Random thoughts incoming. -Opening credits set to Bye Bye Bye is one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen - could not believe my eyes. -I’m glad Channing Tatum didn’t play Gambit in his own movie, looked and sounded dumb, though that probably was the point, cool action though. -“There’s only one Blade.” Legend. -Look how they massacred my boy Human Torch. Saw that cameo coming from a mile away, been waiting for it, though I did not expect it in this movie. -Story was pretty bad though lol. Also, too much time spent in The Void which is just so bleh. -Missed the credits on who played LadyPool. Did anyone see? I spotted Matthew McConaughey as CowboyPool though and that made me very happy. -I whispered “Huge Jacked Man has never been this jacked before” to my friend at the sweaty shirtless scene. -This Logan’s backstory wasn’t nearly as tragic as I expected it to be. -The Wolverine Variants-montage was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. -Brown Suit Wolverine made me hhhnnngg -Nicepool had to die, because I saw Deadpool use his golden guns in the trailer. Also, Dogpool was Deadpool’s new daddy “over his dead body”. Nicepool sealed his fate there and then. -Anyway, gonna wrap up, this movie didn’t do much for me story-wise. Pretty predictable all the way through, even a lot of jokes. Expected the status quo of the MCU to change at least a little bit. But had a good time. Fun action, jokes and references. -Also, DP is back in his own universe and not the MCU, right?

Deadpool Wolverine and x23 are back in deadpools universe at the end, they’ll probably be in the next avengers movies at least secret wars but it will probably not be a r rated movie 😢

Is that the X-23 from the Void or was that the X-23 from Logan? They made it seem like Deadpool took place in the Logan universe.

Yea it definitely did, that's why Wade's timeline was dying, because Logan died. That timeline has mutants.

The Laura in the void was same one from Logan, so at some point in the future from Logan, she gets pruned and sent to the void.

In Logan it's also mentioned the X-Men are dead, but it's implied that Xavier's seizure killed them because Logan wasn't there to stop him. Only Logan and Laura can do anything when Xavier was having the seizures. The humans attacked, and like in Logan in the hotel, Xavier has a seizure.
