'It always amuses me when I’m talking about Cable and someone makes a comment about him being kinda shit and I agree with them and it totally bewilders them. Yes, Cable is absolutely my favourite superhero. He has a strong sense of goodness about him, and he works his damned hardest for what is best even in impossible situations, he’s kindhearted and definitely a goofball despite his stoic exterior. But he is absolutely shit and I know it. With his over the top outfits covered in utility pouches and massive guns that may or may not be compensating for something and the genuinely awful dialogue that comes out of his mouth (if I ever have the misfortune to actually hear the phrase “stab his eyes” uttered aloud I may just scream) and the abundance of generally shitty artwork he is by far not at all the shining pinnacle of comic books. But fuck, I love him. I love Cable and every last goddamn ounce of his tacky weirdness. I am fully aware of how awful he is and I embrace the shit and I just love him so much. He’s such an entertaining character and he’s damn hot and a shitty C-List actor is absolutely the best pick for him in Deadpool 2. Being kinda shit is one of Cable’s best traits. It makes him super relatable because I know that I too use weird ass phrases and wear ridiculous over the top outfits and am super awkward. He’s my hero' x

i can confirm. cable as a character is silly, overdramatic and over the top, but i love him anyway.
