I've always been better at reading than listening but somehow I always had Parisian teachers, despite living in Canada.
Now that I think about it, there are a lot of deaths-that-weren't-really-deaths. I mean, even Rumlow survives (I assume he was the badly burned person they wheel in). Hmm. That makes me feel a lot better. During Thor:TDW my thought process was basically "if Loki is dead I'm ragequitting" but Fury is a more fringe character and I thought they might milk the restructuring/leaderless angle of Fury's death.
Right, but I thought that just meant that it'd somehow been dropped there? Though on the other hand, I can't see the guy servicing the machine going "hm, someone dropped a thumb drive into my stock-up supplies? I'll put it in the machine!"
Buckyyy ;___; STEVE ;___; But it looks like Natasha is cheerful about making a new life/new covers! Aww, Natasha.
I think Fury is accustomed to thinking about seven steps ahead of everyone at all time. It's probably why he's still alive at this point. Most of the agents are quite young.
Yes! Honestly, CA:TWS is actually what I'd consider the darkest of the movies--along with perhaps IM--but manages to be pretty upbeat despite it. One of the really topical subjects is terrorism and the role of government and the meaning of security/freedom and just general uncertainty or fear. And that's reflected in TWS and also, I think, in both IM1 and IM3 (I think of the soldiers' apparent suicidal self-destruction, which everyone believes readily). But both IM and CA have lots of humour and a more balanced way of looking at things, I think, instead of just saying "modern society sucks".
