I’d say the biggest wet blanket on the possibility of a crossover was Spider-man making a Empire Strikes Back reference in Civil War as that means that Star Wars exists as a fictional franchise in the MCU.

That was the whole deal with 9 and 10's companions anyway, which is what made them interesting: not a one of them had a mysterious destiny about them.

A lot of mistakes? He and Cat hardly knew each other when they got married; they didn’t exactly have a firm foundation of trust.

Because after he was pledged, he would be safe from Robert’s Targ-hating wrath.

At what point did you ever get the idea that Edward Stark was the scheming type?

Regardless of precedent, a lack of a plan B is a HUGE engineering no-no. You always should plan for the worst.

Now there’s two reasons!

Yes, in roughly November, and they began releasing more Rey toys in January.

The #WheresRey thing actually started before the movie came out.

Idk, maybe stop being so damn conservative about literally every product they ever produce, creating an environment in which scampers are assured a profit, knowing that Nintendo has not possibly even come close to meeting the initial demand, instead opting to either play catch-up in a year or just ending the supply…

Every scalped item represents demand that was not met.

Or:

Pretty damn sure that’s an upper-cut being delivered by Thor.
