During the freeze-in this week I finally got around to watching Ant Man & The Wasp. I was unprepared for that mid-credits scene. I'd forgotten where it fell in the chronology.

I would like all movies between now and March to be Captain Marvel. Just, all of them.
So I kind of forgot about the rest of the people, and now I want three seasons of The Leftovers in the MCU.
An article on the trailer referred to the end of Infinity War as "The Snappening" which threw me for a loop because I had believed that fandom had settled on the far-superior designation of "The Snapture."
I must admit I hadn't really thought about the effect half the population getting dusted would have on the world at large. I wonder if any of the remaining Avengers tried to explain to the public what happened (and if people would even believe them if they did.)
I think if they did, the take away most people wouldn't be disbelief. It would be, "And you let this happen?..."
I'm not mad at that, but surely they can cut at least 10 minutes of the climactic battle?
I'd suggest they start with any footage of Banner's head copy/pasted over Iron Man suits, or arguing with his alter ego.
The trailers suggest we'll need about five minutes of tragic moping per character before we get to the action, and even after Snappageddon that's still a solid handful of people.
Marvel's website for Captain Marvel is fucking GENIUS: [link]
