Discussion of all Marvel Cinematic Universe related movies and TV shows, including, but not limited to, the Avengers, Captain America, Agent Carter, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Daredevil, Spider-Man, Ant-Man, etc., etc., etc. ad-infinitum.
Discussion of non-MCU Marvel titles like the X-Men or the Fantastic Four is also permitted. Ties to comics may be discussed, but this is not the primary forum for comics discussion (see the Other Media thread).
Spoiler policy: For broadcast TV shows, blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast. For movies and Internet streaming shows, whitefont all plot-related discussion until it's been in wide release two weeks. Posters are encouraged to preface their posts to indicate the subject, particulary if switching subjects.
Consuela, I agree, they seem to be implying that dustees were privileged over survivors, which is interesting.
Watching YouTube breakdowns (in the absence of live humans to discuss this with) I've discovered that a disease-based subplot was erased once the pandemic started, and both
Mama Donya and Nagel
scenes were erased/altered because of that. Maybe that's part of what made this episode feel off. On the whole I judge work based on what I see, not what was behind the scenes, but it makes me feel better to know there may actually have been a reason.
Um... possibly spoilery for something no longer in the show? Anti-spoilery?
"the earliest of plot leaks and speculation all shared in common the idea of some kind of device unleashing a pandemic across the populace ... Disney could be trying to get ahead of a potential disaster with rewriting and reshooting some of the series, with a heavy emphasis on the first couple episodes."

ETchange italics tag to spoiler tag. Ahem.
Honestly, the very idea of Sam Wilson,
former rescue ops soldier, (basically former) Avenger, blowing his cover because he forgot to put his phone on silent
is just sloppy fucking writing. This is not Three's Company.
And
jaded art thief Sharon Carter
just makes me desperately want a crossover with Leverage.
sloppy fucking writing. This is not Three's Company.
THANK YOU. I am, on the whole, not best pleased with how Sam's storyline & characterization has been handled. I'm continuing to reserve final judgment, but they're on thin fucking ice right now.
Help, please.
I am trying to find a piece of fanfic from several years ago. I thought I had it bookmarked, but can't find it.
It is Avengers fic, set not long after the first Avengers movie. A reporter gets embedded with the Avengers for a few days, to see how they live and work together in Stark tower. The twist at the end is that the reporter is Peter Parker.
Does that ring any bells for anyone?
I mentioned it to a friend, intending to send a link, but now I can't find it.
dcp, it's copperbadge's Exclusive.
Oh, man, I love Copperbadge's stuff. I need to read that.
Teppy, it's actually a series!
He's written MCU/Leverage crossovers that I love: [link] and [link] .
