Best comic book movie moments: 58. Ice Skate uphill
Comic book movie: Blade
Blade just finished beating his deadliest villain, Deacon Frost. A guy who essentially became a god. Blade wins by hitting him with multiple doses of EDTA. As Frost is writhing in pain, Blade has one more for him. He pauses, looks at Frost, and says, “Some (censored) are always trying to ice skate uphill”, and kicks the killing dose into Deacon Frost.
While the fight was good, it’s the quote that did it. Blade’s comment adds a final insult to his death. He basically told him how foolish he was for even trying this. Imagine being defeated and the last thing you hear is your enemy taunting you. It’s a demoralizing thought right as you’re killed.
Best comic book movie moments: 57. Wade and Vanessa celebrate the holidays
Comic book movie: Deadpool
Wade and Vanessa went on a date and had sex. After it was over, they wanted to know how long this could continue. Wade, Vanessa, and the audience found out the answer was all year. We immediately found out how true that statement was.
Each holiday represented a different sexual act. Thanksgiving involved stuffing food in each other’s mouths during intercourse. Wade used fake vampire Halloween teeth on Halloween. And International Women’s day was role reversal day. This was a well thought and unpredictable scene. Everyone who saw this will remember it forever.
