PLOT TWIST: Denzel Whitaker is not actually Forrest's son, wtf. [link]
Marvel Universe: Infinite Chrises
Discussion of all Marvel Cinematic Universe related movies and TV shows, including, but not limited to, the Avengers, Captain America, Agent Carter, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Daredevil, Spider-Man, Ant-Man, etc., etc., etc. ad-infinitum.
Discussion of non-MCU Marvel titles like the X-Men or the Fantastic Four is also permitted. Ties to comics may be discussed, but this is not the primary forum for comics discussion (see the Other Media thread).
Spoiler policy: For broadcast TV shows, blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast. For movies and Internet streaming shows, whitefont all plot-related discussion until it's been in wide release two weeks. Posters are encouraged to preface their posts to indicate the subject, particulary if switching subjects.
Yeah, for young T'Chaka, for a couple of minutes I was wondering John Kani (the actor for old T'Chaka) got the de-aging technique that made Michael Douglas look so fucking creepy in the flashback in Ant-Man.
This is amusing. [link]
Infinity War's release date has been pushed up a week: [link]
Does Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. have any pretense at all any more of being in the movie universe? You would think that Tony or someone would notice if Phil Coulson were at the top of the Most Wanted List.
Well, the rest of the Avengers should have noticed Tony threatening a world-level terrorist and getting his house blown off a cliff, so there's a whole lot of "Eh, I'm busy" going on in the MCU.
I mean, Thor could conceivably have been off-planet throughout, and the rest of the Avengers wouldn't have been able to keep up with all the cross-continental flight involved. Though I do wish they'd had a cameo of Captain America rolling up at the site of the US President's televised execution on a motorcycle just in time to find out the problem had been taken care of.
"Oh, thank you, Captain Rogers, but Iron Man took care of everything."
We'll always have fic.

Not to mention that if Coulson is at the top of the Most Wanted list and every police department in the country has his picture, then he's also, you know, ALIVE, which at one point was a pretty important secret even within the boundaries of the show.
I wouldn't be surprised if something in the finale related in some way to Infinity Wars.
Yeah, "Phil is alive" has to be kind of like "Luke, I am your father" in terms of shocking information by now.
