Burt Reynolds on the Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson
*quality
Burt Reynolds was the man that taught me that you could have a massive bar fight, but it was all in good fun and then everyone would get drunk together afterwards.
Strangely, this has never happened to me in real life.

RIP Burt Reynolds, dead at 82
The law won't ever catch you now, Bandit.
Céline Dion - Ashes (Deadpool 2 Motion Picture Soundtrack)
"third film uncertain".
BS, there will be a 3rd film. The question is if Reynolds will have anything to do with it.
New Rule: The 'What Were You Thinking' Generation
I'm completely with Maher on this one.
...But, perhaps to his dismay, this kinda also explains (notice the use of "explains" as opposed to "justifies") unacceptable further-back behavior, like having some degree of appreciation for Confederate soldiers and officers in the Civil War, slave ownership by founding fathers like Thomas Jefferson, etc. It is possible to respect positive contributions of people in the past without being required to turn a blind eye to their faults, even if those faults would be utterly disqualifying today.
Quoth Malcolm Reynolds of Firefly:
The Battle Over Confederate Monuments
@newtboy --
Yarr. I had a pretty long response typed up, and then accidentally clicked on a link and lost it.
So here's a short version:
I agree with you on pretty much everything, but "all statues and other monuments celebrating the insurrection should go" has some caveats for me.
Civic places like government buildings, city parks, etc.? Yeah, they should all go (including the State flags that incorporate the stars and bars). But museums (which you noted you are OK with), battlefields, and even a landmark or two like Stone Mountain I feel can be re-purposed so they aren't necessarily "celebrating the insurrection" so much as "reminding us of the evil that can exist in the hearts of men -- even men that some people respect".
Malcolm Reynolds in Firefly said "It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of him was one kind of sumbitch or another." Easier to remember that for Jefferson Davis, Robert E Lee, and Stonewall Jackson, given that their roles in the Confederacy are pretty defining aspects of their legacies. But it remains true for some people like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and many other founding fathers that were also slave owners, even though we often conveniently forget that aspect of their history.
--EDIT--
Oh, by the way, I love that Malcolm Reynolds quote from Firefly, and there's a rather similar one made by the Hound in the (leaked) S07E06 episode of Game of Thrones:
"Every lord I've ever known has been a cunt. Don't see why the Lord of Light should be any different."
Not as relevant as the other one, but I liked it.
Extraordinary Octopus Takes To Land - The Hunt - BBC Earth
I just watched that Glynenhal/Reynolds film "Life"...
just sayin...
Justice League - Comic-Con Sneak Peek
Wonder who that could possibly be at the end?
Maybe it's Ryan Reynolds?
BWAHHAHAHAAHA

Deadpool 2 Teaser
I'd guess the Firefly posters were more a nod to geeks. Deadpool 2's director, David Leitch (also directed John Wick), did stunt work in Serenity. Or could be a joke about Ryan Reynolds, Fireflies in the Garden, though that one is a bit more of a stretch. I'd guess it mostly is about just a nod for the sort of geeks who got behind the project in the first place... or perhaps a casting hint at who may be in Deadpool 2...
As for a rehabilitation idea, this may have filmed around the same time Fox said they'd be open to a reboot if Joss himself would be on board. Though given that came news came out in early February, I'd think this had already been filmed and in the bag by that point, unless they cut things that close in film making. If it was filmed after that news, then it certainly was a nod to that news.
Deadpool 2 Teaser
My guess is there will be an adaptation of Old Man and the Sea starring Ryan Reynolds before we get a Firefly reboot.

Cool. Looks like there are dupes now as well based on more recent posts.
