8. A Familiar Action Figure
As you may recall, the abysmal X-Men Origins: Wolverine actually marked Deadpool’s big screen debut. While Ryan Reynolds was great as Wade Wilson there, it was when Fox decided to shoehorn in their own version of the Merc with the Mouth that things went horribly wrong. Fans were furious about the creative decisions which were made – he had his f***ing mouth sewn shut! – and Reynolds himself has expressed his disbelief over what they did to the character on numerous occasions. Brilliantly, this movie includes a shot of a “Deadpool” action figure from Wolverine’s first solo outing and features Wade telling Ajax that it really wouldn’t be a good idea for him to sew his mouth shut after the villain threatens to do so.
