Wow, out of nowhere! I was asking myself what they were up to, now that the World Tour is finished.
Although i was expecting a good old Teddy Roosevelt announcement video.
Yeah, with even really getting into shit. No Copycat reference? No reference to be unable to move 4 feet from Cable? Etc
They left a lot of shit on the table.
Deadpool use to work for a lawfirm, that diss writes itself. And T-Ray and Blind Alfred?
In the making of they tell that they didn't know anything about deadpool till it was sugested... so they probably did what they could with wikipedia =P
I half expected Ryan Reynolds himself to deliver the rhymes as part of the Deadpool movie promotion....
Goddamn shame, cause there could have been bars

Wait, this is a real thing? I thought these were made up for that Chromecast commercial.

I don't know the deadpool character, so some of this felt flat for me. Or rather, I think I would appreciate it a lot more if I knew his weird way of delivering and moving was so him.
I see deadpool posts everywhere- this guy is loved, clearly. I hope I can get into the movie so I sort of "get him". I should be able to love the 4th wall things. I usually appreciate that stuff a lot

Man, that one was good. Loved both their parts. And I hate to admit that, because Boba Fett is just the worst.

Do they ever talk about how they get these costumes? Do they just find the best cosplayers and offer to rent them?
No Copycat, Deadpool's one true love
It ended badly
There's a reference to Domino, if it counts

I have a soft spot in my heart for Genghis Khan vs The Easter Bunny. I know everyone but me hates it. The it has the the sickest beat in the entire series.

Watch the behind-the-scenes videos, they explain a lot of it. They have costume designers and sometimes rent/borrow stuff.
That line is correct with you're:
"(You are) comic sloppy seconds"
its only your if line is "your (comic is) sloppy seconds"

Love this one, and I guess good to get it out now before both their movies/franchises get in theatres.
SEASON FIVE !
J. R. R. Tolkien vs George R. R. Martin
Impressed by the amount of "extras" on this one !

That was good, but there was something holding it back from being great like Speilberg vs. Hitchcock or Seuss vs. Shakespeare.
¬¬
This one doesn't have additional rappers coming in. Or lots of visual variety. Which is fine, but yeah...

Tolkien took that decisively. Not even a question.

Yep Tolkien wins. When it showed him in the war with a gun after Martin on his old computer, I went OOOOOOOO
then they had to bring in Led Zeppelin and change the drums. That was great.

Oh, man, nice. So glad these are back. I'll have to watch after work.
Ohhhh my god. If this battle was any indicator for how good the rest of the season will be, I'm all in. That battle was glorious. Props to the makeup team, once again, because I didn't recognize Lloyd until he started rapping, and even Peter looked sooo different.
Both were sick, but... Tolkien won. Hands down.
