To Everything, Turn Turn Turn

DYK that's was the point of the game? It was invented by Eleanor Abbott for children hospitalized with polio. The disease would effect mobility among other things so Candyland focused instead on bright colors and engaging illustrations rather than complicated gameplay to encourage the imagination of bedbound children. This post, and this comment, is a testament to Abbots genius in when she made this game.

Peter Murphy. For his 69th birthday

You know, it all makes sense now, why you favored Thor all these years. Because no matter how much you claim to love me, you could never have a Frost Giant sitting on the throne of Asgard!

Tom Hiddleston as Loki

From my quick research, phase 1, which started pre-Disney, had a 6-person panel of experts who made sure the movies worked with each other and were faithful to the comics with half the members being active comics writers and editors.

Phase 2…possibly did not. It’s not clear. I can’t find anything about the panel in stuff written about phase 2, but research for phase 3 says the experts were still being consulted up to that point 3. But Phase 2 did rely more heavily on Joss Whedon as the guy keeping the stories straight because he was given Age of Ultron. So the pieces had to be maneuvered to fit the story he wanted told. And he wanted Age of Ultron to be a standalone that didn’t need background viewing to be understood. Which meant there couldn’t be development of relationships outside of that movie.

By phase 3 in 2015, the MCU was answering to Disney and not Marvel. The experts were gone. And none of the avengers except maybe Cap and Black Widow or Black Widow and Hawkeye liked each other. I’m not sure they even respected each other.

The MCU is currently on phase 6.
