    I give a pass to a lot of this movie because the self referential aspects were essentially the purpose of the movie. This is a movie saying goodbye to Fox Marvel movies.

    Every moment of “Hey remember that?” where the audience points at the screen was also to give audiences who grew up with those movies an assurance those old movies get a send off.

    Unrelated, this frame contains the single most deep pull joke in a Deadpool movie and I actually smiled a true nerd smile in theater when I saw it. “Liefeld’s Just Feet Shoe Store.”

      I smiled when I saw the shop sign in the theater. It’s there’s for a few shots too.

        Yes, they get tossed into it and there’s a pile of shoes everywhere, that’s the first time I noticed it, but it’s in the backdrop for the whole fight. The movie had the uncharacteristic restraint not to call attention to it, which made it extra fun to spot.
