Ah. I stopped reading monthly comics right around the time Bucky became Cap, so I never got to Falcon being Cap.


Switching gears, it's hilarious how every singe one of these Marvel movies are loaded with fan service shots, but as soon as one is focused on women these guys suddenly lose their shit over it!

Just got back from seeing it tonight, the family and I loved it, a fitting ending to the first MCU saga. I'm still digesting this, and have read everyone's posts above (so I don't have to ask who that kid was at Tony's funeral, I now know that he was from IM3, I don't need to edit my post later ) but just wanted to make a few points for now:

-man, the Captain America/Mjolnir scene and Scarlet Witch almost kicking Thanos' ass was awesome!

-Stan Lee looked ok in his cameo, I've seen photos of him from the early 70's, and this look wasn't that far off the mark IMO

-speaking of Stan, I was under the impression that there are still several cameos of him in the can for future use. When they realized how bad he was getting, I heard that they shot a bunch of stuff that they could re-purpose into future cameos. Or is this just a rumor? I could have sworn that Kevin Smith said that, and he has a bit of an inside scoop (as much as was allowed anyway)

-The Avengers will certainly continue, even if the members are drastically different. Shit, the original comic was less than two years old when everyone left except Cap and new members were brought in (Hawkeye, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch) and this was back in issue number 16 from 1965, so near complete team member swapping was introduced into the concept almost from the start.

-some commented on how Captain Marvel looked a bit different compared to her own film (other than just the short hair, which was probably a wig/CGI combo anyway), don't forget that her scenes in Endgame were shot before CM, and there was very likely a different makeup team involved.

-Spider-man: Far from Home is supposed to take place literally minutes after Endgame, if I'm not mistaken

-I'm not that jazzed about The Eternals, I never read it, and the only Eternal I really know is Thanos himself, but I have to admit it will be nice going into a Marvel movie almost completely cold, without knowing any of the characters or story. On the other hand, I'm looking forward to seeing the more cosmic aspect of the MCU. I can't wait for Adam Warlock to show up (has he still been sitting there inside his cocoon since the end of GOTG 2?)

That's it for now, except that end battle was insane!

Cap still has the better ass.

Now I need a 4th Cap movie of him returning all the stones, especially his encounter with Red Skull when he returns the Soul stone.

Sooooo, don't think this was brought up yet but what was the deal with Thanos and little Gamora at the end of Infinity War. I mean, didn't people feel that eluded to him actually going into Soul World. As there was no real pay off to that scene I suppose we're now to assume it was just pulling internally into Thanos' thoughts?

As it, it was jarring in Infinity War but figured it would have some context in the next film but now, well, just jarring.

This seems to be bugging people but it's feasible that in the amount of time he was away he could have snagged a jet...or, he did have the hammer with him and can wield it so maybe he just flew around space. The fact that it isn't shown leads, of course, to a lot of questions but I really feel this one is as simple as when Widow and Hawkeye went to the same places or Thor/Rocket went to Asgard. I mean, in that regard, the machine transported them not to the location they left in (ala Back to the Future) but to where / when they wanted to go. Cap could have just dialed in the places, popped on down, dropped the stones into place, and voila.

Of course, the Teseract is a bit of an X-Factor here as Loki took it in the one timeline so they had to go father back. Does Loki taking it in the skewered timeline now mean some things in Captain Marvel didn't happen? Does Cap return that to the 1970s or back to before Loki took it meaning there's two of them in 2000s NYC.

You know, best not think about these too deeply and keep it safely inside Goose.

If you would've said to me ten years ago that we'd get an Avengers movie where Spider-Man swings from Mjolnir thrown by Cap, while holding an Iron Man gauntlet containing all 5 Infinity Stones, and then hops on a Pegasus with Valkyrie... I would've said you're out of your fucking mind!

Mr. Flix

It wasn't the content of the shot that was the issue, but how it was handled. There was no reason storywise for those women to suddenly assemble like that. Give the girls their due, yes, but find a less obvious/clunky way to do it. My point is if you're going to do a girl power moment, do it BETTER than that.

Mr. Flix

I give it a pass simply because it allowed her to be there when Tony died. It would've stunk for him to die without her present.

Once the newness of this wears off and everyone gets over Tony and Steve, more people will come around to your way of seeing things. With all the time travel paradoxes, this movie comes off like a mess.

Hey, um, so who's kids are these?



Because if they're not Steve's, then he's a mini-Thanos going back in time and erasing them from existence by getting with Peggy and keeping her from whoever those kids' dad was.

If those are Steve's kids, then that means he's been there the whole time, and didn't necessarily create a new timeline by going back.

Now you're just looking for issues. Both of these things were pretty obvious for most.
