Well said. Great movie.

And now I'm wondering how Cap put the Aether/Reality Stone back in Jane and suddenly we could have our first MCU porno as well...

Interesting. Seems like a miss because they clearly show her dead and never show her again. Also, where did Pegasus come from?rhutton125 said:
Some of the Asgardians (maybe half?) made it off the ship in IW. Unfortunately, this could only have been known by director comments after IW. I guess Thor and the others bought time for some escape pods to get away, or something.
It seems to me like they said Spiderman FFH is the final movie of this phase, and then comes the next phase. BW is part of the next phase so I don't see it carrying anything over from this one, therefore a prequel.TCTTS said:

I noticed this go-around how many times various characters underlined that Nat's gone for good. Even Banner says he tried to bring her back with his snap, but no dice. It was almost suspicious, though, how much they kept repeating that. To the point where it got me thinking, is there anyway that's part of the plot of the Black Widow movie next year? It still feels super weird to me that Marvel is kicking off Phase Four with what everyone (myself included) is assuming is a Black Widow prequel movie. It begins filming next month, and thus will be the first Phase Four movie to begin production, so it's all but confirmed that it's the May 2020 release, and thus will be the first Phase Four movie to be released. But why start that phase with a "flashback" movie that will likely take place sometime pre/during Phase One? Honestly, I'd rather Nat stay dead, so deaths truly do mean something in this world, but not everything seems to be adding up, and I'm wondering if Cap returning the Soul Stone has any potential bearing on that?

I want to see that as well. Also, I want to see him react to music post 1985 whatever year he left.
Yeah, upon further reading I see that. I had it in my mind that they showed her lying amongst all the other dead folks in the opening scene of IW. I just rewatched on YouTube but can't really see anything. So, it's more of a continuity issue than anything. She must have just left between Ragnarok and IW.rhutton125 said:
She wasn't shown dead in IW. She's not in it at all. You may be thinking of a random dead Asgardian it pans over.

OTOH, Thor and the GOTG together IS a carryover, so I don't know....

They'd said a while back that maybe Phase 4 would be different than people expect, maybe not even called Phase 4. Maybe from now on they'll do a lot of different stuff.
I think that means things like pure, irrelevant prequels that may not contribute to any overarching Phase 4 plot. One-offs, maybe. A Captain Marvel film in between 1994 and 2019 would fill that same kind of "purpose" (of lack of).
The Black Widow situation is definitely a weird one, but I don't think they have to jump through any hoops to explain why it exists. They just want to provide some backstory for a character that was with us for 9 years - even if her story is already over.
Not the way I would have done it, but oh well. There are a lot weirder ideas out there (DC's Joker or Trench spin-offs, for example, or Sony's rumored Aunt May prequel for the now defunct ASM universe).
