Deadpool & Wolverine is a movie dense with cameos, and I think it's fair to say some were more interesting than others.
There are plenty of fun secrets to discover in the latest Marvel movie, and some genuinely well-done surprises.
But there's one moment in Deadpool & Wolverine that has left some fans scratching their heads. Fortunately, we now have an answer... kind of.

Towards the beginning of the movie we see Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) abducted by the TVA before being shown a huge chunk of footage from previous MCU movies.
We see The Avengers in action over the years, but Deadpool is more interested in why there's a TV screen showing Thor (Chris Hemsworth) holding Deadpool's broken body with tears in his eyes.
Mr Paradox, the shady TVA agent, quickly dismisses this moment as something from the future. But Deadpool, and viewers everywhere, are still desperate to know why Thor was crying.
Reynolds himself recently explained: "I know why Thor was crying. I can't unknow it."

While this doesn't really shed much more light on the situation, it does at least imply the future isn't too bright for Deadpool. Perhaps Doctor Doom will shut him up for good in Avengers: Doomsday?
It's also worth noting that Deadpool's broken body being cradled by Thor is a direct reference to Thor: The Dark World. That's where they got the footage of Hemsworth from in the first place, lest you think they got him in for that brief cameo.
Maybe the God of Thunder is just crying at having to remember one of the worst MCU movies ever made? Or maybe the whole thing was just a dumb joke and Reynolds is messing with us.
One thing I can say for (not) sure: we'll find out one way or the other in Avengers: Doomsday. Or not.
