aha! Here's a clip of it. Imagine ... you're out, looking for a horse stud, and Chris Hemsworth wanders by.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
You know what? Endgame is horribly horribly depressing. It's narratively satisfying (EXCEPT FOR NAT), and I love Fat Hero Thor, and I love Steve wielding Mjolnir, but the movie is so fucking depressing.
(I had to check the internet connection on the Roku and then I clicked on Disney Plus, and here we are.) (I shoulda watched Hamilton instead.)
t edit Okay, I'm watching to the end, and when T'Challa walked out of the portal, I started crying. Fuck cancer, man.

I got Disney Plus at the beginning of the year, and while I appreciated Hamilton I'm mostly using it to watch Winter Soldier over and over again. I've also rewatched several of the other movies, but whenever I see Endgame on the list I just can't bring myself to click on it.

Side note: I've never seen the end of Endgame.
Matilda and I went to see it in the theater and the projector broke down with ten minutes remaining. So no funerals, no Steve sent back in time to Peggy.
We did get four free tickets to other movies out of it.

But you saw them beat Thanos, right? (Spoilers?) Cause, yeah, you're good. I found the time with Peggy lovely when I saw it, but in retrospect it lost its loveliness as I considered the implications.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
but in retrospect it lost its loveliness as I considered the implications.
If you're talking the whole "Steve just let 9/11 happen" thing I have my fingers in my ears and LALALALALALALAICAN'THEARYOU!!
I'm going with the Alternate Timeline theory that the movie sets up. Steve went and gave back all the Stones but one... probably the Time Stone. Then he lives this great life with Peggy where they ran SHIELD and saved Bucky and, hell, maybe even hauled his double's ass out of the ice and it was SUPER AWESOME. And after Peggy died he put on the Quantum Suit, dropped the Time Stone with Bald Tilda Swinton, and went to sit on a bench and wait for Sam.

Oh gosh no, 9/11 hadn't occurred to me. Oh, if we're thinking tragic events... where would you start? Let alone stop? The main problem is I have to figure out how the hell timelines work. If he can show up in this one, then he can't have changed very much - which means he DIDN'T save Bucky, or prevent Hydra from whatever. He just um... went back to Peggy and then hid for seventy years? Or else he's hopping timelines, which okay but... Well. It makes me run in circles trying to figure it out.

9/11, Rwandan Genocide, Rohinga genocide, the famines in China caused by Mao's policies (memfault on the name), Vietnam war, Ebola outbreaks, Syrian civil war... I mean, there's a LOT.
I would rather Steve didn't go back in time because either he lets all that shit happen and he's not Steve Rogers, or he dies trying to stop them (and fails anyway).
