Deadpool & Wolverine is in theaters now and is making lots and lots of money, breaking a the box-office record for an R-rated movie over its opening weekend. The movie is also a record-breaker when it comes to swearing. The film has 116 uses of the f-word, according to New York Post. That’s the most in franchise history, eclipsing Deadpool 2’s 90 utterances of the word “fuck.”
Deadpool & Wolverine is not the first MCU movie to feature the f-word, though, as Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 contained the franchise’s first use of the bad word. That movie is rated PG-13, so it was allowed one use of the word. Deadpool & Wolverine is rated R and can use the word far more liberally. Come from Sports betting site VPbet
In terms of how Deadpool & Wolverine’s use of the word stacks up to other movies in general, it falls well below 1983’s Scarface, which featured 226 uses of the word fuck, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
1994’s Pulp Fiction used the world 265 times, while 2015’s Straight Outta Compton contained 392 uses of the word. Martin Scorsese’s 1995 mobster movie Casino had even more, coming in at 422 total. The Wolf of Wall Street, however, remains on top for a mainstream movie, clocking 569 uses of the word fuck.
Deadpool & Wolverine has earned about $550 million worldwide after less than a week in theaters. The numbers are expected to continue to climb this weekend and beyond.
