Bold Mettle and Bawdy Banter at Disneyland

Beware, kiddos! Disneyland, famous for it’s PG fun, is testing the boundaries of innocent diversion by inviting some positively non-princess-like guests. Flourishing their super spy credentials, Deadpool and Wolverine from Marvel’s recent release, are striding into Disneyland’s Avengers Campus. This visit, alas, will be fleeting, just like a Cheshire cat’s grin from Alice in Wonderland, but perhaps grimmer.

Deadpool, Wolverine and ‘Story Time’

These R-rated guests won’t just be lurking ominously in obscure corners of the park, but are set to get chummy with visitors. Brace yourself for rendezvous with Deadpool in his cozy reading corner, dishing out super special stories from his big fat book of tales. Now, we expect nothing moderate coming out from the merc with a mouth, but Disney promises this will all be ‘family-friendly’ narrations. Injecting family values into Deadpool? They might as well have tried to puzzle out the eternity of a Möbius strip. Time will tell how that pans out.

Adding a dash of unpredictability to the proceedings, Wolverine might drop by unannounced during this ‘Story Time’. Moreover, these two might crash other events such as ‘Avengers Assemble!’ and ‘Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Dance Off!’ in Avengers Campus. Picture Wolverine in a gyrating dance-off with Groot. You’re welcome for that mental image.

No Fun without Merch, Right?

It’s not entirely out of character for Disney to leverage their newest additions in any way possible. So yes, you can start polishing up those pennies for Deadpool and Wolverine themed souvenirs – because when you go to Disneyland, you quite literally buy into the magic.

Culinary Twist: Chimichanga with Wolverine Claws

In a show of thematic commitment that almost closely matches a Vegas wedding, the Pym Test Kitchen restaurant is serving up a ‘chimichanga’ complete with claw marks from Wolverine. As if that’s not enough to etch this memory permanently onto your hippocampus, Disneyland is discreetly vague about how long Deadpool and Wolverine are going to grace the Avengers Campus, giving the phrase ‘limited edition’ an adventurous spin.

To wrap it up, Disneyland is pitching a curveball and looking to ramp up its allure with a dash of comic book drama and R-rated oomph. Just remember to check if your chimichanga is actually Wolverine-proof.
