    Do you ever think about the Stunt Doubles?

    Most movies of different fandoms such as the Marvel Universe, Star Trek, Star Wars, the DC Cinematic Universe, etc. are fast paced and filled with action which often makes one wonder what poor sod had to let himself get punched by Captain Marvel, shot by a laser blaster or punched through a wall.

    Why You Shouldn’t Spoil It | Avengers: Endgame

    Endgame was the conclusion of an era and the fact that it didn’t have a post-credits scene shows that. This doesn’t mean that the MCU is finished but that it’s the beginning of a new chapter. The future MCU movies will see a shift, showing the impact of Endgame and how it affected the lives…
