Deb, it looked to me like she pushed off the cliff and yanked hr arm out of his grip.
Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Huh. I'll have to keep an eye out when I re-watch because that is not what I came away with.
Side-note: "Debet", please. Deb is someone else.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Emily, I had the same geometrical complaint.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
Okay, Debet, that's a possibility. Although indeed the whole bit leading up to that with each of them trying to jump off wouldn't seem to count, which would be kind of a let-down. "So... I have some bad news and some other bad news about our mission."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And I really liked Black Widow's hair. That's absolutely not a spoiler, I just liked it both ways.
It took the internet to tell me this, but of course the red is Natasha's natural color, which she had just grown out for five years.

See, Jesse, I figured that, and I liked that it told a story through hair! Because yeah, I can see Nat not feeling like doing all the playing with color she'd been doing before. Girl is seriously depressed.

Would it take five years to grow out to that length? I've never tracked my hair. I do like the way it looks, especially braided.
Also the scenes of her shooting and punching the bag weren't in the movie, were they? I don't remember them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
In general, I'm dissatisfied with the Soul Stone in both movies. My suspension of disbelief is pretty damn good, but that whole thing is just stupid. What does it even do? Time, Reality, Power, Mind, Space, I'm with you. Soul is just this nebulous thing that only serves to advance the plot by killing off characters.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The girl power moment didn't work for me either. Mostly it just highlighted how little they'd been given to do in the battle up until that point.
I did appreciate Captain Marvel telling everyone "You know I've been keeping the entire REST OF THE FREAKING UNIVERSE TOGETHER while you've all been sitting here worrying about one planet???"
I'm willing to accept that if you go back into your own past, you don't change what's already happened in your own past because SURE WHY NOT. But if 2014 Thanos travels to the future and dies, then who in that timeline was collecting stones leading up to the Snapture in the first place? (Obviously the answer is Because Shut Up That's Why but that's the one timey-wimey bit I can't handwave.)
I really loved Nebula's arc. She's come so far.
I thought the callbacks to previous movies via time-travel shenanigans were really very well done, and a nice endnote to the whole arc. Fanservice at its best.
