The Ice Box

"This kid needs to be in the Ice Box, not here." (From the movie 'Deadpool 2')

What's "the Ice Box" here? Why capitalize it?

  

Top answer

"Ice Box" is not an expression. I can't tell from this one sentence what it means to the guy who said it in the movie. The Deadpool movies use a lot of glib wordplay and off-the-wall references, much of which even the average native English speaker will not get on first hearing.
