After the [nominees for the 2018 People’s Choice Awards](https://www.eonline.com/shows/peoples%5Fchoice%5Fawards/news/965415/check-out-the-2018-e-people-s-choice-awards-movie-nominees-including-black-panther-a-wrinkle-in-time-and-more#photo-903519) were announced on Wednesday, Reynolds took to Twitter to encourage his followers to vote for _Deadpool 2_ for Action Movie of 2018 and Movie of 2018\. However, there was apparently one other category in which he thought his antihero sequel deserved a nod: Family Movie of 2018. “So honored by all the [@peopleschoice](https://twitter.com/peopleschoice) noms,” he wrote. “Hope you vote for _Deadpool 2_ and feel free to write us in for best Family Film. Because watch your f—ing back, Paddington.” Considering _Paddington 2_ is the best reviewed movie in the history of [Rotten Tomatoes](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/paddington%5F2/)—an aggregate site on which the film currently has an approval rating of 100 percent—it seems safe to say that some fans may not be on board with Reynolds’ takedown of the little brown bear from “Darkest Peru.” [Paddington](https://twitter.com/paddingtonbear?lang=en) was quick to respond with [simply](https://twitter.com/paddingtonbear/status/1037617480146055169) “#hardstare.” The People’s Choice Awards will air live on E! on Sunday, Nov. 11. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5388601/ryan-reynolds-paddington-bear-twitter/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5388601/ryan-reynolds-paddington-bear-twitter/"},"headline":"Ryan Reynolds Has Somehow Managed to Start Beef With Paddington Bear","datePublished":"2018-09-06T15:11:06.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:54:42.302Z","description":"Watch your back Deadpool","url":"https://time.com/5388601/ryan-reynolds-paddington-bear-twitter/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","viral","Ryan Reynolds"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf64136a49462de36/69893994db298720e42609a7/ryan-reynolds-paddington.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf64136a49462de36/69893994db298720e42609a7/ryan-reynolds-paddington.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Ryan-Reynolds-Paddington","caption":"Ryan Reynolds visits Build Series to discuss 'Deadpool 2'","creditText":"Slaven Vlasic/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5388601/ryan-reynolds-paddington-bear-twitter/","name":"Ryan Reynolds Has Somehow Managed to Start Beef With Paddington Bear"}}]}] ```
