I won't drag this thread down with a lot of superhero talk, and I've written about it in the Superheroes thread anyway, but I don't think the X-Men are a good fit for the MCU.
Yeah, I agree. If he was better at picking roles, he could go pretty far with his "rogueish schmuck" routine, which he's pretty good at. Free Guy and The Adam Project were both pretty meh, though.
I liked the Deadpool movies, but other than those, no. Someone told me Buried (2010) is okay, but I haven't seen it. He was one of the few things I didn't loathe about Blade: Trinity (2004), along with Jessica Biel's arms & shoulders. He was kind of workshopping his Deadpool in that movie.Can you name one good movie where he is the star?

Hugh Jackman is now too old to play wolverine, that's why he wanted to be killed off in Logan.
It's like how Brent Spiner wanted Data killed off after Star Trek Generations or First Contact, but they didn't kill hum off before Nemesis.

Ryan Reynolds is a Saint.
From what I've noticed, there are a lot of names and words from that region of the world that sound nothing like they're spelled.
Yes. Similarly to the Old Irish name Toirdhealbhach, pronounced "Turlo".
That's an order of magnitude worse than Leicester or queue.
That's what happens when monks try to transcribe a foreign language phonetically using Latin characters - the letters don't mean the same as they do in English.
I did also deliberately mention the worst example I could think of! For a lesser example of this, check out the Scots Gaelic name Maol Choluim, which became "Malcolm".

Yes it's an Irish name.
The Si at the start is more like shi, bh is pronounced as a v and the a should have an accent.
Shivaun would be a better spelling.
Irish people get these wrong sometimes too.

My personal favourite is still the 2-part surname (something like Tolmech-Tolmech, I need to check it out as it was on QI years ago) where the parts are identical but pronounced differently because they came from different branches of an inbred noble family.
Traitorfish
The Tighnahulish Kid
There was a guy on here a few years ago who posted a screenshot of his Crusader Kings game, which contained a character called "Ó Flaithbheartaigh", asking if the game had glitched when generating the name. He didn't realise it was just the Gaelic spelling of "O'Flaherty".
