Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

Bring in Blade, Werewolf by Night, and maybe a few others. They can be the Nocturnals.
One Strip! One Strip!
X4 What? No it was....

Fine. Then instead, have them fight during the day as the Diurnals.
Lets see someone take that one.
One Strip! One Strip!Marvel tend to make unorthodox director choices, and so far it's worked out for them.
Ukrainian Red CrossWell, according to Kevin Feige in Reddit AMA(found here
):
I think the Word of God of the Endgame writers is that Steve always could move it but didn't in that moment, since he didn't want to hurt Thor's feelings. Or something like that.
However, in AOU itself, it seemed reasonably clear that Whedon didn't see Steve as worthy (he never really came across as being the biggest fan of the character) and also wanted to set up Vision being shown as trustworthy since he could lift the hammer easily.
Edit - Like IMO, in AOU, the point seems to be that neither Tony or Steve are worthy (although maybe Steve is slightly less unworthy), and so Steve is being santimonious/doesn't have the moral high ground.
I personally kind of like the theory that basically no one was worthy at that moment, since they were trying to lift it as a parlor trick.
Also, I don't know how much this played a part in Whedon's writing, but it doesn't necessarily make for a good dramatic moment if the party is when Cap or someone else is able to lift the hammer. It makes more sense to save that for a dramatic moment.
