2025-04-13 22:06:34 +0000 UTCOooo that's so cool! But Death isn't in the MCU movies? Is she in a comic series then?
Chandra
2025-04-13 22:05:30 +0000 UTCHaha not at all! If I can make time, you bet I will!
Chandra
2025-04-13 22:04:15 +0000 UTCOooo thank you for this!! I'm going to check it out for sure... I think reading it before watching the show could be fun, because then I might pick up on more fun details!

2025-04-12 09:06:17 +0000 UTCI'm not a huge fan of this one, but it definitely has one of my favorite examples of delayed payoff in the MCU.

2025-04-11 14:30:52 +0000 UTCYou mentioned looking for comic recommendations and were disappointed to not get more Hawkeye, in which case I definitely recommend one of my favorite comic series: The 2012 Hawkeye series by Matt Fraction and David Aja which ran for about 22 issues. It's widely considered Hawkeye's definitive comic run, and should be super easy to pick up as a collected edition all in one book nowadays. One thing to note though, is that there is an MCU show very loosely based on that run, so you'd need to decided if reading that before getting to the show is something you'd want or not.

2025-04-11 14:29:53 +0000 UTCWhat a fantastic movie. The movies just keep getting better and better from here. And RIP Agent Coulson. Just a suggestion, but you should really start watching Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. after Iron Man 3. You'll learn more about Coulson's past there. I know I'm probably annoying you with this, but it's definitely worth watching this series.

2025-04-11 09:04:12 +0000 UTCI completely agree. It's only the best marvel show ever. I once gave her a list showing the order in which she should watch the series between the movies.

2025-04-11 06:28:50 +0000 UTCIf interested in more Marvel specifically S.H.I.E.L.D stuff I’d recommend watching Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD TV series really good imo

2025-04-10 23:26:23 +0000 UTCSo the end scene guy is Thanos who comes into play much later. "To challenge them is to court death" is a double entendre (No spoiler here) but a story line the movies threw out was that Thanos' primary motivation for what he does later is that he's trying to impress a female character called Death.

2025-04-10 21:19:52 +0000 UTCIt comes from book keeping. A ledger is where you'd keep track of all your business transactions. You'd use black ink to signify income and red to signify debts or payments, so being "in the red" or "having red in your ledger" basically means you're in debt.

2025-04-10 21:17:21 +0000 UTCThis was soo fun. There are tons of little Easter eggs that when you go back and watch after seeing the whole picture. Oh ya, they mentioned that in Avengers in 2012. 😆 Thanks to you and Jordan for watching this stuff with us. MCU, BCS, True Detective, and DUNE 2 next week! Aaah, so much good stuff!

2025-04-10 19:45:45 +0000 UTCJust a couple more things to point out - When Nick recruited Cap, Cap mentioned how when he woke up people told him "we won" but nobody told him what they lost. First thing Cap tells Tony when he wakes up: "We won". Last thing, the waitress at the end that says "Captain America saved my life" was Ashley Johnson who voiced Ellie in The Last of Us games and played Ellie's mom in the show.

2025-04-10 18:34:17 +0000 UTC"Red in my ledger" means basically "blood on my hands". She's killed people that she regrets killing and wants to make amends any way she can. It goes back to what Loki was saying Braton told him about her.

2025-04-10 18:00:24 +0000 UTCFun fact, Robert Downey Jr hid snacks all over the set so when you see him eating in a scene, most likely he actually hid it somewhere 😆
