Now, y’see, if they’d said THAT, we’d think it was like that other Kenneth Branagh Shakespeare-BTS film we didn’t see, and give it a look.

That’s the one where Thor and Donald Blake argue like an old married couple, and Blake threatens to put Thor back into the hammer like Major Nelson with Jeannie, right?
(Caught Stan Lee at a comic con a few months after, who joked “How many here suspect that might not have exactly been OUR Thor?…”)

Most of Trump’s promises of gutting government agencies sooner or later promise giving thousands of dollars back to the people personally.

Unfortunately, the post-Captain Marvel current K’tshh-k’tshh MCU isn’t gone yet, as we can see from Lifetime Network’s “Fantastic Four: One Mother’s Journey”.
