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.
One thing I really like about Nebula -- she doesn't need/have a male love interest.
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.
Interesting article on the VFX in CA: The First Avenger. [link]
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.

Masculinity so fragile. That's sad.
Seemingly, it doesn't shorten it as much as you'd think.
And yet that's even sadder.

I'm trying to resist the urge to say "Captain Marvel's haircut." I think it just means that tiny part in the support group at the "5 Years Later" mark.
Oh, right. It didn't even ping me (yay, long delayed enlightenment). I did wonder if it was Carol looking at Thor with benign amusement and not appreciation.
(reliving that giddy moment of "Something's entered the atmosphere!" "Carol's home!"
I haven't seen it, so I can't say.
