    Since when was Deadpool part of the MCU? Yes it’s Marvel, but it’s its own thing on the side and for a different audience. Just like the spiderverse movies aren’t part of the MCU.

    This isn’t journalism, this is someone gaining clicks from the topic of the day.

        Well shit, apparently this movie is actually part of the MCU timeline. I hope that doesn’t mean they’ve toned it down.

          Ok so now that I’ve seen it, it’s 100% part of the MCU. I don’t want to spoil anything but yeah.

            It is crazy how of all movies, this is the one leveraging the TVA so much. This is 100% a MCU movie without actually interacting with the MCU timeline (excepting one scene that doesn’t affect it).

            This movie is a send off to the Fox Marvel movies. I see so much complaint about the nostalgia, and while it’s true that this movie has a lot of nostalgia, it is working for the purpose of saying goodbye to Fox Marvel. It’s a vehicle to give goodbye to those nostalgia inspiring characters.
