EDIT: 80% now.

Seen it, my thoughts:
Not reading your spoilers but is it worth seeing again because I might go watch it again if it's awesome.

I'm actually considering seeing it again, and I never do that. The last movie I saw more than once in cinemas was the first Avengers.

Movie was amazeballs. They did actually show a horror trailer with a jumpscare before it but it was so predictable I didn't sht myself.
There was a guy dressed as Deadpool in the theatre. I made a heart symbol to him and he came to me and hugged me.
I then yelled "I love you!" and he did the same to me.
He left after I told him about my raging boner.
Spoiler:
This actually happened. I'm not kidding.

Was it "The Other Side of the Door"? Terrible title. Glad you got in and enjoyed it.

Just got back from it.

Very good. There was real sincerity to it and lots of likeable characters, the humour, while crude, didn't come off AS crude, everything felt like banter a pal of yours would say to you, or that one wise-ass in a crowd of freinds who always has to have the last word even when he's in trouble. It's got a lot of relatable moments, and best of all, it has quiet, dignified moments, like
Spoiler:
When Wade and the blind lady are assembling a cabinet...and you feel for Wade when he is put in the chamber and scarred horrifically, he tears up when Francis/Ajax tells him his further torment is more for Ajax's own satisfaction for putting him with his mouth.


Spoiler:
Voltron got a lot of free promotion too, referenced a few times more than some of the other things


And yeah,
Spoiler:
Colossus...steps right off the page, does'nt ever turn human, and I love that Angel Dust is able to do what breaks Wade's hand....and gets to take out by going downstairs. You do have to feel sorry for the X-Men's "big brother in residence", he maintains his wholsomeness and tries to be a good moral compass for Negasonic (who keeps to herself a lot, but when she matters, she sticks out), and he sort of still has hope for Wade even after he kills Ajax.

Loved the cut-out Reynalds mask hidden underneath the Deadpool mask.

Vanessa kicks some ass too, impaling Ajax in the sides, Deadpool winds up with a blade through the brain and starts seeing cartoon animals everywhere

If there's one criticism about the ending, it's that Vanessa did'nt try to outdo Wade with a "my life is shittier than yours" story after he told her where he'd been the last few years, a callback to the conversation when they first met


Go see it. For all the crassness and violence in the promotion, It's a very cosy and heartwarming film

Indeed, there are a lot of serious, heart-warming scenes that are all extremely well done. They never feel forced and never detract from the OTT violence that immediately follows them.

I can't believe this was the director's first movie. What an exceptional way to start directing movies.

Didn't that come out already? And yeah, I hear it's bad.

To be fair, his life is still worse than hers.

It was.

One of my absolute favourite moments was when
Spoiler:
Deadpool broke almost all of his limbs trying to punch/kick Colossus. Everyone in the cinema was howling with laughter!

Also, "Stewart or McAvoy? I can never keep track of these alternate timelines" and "You know it’s funny how I only see the two of you here. It’s like the studio couldn't afford any more X-Men." Those really made me laugh, especially the latter. Because I was actually thinking it before he said it xD


Spoiler:
I get the feeling that the movie could have broken the 4th wall a little more. Maybe have Deadpool grab a boom mic and beat up a camera guy or something. That would have been awesome. Hopefully the sequel will do more stuff like that.

Just to add to what people have already posted here... yeah, go see this movie, have a blast, laugh your arse off, and let Ryan Reynolds do his thing as one of the best comic book character portrayals in a LONG time

Weasel and Blind Al could have been in it a bit more, but what's there is good, especially the Ikea building scene. Pity the "you sound like you have a dick in your mouth" line got cut

And I presume the post credits scene was filmed PRIOR to the announcement of the sequel?

Spoiler:
As much as I think Weasel should have had more to do, Blind Al was great. As you said, the Ikea building scene was so good.

I only found out about the sequel being greenlit from the movie's post-credits scene. I then got back home and read about it online. So depending on where people see it, the movie will be the first place they learn about the sequel.

So at the moment, it seems the Deadpool "series roadmap" is:

Deadpool
Deadpool and Cable
X-Force

Sound about right?

Yup. Colossus, Xavier's mansion, plenty of name-drops.

Wait, I thought Colossus was different. Doesn't he have the accent in Deadpool?

Yes, he's different but he's still in it. (Different actor.)
