Uhhh, that post actually wasn't up when we recorded this. Thought it was funny when I saw it later that day.
Talking about the meme with Cobie Smulders, I'm pretty sure that's a nod to her character Robin Scherbatsky. It's not really clear if you knew that or not just from listening to this.
From what Joss Wheadon has said about an Avengers Sequel the intent would be to have a more personal feel and not be on the same epic scale. To me this means that the Avengers Seqel wont lead strait into Thanos just yet. If they do an Ant-Man movie then the Avengers sequel is doing an Ultron style film and that would be more personal. I think Thanos will be used in a Guardians of the Galaxy Movie first prior to the Avengers.
On the show "How i met your mother" Bob Saget starts every episode with telling his children how he supposedly met his wife (their mother) and usually starts along the lines of in-that-time-we-did-that in the summer of 2012 blabla and he refers to Cobie Smulders's character as aunt Robin.Susan Arendt said:
watch 1 episode and you'll see, harder to type it out but couldn't find a clip fast enough
I remember I squealed with joy when I saw Spiderman's cameo on the third act. My friend missed it, though. She's pretty pissed at herself (Spoilers, watch out):
At any rate, the one time I was very happy to go to the movies was when I watched Enchanted. I went a couple of weeks/months after its official release and the place was empty. And I mean not a single soul was there. I sat at the very back, stretched out and enjoyed the movie. I was able to laugh out loud (Something I don't usually do) and there were no dumb kids asking dumb questions or people trying to spoil your experience. Or people.
Maybe that's why I love that movie so much. I still want to recreate that experience but...that's just a silly dream. *Sigh*
When I watched The Avengers, I had the misfortune to sit around a guy who liked to fart like there was no tomorrow. I have no freakin' clue where he was; behind me, next to me, in front of me, I DON'T KNOW! But I kept getting these mysterious whiffs...while eating my popcorn. I tried so hard to ignore it and enjoy the movie, but I couldn't. Now, every time I think of that one time I watched The Avengers, I think of farts.
That's why I hate the movies. And people. And both at the same time. Ugh.
[Also, um, not to sound like an ass but it would be nice if you guys kept the noise into consideration. Let me explain before I get stoned (As in attacked, not high).
At some point during the podcat, you guys get serious (YEAH, I KNOW!) and the volume goes down. Same thing when that one guy that's far away from a microphone starts speaking (I couldn't make it who it was because of that). So I raise my volume in order to hear what's going on. Then BOOM! LOUD LAUGHTER, YELLING AND SCREAMING! It startles me so I lower the volume, then more quiet voices then LOUD and so on.
I know that's probably impossible to control but...it happens in every podcat! I suppose I'm just ranting at this point, though... *Mumble mumble*]
