10 Recent Movie Post-Credit Scenes Worth Sticking Around For
10. A Tribute To Fox - Deadpool & Wolverine
There has been plenty of emotion brought to screens by the Marvel Cinematic Universe since 2008, enough to make adults and children alike cry the ugliest of tears. There wasn't a dry eye in the house at Tony Stark's (Robert Downey Jr.) funeral, but did anyone expect that they'd be welling up watching a Deadpool film?
In fairness, Deadpool 2 got pretty heavy at times, with the death of Vanessa (Morena Baccarin), and Wade (Ryan Reynolds) wanting to do anything to join her. But still, the appeal of the Merc with the Mouth has always been great action and ridiculous humour that no other characters could ever get away with.
Hence, the surprise at the emotional reel of footage after the credits of Deadpool & Wolverine had started playing. With all the cameos and references, the film did rely heavily on nostalgia, but with the clips from Fox's Marvel universe, in front of and behind the camera, it felt a lot more like a love letter than just fan service.
Particularly being set to 'Good Riddance' by Green Day, the couple of minutes were enough to make any Marvel fan feel something they maybe didn't expect. Yes, Fox's Marvel movies were hit and miss, and some were outright hated, but it was nice to see them acknowledged as properties like the X-Men and the Fantastic Four stepped on over to Marvel Studios.
