Please read the guidelines for collections here; Once Upon a Deadpool should not be included.

Yes, I read the guidelines. Once Upon a Deadpool definitely applies. It was shown in theaters and is an official, re-edited version of Deadpool 2 with new scenes added. If the original Deadpool 2 is included, then this should be too.

And how does that make it a sequel to Deadpool 2?

Because Deadpool 2 is a sequel to Deadpool, and this is just Deadpool 2 cleaned up. In the movie itself, the main character says, "You're in a PG-13 version of Deadpool 2" to a kidnapped Fred Savage. The two films are 90% the same content.

Exactly. It's an alternative version. Not a sequel in any way, shape or form.

It IS a sequel... but not to Deadpool 2 It is a possible and completely valid sequel to Deadpool if you want to avoid the more adult version.

No, it's not really an "alternative" version. It's a true sequel since the new scenes take place after Deadpool 2 and there are "flashbacks" to Deadpool 2 that make up much of the movie (just as other sequels have flashback scenes when characters refer to it). Once Upon a Deadpool doesn't make any sense (and loses much of its humor) without Deadpool 2 existing previously within the narrative of this movie. Even if you haven't seen Deadpool 2, you have to know it exists prior to this or you won't get the jokes.
