YouTuber Mightyraccoon! recently posted an edited version of the Avengers: Infinity War trailer in which every superhero is played by Deadpool. It’s exactly the sort of meta, fourth-wall-breaking stunt that suits a character like Deadpool—plus, I giggled every time I saw that Deadpool mask with flowing hair on it. I’m a woman of simple taste.

This trailer jokes about the serious tone of the original, with Deadpool undercutting everyone’s plans and declaring that Thanos’s plans are “boooring.” As we get our full glimpse of Thanos, he asks, “Why the eff does Cable look like a purple Homer Simpson?”

"Beyonce would be in the corner, quiet, just like, ‘When y’all finished let me know.’ So I just laughed,” he said.

Period.”
