OK, guess it was just a light mention of the NERD RAGE on twitter. But seriously, I was expecting something with at least the ability to quip... And, y'know, not-laser eyes. But the sword!claws just made me go *ARGHLBLARGH* on top of it all. Because clearly having Wolverine's healing factor wasn't enough to show that Deadpool had his powers. And clearly sword work is the same when they're embedded in your arm as when you can make subtler movements with your wrist. And clearly you can still use all the joints in an arm full of swords (ARGHLBLARGH WHY DID THEY DO THAT THEY DON'T EVEN FIT).
Also, I totally agree that there was not enogh killy in this movie. Seriously, the part where Wolverine walks away after learning he was betrayed by his wife, brother, AND employer, all at the same time? He should have at least been killing the scientists who were making Deadpool, from the moment he walked in there. Or, y'know, Stryker.
I guess the first resort pplan was to tell the newbies "THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS AT THE END IF FORGETTING HIS NAME DOESN'T QUITE CLICK FOR YOU." Quite hamfisted, at best.
