Pic is from Alita: Battle Angel. I thought it was a well-chosen moment, in a strange, otherworldly film to suddenly drop this, and left me feeling hyped up for the good guys.
“Don’t FUCK with the babysitter!” - Elizabeth Shue, Adventures In Babysitting
Guardians of the Galaxy, vol. 3
I’d been wondering if the MCU would drop an F bomb before they retro-canonized Deadpool and Logan. In this and many, many other ways, GotG3 seemed to really push what you could get away with under a PG-13 rating.
Interesting that they went for a comedic moment (“Open the fucking door”) rather than an emotional one. Still slightly surreal to hear Chris Pratt say it (it’s been a while since Zero Dark Thirty …)
According to James Gunn it was adlibbed and Gunn asked Feige if he can keep it in. The Russos almost had Tony say “Fuck you” when snapping but decided against it. Feige asked Gunn if he really wanted that to be his Marvel legacy to which Gunn answered “Do you know who you’re talking to?”
Billy Maddison saying you gotta “find that fucking dog”
Oh hang on. That was edited out here in the video/DVD release. It was a PG here in the UK
Trains, Planes and Automobiles. A lot more than one F bomb … but since they all occurred in a single furious, scathing diatribe by a human pushed to the end of his limits I hope we can allow it.
I always loved The Core, where the pretentious asshole realizes hes narrating his life away, and has a moment of self awareness before kick(start)ing the earth
