There has been a massive marketing campaign in the months leading up to the release of Deadpool & Wolverine. We saw quite a few Heinz ketchup and mustard billboards when we were in New York to see Back To The Future: The Musical this summer, including this massive advertisement on Times Square.
DiGiorno Pizza has also jumped onto the Deadpool & Wolverine bandwagon with their release of four different cross-branded frozen pizzas. I had the Spicy Wolvie Pie, which is a traditional cheese pizza topped with pepperoni, chorizo, and bacon. I didn't find it to be even slightly spicy, but it was very tasty.
Deadpool & Wolverine premiered in theaters on July 25th. I wanted to see it, but there really wasn't any sense of urgency for me. My local Regal theater tends to keep comic book and animated features on their screens for a ridiculous length of time. This is pretty irritating because in doing so, they have blocked a lot of great movies from appearing at my local theater even for a single day, but it also means that when they do release an animated or comic book movie, there is absolutely no rush. I finally got around to seeing it on September 2nd.
I'm not a big enough fan of comic books to have gotten every reference and inside joke, but it was still the funniest comic book movie that I've ever seen. I think that pretty much anyone would enjoy it.
