the universe now to not be the only shipper in this though I am certain I will be.

There are so many parallels between them that I would have to wait until streaming for the necessary constant pause and re-watch; and I appreciate how they are the bookend villains of the film, posing opposite ends of threats against our two best bubs. Also, I have never seen anything of “Succession”, but probably should now as I was never so thirsty to see any character onscreen than Matthew Macfadyen. I needed that man to live just so I can climb him like a fucking tree. So if I gotta live vicariously through the other hottie of the film then I win doubly.

Plus I feel them to be spiritually adjacent to my being the lone Sylvius shipper in a Loki fandom where literally everybody else has been Lokius versus Sylki. Like consummate TVA agent ❎ chaotic female ostensible villain. (And as I view Paradox to be more bad than good, and Sylvie to be more good than bad, each pair is pretty morally aligned within itself.) And I think I can live with this.

To what extend does people not believing Cassandra go?

Is it like

Cassandra: “dinner will be done in 5 minutes”

Everyone else: “no tf it’s not”
