Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy has taken to Instagram to share what appears to be a deleted scene or alternate ending for the recently released threequel.

During the movie's final act, the Merc with the Mouth and Logan battled the Deadpool Corps and were saved from a rematch when "Peterpool" showed up and earned the approval of Ladypool and company. Later, we'd learn that the Corps were sent back to The Void.

However, in this sequence, we see that Kidpool and Headpool have returned home with Rob Delaney's Peter. The mild-mannered car salesman is shown feeding the latter some popcorn before the foul-mouthed Kidpool appears to unleash another torrent of abuse!

We'd imagine this will end up on the Blu-ray and it could explain recent photos of Peter visiting the Tva; perhaps the original idea was that he'd "adopt" some of Wade Wilson's Variants?

Wolverine's most iconic line is also the one line that can sum up his character and what he believes he stands for.

James Howlett Logan, born in the late 1800s, has led a nomadic life throughout his time in the Marvel Comics, traversing the globe in pursuit of a family and a home. The emergence of his bone claws marked the beginning of a journey fraught with loss, as he navigated a path lined with the fallen - both friend and foe. As a mutant with a remarkable healing factor, he is inevitably destined to outlive those he holds dear. This reality, perhaps, contributes to his rugged demeanor, sharpened tactical understanding, and unique skill set. Notable abilities include heightened senses, enhanced physical capabilities, and a skeletal structure reinforced with the indestructible adamantium.

John Lennon‘s songs drew inspiration from numerous different sources, including Ludwig van Beethoven, Elvis Presley, The Tibetan Book of the Dead, and … television. He once tried to work a line from a public service announcement into a hit song. Instead, he used the line as an album title.

An moved and moving River Gallo thanked a full and cheering house for turning out to the premiere of Ponyboi. The intersex actor starred in film, which is both a crime thriller and exploration of gender and identity. Gallo is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns.

Gallo also wrote the screenplay based on a theater piece they had developed at at NYU. Estaban Arango directed.

Unfolding over the course of Valentine’s Day in a seedy area of New Jersey, a young intersex sex worker must run from gangsters after a drug deal goes sideways, forcing him to confront his past. Gallo is the heart of the gritty crime drama that’s also an exploration of masculinity, femininity and judgmental hierarchies that exist inside the queer world as well as out. Being Intersex is medical/anatomical — when a person generally appears to be one sex but has the dominant anatomy of the other.

Chicago – Here we are again, the end of another year, and it’s time to momentarily look back. Thus opens the 10 Best Films Of 2023, the list that represents one soul interacting with the art of cinema. That soul belongs to Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com, Wbgr-fm and Wssr-fm.

So begins my list, with such a lofty and third person proclamation. By far, the story of the year is Barbenheimer (the same weekend release of Barbie and Oppenheimer), proving in the digital age that something weird and organic can take hold, and get more people to the theaters, celebrating a true movie event. Kudos to the movie celebrators who did both in one magic day.

I format my 10 Best to reflect the on-air reviews I do weekly on Wbgr-fm and Wssr-fm and New on Missourinet.com. Each of the 10 Best will be in the on-air or audio format for your listening pleasure.

Death Grips are the latest act to fall victim to crowds who can’t behave themselves. The experimental hip-hop group ended a recent set in Fayetteville, Arkansas early after audience members continuously pelted them with glow sticks.

According to NME, fans threw objects at the band several times throughout the show, and Mc Ride left the stage and came back more than once before ultimately abandoning the gig for real. The trio was 25 songs into their reportedly 29-song set when they ended the performance.

As a Reddit user who attended the show recounted, “Someone threw a phone at them and Ride threw the mic on the ground and walked off and back. Someone threw a glowstick that hit him in the chest and he walked off, back and waiting for more. Another glowstick was thrown and they left. Fair is fair.” Watch fan-shot footage of the incident below.

Photograph by Bettmann/Getty Images/Courtesy of HBO From the time Mary Tyler Moore got into show business, she made a living by entertaining people. But, as she became more and more popular, she started to become something more than just an actress and a dancer: She became a role model. As one of television’s pioneers in the ’70s, portraying a successful single woman on The Mary Tyler Moore Show who was career-oriented rather than fixated on finding a husband, Moore wound up becoming one of the poster children for feminism at a time when American society was changing quickly. Right now, there’s an excellent documentary, Being Mary Tyler Moore, that examines her role in popular culture at the time. But, when we spoke to the late actress, she once told us that she’d never imagined she would be thought of as a role model. (Click on...

Last year, speculation about the sexuality of “Heartstopper” star Kit Connor hit such a fevered pitch that the young actor — then just 18 — was forced to come out as bisexual, following the same trajectory as his character on the show .

A poster inspired John Lennon to write The Beatles’ ‘Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!’

During a 1971 interview in the book Lennon on Lennon: Conversations with John Lennon, John discussed a song from Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. “There was Henry the horse in a song I wrote called ‘Mr. Kite!'” he said. “The lyrics, which I got most of off an old poster for an old-fashioned circus from the 1800s, were all about Pablo Fanque’s Fair, and the horse was there, and they said Henry the horse was horse [heroin], which I didn’t know anything about then.”

Outlets like Vulture, Deadline, and Variety report different lists of disappearing titles, including “Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings,” “Big Shot,” “Magic Camp,” “The Mysterious Benedict Society,” “The World According to Jeff Goldblum,” and “Willow.” The full extent of the purge may not be known until after it occurs.
