Did Deadpool 2 bring dubstep music back?
By Sandy C.
From the DC Universe to Frozen’s Let It Go, Deadpool 2 throws shade at a lot of things. But one of their victims may be having the last laugh.
Haven’t watched Deadpool 2 in theaters just yet? Light spoilers ahead, turn away now or proceed if you don’t mind…
Dubstep, you either love it or hate it. If you’ve seen Deadpool 2 already, you know Wade Wilson is a fan. But Cable? Not so much. The electronic dance music was all the rage in the early 2010’s, and while it’s still around, we don’t hear it as much. That may change thanks to Deadpool.
Deadpool 2 is nonstop laughs. The characters (well, mainly Wade Wilson) never miss an opportunity to poke fun at the superhero genre or give us a pop-culture reference.

The joke begins when Cable (Josh Brolin) tells Wade he’s from the future. There was no way Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) would take any of it seriously, whether he believes Cable or not. Instead, Wade tells Cable he has three questions, one of them is: “Is dubstep music still a thing?” Cable, in the middle of the fight with Wade, responds, “dubstep’s for pu****s.” Wade then says the line, “So dark! You sure you’re not from the DC Universe?” Wade then shouts he loves dubstep and cues in the music!
It’s a hilarious scene, the audience loved it! And, apparently, it stuck with them. Are more people listen to dubstep now?
