First Image of Thanos as Cable from Deadpool 2

Cable was created by Rob Liefeld?

Oh my god how could I have not foreseen this. It explains everything
 
The headshot made me think they should have gone with Lang, but he does look a bit younger in the full body shot, so fair enough if that's where they're going with it. At the end of the day whether the casting has been a good choice will be down to the chemistry between them and Reynolds on camera. Brolin seems like a decent egg, so hopefully it'll be a fun watch.
 
Huh. I just realized that all this time, I've been confusing Cable with Bishop from the X-Men cartoon way back when. And yes, I know Cable is white and Bishop is black, but I always thought it was just that comic thing where various people take the name.
 
Is Josh Brolin now officially in first after passing Chris Evans and Ryan Reynolds for number of Marvel characters portrayed on screen, or am I missing someone else?
 
kneejerk reaction is that he's too small, should be more of an imposing figure

that or the gun is too big and makes him looks mall
 
I spent so long trying to figure out how many different guns that thing is cobbled together from before I gave up and realized that it absolutely fits for a character created by Rob Liefeld, the man who loves guns but has somehow never actually seen one in real life.

The gun has knobs

It has knobs and I fucking love it
 
I like it. That's about as good as you could get for a live action translation of Cable. He looks weirdly like Michael Rooker in the close up photo lol.
 
If there's going to be any Liefeld homage, I want it to be that the barrel of the gun has like a 5-degree curve to it that you only really notice if you look directly at it from the right angle.

One of the most powerful telekinetic minds in several universe and he just shoots people

I know he needs it to control his robot scurvy
 
uhm.. honestly?
quite good, but if the actor could get a biit more buff, he would really fit the role..
in the comic cable doesn't look THIS old (as in, less grizzled) and comic cable definitely looks more buffed..
I can make do, as they locked on every other aspect of the char..

it's definitely a better fit than domino..

No actor outside of The Rock is as big as Cable. I mean who could they have even found at the size of the character, who can act and happens to be over certain age?
 
Like the look of cable himself, about as good as you could get it, but the gun is preeeeetty silly looking. It reminds me too much of those 4chan designs guns memes where they just copy/paste attachments to existing guns, and in this case they just glued random shit to a Kriss Vector.

Too small compared to Liefield's cable drawing, needs another 400 lbs of muscle.

Wonder how his backstory will play out.

It's an easy enough mistake to make. They're both from the future, have scars over their eyes, are shown with guns, and I'm pretty sure Bishop has a robot arm/hand too.

to their defense, if you've red a lot of x-men//x-force comics, some of the weapon they have cable handle have over the top design, as in massive metal junk :X
that's the askani'son for you XD
 
Could you write a few paragraph explaining why the design of Domino in Deadpool 2 based on one photograph unsalvageably ruins the essence of the character?

Thanks ��

I didn't know Domino had so many fans, lol

A character with the depth of a puddle, and no real personality has legion and they all showed their ass last week.

Looks like the filmmakers played too much Resonance of Fate.

Oh yeah for sure, Liefeld loves his proportionally fuck hueg guns. but what Cable's sporting here doesn't exactly scream future-tech to me, but we'll see, maybe his backstory is a bit different.

Edit: After thinking about it...I was definitely having a bit of a knee-jerk...cause it's pretty hilarious and fitting that Cable would have one of those 4chan guns, and hell, Deadpool himself might even point out how ridiculous it is, in context it probably works big time.
 
It will probably grow on me. Not feeling it at first. I feel like cable is more swol usually?

I'm sure it will be awesome.

Lol yeah. As for the guns in the pic, I just see a vector body, and an m50 muzzle brake.
