That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
For those of you who like Alex Jones schadenfreude, on knowledge fight, one of the attorneys for the Sandy Hook parents (Mark Bankston) revealed that the fees and sanctions he had to pay to the plaintiffs and their law firm for loving around will more than pay for the cost of the law firm to handle the trial.

The shady globalist minions and operatives who are funding the lawsuits against him are coming from inside the house

My morning:

Eric Wareheim released a video collab with T-Pain yesterday

Huh, he also directed the Major Lazer Bubble Butt video.

Oh he also did a weird song about the show Benson

Huh, Seinfeld was on Benson as a lovely stand up comedian who got fired after 3 episodes.

So productive Monday as you can see.

Does it really make her actions make sense, though, or is it just a hasty postscript to paper over the glaring inconsistency between the her arc in the show and where they now know the movie is going?

It makes me wonder what keeping up with the continuity will look like when these movies are inevitably still coming out in a decade. Like if my kid wants to get into the MCU and can't be persuaded otherwise, what is going to have to watch so that he doesn't come to me with questions after every movie? Will the decade that Marvel spent making Inifity Saga films just not be important anymore for understanding the movies being released in the future?

Considering you'd be clueless watching Dr. Strange 2 if you hadn't seen the first one, they're a ways off from cleanly cutting off the Infinity saga. I think the multi-verse stuff will eventually come to a head and then they'll reboot the whole thing. This way they can bring back Ironman or Captain America in 10 years or so.

Isn't the multiverse basically an evergreen route to resurrecting or recasting whoever they want as needed, indefinitely, while still maintaining precious continuity?

Pretty much. No character ever truly dies, we just move on to Earth-42069 and start over again.

No, I believe the whole point is that when you dreamwalk you're basically bonding over that person but your view of it makes more sense to me than his explanation. But honestly Im not entirely sure nor do I care to research it beyond whatever Raimi said

I think you greatly over estimate how important continuity knowledge is to kids when they want to see something cool.

Yeah, it pretty much never sticks around, because someone takes over the comic and reverts it to how it was when they were a kid.

If you start watching a serialized show or soap opera in the middle of the series, you will indeed eventually figure out enough to understand what's going on even if you don't catch every reference to what came before. Streaming has kind of rewired people with a need to "catch up", but this is how people used to consume television, and the MCU is extremely television-brained.
