In the near future, a weary Logan cares for an ailing Professor X at a remote outpost on the Mexican border. His plan to hide from the outside world gets upended when he meets a young mutant who is very much like him. Logan must now protect the girl and battle the dark forces that want to capture her.

Wade Wilson is a former Special Forces operative who now works as a mercenary. His world comes crashing down when evil scientist Ajax tortures, disfigures and transforms him into Deadpool. The rogue experiment leaves Deadpool with accelerated healing powers and a twisted sense of humor. With help from mutant allies Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Deadpool uses his new skills to hunt down the man who nearly destroyed his life.
 
I think logan has better replay value and quality but deadpool was sort of a groundbreaking movie in the superhero genre it paved the way for Rated R super hero movies.
 
Logan is better and it’s not even close. Deadpool is a cheesy “try hard” movie that is entertaining, but is also pretty dumb. One of my least favorite things in a movie is when the characters talk to the audience and Deadpool is full of that, it’s obnoxious and hurts the movie a lot IMO

Tough call. Both are awesome movies. They're also fundamentally different.

Logan is a gritty and darker drama, Deadpool is a comedy. Not really comparable IMO.

A better comparison is GoTG vs Deadpool.
Youu described what I was going to post completely.
Deadpool for me, it's perfect for Ryan's humour. Went on a double date to see that on Valentine's Day. The rewatchability is stronger than Logan. But Logan was great.
 
Both awesome

I prefer Deadpool by a smidge

Both fun and rewatchable
 
I think both are awesome, but both are inherently different. Logan is about a man losing what he knows--the limitless ruperative powers of youth and who we are from those formative experiences--and coming to grips with this loss. In doing so, Logan, interestingly enough, get in touch with his own humanity in a way that could never be afforded by his unfeeling invincibility. In this way, Logan is like a man realizing he is past middle age and coming to some greater realization about the big picture of our existence.

Deadpool is the beginning of that life cycle and discovering one's identity in this big wide world (for Wade, this is a world in which he is a mutant and, and such experiences life in a whole new way). Wade's story is about self-discovery and a journey toward one's potential and what this means for their identity. In this way, Wade--and the humor injected in the film--has a frivolous, cavalier attitude about life, much like a young man, struck with the sense of invincibility, figuring out his limits in the world. Logan has been there done that, and now lost it.

They would be a neat pair to observe as they each sit at opposite ends of a park bench.

What they both have in common is a "new frontier," of sorts,as Logan doesn't t know how to exist in a world where he is slowly crumbling. Literally, everything from which the Logan we know derives his confidence has betrayed him. Wade is finding confidence in new strength.

Both are great, but I'm a sucker for sombre stories about the old dogs who struggle to hold on to what they have, so ai'm going to back Logan on this one.
