There will no doubt be lots said about the rolling turd line - because that's exactly what the trailer is aiming for, partly - and it's definitely the sort of thing that will be picked out for viral coverage of the trailer. It's also the kind of line you can imagine a certain type of dudebro high-fiving everyone too and quoting endlessly.

In other words, it's a line from a script-writer who has watched Deadpool - or more specifically the reactions to Deadpool's more outrageous moments - and decided that that's the way to make a successful R-rated movie. But Deadpool was a lot more than that and even the Merc With A Mouth would probably take pride in mocking this sort of dialogue.

Still, it's going to be talked about and I guess that's the whole point of it being in there.

And now to the positives...
