Since they've already time traveled, they're probably in an alternate timeline, anyway.
Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yeah, I don't like that at all. Also, I don't seem to care about anything that is happening in this episode.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Thoughts after rewatching Endgame:
I'm quite convinced of a theory I read here and elsewhere after rewatching that Captain America knew exactly what he was going to do when he left at the end and that he had worked it all out with Bucky and probably Doctor Strange's help so that he wouldn't mess up the timeline somehow. Bucky obviously knew what was going to happen when Cap left and wasn't surprised by any of it.
I didn't cry nearly as much, and I laughed a lot more because I wasn't sitting there panicking about what was going to happen to everyone. I still cried when Tony died and again at the funeral.
I still missed Howard the Duck despite the fact that I was looking for him.
I'm annoyed that Peggy didn't have any actual dialogue in the past. I would have liked an overheard conversation between her and Howard and/or Jarvis.
I caught the scenes that I missed when I had to run to the bathroom the first time and instead left as soon as they were looking at the invasion of NY from the first film. I had totally missed New Asgard the first time as well as Valkyrie's earlier part in the film. So, I was confused what New Asgard was, and why Valkyrie was being put in charge of it.
Thor's storyline wasn't as annoying for me the second time around. I really picked up more of the emphasis on depression and less of the emphasis on weight, maybe because there weren't any giggling teenagers in the audience this time. I still think they could have done the whole thing without the stomach; it would have still worked with the beard and greasy hair and slounge wear.
I love that the film emphasized not once but twice that Peter Quill is nothing special.
I was even more blown away by Karen Gillan's performance. She really managed to make both Nebulas quite distinctive.
That's all that I can think of that stood out for me on second viewing. I may have more thoughts later.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It was too rainy to hike we we took my parents to see Endgame.
About Steve on the bench at the end of the movie...so, was he sitting there the whole time, having taken the long way round back to 2023? I like to think that he was.
I disliked the girl power moment even more this time. The first viewing, it didn't really ping me that they were all lining up to help Captain Marvel carry the gauntlet - an object she can lift easily with one hand - about the length of a baseball diamond, which surely the most powerful person in this superhero universe doesn't actually need help with? I mean, how patronizing can you get???
Nebula is still the best.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
One thing I really like about Nebula -- she doesn't need/have a male love interest.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I really enjoyed Lebowski!Thor, particularly that he could be paunchy and the butt of jokes and still be a hero. Thor and Frigga was a big crypoint for me.
Captain Marvel costuming note: Viers in her Kreecolors reminded me an awful lot of Hela. Beware of people wearing black and green, I guess.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I understand that someone has put out a version of Avengers:Endgame with all the icky women, POC and LGBT+ bits removed. Seemingly, it doesn't shorten it as much as you'd think.

What LGBT+ bits? Honestly, I can't think of anything.
