It's just good to watch how actors/actresses play their respective roles in a movie, more especially in courtroom scenes. Seeing them in action makes one really think that they are actual attorneys or lawyers in real life. With their convincing speeches, facial expressions, their realistic depiction of courtroom strategies and techniques, as well as the tone of their voices, makes one really want to stand up and applaud them for their performances. Herewith are my top five courtroom actions that are just too memorable and worth watching over and over again. My Cousin Vinny
My Cousin Vinny stars Joe Pesci, Ralph Macchio, Marisa Tomei, Mitchell Whitfield and Fred Gwynne. It was directed by Jonathan Lynn and was released on March 13, 1992.
When two friends, Billy Gambini (Ralph Macchio) and Stan Rothenstein (Mitchell Whitfield) were wrongfully accused of a crime they didn't commit, they called on their cousin, Vincent "Vinny" LaGuardia Gambini (Played by Joe Pesci) who has just passed the bar exam after six attempts. He willingly accepts to defend them in court even though he has no actual trial experience. He is accompanied by his fiancee, Mona Lisa Vito (Marisa Tomei). Joe Pesci's acting is just humorous and at the same time very convincing. For her resounding performance, Marisa Tomei won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress at the 65th Academy Awards in 1993. JFK
Screenplayed, produced and directed by Oliver Stone, JFK was loosely based on 2 books - the 1988 book by Jim Garrison titled On the Trail of the Assassins and the 1989 book by Jim Marrs, Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy. It stars 2 popular actors with the first name of Kevin, namely Kevin Costner as Jim Morrison and Kevin Bacon as Willie O'Keefe. Also appearing in this movie are Tommy Lee Jones as Clay Shaw/ Clay Bertrand, Laurie Metcalf as New Orleans Assistant District Attorney Susie Cox, Gary Oldman as Lee Harvey Oswald, Michael Rooker as the New Orleans Assistant District Attorney Bill Broussard and Sissy Spacek as Jim Garrison's wife, Liz Garrison. It was released on December 20, 1991.
It narrates the story as well as the sub-story of the assassination by US President John f. Kennedy. The film JFK was nominated for a staggering eight nominations at the 64th Academy Awards which includes Best Picture, Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Tommy Lee Jones, Best Director for Oliver Stone, Best Original Score for John Williams, Best Sound for Michael Minkler, Gregg Landaker and Tod A. Maitland, Best Cinematography for Robert Richardson, Best Film Editing, and Best Adapted Screenplay both for Oliver Stone and Zachary Sklar. Of it's 8 nominations, it won two awards - Best Cinematography and Best Film Editing. Kevin Costner did extensive research and actually met Jim Morrison himself before portraying the role. A Few Good Men
Released on December 11, 1992, the movie was based on a 1989 play by Aaron Sorkin titled A Few Good Men. It was also written by Aaron Sorkin for the film and was directed and produced by Rob Reiner. It has an impressive line up of stars headed by Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson, Demi Moore, Kevin Bacon, Kevin Pollak, Wolfgang Bodison, James Marshall, J. T. Walsh and Kiefer Sutherland.

It is up to the inexperienced and hesitant US Navy Marine Lawyer Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee played by Tom Cruise and his team to find out the truth as to what real happened at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba.

Primal Fear
Primal Fear is a crime-thriller film that stars Richard Gere, Laura Linney, John Mahoney, Alfre Woodard, Frances McDormand and Edward Norton. It was based on the 1993 novel by American novelist and photojournalistWilliam Diehl bearing the same title. It was directed by Gregory King Hoblit and was released on April 3, 1996.
Primal Fear is about a Chicago defense attorney by the name of Martin Vail, played by Richard Gere, who always wants to take on sensational, high-level court cases to be on the spotlight. Thinking that by taking on the case of an altar boy named Aaron Stampler, played by Edward Norton, who has been accused of viciously attacking and murdering an Archbishop would bring him more fame and glory, well, let's just say, he will be in for a big surprise. Edward Norton's portrayal of the role earned for him numerous praises from several award-winning bodies, most notable of which is his nomination for Best Supporting Actor at the 69th Academy Award. To Kill A Mockingbird
To Kill a Mockingbird stars Gregory Peck, John Megna, Ruth White, Paul Fix, Brock Peters as well as Frank Overton and introducing Mary Badham and Phillip Alford. It was released on Christmas Day, December 25, 1962 and was directed by Robert Mulligan. It was based on Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize- winning novel bearing the same title that was published in 1960. The movie garnered a total of 8 nominations at the 35th Academy Awards and won 3 namely: the Academy Award for Best Actor for Gregory Peck which was presented to Gregory Peck by Sophia Loren, Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for Horton Foote and the Academy Award for Best Art Direction - Set Decoration, Black-and-White for Henry Bumstead, Alexander Golitzen, and Oliver Emert. The movie also won 3 awards at the Golden Globe: the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama for Gregory Peck, the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score — Motion Picture for Elmer Bernstein and the Golden Globe Award for Best Film Promoting International Understanding — To Kill a Mockingbird.
Atticus Finch played by Gregory Peck is an honest and honorable lawyer who was assigned to defend a black man that has been accused of raping a white teenage girl at a time when racism and belief in inequality runs high. To Kill a Mockingbird is considered as one of the greatest movies of all time. These 5 films are really worth seeing and I suggest you watch them too for they will truly make your day.

Mickey Mouse was voiced for more than 30 years by a talented sound effects editor and foley artist, Wayne Anthony Allwine from 1977 to the year 2009 while Minnie Mouse was voiced by Russi Taylor since 1986. They got married in 1991. Wayne Allwine was born on February 7, 1947 in one of the cities in the Los Angeles County called Glendale. He started to provide Mickey Mouse's distinctive falsetto voice in The New Mickey Mouse Club Show in 1977 and in 1983 he gave the voice of Mickey in the 1983 film Mickey's Christmas Carol.

- Date Night, a comedy crime movie released in 2010 starring Steve Carell and Tina Fey and directed by Shawn Levy where she appeared in a small role as Mark Wahlberg's girlfriend from Israel named Natanya...
- Knight and Day, an action comedy movie also released in 2010 starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz and directed by James Mangold. Remember the girl Tom Cruise met in Cadiz, Spain named Naomi who is a representative of an arms dealer..
But with three movies in the Fast and the Furious series and with more screen time, I'm pretty sure, she has caught your attention. She played the role of Gisele Yashar, a liaison for a local drug lord named Arturo Braga in Fast and Furious 4. In Fast and Furious 5, she was recruited to become a member of Dominic Toretto's (Vin Diesel) team. And in Fast and Furious 6, she made a dramatic scene by sacrificing her life to save her boyfriend Han (Sung Kang). Still doesn't ring a bell? Well, when an announcement was made in December 2013 by Warner Brothers regarding DC Entertainment's next film, the sequel to the Man of Steel movie to be directed by Zack Snyder titled Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, wherein they will feature Ben Affleck as the new Batman in replacement of Christian Bale, Henry Cavill again reprising his role as Superman and the entry of a new heroin to the movie world, the princess from the Amazons, Princess Diana of Themyscira or popularly known as Wonder Woman, to be played by Israeli model-actress Gal Gadot, that certainly caught our attention. When the new trailer (the second trailer) from the upcoming movie Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice came out recently, seeing for the first time Gal Gadot as Diana Prince and as Wonder Woman in action, her snippet appearances are just fan-pleasing and exhilarating.
She smashes her indestructible metal bracelets ( in the comic world it is called the Bracelets of Submission which is made of amazonium and is supposed to be magically made by the Greek Goddess Aphrodite) together and creates a somewhat explosive and powerful effect just like a shockwave. WOW! If Fix-It Felix from Wreck It Ralph saw it, his reaction would be the same as mine... "She's one dynamite GAL!"
And just a bit of information about Gal Gadot. She was born on April 30, 1985 in the City of Rosh HaAyin, right at the heart of Israel. She has served at the Israeli Defense Forces for two years and is very well skilled in hand weapons and is very athletic having played basketball, volleyball and tennis. She is also a great dancer. She also loves driving a motorcycle. In 2004, she won the Miss Israel beauty pageant and won, thus representing her country in the Miss Universe Beauty Pageant of 2004. And yes guys before I forget, she is already married to an Israeli businessman named Yaron Varsano. They were married on September 28, 2008 and they now have a daughter named Alma.
She became the cover of many magazines, she has endorsed many brands ranging from clothes and perfumes to beauty products, her face has been etched many times on postage times of various countries, and have been nominated and have won so many awards - Best Actress in a Leading Role for the film Roman Holiday in the 26th Academy Awards, winning at the 45th Emmy Awards in 1993 for Outstanding Individual Achievement, Informational Programming for Gardens of the World with Audrey Hepburn, winner at the 36th Grammy Awards in 1993 for Best Spoken Word Album for Children – Audrey Hepburn's Enchanted Tales which are readings of classic children's stories, winner at the Tony Awards in 1954 for Best Actress in a Drama for the film Ondine and receiving two Special Awards - first in 1968, a Special Tony Award - Special Achievement Award and in 1993, she was given a Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, a Special Award given by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) for her outstanding contributions to humanitarian causes at the 65th Academy Awards. With such an illustrious career, Audrey Hepburn is truly one of a kind.
Audrey Kathleen Ruston or as we all knew her, Audrey Hepburn was born on May 4, 1929 in no. 48 Rue Keyenveld, Ixelles, a prosperous municipality in the City of Brussels, the Capital of Belgium. She is fluent in several languages namely English, Spanish, Dutch, Italian, German, and French. She started learning ballet at a young age of 5 and pursued more skills from the likes of well-known ballet dancer, choreographer, dance teacher, and dance instructor Sonia Gaskell and Dame Marie Rambert. Her father was Joseph Victor Anthony Ruston born in Bohemia, a region in the Czech Republic while her mother was a Dutch aristocrat named Baroness Ella van Heemstra.
At age 18, she made her first appearance in the 1948 film Dutch in Seven Lessons wherein she played the role of a KLM stewardess made by Charles van der Linden, a travelogue to the Netherlands. She earned her first money out of acting receiving fifty gilders.
Her first major supporting role was in the movie, Secret People, which was released on February 8, 1952 and was written and directed by Thorold Dickinson and produced by Sidney Cole. It stars Audrey Hepburn as Nora Brentano, her older sister in the film Maria Brentano was played by Valentina Cortese, Serge Reggiani as Louis Balan and Charles Goldner as Anselmo. Thorold Dickinson was so impressed by Audrey Hepburn that's why he made a screen test for young Audrey and sent it to his friend William Wyler, who is preparing his next movie in Rome, Roman Holiday.
She got her big break, a major role in the romantic-comedy movie Roman Holiday that was released on August 27, 1953 and runs for 118 minutes. It was directed and produced by German-born American film legend William Wyler. Audrey Hepburn plays the role of a princess named Anya Smith who wants to make an adventure in Rome on her own and explore the city without any driver, assistants, chaperons or bodyguards, just like what any ordinary normal girl would like to do. She stars opposite Gregory Peck as an American expatriate news reporter based in Rome named Joe Bradley. With the sedative given her by her doctor to calm her down, Ann falls asleep in a bench and was found by Joe. As a gallant man, Joe offers Ann some money to take a taxi and go home, but Ann refuses. Still feeling weak, Joe offers to take her to his apartment instead and rest there. The two spend the whole day visiting the sights of Rome until the time Ann departs back to her country's embassy. Roman Holiday earned 7 nominations at the 26th Academy Awards and won 3: - Academy Award for Best Actress for Audrey Hepburn - Academy Award for Best Costume Design, Black-and-White for Edith Head and - Academy Award for Writing (Motion Picture Story) for Dalton Trumbo
Her next big movie is the romantic-comedy Sabrina, which was written, produced and directed by Billy Wilder and was widely released on October 15, 1954. Audrey Hepburn plays the role of Sabrina Fairchild and co-stars with William Holden and Humphrey Bogart playing as the brothers David and Linus Larrabee, both of whom are desperately seeking the affection and admiration of the youngest and very beautiful daughter of their chauffeur, Thomas, played by John Williams. The movie garnered 5 nominations at the 27th Academy Awards and won 1 - the Academy Award for Best Costume Design - Black and White - for Edith Head, This is Edith Head's second win in a row with both films featuring Audrey Hepburn. Audrey was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress.
Her other famous films include War and Peace in 1956 with her husband Mel Ferrer and Henry Fonda, Funny Face in 1957 with Fred Astaire, Love in the Afternoon also in 1957 with Gary Cooper and Maurice Chevalier, The Nun's Story in 1959 with Peter Finch, Green Mansions also in 1959 with Anthony Perkins, the Western movie The Unforgiven in 1960 with Burt Lancaster and Lillian Gish.
And who cannot miss the unforgettable movie, Blake Edwards's Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961, where she wore the famous little black dress and plays the role of a fashionista named Holly Golightly and also stars George Peppard, Patricia Neal and Buddy Ebsen. Also worth mentioning are her movies which shows her versatility as an actress like the lesbian-themed movie The Children's Hour in 1961 opposite Shirley MacLaine and James Garner and the suspense-thriller movie Charade in 1963 with Cary Grant. She would make a movie again with William Holden, the first one was in the movie Sabrina, it is titled Paris When It Sizzles in 1964, a comedy movie. Noteworthy films of Audrey Hepburn includes the controversial movie, My Fair Lady in 1964, playing the role of Eliza Doolittle with actor Rex Harrison, How to Steal a Million in 1966 with Peter O'Toole, Two for the Road in 1967 with Albert Finney, Wait Until Dark with Richard Crenna also in 1967. After a long absence she made several comeback movies like the one with Sean Connery in the 1976 titled Robin and Marian, the novel by Sidney Sheldon, Bloodline in 1979 with Ben Gazzara, James Mason, Romy Schneider, Omar Sharif and Irene Papas.
Audrey's last major role was in the comedy movie They All Laughed where she plays as Angela Niotes and teams up again with Ben Gazzara and also stars John Ritter, Colleen Camp, Patti Hansen, Dorothy Stratten and Blaine Novak and was written and directed by Peter Bogdanovich and was released on August 14, 1981.
Her illustrious career also includes numerous humanitarian works most notable of which was her appointment as Goodwill Ambassador of UNICEF. She has gone to far-flung areas of the globe to the most distant and isolated places to reach out to children and the starving, overseeing projects to provide drinking water to drought and famine stricken areas, helping out in feeding areas to provide food and potable water to displaced children and families due to wars and unrest and other humanitarian causes. In the year 1992 because of her efforts and in recognition for all that she has done for the UN and the UNICEF, she was given the highest civilian award given by the United States, the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Audrey Hepburn's life ended on January 20, 1993 due to appendiceal cancer (appendix cancer). Her remains were interred at Tolochenaz Cemetery, in Vaud, Switzerland. I leave you with Audrey Hepburn's screen test for Roman Holiday with renowned and Academy Award Winner, Hollywood costume designer Edith Head.

Who's ready to go to war? Welcome once again to Dateline Movies, and today, we'll be discussing one of the most exhilarating and potentially breathtaking crossovers that's yet to come, aside from Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, Captain America: Civil War!
Before we head out into the superhero battlefield, readers who saw that we might have ticked-off Deadpool after we tried to show him the door politely, which didn't go as planned. And now, it looks like he's sharpening his knives and he'll kill us for that on our upcoming Spotted! Part 10: Deadpool! We need your help so that Deadpool would kill us. You can share, like, tweet or anything just to save our heads! An advanced "thank you" is in order.
Now that we stopped begging, let's hop to it! Also, do note that we are using a fan-made trailer again, (credits to Alex Luthor), and although a partial synopsis has been released, a comic book story arc entitled "Civil War", which will be the source material of the film, will be used to add more information!
What we saw in the trailer? Note that in the very first Spotted!, I made some guesses on how Civil War may go down. The following synopsis has been altered due to the new details given. Following the action that took place in The Avengers: Age of Ultron, the United States Government have grown tired of the endless destruction that the heroes have always left behind after every throw-down (engaging in fights). As such, the Superhuman Registration Act has been implemented to control the violence. This law clearly states that all superhumans must reveal their alter-egos to the public, and must work 24/7 for the government. Iron Man, played by Downey Jr. (A Scanner Darkly), Black Widow, played by Johansson (Don Jon), War Machine, played by Cheadle (Ocean's Eleven) Hawkeye, played by Renner (Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol) and The Vision, played by Bettany (Mortdecai), Captain America, played by Evans (The Iceman), Scarlet Witch, played by Olsen (Martha Marcy May Marlene), the Falcon, played by Mackie (Pain and Gain), the Winter Soldier, played by Stan (Black Swan), Ant-Man, played by Rudd (I Love You, Man), and Agent 31, played by VanCamp (Revenge) make their return in this film, and are at war with each other! Old enemies return, as HYDRA agent Baron Zemo, played by Brühl (Rush), with his assailant Crossbones, played by Grillo (The Purge: Anarchy), is out for vengeance. Wakandan hero and emperor, the Black Panther, played by Boseman (Draft Day), enters the stage as well, but with his own agenda. Spotted! Hidden Surprises and Trivia (Spoiler Alert!)
1. "I'll Be Seeing You": For our first hidden surprise, although not really as it is already confirmed, Peggy Carter dies of old age. This has been expected already as we saw her on a very critical state in The Winter Soldier movie, and come on, do your Math! The character has already been around since the 40s!
2. Not Morgan Freeman's Son: This is a good one! You might have known him as that guy who played Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit Trilogy, and that guy who played Dr. John Watson in the Sherlock series. He is Martin Freeman! That's right Marvel fans, Martin Freeman will be joining the already large cast of Captain America: Civil War! Until today, the role is currently undisclosed from the public. Mark Millar even gave us a clue on who he might be! Here are some guesses. I would be excluding any character that 20th Century Fox currently has rights to, or anything that is really far-fetched. So fans, don't expect Captain Britain, Union Jack, Pete Wisdom or adult Spider-Man here.
This one is the likeliest. According to Umberto Gonzales, Martin Freeman may be someone who will interrogate the Black Panther for information, and he'll be reprising that role in a future Black Panther movie. The closest to fit the description is Everett Ross, an escort of the Black Panther and a member of the U.S. State Department.
A politician, Henry Gyrich is a long-time annoyance to the superhero community. He often fears those who have superpowers as something worse than death! This one has only mild sense, as Henry Gyrich has no connection to the Black Panther except when he is inserted into the story!
This one is almost impossible, since as you might have read in our fan-cast post, J.K. Simmons is the pure embodiment of J. Jonah Jameson! But then again, Marvel looks as if they are starting fresh! Martin Freeman proved from time-to-time that he can be a no-nonsense, fast-talking, sarcastic yet admirable fellow!
Now for the more far-fetched guesses! Another Spider-Man related entry, Norman Osborn / The Green Goblin, who was memorably portrayed by Willem Dafoe in the original trilogy, has been a thorn on Spidey's side for many years! I have never heard of a Martin Freeman sinister performance before, so maybe this could be his chance to stretch his acting limits! This may not be true, as rumors are swirling that Matthew McConaughey is being eyed for the role.
A lot of Marvel fans have already heard of the confirmation that an Inhumans film is in the works. Although a little, if not really crowded, this films could make some references to the Inhumans, just as how the show, Agents of SHIELD debuted them! If you could compare the two of them, Martin Freeman and Maximus looks almost identical.
Edward Chase
This is tricky! It is possible that Martin Freeman's character already appeared in Age of Ultron, but you can neither see nor hear him. Remember that one scene with Ulysses Klaue? He could be the man Klaue was talking to at the other end of the line. He is an original character named Edward Chase, the British Prime Minister who is smuggling Wakandan weapons from Klaue!
3. The Enemy Of My Enemy: Many actors and actresses have reprised their respective roles for this film, but one of the surprising returns was that of William Hurt's "Thunderbolt" Ross character. Not only does it proved that the Incredible Hulk film has a connection to the universe, and not some out-of-place filler, it also increased the number of possible stories that could be integrated into the franchise. We could be seeing the return of Hulk's supporting cast. Wait, will we also see Ross transforming into the Red Hulk? Yes, please!
4. The Black Panther Rises!: One of the newest characters to make their first appearance is the Black Panther. However, unlike the other heroes joining the fight, he prefers to remain on his own side, and mostly departing from what the comic book said. There is a pretty interesting reason for that. We know that the Winter Soldier took part in a lot of terrorist attacks. It is possible that the Winter Soldier left a part of Wakanda in ruins, and is enraged by it. He also didn't join Iron Man because he saw what happened the last time he visited. In addition, a supposed leaked script suggests that both Iron Man and Black Panther are after Bucky.
5. Fight As One!: Even with the large amount of details the flick already has to offer, a few major characters from the comic book stories are currently missing from the confirmed cast. It could be possible Marvel may be inserting a few cameos, or maybe we won't be seeing a few of them after all. Here are some possible appearances. Do note that all characters listed are only those that Marvel currently has rights to, and these characters have debut at least once in the cinematic universe. Any out-of-place ideas (such as the Guardians of the Galaxy) are not included! Nick Fury, the Hulk and Thor won't be in this film by the way, as it was confirmed by each ofthe actors.
Spider-Man is almost the primary focus of the entire Civil War arc, so without Spider-Man in the picture, Civil War would almost be impossible. Besides, everybody needs to see the Iron Spider in action. It was a miracle that Sony and Marvel mended their differences to give us a Spider-Man that will do the character some justice. Tom Holland will play Spider-Man.
Captain Marvel, or sometimes addressed as Ms. Marvel, is part of Iron Man's team. Even though much of her part in the story involved mostly action, her role is nevertheless integral. As of now, the actress who will play Captain Marvel is unknown.
Hank Pym, instead of Scott Lang, as it was seen in the movies and although an impostor played half of his part in the comics, held the mantle of Ant-Man. Being a scientific mind just like Iron Man, Hank Pym will sides most likely with the Pro-Registration Act, and might serve as Scott's guide in film. He is retired after all. Michael Douglas played Hank Pym.
Okay, he died on the previous film, but that doesn't mean he can't be brought back from the dead. A lot of clues already point out that he may be back after all. And come on, we need someone who will handle a crazed cyborg in Thor's place, and what better way to do that than bringing back Quicksilver, but brainwashed. Aaron Taylor-Johnson played Quicksilver.
They are the reasons why you can't stop watching Netflix. Even though these characters' roles are very important, yet somehow small, in the story, we need a few extra hands to aid our star-spangled freedom fighter. Charlie Cox played Daredevil. Kristen Ritter, Mike Colter, Jon Bernthal and Benedict Cumberbatch (although will appear more in movies, and will probably stick more on the neutral side) will play Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, the Punisher and Doctor Strange respectively. Who will play Iron Fist is currently unknown.
You either believe or you don't in Joss Whedon's thoughts, but admit it, you miss Coulson on the big screen. Phil Coulson and his ragtag team of agents are currently enjoying success on the small screen, but they are still SHIELD, an ex-government sponsored agency. To paraphrase, most of the people you saw in the show, and in the movies as long as they are members, may appear, except for Nick Fury.
Supporting Characters
Now for the less superpowered side. There is no need to explain this, but just to clarify, our heroes could use some moral support. To paraphrase again, almost all of our heroes' friends may appear, with the addition of Marisa Tomei as Aunt May?
Villains That Are Still Alive
Villains are mostly unfortunate in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, for they never seem to make it out alive after every battle. Since everyone that has superpowers will be involved, the bad guys who taunted our heroes may most likely make an appearance, even if it is the shortest shot.
6. A Bundle Of Joy: According to joblo.com, a lot of juicy details have arisen in the net. So allow me to enumerate all of them in the shortest way possible, and at the same time, the catchiest as possible.
7. Side-by-Side?: Man this sure does feel like The Avengers 2.5, with it's large cast and all! Most of you might be asking right now, "Whose side are you on?", or better yet, "Which side will our heroes choose?". As a comic book reader, I have done my part in researching a lot of things. While I was snooping around, I was able to learn which side the Marvel Heroes would be on, and below are lists of each sides' members. This one is for the confirmed characters only, as the rumored appearances are to be added only when confirmed. The sides may change depending on the film's version of the story. And now for our final Hidden Surprise, here are the possible rosters! I won't be the one to explain this time, because I'll leave that task to you. Let us know in the comments section of your own members lists.

Deadpool: Well, well, well! Look what we have here. Dad: What do you want now Deadpool? Deadpool: Still aching to kill the two of you. Got to say, that is one long article of yours. Me: There is such a thing as a "long post". You probably haven't heard of it. Deadpool: Oh I've heard of it. You're not the only one who goes to 9gag for the "lolz". Dad: So are you going to keep interrupting us? Every post? Deadpool: Not all the time. I gotta do my movie after all. Anyway, I gotta fly. Ciao! Dad: We need to keep syndicating. Me: Yep.
