** Then there's also that time when Juggernaut went through a FaceHeelTurn in the comics.

** The cereal box that Deadpool signs for the kid at the orphanage shows an expiration date of 12-26-20, and cereal typically lasts a long time, so it's probably set around 2018, when the film was released.

** Before Wade shot the guy in the head, they might have been able to. After that, allowing the authorities to take him and Russell was the only option. Colossus was suddenly not remotely in a position to bargain.

*** Yep, Juggernaut isn't 'helping a kid' out of altruism, he's paying back the kid that just successfully broke him out of prison. And the kid's request isn't exactly complicated - 'hey man we're going to go somewhere right now and kill some people I have a grudge against', and then Juggernaut wanders off and continues being Juggernaut.

** Not to mention that Domino DOES represent a minority with regards to uncommon genetic disorders: the comic-accurate "spot" around her eye, in the movie, is caused by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitiligo Vitiligo]], a real-world disorder that causes skin to lose pigment in large patches. Not to mention her heterochromatic eyes.

** Maybe they're not the real X-Men, but a class where a young mutant is testing his or her power to cloak others in illusionary disguises. Making their fellow students look like their teachers would be a good introductory lesson for someone with that type of power, and "de-aging" the disguises to look like old photos of the same teachers would be an advanced lesson.

** Possibly he ''did'' save the other X-Force guys. Zeitgeist landed in the wood-chipper mere seconds after Peter took off his harness, in the original timeline, but we don't see or hear any sign of this occurring as Wade tells Peter to go home in the post-credits scene.

*** Considering the Icebox scene: [[spoiler: the collar was damaged, and it's 'running light' flickering before he hit the table]]. Presumably that allowed a minimal, intermittent, healing factor before then to cushion things.

** Her 'luck' uses what's around; more people may mean the potential for more helping hands. And consider- while her getting on the helicopter for the (initial) X-Force mission was ''her'' choice, having the rest of the "team" there influenced '''when'' she jumped... and she survived the jump.

** Another possibility: This isn't Heaven nor Hell. It's Death's domain. That's right. I'm saying that the Vanessa that we've been seeing in the film could actually be Mistress Death trying to lure Wade to her, using Vanessa's appearance as a means to do. It's not the first time she's done it in any Deadpool related materials (see her first appearance in the Deadpool video game as an example, where Wade wakes up in his apartment and finds himself dancing with her). It's possible that the times that Deadpool "officially" died, he was ended up in her domain, and she recreated the apartment as a means of not trying to freak Wade out. This also explains her "Your heart is not in the right place" comment when he first ends up there, trying to clue him in on how he could officially die. Not to mention, she senses Cable's change to the timeline before he jumps back to save Wade. The whole thing works out that way, just as much of it being "heaven".

*** Not to mention Wade had probably already caught on that, if Cable could alter events to save ''him'' from being shot, then Wade could potentially do the same for Vanessa. Before the revised timeline, the prospect of getting ahold of the temporal dial hadn't seemed viable, because Wade assumed Cable would be returning home immediately.

* A small bit, but why does Deadpool go to Heaven considering he's still basically a psycho killer? Yes, he has some [[AntiHero good qualities]] but still. He did die from a HeroicSacrifce so maybe that automatically makes one go to Heaven?
** It could also be to contrast how the Headmaster kept ranting about mutants ''all'' going to Hell, with what the ''actual'' afterlife of the films' 'verse may really be like, i.e. not nearly so arbitrary or unforgiving in its judgment towards peoples' sins ''or'' inborn qualities.

** If you think about it, Vanessa being alive wouldn't change the plot significantly, except for Wade's motivation. It changes from him going through grief, to proving he can be a responsible father. Assuming Wade doesn't change anything else significantly, he can still follow the plot, pretending that he doesn't know what is going to happen, including recruiting for X-Force and letting most of them die.
