10 Weirdest Times Films Broke The Fourth Wall

8. 16 Wall Break - Deadpool

The red-clad merc with a mouth is known for his fourth-wall breaking entires perhaps more than any other on this list, making a living off sassing his audience as if he's sat there with us. From addressing his previous film roles (and if you know, you know) to complaining about X-men budget cuts, Deadpool is the king of smashing through the screen as well as out of his comic book prison. So it's only fair he gets to do it in the most extra ways possible.

In his first film iteration, Deadpool flashes back to his time in a laundromat with Blind Al whilst in the midst of a fourth wall break addressing the audience, where his flashback then continues his line of thought for him in the past. Amused by his own joke, he comments it's like '16 walls' as he goes full meta with his commentary.

Question is, if he then flashes back again and does the same, is it 64 walls broken? Or 256? Either way, he's causing some irreparable damage to the wall community here.
