Deadpool and Wolverine has smashed several records after an even better-than-predicted opening weekend, clawing its way to $438.3 million worldwide for the best R-rated box office debut of all time.

Domestically, the outrageous superhero team-up took in $205 million, becoming only the ninth film in Hollywood history to have crossed the $200 million milestone in its opening weekend.

Now, stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have taken to social media to respond to the news, hilariously recreating the X-Men: The Animated Series "Sad Wolverine" meme which shows a lovesick Logan lying down on his bed while looking at a picture of Jean Grey.

In Jackman's version, the picture says "#1 Movie in the World," while Reynolds' post sees Wade Wilson looking longingly at the Logan image.

Have you been to see Deadpool and Wolverine yet? If so, what did you think? Check out our review here, and drop us a comment down below.

The MPAA recently gave the movie an official R-rating for: "Strong bloody violence and language throughout, gore, and sexual references."

“Marvel Studios presents their most significant mistake to date - Deadpool & Wolverine," reads the new synopsis. "A listless Wade Wilson toils away in civilian life. His days as the morally flexible mercenary, Deadpool, behind him. When his homeworld faces an existential threat, Wade must reluctantly suit-up again with an even more reluctantlier... reluctanter? Reluctantest? He must convince a reluctant Wolverine to - F*ck. Synopses are so f*cking stupid.”

In addition to Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in the title roles, Deadpool and Wolverine will see Morena Baccarin (Vanessa), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al), Rob Delaney (Peter), Brianna Hildebrand (Negasonic Teenage Warhead) And Shioli Kutsuna (Yukio) return as their respective characters, and they'll be joined by franchise newcomers Emma Corrin (The Crown) and Matthew Macfadyen (Succession), who will play a TV agent and Charles Xavier's evil counterpart, Cassandra Nova.

Shawn Levy directs Deadpool and Wolverine from a script by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells.

The movie is set to open in U.S. & Canadian theaters on July 26, and will be available in IMAX, RealD 3D, Dolby Cinema, 4DX, Cinemark XD and premium screens everywhere. Will you be checking out Deadpool and Wolverine opening weekend? Let us know in the comments section.

@Snow43214 - Deadpool is the Ace Ventura of the MCU and well deserves to be in it...still not better than "Endgame" but can be in top 5 on most people list!

Thankfully it was better than Deadpool 2.

@TheNewYorker - glad it was, Deadpool 2 was such a downgrade compared to DP1.
LOVED D&W

@TheNewYorker - it actually wasn't. Deadpool 2 had more going on in terms of characterization and story. This film is...."but I wanna be an avenger but she said I don't matter, where's Logan?" And "I'm an alcoholic and somehow humans miraculously showed up to the X-mansion and wiped out the X-Men because that makes sense".

DP2 is a better DP film.

This is a fun MCU film featuring Deadpool with a rated R coating. It's a fun movie but it dropped the ball in the third act. Shoulda had the cameos go on to fight the DP corps with DP and Logan (fitting thematically with Wade's desire to join a team and instead finding and creating his own) and have the team help fight The DP corps instead of the mindless mutant variants... Have Cassandra mind controlling Logan in that final fight and him having PTSD from it internally whilst he kills Elektra, Gambit and ALMOST EVEN MURDERS HIS OWN DAUGHTER X23(have Logan be the one who killed his universes xmen instead of going the safe route of having his alcoholism be to blame) and in the end only Deadpool can talk Logan out of the mind control by monologuing on how both of them really do matter and that it isnt his fault he can be a great man blah blah blah. They botched what was right in front of them. Coulda been a 9/10 and instead it's a hard 7.5 IMO.

@OptimusCrime - Deadpool 2 was better than 1, its problem was its budget didnt match its ambition.

@OptimusCrime - Of course this movie had 3 of the baddest MCU characters together on the big screen...

@incredibleTalk - The disrespect to Electra 😥

@McMurdo - Totally agree, D&W was unexpectedly shallow in characterization and story. DP and W had good chemistry but everyone else and the cameos....I felt nothing for them. Even Laura and Logan's reunion was meaningless because Hugh is a different Logan. All my friends who skipped most of the Fox-men films or pre-MCU movies like Elecktra, Blade, or Fantastic 4 did not understand most of the jokes and references. My girlfriend and those friends did not like the movie because of that.

Movie is fun as hell and I had a blast but it holds nothing in substance compared to DP 1 & 2. I felt this 3rd one was the huge downgrade.

@McMurdo - jfc, it's a fun movie and people are clearly enjoying it. Maybe you're the problem, you humorless wind bag.

@Ryguy88 - I think Deadpool 2 was decent, I probably like it more than most.

Deadpool has the third best comic book movie trilogy.

The Dark Knight Trilogy or Captain America Trilogy for the top two positions and Deadpool third.

@McMurdo - I like the idea of Cassandra Nova manipulating Logan to kill off his universe, like Mysterio in OML.
McMurdo
McMurdo - 7/29/2024, 12:09 PM
@BaddestOptics - i enjoyed it too. And I love comedy. I loved the first two Deadpool films. Doesnt mean I have to pretend this wasn't a 7.5/10

Ryguy88 - 7/31/2024, 10:28 PM
@marvel72 - how did you like Deadpool and Wolverine? I just saw it, thought it was awesome, the most fun I've had at a movie since i cam remember.

@Doomsday8888 - I was gonna post that they have to be so relieved to finally be done with the bulk of the press tour, never mind the relief of finishing the long (and delayed cause of strike) shoot and finishing the edit. Then you drop that nugget and I take it back. Like Daniel Craig, right now he'd probably rather slash his wrists (with his own claws) than want to jump back into another.

@Spidey91 - never doubted it. Jackman and Reynolds have great chemistry on- and off-screen, and they know what plays well with the audience.

Fun, funny and stupid ride. Enjoyed every minute of it. 4/5 for me. Maybe 3.5
McMurdo
McMurdo - 7/28/2024, 5:30 PM
@Izaizaiza - so 3.5 lol. When everyone has to say it's fun and stupid in every praising review you know they dropped the ball on the character work and narrative front. It's a mindless movie. Fun epitomizes it. I don't think it's as good as DP2 and certainly not in the same conversation as DP1
Izaizaiza
Izaizaiza - 7/28/2024, 5:52 PM
@McMurdo - I agree 100%. Has more in common with an episode of The family Guy, then with a actual film with characters and story and stuff
McMurdo
McMurdo - 7/28/2024, 5:55 PM
@Izaizaiza - That's genuinely a really great way to put it lol. You aren't wrong.

Watching the naysayers trying to cherry pick and nitpick anything they can use (in what seems to be a limitless void of articles tailored around the film that just reminds me of Event Horizon) to say that DP & W is bad is tremendously funny.
McMurdo
McMurdo - 7/28/2024, 5:38 PM
@MahN166A - I've not seen anyone say it's bad. Even people trying to say its bad still day it's good and a fun 2 hours. I think people who wanted it to be better than Guardians 3 or the best film since IW feel slighted by such commentary which is their prerogative.
MahN166A
MahN166A - 7/28/2024, 5:46 PM
@McMurdo -

I definitely have where some say that it doesn’t “hold up to the original” or that it’s “overshadowed by all the cameos” and that the ljokes aren’t clever or even funny whatsoever”. Reviews whether they be official, or from fans.

But it’s like you say, their prerogative.

In my words, I’d say it’s THEIR FAULT for trying to make such a comparison
McMurdo
McMurdo - 7/28/2024, 5:49 PM
@MahN166A - yeah I mean no chance it was topping the first. I do feel the cameos were low-key the most exciting parts of the film but do with that as you will. It's objectively a good movie IMO. It's just not the tide turner people were projecting it to be.

The best line in the movie is "Whose your dialect coach? A minion?" 😂

@SonOfAGif - mine was, “Some mutha[frick]as are always trying to ice skate uphill!”
LibraMatter
LibraMatter - 7/28/2024, 7:46 PM
@SonOfAGif - that was a perfect line. I just couldn’t take Channing Tatum’s performance seriously. That line was timed so perfectly during that thought process.
SonOfAGif
SonOfAGif - 7/28/2024, 7:50 PM
@LibraMatter - I had tears coming out with how funny it was.

Marvel's best stuff since Endgame is stuff featuring characters from other studios. The worst elements of the movie involved the shit TVA crap from Loki.

It was nice that WB's DCU studio was called "Shit [frick]s" in the movie. Very nice!
McMurdo
McMurdo - 7/28/2024, 5:39 PM
@PartyKiller - nonsense. Guardians 3 buries this film in every single department. Endgame wasn't even as good as IW.
