The Merc With the Mouth himself, [Ryan Reynolds](http://time.com/4621986/ryan-reynolds-blake-lively-deadpool-anxiety/), took to Twitter early Friday morning to release a “For Your Consideration” video pitch for the Academy Awards. The 30-second montage of movie footage features a dramatic voiceover by Reynolds, who lists all the hilarious things that went into making the antihero flick, including 600 pounds of chimichangas, seven magical unicorns, and three good walls and a fourth that’s broken. Watch the full video below. > [](https://twitter.com/VancityReynolds/status/819750725651611650) UPDATE: After _Deadpool_ ultimately [failed to snag an Oscar nomination](http://time.com/4645144/deadpool-suicide-squad-oscars/?iid=sr-link1), Reynolds again took to Twitter to express his alternative plans for the evening in a typically funny and gracious manner.
