This Trailer is the best look at the series yet, but it's making me really wish that I'd thought to rewatch Age of Ultron as part of my Prep for the show.
I might try to get it in either this weekend or next weekend. If not then I did actually read up on Ultron this morning. Still, Age of Ultron came out 11 years ago. It's been quite a while.

As for the trailer, this looks really good.
 
Ah, you are also watching our military bestie? XD
Basic Wit I don’t know, but my watch list full enough with reactors atm. :)
Oh! Also Camilla's Corner and LucyJRobyn! :lol:

I watch a lot of MCU reactors. Have a lot of time in my hands right now. :(

Camilla is a fairly new reactor in general, and just did Age of Ultron a few weeks ago. Lucy is trying to catch up on the MCU so she can watch Doomsday in the theater. I guess I can respect that, but following her journey the entire way and then not seeing her reaction to Doomsday will be a disappointment.
 
For those who haven't seen WandaVision, it seems as Marvel is apparently posting the entire first season on youtube. The first three episodes have gone up in the last couple of hours. It doesn't really seem likely that they would post some episodes and not the whole thing because VisionQuest is the series they're trying to sell to new subscribers.

Oh, I watch Lucy, too.
Funnily enough I found her channel through her Minecraft Let’sPlay.
Her Marvel reactions are good but sadly she edits them so heavily to avoid copyright issues that sometimes it’s just her face without any sound or even picture at all.
 
Every since I watched Infinity War the first time, I've always think of "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson, but while watching the film tonight (in preparation for Endgame: Encore tomorrow!), I found myself thinking of "The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas" by Ursula K. Le Guin. The thought came to mind during Thanos' discussion about sacrifice to young Gamora, and while it's not a straight reference, I found the thematic undertones strikingly similar in the moment.

Or maybe it's just because I have Le Guin in my head because I'm reading Lavinia right now.
 
Speaking of which, I just finished watching  Encore and here are the additional scenes:

Nothing is added until the very end when Steve and Peggy's dance is seamlessly interrupted by a knock on the door. Peggy answers the door while Steve hides around the corner. At first, the visitor is obscured as Peggy greets them and asks them how she can help them. The person says, as they cross the threshold that he, Loki, is here to help them, much to Steve's bafflement.

The second scene is after the signature credits and initially is depicted through a series of security cameras of an underground tunnel leading to a sealed cell with a sigular occupant: Bruce. The footage cuts to Bruce narrating via a camcorder, explaining how he has voluntarily placed himself under isolation two miles undeground after losing control for the first time in a decade (I think that's what he said). Bruce says this new undisclosed location will prevent the Hulk from escaping...and no one can get to him either. It's unclear who he's narrating to but he quickly gets to the point that he thinks he has found a new, promising serum. Just before he can go into details, there are multiple power surges, quickly followed by off-camera chaos. Bruce says "That's impossible!" and then a guard yells "Who are you?" Doom responds by saying "I've come to collect you." The footage shimmers before revealing large green runes glowing in the dark.

The final scene also seamlessly transitions from old to new footage, this time from Tony's hammering that then shows several flashes of imagery, replicating the cave scene...but this time we see Doom's mask.

All in all, nothing crucial but they are fun additions nonetheless. I have no regrets because it was so damn awesome to watch Endgame on the big screen again agter seven years. I just wish I could've paired it with Infinity War.
