10 Classic Superhero Gags From The Deadpool Movies That Make Them Such A Great Watch

Their fourth wall breaking, ultra violent antics make Deadpool such a people pleaser. Here are some of the greatest superhero gags from the Deadpool franchise.

Fake Opening Titles

Deadpool doe snot adhere to nroms. It takes the unconventional approach every time. Take the opening credits for example. The movie does not say Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. It instead terms his as “God’s Perfect Idiot”. Instead of crediting itself as a Tim Miller film, the movie states it as “Some Douchebag’s Film”. Even before the movie begins, the opening credits end up making us laugh.

Death By Zamboni

In Deadpool, Wade Wilson is looking for Ajax, the perosn responsible for turning him into a hideous monster. He is torturing a criminal with information. On an ice rink, he intends to crush this criminal with a Zamboni. He says – “Tell me where your f*cking boss is or you’re gonna die… in five minutes..” That’s one slow death right there.

Don’t Make This Super Suit Green….Or Animated

Ryan Reynolds had tried his hands on playing a superhero before he made it in Deadpool. In DC’s Green Lantern, Reynolds wore a fully computer generated suit that looked hideous and perverse. The movie bombed and along with it, Reynolds’ hopes to be a superhero. Thankfully Deadpool helped him regain his footing. In a particular scene, before he is about to be treated for his cancer by Ajax, he says this particular statement.

The Classic “Turn Back Time” Scene

In the mid credits sequence of Deadpool 2, Negasonic fixes cable’s time traveling wrist watch. Deadpool uses it to go back in time and rewrite every bad choice he ever made in his superhero career. He kills himself in X-Men: origins: Wolverine and saves Vanessa. How come the TVA did not intervene?

Zip It Thanos

When Deadpool meets Cable for the first time, the two start fighting. Since Josh Brolin is playing two Marvel characters – Cable for the Fox-Verse and Thanos for the MCU, this joke was bound to come up. And Deadpool spares no expense at calling him Thanos. The timing is perfect.

McAvoy Or Stewart?

After Colossus confronts Deadpool in the first movie, he wants him to change his ways. He says that Deadpool need to talk to Professor Xavier. To that, Wade Wison replies – “McAvoy or Stewart? These timelines can get so confusing.”

Deadpool’s Baby Legs

After Deadpool is ripped in half by Juggernaut in Deadpool 2, his healing factor kicks in and grows him a new lower portion of the body. But since his lower half is still developing, it looks like Deadpool’s lower regions are that of a baby. When he twists his legs and sits back like Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct, it’s cringe and funny at the same time.

I Am Batman

Cable, surprised with Deadpool’s tenacity and persistence, asks Deadpool why he is trying to save the kid and who he is. To that, Deadpool replies – “I Am Batman”.

F*** Wolverine

Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds have a hilarious social media rivalry. To expect a Deadpool and Wolverine crossover seems out of the question. But it was good to see Deadpool making fun of the legendary actor in Deadpool 2.

Superhero Landing

In almost every superhero movie we have ever seen, the superhero does an epic but practically impossible superhero landing. Deadpool says these landings look cool but are “very hard on your knees”. From then on, whenever we see a superhero landing we are reminded of Deadpool’s words of wisdom.
