WATCH ALONG | MCU | Thor: The Dark World
🕑 Added 2023-02-20 15:00:02 +0000 UTC***The following notice is the same one that was in the Iron Man 3 description. So, if you read that, you do not need to read this.***
SCHEDULE CHANGE NOTICE: I've been informed there is a connection between something that happens in the first season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and that it would be ideal to watch through episode 16 of the show before watching the movie, and then episode 17 after the movie. So, that is what I will be doing.
As a result, Thor: The Dark World (which has already been recorded and will be released on February 20th) will be the last MCU movie until I get through episode 16 of AOS.
As previously mentioned, I'll be traveling for a few weeks later this month and will be returning the first week of March. It will likely take me a week or so to get my schedule back to normal after returning. Once that happens, I can start recording AOS. They will go out as reactions (full watch-alongs, one per week), but not until I get probably around 10 episodes recorded first.
Once I get closer to having episode 16 recorded, I can then add MCU movies back onto the schedule (likely in April) and continue as we have been with those.
Regarding AOS reactions, I will at least finish out the first season (which will take us into Fall 2023), but I will need to wait until we get closer to the end of that time period before deciding if the reactions to it will continue straight on or if there will need to be a break.
Also, once AOS reactions begin, a new MCU-specific tier will be created. The AOS reactions will also be included in the All TV Shows, The Whole Shebang, and Britany's Bestie tiers.

A Few Notes:
- No spoilers beyond this movie unless you see that later movies/episodes have already been released. In that case, no spoilers beyond those movies.
- This video is in a watch-along format. This means you'll need your own copy of the episode to watch alongside my reaction. This is in an effort to avoid copyright infringement.
- If you're based in the UK (or using a UK streaming site), here are instructions for how to get your copy to sync with mine.
- The show footage will play for the first 30 seconds with both video and audio. After that, the show footage will be silenced, and the video will be blurred for the remainder of the episode. There is also a count-up timer that begins once the episode has started. These things will hopefully make it easier for you to keep your copy of the episode synced with mine.

Regarding the confusing casting of Fandril: Originally, Zachary Levi was cast for the role in the first Thor, but scheduling conflicts forced him to drop out of the project and Josh Dallas was cast as his replacement. Afterward, Josh became far too busy with OUAT, never able to free up enough time to reprise his role. Fortunately, Zachary was now available, so he was able to reclaim the role that was originally his in the first place.

this movie gets a lot of hate for its weak plot but its definitely one of my guilty pleasures :) I love loki as a character and I'm so glad you were caught by the same things I was; the love he clearly has for his mother and the seemingly instinctual motions he makes to protect jane (despite his constant double-crossing). I think the line "trust my rage" is really interesting. It feels accurate, if there's one thing about loki you can trust, its that he will act out based on how he FEELS. A common debate in the fandom at the time was the question of; was loki's "death" scene all planned out ahead of time? Or did loki really think he was dying, wake up a few minutes later, and go "Oh, I have a GREAT idea." Personally, I don't know which I like better lol
