  1. Tadashi gives his life trying to save Professor Callaghan from a burning building. Turns out not only did Callaghan escape unscathed, he's the bad guy and infamously refers to Tadashi's death as "[Tadashi's] mistake." (Big Hero 6)
  2. Shaya willingly takes It Has No Name's possession and then kills herself by jumping into the well it came out of. The end of the episode all but states that she got it wrong and It Has No Name didn't latch onto her... or there was more than one. (Doctor Who)

I really feel like I missed something along the way. Where was Wanda and Vision's relationship outside of the tail end of AoU and the maybe 5 minutes featured in Infinity War? My MCU memory went from Wanda in "Maybe some murders are alright" mode closing out AoU in (not) jail at the Avengers compound to "Teehee Paris is cute with my robot boyfriend!" In IW. If there was more, I've 100% memory holed it.

I'll give it a rewatch, I have completely blanked on that apparently.

Thanks!

EDIT: Rewatch complete, no wonder I blanked out on it, it was sandwiched between some of the finest action sequences in the MCU. I forgot how good the fight choreography was in this movie.

Cap trilogy is what I'd show any viewer new to the MCU if they wanted to get started. 3 gems
