How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Deadpool.
Quote #7
COLOSSUS: Four or five moments. That's all it takes.
DEADPOOL: To?
COLOSSUS: Be a hero. Everyone thinks it's a full-time job. Wake up a hero. Brush your teeth a hero. Go to work a hero. Not true. Over a lifetime, there are only four or five moments that really matter. Moments when you're offered a choice, to make a sacrifice, conquer a flaw, save a friend, spare an enemy. In these moments, everything else falls away. The way the world sees us, the way we— Deadpool shoots Ajax in the head. Colossus vomits.
COLOSSUS: Why?
DEADPOOL: You were droning on.
Here, Deadpool subverts the superhero movie trope of the grandiose, dewy-eyed speech about right and wrong. Colossus is trying to have a moment here, man, and Deadpool ruins it, either because he's bored by Colossus' treatise on true heroism, because he can't wait to conclude his revenge on Ajax, or a little bit of both. Either way, it seems that Deadpool hasn't been swayed completely to the good side by the events in the shipyard.
Quote #8
DEADPOOL: If wearing superhero tights means sparing psychopaths, then maybe I wasn't meant to wear them. Not everyone monitors a hall like you.
COLOSSUS: Just promise—
DEADPOOL: Yeah, yeah, I'll be on the lookout for the next four moments.
Well, then. When Deadpool frames what Colossus wanted him to do this way—i.e., spare the life of an evil psychopath—suddenly Deadpool's inner conflict over being heroically good or continuing to break bad every now and then seems just a wee bit more understandable.
