Everyone expected Deadpool 2 to have some nutty credits content, but the Merc with a Mouth literally travelling back in time to assassinate the actor who plays him before he can film Green Lantern? Nope.

The entire montage is awesome, in fairness, with Wade (Ryan Reynolds) saving Vanessa (Morena Baccarin) and Peter (Rob Delaney) before murdering the X-Men Origins: Wolverine dime-store version of Deadpool, but having Reynolds kill himself on-screen was a most joyful meta masterstroke.

As a perfect summation of how far Reynolds has come over the last few years and just how damn terrible Green Lantern is, this instantly became an all-timer credits scene for both superhero movies and cinema in general.
