Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
You jest, but Squirrel Girl done right would make them a lot of money.
And yeah, she beat Thanos in the comics so it's canon friendly!

So... allow me to be the first complaint, however minor, about this thread.
Up on the first post, it says this:
Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Brie Larson, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Josh Brolin, Don Cheadle, Paul Rudd, Bradley Cooper, Karen Gillan, Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Holland, Samuel L. Jackson, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Pom Klementieff, Vin Diesel, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Evangeline Lilly, Chadwick Boseman, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Tom Hiddleston, Frank Grillo, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jon Favreau, Tilda Swinton, Michael Douglas, Michelle Pfeiffer, Cobie Smulders, Stan Lee, 真田広之, Terry Notary, Sean Gunn, Renah Gallagher, Benjamin Weaver, Michael A. Cook, Katherine Langford, Tristan Mamasakhlisashvili
Why the fuck is Brie Larson before so many other characters that have actually been a part of this movie franchise thus far? She should be almost last, as she'll have only been in 2 movies when this airs.

I didn't realise that cast lists were based on time spent in the entire franchise and not their screentime in the actual movie.

Ok, fine. It may be screentime. In which case, I still reject that list. Scarlett Johansson has been in so many scenes over these 10 years. How could she possibly be behind Brie? Hell, Paul Rudd for that matter. He had 2 movies, a decent sized cameo in Civil War, and he's going to play a part in this. How is Brie ahead of him?

Because Black Widow is a supporting-character at best. The only way to fully utilize her character doesn't mesh with Marvel movies and is too low-power for this sort of stuff. Captain Marvel is being built up to lead everything. She's the next big thing for when RDJ/Hemsworth/Evans and others fuck off. It's her turn™, don't you know?

Cast lists are organized in many different ways. Contracts with the actors can have a lot to do with it.

I'm fully expecting Nebula to fuck off on her own. She doesn't even know Stark, literally zero interaction other than her one line after the dusting.

I mean to be fair we all knew it'd have basically the entire cast in it in some way or other regardless of death or dusting in IW. The resolution almost certainly involves some time stone shenanigans, if not full gauntlet reversal.
But I didn't notice Swinton at first glance, that's interesting, good call.

Potential flashbacks always nix this sort of concern when looking at cast lists.

It’s hard to be excited for this. I know it will be good at the same I also know I am going to be annoyed by whatever contrived nonsense they come up wth to reverse everything.
A universe where everyone on earth knows there are beings out there that erase half the population with a snap if the fingers is not happening. The whole snap is going to be retconned out of existence by what ever Captain Marvel and her assembled team of earths mightiest heroes do to avenge the losses in the first place.
Like I said, I know it’s going to be entertaining yet at the same time I have had my doubts about the possible directions they could go with his.
