It's quite fitting that one of the main characters in Deadpool & Wolverine is named Paradox. That's exactly what this movie feels like. With his fourth-wall breaking antics, Deadpool has always been able to have it both ways (pun intended), which worked to great effect in Deadpool and well enough in Deadpool 2. Here, it's used to both embrace and subvert the MCU, adding in R-rated elements while following a tried-and-true formula. It's a movie that wants to be part of the MCU but also wants to celebrate (and mourn) 20th Century Fox.
