Deadpool 2 is a film filled with many, many references. A lot of the references are said outright or prominently shown on screen, but some are so small that they could get lost in all of the brilliant chaos happening on screen. One of them is about Hugh Jackman, but it’s not a reference to the character you’re probably thinking of. Also read: ‘Deadpool 2’ Writers Reveal Why Cable’s Mutant Abilities Weren’t Focused On The creative team behind Deadpool 2 gave fans so much geeky goodness, including X-Force and The Juggernaut done right, but many fans were hoping for a Hugh Jackman cameo in Deadpool 2. Sadly, he didn’t make an appearance in the movie. He does appear in the post-credits scene, but considering that was repurposed X-Men Origins: Wolverine footage, I don’t quite think that counts. There was a less obvious Hugh Jackman reference in the sequel though, involving the 2012 film Les Miserables. At the end of the first act of … [Read more...] about SPOILERS: You Probably Missed This Hugh Jackman Reference In ‘Deadpool 2’

One Way Avengers: Infinity War’s Ending Could Have Been Better, According To Kevin Smith
42 seconds ago *The following contains spoilers for _Avengers: Infinity War_. If you still haven't seen it, there may be no helping you. * Most would agree that the ending of Avengers: Infinity War was absolutely insane. Few of us even believed what we were seeing the first time we saw it. However, Kevin Smith knows how it could have been better. During a recent podcast, Smith talked about a conversation he had with his friend, Comic Book Men's Walter Flannigan, who thought Avengers: Infinity War was a great movie, but thought the film's post-credits sequence was going to go in a very different direction. According to Smith... The final scene of Avengers: Infinity War shows Nick Fury sending a message on a pager. The camera slowly zooms in on it to reveal the logo of one Captain Marvel, a character we will meet in the Marvel Cinematic Universe next year.

Bill Cosby Almost Had A Major Role On Cheers
5 minutes ago When the TV show Cheers gets mentioned, either in passing or as one of the greatest small screen comedies of all time, it's hard not to picture Ted Danson's Sam Malone standing behind the bar and donning both a sparkling smile and a head of perfectly coifed hair. But when Cheers was first coming together at NBC back in the early 1980s, there was a moment when it was possible for Bill Cosby to have become the guy pouring beers for Cliff and Norm. Here's what co-creator Les Charles about the initial casting process. Just think: if brothers Les and Glenn Charles had been excited about getting a major TV star front and center for Cheers, then nabbing Bill Cosby would have been pretty big. Cosby's career in the 1970s was probably more celebrated for his stand-up comedy than for films like The Devil and Max Devlin and the sketch comedy show Cos. Still, though, considering the writing and the ensemble cast had as much to do with Cheers becoming a mega-hit as Ted Danson's … [Read more...] about Bill Cosby Almost Had A Major Role On Cheers
