Disney has come under fire over a theme park show that it says is suitable for all ages even though it is littered with raunchy jokes about its characters using gay dating app Grindr and wanting to ‘pound’ each other.
Called Story Time with Deadpool, the show plays at Disney’s California Adventure park and is based on the Deadpool & Wolverine movie which hit streaming platforms last week and had the highest-ever domestic debut for an R-rated film.
It stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman as the eponymous anti-heroes who reluctantly team up to save the universe. Although they are characters from Marvel comics and wear colorful costumes, it is anything but a children’s film as it features F-bombs aplenty, repeated references to hardcore sex acts and jokes about taking cocaine.

What a fascinating convo that would be to explain to Walt.
Disney, what are you doing?

If you listen you can hear the actor playing Wolverine say "I'm sure you would"
