They are both enjoyable but I think Deadpool 1 is slightly better. What I did not like about 2 was the lack of a main villain. I wouldn't really call Cable a villain in this. It seemed like 2 was more of a straight up comedy as well whereas Deadpool 1 got a little dark in spots. I still enjoyed them both I just prefer part 1.
DP 1 for me. More of a story and darker with comedy sprinkled in. DP 2 seems like they tried to hard to make it a comedy. Not to mention I really hated the kid.
The X-Force dying was pretty funny. I remember I used to read these comics as a kid and I still have a few lying around the house. I didn't think they would do that with characters like Shatterstar. If they make an X-Force movie I wonder how they will bring them back or if they will just add a new lineup. Negasonic was pretty useless in this movie but I did like Domino a lot.
DP1 was fresh, with the stupid violence and blood, below the belt humor, but this one didn't work for me. Humor uses lots of comics and modern culture reference and feels forced this time. The story doesn't make any effort being coherent ([spoiler] : we still don't know who the kid is or who he becomes), Cable's origins are slightly touched and they're very interesting and can link with X men movies and spinoffs. Adding many X force characters to [SPOILER] kill them like that was really painful.
It was during the Green Lantern scenes. Think it happened before Green Lantern popped up. Deadpool returned back to the parachute scene and saved everyone.
I liked DP1 better, but I'm wondering if it is because it was so unexpected. I never read the comics and was just enthralled with the humor and irreverence. In some ways, DP2 was inevitably going to fall short because of my ludicrously high expectations!

They also showed you X-Force are alive again because Deadpool went back in time to save them and his girlfriend. :-)

I don't remember this part. I either was playing on my phone or there was an additional scene after the Green Lantern part.

I only saw him save Peter, when he told him to "walk away." I guess he could've saved them all.

Probably should add some spoiler tags in this guys.

Ah ok. I thought they implied Deadpool saved the others too. My bad.

No problem Michelle. Just chalk it up to PTSD from having your car blow-up in your face. I'm just glad you're OK.
