nah, dude, watching in chronological order is for MCU veterans who want a new way to watch the series. as long as you keep an eye out for occasional timeline stuff (and it really does not happen very often), it's genuinely best to watch them in release order like the rest of us all did.
agreed
Definitely release order
Agreed. Chronological order can ruin some things for first tine watchers.
yeah, it irks me super bad when idiots try to insist first time watchers do the MCU in chronological order. No man, people only say that with the full knowledge of what they have already seen to put it into context. It would literally make zero sense and outright ruin so much shit watching it that way for the first time.
This whole notion of chronological order is so dumb (for newbs). If you did this with Star Wars, for instance, you would have spoiled the biggest event in cinema. Watch in release order.
"If they don't dance by the end of the movie im going to be very upset." Oh man... 😅
He did make it, it's just that we have to wait till end game to figure it out
@@ashes_aryan9621 Yeah, nobody needed you to say it out loud dude....
@@ashes_aryan9621 Only took an extra 78 years, seeing her one more time, going to her funeral, some weird stuff with her niece, plus a lot of superhero activity and time travel for it to happen.
The problem with watching in chronological order, is they still establish things in previous movies that you will miss the references for if you don't watch them in release order, whereas they took into account time jumps and explain things appropriately if you watch it in release order.
I agree; it's much better to watch in release order.
Yes. This.
Yep. It is fun if you do a second watch through using the chronological order, but 100% do release order if it is the first time.
@@seanmahoney2671 agreed
Had no idea there were actually people out there lobbying for chronological 😳
the "I had a date" line is still one of most favorite and badass yet bittersweet lines of the entire MCU for me. all these things are happening around Steve, new year, strange people, strange world, outliving anyone and everyone he ever knew, some potential uncertainty as to whether his sacrifice meant anything, being tricked as he wakes up for the first time coming out of the ice and basically going into go mode when he figures it out, all only to be broken and humanized because he had a date, real powerful and it cuts so deep, it's an absolutely beautiful moment.
Not sure how it's badass or bittersweet lmao. It's just sad.
Well said
Lmao wtf how is that badass 💀😂
Fun fact: When Steve exits the machine and Agent Carter reaches for his chest and hesitates, that was not in the script. The actress said that she actually couldn't resist reaching out to him after seeing him shirtless for the first time.
Love the reactions bro.
Hayley Atwell is all of us.
I mean... would be my reaction too
I didn't realize that Haley Atwell's reaching to touch Steve and pulling back was totally unscripted
Source?
@@jm329 I think she had mentioned it on the Graham Norton show or something
12:00 he had a fake tooth that was in fact a thin-walled glass container with cyanide. It was fairly common in WWII in case you fell into enemy hands.
How people don't know about this???
Yes, in Germany we're taught this in school. 😅
Lol, my first thought upon reading that was “Wouldn’t glass be too dangerous?” Then I remembered what the point of cyanide is 😂
Crazy how people speak with such confidence. “Fairly common in WWII” ?? My brother in Christ cyanide teeth don’t exist.
@@Convulsions95 It was a glass container shaped like a tooth, painted white, and filled with cyanide, what don't you get?
Cap was "asleep" for 70 years because he crashed the plane into the ice. If you remember the beginning, the first thing you see is the shield in ice.
Captain America's story is by far my favorite marvel arc. Keep on going with these movies, you will not be disappointed.
the whole Avengers arc hung on the Captain America movies. The other movies were just introductions of the other Avengers. Winter Soldier, Cap had to destroy SHIELD because it was over run with Hydra and stop them even at the cost. Then he blew apart the Avengers because of they tyrant Tony was pushing.
@@jasonrhodes9683 Hey man, could you delete your comment or edit it just in case Alex sees it? Those are some pretty big spoilers you put in there.
@@TheOneAndOnlyFloridaMan hey, I didn't say it took everything Cap had not to off Tony.
@@jasonrhodes9683 I'm talking about the plot of Winter Soldier, not just Civil War. And now you're intentionally spoiling. He probably won't see your comment luckily but that's still kind of shitty.
It was so good! I just hate that they threw away the ending on a deus ex machina
The blue cube (the Tesseract) wasn't destroyed at the beginning. Schmidt (the Red Skull) broke a fake that was meant to be a decoy.
Obviously because if you watch the movie HE JUST WATCHED then he doesn’t need your information
@@judeless77 That's correct, however since he voiced confusion over the matter I thought I'd be helpful.
@@judeless77 Except he didn't understand that.
In the comics, it was called the "Cosmic Cube", which is a pretty lame name. "Tesseract" is much cooler. And it's also a real word from math - it means the four-dimensional analog of a cube. A square is two-dimensional, a cube is three-dimensional, and a tesseract is four-dimensional. (At five and higher dimensions, they don't have specific names. They just call them "hypercubes". A five-dimensional hypercube, a six-dimensional hypercube, etc. Sometimes just called a 5-cube, 6-cube, etc.)
Anybody notice Peggy ran toward the grenade too? They had the material for a super soldier all along, healthier material, and only saw a skirt. Also, excellent reaction. :D
That's in what if
Thats why she’s captain carter
That’s my favorite scene in all of the MCU but I never noticed that detail! It also shows why they had such a strong bond with each other.
The trouble is, she's a worse choice. She's healthier than Rogers, richer than Rogers, and is overall more privileged than Rogers.
The only struggle she has is being a woman a struggle she was able to overcome. You can't overcome asthma.
Carter is a good soldier Rogers is a good person.
This is one of my favorite “comfort movies.” It’s like visiting old friends. Even when you know everything that will happen, it’s nice to be with them again.
Old comment I'm late but yesss this is exactly how it is for me too. 💜
The cool thing about the MCU is your going to see just how well the writing is when you realize what they're doing. The avengers is next and this movie is HUGE
It’s so consistently well written like they’ve thought through every little detail since the beginning even if they didn’t. It’s so good
@@AntonioCruz-jp4bh it’s so cool how Kevin Feige and the writers have been planning out the infinity saga for so many years
I really think the true genius of this movie was making us like Steve Rogers before he got the serum. We were rooting for him when he could do nothing at all, so once he starts being able to do shit, we get double the satisfaction.
The thing I love about Cap is he is the only hero that I can think of that his whole arc is staying the same, not changing who he is, he grows and learns of course but he kept his word. I know he has more of a sad past in the comics but with this version other then his health issues, bullying and losing his parents he didn’t have this tragic past that lead to him being a hero, he just wanted to help and do as much as he could. He felt so real to me.
What you would be describing is not an arc, but a static character (which is not inherently bad).
Spoilers for other MCU stuff.
Cap does have an arc though. He goes from being being trusting in general to being more trusting of individuals instead of systems and organisations. He's very much about the individual.
@@pezdispencer113Sonic the Hedgehog would be a static character (at least in the games, not in the movies), where is the other characters have other character arcs.
Can't wait for your reaction to Avengers. Most of us have been watching these movies for over a decade so I'm sure you're starting to see the effect they've had
Peggy has her own TV series in "Agent Carter" which is awesome... and Howard Stark is "Ironman"'s father.
That glass thing in the comics is called the Cosmic Cube, and it literally is a Maguffin device, and in the movies they call it the Tessaract and it comes into play later on. Great reaction, and this really is my favorite of all of the MCU movies, especially until after Endgame
Yeah... And don't forget. Howard Stark grabbed Tessa from the ocean, studied it, and harness its power, and uses its power to build this thing call "The Arc Reactor" which gives Iron-Man his sorcer of power..
@@josemojica4342 Howard didn't build the Arc Reactor, Tony did.
@@Tensen01 howard built the original big arc reactor but considered it incomplete. tony built the miniature one
Being a big fan of all these movies, I have seen them so many times and honestly I still get chills at certain parts.
Also, it's clear you don't know the comics (which is awesome for you) so you can experience these movies completely blind and that is great. Looking forward to the rest of the videos.
Captain America has the best solo movies out of the MCU, his story is so good and I can’t wait to see your reactions through the journey!
Spider man can give Steve a run for his money
Nah, Iron Man is better
@@zulawoo Ironman 1 yes. 2 was bad and 3 was mediocre.
Captain America's trilogy consistently got better as it went.
@@quiett6191that’s not entirely fair, considering that Civil War was basically an Avengers movie.
Release order is the way!! Can’t wait to see many more reactions as you have more EPIC movies to conquer sir 🔥
Just to add, captain America 2 is heralded as one of the best MCU movies. It always hits people's top 5 list. His story is one of discovery, mostly of what he can do and as challenges are presented how far his body can go. There are retrospective videos going all the way from current MCU back to that movie showing his level of growth both in tactics and in strength. His character alone is a journey.
The director/writer made a similar movie for Disney back in the 90s. It is called "The Rocketeer" and is well worth a watch. I would think that that movie got him the job for "Captain America", because it was set just prior to WW@ and has a similar character dynamic.
The origin of Captain America is pretty loyal to the comic with a couple exceptions.
1. In the comics Bucky was a young kid who he met AFTER joining the army.
2. Captain America spent years fighting WWII, and met many super heroes and villains back int he 1940s. He even joined a team called The Invaders. They just gloss over those and only give him one villain and what seems like a few months of fighting.
3. In the comics he was discovered in the 1960s by the Avengers, and joined them. He was not a founding member. He was their first recruit, taking the place of the Hulk, who had left!
What kind of animal wanted you to do chronological order? Release order is the intended viewing order, it's a no-brainer
I’m glad you did the release order. When it was time for my girls to watch we did it chronological and I regret it and wish I had done it by release.
the scene after his transformation, when the bad guy crushes his tooth is pretty historicaly accurate. the nazis had a zyankali capsule between there teeth in case they get captured. they crushed it and commited suicide, because they would rather die than leaking any information through torture etc.
Just watched V For Vendetta last night; I think you need to do a reaction to it, Alex. Great action, political commentary, and characters.
And the 2 main characters are actors from Marvel movies.
I watched it last week and it made me wanna watch it again so I could base my English final project off of it
@@deliriousgeorge2879 Nice. 👍
The filmmakers pulled off an interesting trick with Steve Rogers' "before and after"... Like a good magician, knowing that audiences would be looking for CGI/effects *following* the super-serum, they found a scrawny 'double' (Leander Denny) who (other than physique) looked very much like Chris Evans - making it much easier to superimpose Evans' face over Denny's in all the before scenes. While a few minor goofs did make their way through production and into the final film, they largely went unnoticed because that wasn't what audiences were expecting.
Remember that phrase. "Not a perfect soldier. But a good man". That will be *very* important much later on.
Woke up at 6:40am and spent the first 32+ minutes of my day watching your reaction. Great stuff as usual, bud!!
No way you bud him
Even after seeing this film for the umpteenth time; when I hear Cap say, “I had a date,” my heart just breaks for him. He seems so entirely and utterly alone. 😢
That is a sad scene.😢
Midnight showing. Scene where he jumps the bike into the bunker. The film literally incinerated from the middle of the screen. Everyone thought it was a special effect until the theater lights came up. Somebody said "Man, that scene was fire" and everybody cackled for 3 minutes. I will never forget the energy and community in that theater. Peak MCU fans being awesome 😎
Steve and Tony both have such great arcs not only in their own movies but throughout the MCU as well. It only gets better from here! Also Marvels casting might be the best thing they do and that’s saying a lot. Through every movie it is spot on! Also if you live the comedy then just wait until some of the other films. Can’t wait!
Ragnarok😁
@@mister_matrix Ragnarock, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 1 & 2 and even Antman!
Even if the movies aren’t always the best especially in recent times the characters are always good, I truly haven’t disliked any good guy characters in the whole franchise.
Let’s not forget that when the grenade is thrown in boot camp, Carter starts running to jump on it as well, stopping only because Steve got there first
"Not a perfect soldier... But a good man..." I love that quote...
Remember the "don't do anything stupid till I get back" line. There's a payoff down the road in about 15 movies, and its utter...perfection.
Very fitting for this to come out on Memorial Day. FYI, in the comics recently, they've made the red skull out to be basically Jordan Peterson
I know and it's completely ridiculous. That's like making Bob Ross out to be Dr. Doom or Mr. Rodgers out to be Green Goblin
Not basically. They literally made Red Skull, Jordan Peterson.
@@ck_sidekick8306
Why? Did Jorden Peterson do something bad to make him Red Skull or something?
@@thefvguy5648 Well, that depends on who you ask. It boils down to the fact that politics is so polarized these days that one person's hero, is another person's Nazi.
It makes sense for the Skull to adapt to the times and use modern media and methods; if he tried the same strategy he has since the 40s some other super would kill him inside a week 🤷♂️
fun fact: the actress that plays agent carter, when she saw chris evans coming out of that machine. It was genuine reaction. they kept that scene cuz she really was smitten by him on that specific scene
Notice that Peggy was also going to jump on the grenade.
Agent Carter is a fun 2 season show
this was the second-ever MCU movie I watched, and the one that got me into superheroes and Marvel specifically. I was completely fucking obsessed with this movie for so long i stg. Amazing film.
I love that you love this movie and have already fallen in love with Cap, his arc only gets better.
No offense but I’m not a huge fan of cap. He doesn’t have any cool superpowers and he just talks about Peggy the entire franchise. Again just my opinion but apparently u guys love him and I’m not against that.
@@its_jj_maia I totally get it, most of my friends give me tons of crap for liking Cap for those same reasons, so I assume he is just not a character that resonates with everyone. I am just excited to see someone watch through the MCU and love all the characters that I love (though we aren't very far in yet so who knows he may end up hating some of my favorite characters).
@@its_jj_maia I personally like Steve as a character, but I don’t see what him not having any superpowers has to do with anything
Like 30secs before you said it I was thinking about Mulan lol. I love that her reaching out to touch him wasn't in the script, just her reflex.
The Cap movies are the highlights of the franchise for me. I still don't like the concept of the overarching Civil War story, but even that was done excellently.
isn´t the movie set during WW2? Or have I misunderstood something?
@@oh1hatemumm1es It is set in WW2, you're correct. I may have been unclear. I was speaking of the movie and comic run of the Marvel "Civil War" event. That's Cpt. America: Civil War in the MCU. I never liked that story, but the movie adapted the story well.
totally agree. The underlying plot to civil war falls apart under the least bit of scrutiny (with some highly questionable character motivations). But it's nevertheless a fun watch, well-acted and well-shot.
@@garretthenderson5738 Well said.
@@garretthenderson5738 what falls apart under scrutiny?
12:00 Apparently Alex doesn't know what a cyanide pill is.
I love how the scene where the serum makes Steve Rodgers all swoll: That's the first time Peggy's actress had seen him shirtless, so that little reach-out to touch his chest was actually genuine.
The special effects for Steve Rogers were a mixture of him, cgi, a jockey who was very close to him and appearance in size, and some larger props.
You reactions to these Marvel movies is great and your attention to detail is going to pay off as this journey continues. I can’t wait for you to see where this all goes!
You’re going to be blown away. Try your best to avoid spoilers (don’t look at movie posters or do any research before the films) because there are plenty of moments best not spoiled.
It’s about to get REALLY good!
Another great reaction.
Also, I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this yet ... but in the scene where the grenade is tossed and Steve Rogers jumps on it to save the others ... if you notice in the background, Agent Carter is also running towards the grenade as well. Agent Carter is awesome...that Steve missed the dance with her is tragic.
Yeah her verve and every actions in the movies and tv shows , points toward her being the next best thing , if not for the "sin" of being a woman at that time
Look at me! 😂 I feel your pain, brother. You look great! I was 5'-9 3/4, 135 lbs at my '81 graduation. Now, a healthy 150, 5'-9" with a 6'-3" wingspan, and the same 16" neck! 😂 Did residential construction with 2 brothers, Dad and an uncle. Built truck chassis, pianos, furniture, all skill types. Bodies like ours were meant to be lean, quick agile and efficient. My son is the same, but he's 6'-2", a stunt rider, mechanic, cyber security guy. 😊 Much love, great reaction, as usual! Peace
Oh, forgot to say, YES, my body Still reminds me of my life's accomplishments! 😄 Lived long enough to laugh about it.
Steve Rogers has one heck of a character arc over the course of all the movies.
What is brilliant about the actor's performance is that you never lose sight of the scrappy skinny kid inside no matter how much he changes.
The whole USO/War Bonds part of the story is a reference to the Golden Age origins of this character. During the Golden Age, most of the artists and writers at Marvel were the sons of immigrants, and a high percentage of them were Jewish.
Captain America was created for the express purpose of convincing America to join WW2 on the side of the Allies and against the Axis. After the war started, he remained propaganda and helped inspire everyone to fight harder. The comic book was very popular with the troops fighting in Europe. The original character was blatant propaganda. The war bonds part of the story was basically a nod to that.
He faded out after the war ended (in an embarrassing way that Marvel had to retcon).
During the Vietnam war, a lot of people are making arguments in the name of patriotism that frankly violated the spirit of American values and traditions. During this era, they did the "thawed from ice" story, so basically, WW2 era Steve Rogers woke up in the Vietnam era and wagged his finger at those supporting the war.
Since then, this has been the function of the character. By his very nature, he is appealing to jingoists, so the writers use him to deliver criticisms that jingoists would not accept from anyone else. This phase of the character basically covers everything he does in the modern era after being freed from the ice. For example, the second Captain America movie is basically about the surveillance state in a post-9/11 world. During the early post-9/11 era, many Republicans argued that no one should have a problem with the government spying on us "As long as you did nothing wrong." The whole second Captain America movie is basically directed at anyone who made such arguments.
I love the comments that constantly make me think... "oh you're gonna really appreciate the long game"
When Hayley Atwell saw shirtless Cris Evans she was so stunned that just had to reach out and touch his peck. Totally improvised. She was simply reacting to the view
Man Steve jumping on the grenade has to be my favorite hero moment ever especially with Tommy Lee Jones incredible reactions to skinny Steve just being around and proving himself. Whenever I rewatch this movie I genuinely have to rewind the scene like 5 times.
I’m getting such enjoyment watching your reactions to this franchise. Even more exciting is that you are still in the “bad” movies. The only reason they are “bad” is because later movies get so freaking epic.
Fun fact: The chest touch by Agent Carter was not in the original script. It was just the way Haley Atwell reacted, and the director decided to keep it in the movie 🎦
15:13 wait til Alex watches that shipboarding scene in Winter Soldier...
Alex: "If this man doesn't dance by the end of the movie I'm going to be legitimately upset."
Me: 👀👀👀
I'm a Total sucker for WWII stories and 1930/40s America, this helped in making Captain America One of my favorite action movies of all times
Nice Reaction. Looking forward to "The Avengers" and the rest of your journey. The MCU story flow goes in release order. Chronological order would show reveals & spoilers ahead of when you should be seeing them. Chronological order ruins the proper story flow - It literally makes no sense to suggest it for first time viewers.
I love this movie. It has heart and substance that some of the other films are lacking.
honestly, a lot of the MCU films lack heart and substance. And what ever is there is undercut by needless "humor".
Fun fact, the actress who plays peggy couldnt resist touching Chris Evan’s pecks after he became cap. They left it in the movie
I don't know if it was ever a reality, but in adventure fiction, highly dedicated spies and fanatics would have a false tooth filled with cyanide, and they'd dislodge it and crunch it in order to die and avoid interrogation.
The first commercial televisions were developed and sold in Germany in 1934, by Telefunken. The resolution and lifespan of the unit wasn't very good, but this would be the basis of the Red Skull's security camera and display technology, which would be a super-advanced version. Essentially, this is scifi technology for the era.
The bad guy was called 'Red Skull' for a reason. 👍
There are 2 seasons of Agent Carter that follows Peggy after Steve crashed the plane. Well worth watching. Cheers for the little guys.
Had the same thoughts about how much more I liked captain America than I expected. You will have that feeling a few more times on your journey if you are anything like me. You also may end up having to force yourself not to start watching these more regularly, cause they are addictive. Keep up the great reactions.
Bro, you might wanna try & pay better attention, you’re getting confused way too easily & with a lot of these movies, even little details matter
They created a miriacle - one of the best soldiers ever with a heart to match. And what do they do? They use him for profit. One of the most accurate depictions of America ever! Kirby and Simon were geniuses!
Very cool channel, glad I came across it. Subbed. Liked. Belled.
Have you seen the movie The Rocketeer? If not, you need to! It was directed by Joe Johnston, who also directed Captain America. The Rocketeer came out back in 1991, so exactly 20 years before Captain America and the movie is so similar! If you like Captain America, you'll like The Rocketeer!
Best Regards!
Captain America is my favourite. I just love him. ^^ But that didn't really hit me until I watched "The Winter Soldier". Sooooo excited for you to get to that. One of the best movies of the MCU EVER, hands down!
The broken cube in the beggining was a fake one
This is one of the *few* MCU movies I _actually_ enjoyed for 1 very simple reason: *Peggy-Carter!* 😎💖 14:47 - 14:52 Yep!That's what I'm saying!!😊💞 Speaking of which.. if you're not doing it already,you should definitely check the"Agent Carter"TV series!!🤩

03:08 - 03:14 TBH,I would probably *be* that dude! I don't think I would have the guts to scream that out loud,but...that's for sure what I would be thinking!X-P I'm here for the movie,not some military propaganda!!

30:34 - 30:44 I'm serious,man,you *MUST* watch the"Agent Carter"series...she's amazing in that!!!🤩Anyway,yes,she and Steve are my absolute OTP for the MCU!💞
So enjoying watching your reactions to the MCU. I get to enjoy the movies again vicariously through you. :) The character development throughout these is amazing. If it wasn't, we wouldn't care so much about them, and they wouldn't have had such a huge impact. I'm with you on the humor too. They include just the right amount to offset the serious and anxiety-inducing stuff. Looking forward to the next one!
This is a great Holiday reaction. And having Samuel Jackson at the end is great. So glad I can relive some MCU Magic with these videos. Thank you.
When Nick said "You've been asleep for nearly 70 years" he meant that he had been frozen/preserved in the ice for 70 years
I was about 7 and the first movie I cried to was Lilo & Stitch. Keep up the good work Alex!
4:34 what i found funny about the cybertruck thing is people seemed to not understand that if you throw a regular steel ball at a car window its gone
now you understand the Thor post credit scene, the thing in the box was the tesseract
Kudos for your movies reaction so far . I like that unlike a few streamers , you don't have a jaded or cynical outlook on those movies (even the non mcu ones) , and basically discover them with childlike wonder . And with none of it being faked
Release order is the way. Chronological spoils a lot and seemingly confuses you. After you're done with the journey, I'm fairly certain Disney+ has a chronological order for the MCU. Note that there are shows such as Captain Carter, that was unfortunately cancelled, that is picked up after Captain America.
"If this man doesn't dance before the end of the movie i'm going to be legitimately upset"
Man, are you up for a long wait 😅
MCU line just keeps getting better, and then they keep tying the stuff together. Some amazing writing.
If you are digging these, and it seems like you are, I hope you're watching them in the order they were released so that you will be 100% emotionally invested in the grand finale, Infinity War and Endgame. It will make the whole journey SO much more worth it in the end. The Endgame conclusion will not be equaled for many years, in my opinion.
This and X-Men: First Class, these are two criminally underrated superhero films. The tone is perfect and it even feels triumphant and that ending with the kids running around and the kid with the aluminum shield is as a all American feels as you get.
I don't know man. I feel like all Xmen movies suck bloody ass
This is the earliest MCU movie that made me cry. The ending is sad. Especially for those of us that have lost love in one way or another.
The amount of times I have rewatched his mcu reactions and I only discovered him a few months ago is insane. Keep up the amazing work Alex!!!❤
The Captain America movies and the Spider-Man movies are, quite frankly, my favorites.
The others are great, too, but the writing for those two characters is just fantastic.
when peggy touched his chest at 10:04, that wasnt scripted. the actress just couldnt resist, and they left it in
Thank you for a great reaction, loved your facial expressions, (involuntary) exclamations and pure love for the MCU. Awesome way to relive these great movies!
Keep going with the Marvel Mondays, Alex Hefner.
Some of this shit won't pay off for about a dozen more films.
In other words, Kevin Feige is a genius.
12:03 He didn't "eat his tooth". He bite down on a cyanide capsule
I love Stanley Tucci period, but especially in this role.
There is a "what if" out there in which Steve is out of the picture, and Peggy takes the treatment! I would LOVE to see that!
Great reaction, by the way!✌️❤️
The best way to watch the MCU is in release order, that's how everyone else saw it and how everyone knows of it.
actually there is a 2 Season long TV Series about Agent Carter with all together 18 Episodes
so... I never noticed that neck snapping clip... I've seen this move several dozens of times... wtf
Also Peggy Carter is like... a certified badass... and I fucking love her
btw, hope you check the Marvel series out someday also. Peggy's got her own series called "Agent Carter" ;) And Howard Stark is in it again as well.
Watching this far in the future...
I think you'd really like the movie Overlord.
Zombies and WWII.
Great reaction, Alex! The commentating versus editing has improved. Although, cut of the crew crashing into Red Skull’s “office” or the General’s classic line, “I’m not gonna kiss you” & the decision to edit out the baseball scene for long anecdotes about college or extra long dad jokes was frustrating. I know that you’ll get better. Perhaps, check out Thor Reacts. I think that he’s managed to find the perfect balance without sacrificing key scenes 😉
Can’t wait for next Monday!

Agreed about Thor.
12:00 As a spy/asassin, they hold pills in their mouth. When/if they are caught, they bite said pill and poision themself so they cannot be tortured for information. Hope this helps!
I'm English so the pronunciation of schedule you find difficult is just how we all say it.
If it helps many of us find Skedule very irritating too.
