When Deadpool & Wolverine lands on Disney+, it will almost certainly set a record for the most f-bombs for a movie on the family-friendly streaming service (definitely blowing past That Darn Cat and Cheaper by the Dozen).
Reportedly, Deadpool & Wolverine has 118 uses of the f-word during its two-hour and seven-minute runtime (with a least few almost certainly being tossed off during that surprising post-credits scene). According to the New York Post, this is a Deadpool franchise record, with the second film clocking only 90. So the MCU came in hot for its first R-rated feature, even if _Deadpool & Wolverine _was rather sexless compared to the 20th Century Fox entries (a moment of pity for the reporter who has to watch a movie while dutifully counting every single fucking “fuck”).
But the box office blockbuster still comes up short when compared to some other incredibly profane f-bomb Hall of Fame classics. Here’s how the Deadpool & Wolverine swear jar stacks up against other famously potty-mouthed mainstream hits (according to IMDB) and the best f-bomb quote from each movie.
'Scarface' (1983)
Oliver Stone’s gangster classic starring Al Pacino made headlines for its language and once was considered the record holder as the movie with the most f-bombs. Now its count of 226 is pretty tame compared to many other films.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “I’m Tony Montana! You fuck with me, you fuckin’ with the best!”
Runner-up: “You know what capitalism is? Getting fucked!”
'Pulp Fiction' (1994)
Quentin Tarantino’s quintessential L.A. crime anthology racks up 265 f-bombs, with Samuel L. Jackson’s beloved Jules leading the charge.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “Don’t be telling me about foot massages. I’m the foot fuckin’ master.”
Runner-up (for sheer volume of f-bomb variety in one quote): “Well, I’m a mushroom-cloud-layin’ motherfucker, motherfucker! Every time my fingers touch brain, I’m Superfly T.N.T., I’m the Guns of the Navarone! In fact, what the fuck am I doin’ in the back? You’re the motherfucker who should be on brain detail! We’re fuckin’ switching.”
'Reservoir Dogs' (1992)
Tarantino’s directorial debut about a jewelry heist gone wrong racks up 269 f-bombs.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “I don’t give a good fuck what you know or don’t know, but I’m gonna torture you anyway.”
Runner-up: “The words ‘too fucking busy’ shouldn’t be in a waitress’ vocabulary.”
'The Big Lebowski' (1998)
Didn’t expect this one, did you? But the Coen Bros.’ slacker masterpiece starring Jeff Bridges has a surprisingly high number of f-bombs with 260.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “This is what happens, Larry! See what happens, Larry?! Do you see what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass? This is what happens!”
'Straight Outta Compton' (2015)
Surely the most profane movie in the music biopic genre, F. Gary Gray’s film starring O’Shea Jackson Jr. chronicles the rise of the rap group NWA in the 1990s and has 392 f-bombs.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “Eat a dick, Brian. Get the fuck out my house. Y’all done here.”
'Casino' (1995)
Not the last Martin Scorsese title on this list. The 1970s Las Vegas-set mob drama had the wonderfully vulgar Joe Pesci serving up slots and lots of f-bombs — 422 total.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “In the end, I had to put his fucking head in a vise.”
'Uncut Gems' (2019)
The Safdie Brothers’ acclaimed film starring Adam Sandler as a gambling addict is an intense pressure cooker set in New York’s Diamond District-set drama, and it has so many f-bombs that even Happy Gilmore would blush: 560, just nine shy of the final film on our list.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “You like to win, right? This is no different than that. This is my fucking win.”
'The Wolf of Wall Street' (2013)
Martin Scorsese stuffs his Oscar-winning three-hour finance epic with so many f-bombs. The movie is widely considered to have more f-words than any other mainstream movie, clocking in at 569. Sure, Wolf of Wall Street is a movie about excess, but that’s arguably a bit, well, excessive.
Best F-Bomb Quote: “I choose rich every fucking time!”
Runner-up: “It was obscene in the real world. But who the fuck wanted to live there?”
Some other popular films that fall in between Scarface and Wolf of Wall Street: True Romance (234), The Departed (237), Do the Right Thing (240), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (248), Jarhead (279), Pride and Glory (291), Goodfellas (300), End of Watch (326) and Summer of Sam (435).
