"BuffyBot" ,'Dirty Girls'
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.
Cumbermuffin continues to be miscast. Elizabeth Olsen, on the other hand, is a fucking powerhouse.
Agree on both points. (She's honestly too good an actress for the MCU.)
I think both post-credits scenes are pretty skippable - the first one is a Hey Look What Might Be The Next Movie bit, but it's not interesting on its own. (The second one is just a gag.)
Was so early to my showing that I have already seen the second post credit scene. Oops. ION, apparently sitting next to strangers is allowed again.
That was indeed fun! And I am pleased, and a little surprised, that I was not spoiled for any of it, really
I managed to stay really unspoiled for Dr. Strange, which made those parts fun, but I realize I just fundamentally don't care about his whole Thing.
Someone else in the theater after said, "It's giving Everything Everywhere All At Once" and that movie may have spoiled me for multiverses, tbh.
My emotional involvement with Dr Strange is pretty much nonexistent. If I start thinking about the implications of some of those multiverses it’ll irritate me, so I don’t. I might want to see Everything Everwhere again, though, now that you mention it!
What I have gotten out of those two movies is an occasional, "Oh, that looks cool," occasional chuckles, a reinforced love of Elizabeth Olsen, a conviction that Cumberbatch and McAdams have no chemistry, and an appreciation of the sentient cape.
Also, the surprise cameos were cool, because I knew who those people were and it made me feel smart.
What is the difference between a cape and a cloak, anyway? I know I could look it up but I feel certain I have looked it up before and have a vague sense that the results were unsatisfactory in some way.
Maybe a cloak has a neck?
I looked it up again. Cloaks are longer, below the knee; capes are shorter, just to waist or mid thigh. I will not retain this knowledge.
I thought it had something to do with the hood or neck or something.
Upon reflection, I think the difference *should* be that capes are for making you look good and cloaks are for keeping you warm and/or hidden.
