In the Deadpool movie (2016), there's a betting system called the 'Dead Pool'. What are the names on the board, and are any of them references to the comics or other media?
1 Answer
According to two sources, the names are, or include:
Shia LaBeouf [Actor]
Bill Cosby [Comedian]
Rob Liefeld [Deadpool creator]
Ryan Reynolds [Deadpool actor]
T.J. Miller [Weasel actor]
Mike Tyson [Boxer]
Ozzy Osbourne [Musician]
Vladimir Putin [Dictator]
Miley Cyrus [Entertainer]
Kanye West [Entertainer]
Lindsay Lohan [Actress]
Charlie Sheen [Actor]
A dead pool is a betting pool in which the wager is on who, among the proffered candidates, will die next. For a non monetary example, see The Rotten Dead Pool.
