Spoiler-free bullet points
+ *chef's kiss*
+ I really despise American Pie (the song). The movie gets a pass - this one time - because they way it's used was really damn sweet.
+ specifically to the credit tag: WTF? PLEASE MAKE THAT CHARACTER GO AWAY FORVER??
+ I heart Yelana. So hard.
+ That Ultron throwback conversation: DOUBLE *chef's kiss*
There were TOO MANY PEOPLE in the theater. But it was too late to turn back (I bought my ticket like a week ago, when the place was empty). I ended up switching seats because two ladies managed to get a seat on either side of me, and I didn't want to make them stay separated. They were a hoot, too.
The one informed me she was a Day One Trekkie and hadn't seen Civil War or Endgame -- there's that one key plot point from Endgame that kinda sorta has a direct effect on Natasha that shocked both of them A LOT -- and I was trying to explain to them (because they asked) the watching order once they got home.
I told them to just watch Civil War and then Infinity War/Endgame, because really.. those are the MCUs most relevant to the plot.
The Trekkie was not happy to learn Thor wasn't in Civil War. She really likes Hemsworth.....
Also tried to explain to The Lifeguard the timeline of the movie and he followed it, but was giving me the blank stare as it finally processed. LOL
In case someone askes you:
Civil War airport scene --> Black Widow open (discounting the 90s flashback, of course) --> Black Panther week following Civil War --> Spiderman Homecoming six months after Civil War --> Black Widow --> Civil War credit tag --> Endgame --> Black Widow credit tag
Back to work tomorrow and BLEH. I need Thursday to get here, sooner, because I have bills to pay and the bank account is low.
Anyway.. hope everyone's well! ♥
