When Wade comes home to meet Vanessa (Morena Baccarin) at the start of the movie, he openly mocks the most controversial scene from Batman v Superman, telling her, "I was fighting a caped bada**, but then I discovered his mom's name was Martha too."
Later on when Cable (Josh Brolin) attacks Deadpool in the Icebox and tells him, "Dubstep's for p***ies", he also gleefully retorts, "So dark. Are you sure you're not from the DC Universe?"
