Deadpool 2

Trivia: Young Cyclops, Beast, Storm, Quicksilver, Night Crawler and Professor Xavier from the First generation timeline (ie. X-Men: First Class onwards) make a very brief appearance as Wade complains there aren't any X-Men in the mansion. They shut the door so he doesn't see them.

Trivia: On the scrolling text during the news broadcast it says "Notorious bank robbers Westervelt and Ghizas arrested Sunday evening after high speed chase." Dirk Westervelt was the film editor for "Deadpool 2." He also was an editor for "Logan." Nick Ghizas was the visual effects manager for "Deadpool 2." He was also a visual effects artist for the TV show "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." Westervelt was also an editor for the film "Notorious" and "Faster."

Trivia: Tim Miller, who directed the original film, left production early on and was replaced by "John Wick" co-directer David Leitch. Reportedly, Miller and star Ryan Reynolds had vastly different visions for the sequel, and Miller was already in early prep for the next "Terminator" film, so the two amicably agreed that Miller should step away and allow a new director to take over.

Trivia: At the start of the scene where Deadpool and Weasel are recruiting the X-Force, they are looking at photographs of the applicants. The first photo shown is of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. A closer look at the photo will show that her superhero name is Notorious R.B.G. (00:53:55)

Trivia: When Domino is parachuting down towards the convoy, in the shot where she says "They're headed into the tunnel", a large graffiti drawing of Stan Lee can be seen drawn onto the side of a building. (01:03:55)

Casual Person

Trivia: Deadpool briefly mentions that Domino's powers sound like an idea from a "crackpot" who "can't draw feet." This is a nod to Deadpool and Domino's co-creator Rob Leifeld, who is known for his somewhat unique style... and also a bit infamous because he's really bad at drawing ankles and feet.

Trivia: Director David Leitch has a cameo as "Ground Chuck Mutant", one of the mutant prisoners taken on a truck to a new location.

Trivia: When Deadpool retrieves the cocaine from Blind Al's apartment, the bags of coke are sitting next to another object labeled "The Cure for Blindness." This is a bit of a callback to the first film, in which Deadpool facetiously told Al that he had cocaine stashed somewhere in the apartment next to "the cure for blindness." Evidently, he literally did have a cure for blindness.

Trivia: It was revealed after the film was released that Ryan Reynolds himself was the voice of Juggernaut, in addition to portraying the facial motion-capturing work for the digital model. They simply deepened his voice in post-production. In the credits, the voice of Juggernaut is listed as "himself".

Trivia: Scrolling text on a news program in the film jokingly states that Christopher Plummer refused a role in the film. This is a dual reference to Plummer replacing Kevin Spacey in the film "All the Money in the World" after Spacey was accused of sexual misconduct, as well as TJ Miller also being accused of sexual misconduct prior to this film's release, which led to some people demanding that Miller be removed from the final film.

Phaneron

Trivia: Spoiler alert! Zeitgeist has the number 116 tattooed on his arm. This is a reference to the issue number of the comic in which he dies.

Continuity mistake: The tread on Deadpool's boots when on top of the crashed lorry (just after Domino lands on the inflatable panda) are different from when Juggernaut rips him in half and his legs are behind him on the floor. (01:10:45 - 01:12:35)

More quotes from Deadpool 2

Question: Why is the man's groin blurred out in the fight-scene at the Japanese sauna? It's an R-rated movie (or unrated, depending on the cut of the film you watch), so it's not like they couldn't have shown it. The best I can figure is that it's a reference to the fact that genitals are blurred out in Japanese media due to "decency" laws. Is that what the joke was?

TedStixon

Answer: It is a possibility. In Japan, the showing of a person's genital area and/or pubic hair is considered obscene.
