Stupidity: When Wolverine is trying to prevent Deadpool from sacrificing himself by destroying the time ripper device, he repeatedly pounds his fists against the glass panel on the door to break it, to no avail, which leads him to then go to another heavy door, which he is only able to break down in the nick of time. Wolverine's adamantium claws would have easily destroyed the glass on the other door, without him having to repeatedly and futilely punch it.

Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)
1 stupidity
Directed by: Shawn Levy
Starring: Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, Matthew Macfadyen
Continuity mistake: When Deadpool is talking to Wolverine's skeleton, in one shot the skeleton's mouth is closed, but in the next shot it is open.
Deadpool: Want to talk about what's haunting you, or should we wait for a third act flashback?
Trivia: Marvel Studios' president Kevin Feige initially advised Hugh Jackman not to return to the role of Wolverine, as he felt Logan was the perfect sendoff for his portrayal of the character.
Question: Deadpool knows that he is in a film, which explains why he can easily recognise everyone, including Wolverine, X-23, Johnny Storm, Blade, Ant-Man, Sabretooth, Juggernaut, and even the actors playing them. So why didn't he recognise Elektra? Jennifer Garner's popularity alone should have made it easy for him.

Answer: Part of the novelty of knowing that he's in a film means servicing the plot, especially as a proxy for those audience members who may not be as familiar with some characters. Deadpool also does seem to know who Elektra is, as he apologises to her upon hearing about Daredevil's death, even though he just met her moments earlier.
