      Basically yeah, and like the Shrek movies the Deadpool movies are some of the better films in the genre it is parodying.

      Kind of. Depends on what the writer wants to do. Deadpool’s versatile like that.

      But generally speaking, Deadpool’s 4th wall breaking has often been used to comment on or satirize the industry. Sometimes the stories themselves become a parody.
