Good one!
Although I do think it's cute that the author refers to Chris Hemsworth as "starring" in Star Trek and Ghostbusters.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm not impressed with a plot where you have to explain after the fact that they were in another time line to explain plot holes. I guess the Ancient One set it up when she was talking to Bruce. The only time travel story I've ever enjoyed was Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I really hope the Black Widow movie (assuming it's still happening) is just 2 hours of Natasha's ghost haunting all the remaining Avengers for not giving her a funeral.

Re Steph's movie idea: She could hang with the ghost of Quicksilver who can bitch for two hours about never being mentioned since Ultron.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Connie, the time travel adventure I most enjoyed was the Doctor Who adventure City of Death.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Things I noticed on rewatch:
I caught sight of M'Baku charging with the other characters from Wakanda.
When Tony makes the decision to take the stones from Thanos, he looks over at Strange, and Strange holds up his finger. This is the one way out of 14 million.
Tony's arc is from self-centerdness to self-sacrifice. Cap's is from shouldering all of the burdens to allowing other people to do the things that need to be done.
When he stands up to Thanos and his armies with a broken shield, ready to die, and everyone appears to back him up, T'Challa nods at him. They got this. He doesn't have to be the only one, like he was the only one who could stop Red Skull, the only one who could rescue Bucky in TFA, the only one who could get through to the Winter Soldier, who could stop Tony from killing Bucky.
He looks so tired and lost when he sees Peggy in 1970, but it's okay for him to go and be selfish and have that life he sacrificed.

When Tony
So, I re-watched Infinity War last night, and when Strange tells Tony there's only 1 future where they win, now I understand Strange's hesitation before he answers. Because he knew the only way to win is for Tony to die.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Strange said to Tony something like, "If I tell you what's going to happen, it can't happen." I was pretty sure then that Tony was going to die .

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
You guys are giving me all the feels again. Especially Dana's description of the character arcs. Stop it (don't stop)!

When I realized that Tony already had his happy ending, his comfy place with Pepper, the kid named Morgan, and we weren't that far into the movie, it was dread all the rest of the way.
