How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Deadpool.
Quote #1
VANESSA: So, am I supposed to just smile and wave you out the door?
WADE: Think of it like spring cleaning, only if spring was death.
There's that sardonic tone we were just talking about. Vanessa is sad, afraid, and frustrated; Wade's deflecting from any real exchange of emotion by cracking jokes. He wants to appear detached and tough when inside he's gutted.
Quote #2
WADE: Hey, don't take any s*** from him, Cunningham. How tough can he be with a name like Francis? CUNNINGHAM: Francis? Angel Dust looks at Ajax, like "Is this true?" WADE: That's his legal name. (chuckling) He got "Ajax" from the dish soap.
Wade hits a nerve here. Revealing Ajax's real name and that maybe Ajax isn't as powerful and confident as he wants to appear causes Ajax to ramp up the torture and spend the rest of the movie making like Destiny's Child circa 1999 and asking Wade to say his name.
Quote #3
WADE: Did I say this was a love story? No, it's a horror movie.
The appearance of the film itself can be deceiving. At times, Deadpool practically an offbeat rom-com. (Okay, so really offbeat.) At other times it's a revenge tale. Still other times, particularly when Wade is in Ajax's squalid workshop, it's horrific and downright unsettling.
