Or just take an empty bottle in with you.
Turns out there's only 30 minutes of new footage. 20 minutes of time travel setup, then you watch the entirety of Infinity War with the last 10 minutes changed.

I'm not sure about a list, but recently released character posted comfirm a lot. Characters in color survived, Characters in black-n-white did not. Valkyrie survived

Looking forward to it - Cap Marvel was great and this looks like another swing and a hit

That's a good point, really. At some point these MCU movies are going to disappear from Netflix in favore of... Mouseflix, or whatever it's going to be called.

Yep, Disney is going to have a dominating streaming service if you package Star Wars, MCU, and almost every animated childrens' film....it'll be potent if they price it right.
I'm pretty much over streaming services. I'll just buy DVDs of anything I want to own at this point. And since I make it to few movies in the theater, that's not a lot of movies.*
*However, I have this psychological condition where I will happily buy a cart full of Best of the Worst grade movies out of a bargain bin.
For streaming, it just needs a variety of content.
At the moment, I’m getting more out of Amazon Prime than Netflix. So when Disney’s Service launches, Netflix might just find itself one subscriber short. I want to see the MCU and Star Wars gubbins.
NowTV remains for the time being. That gives me more traditional telly, such as Game of Thrones and Walking Dead. It’s also one I can subscribed to seasonally.
I’m convinced streaming is the future. But how new players entering the game will affect it, I don’t know. It’s main advantage now is that it’s cheap. If I end up having six or seven separate subs going? At the current prices, said cheapness soon evaporates.

Pretty sure that I read the opposite, that Captain Marvel will be the first one not to be on Netflix, and that Disney is willing to take the loss in revenues for not releasing it earlier on Netflix to wait and release it on their own network.

I am liking Amazon prime as well.
It feels like Netflix is becoming more like its own HBO type network, with its own shows and movies.
I share in the streaming issue. I like it it, but I am not paying for new ones. I am not paying for Disney, CBS, ESPN etc etc. I could care less if Disney moves to its own network as I don't watch the MCU movies and regret wasting the time watching TLJ-and will not make that mistake again.

I think there is still plenty of space to screw it up with "cabalization"* And we may see a Video stores/RedBox resurgence.
As for Endgame, I have heard a rumor it will be 3 hours long...... perhaps they need to add an intermission? I re-watched old Stan K's Spartacus lately and was tickled by the intermission.

Isn't that Hulu?
No. With the fox deal they aquired a large share of hulu. But theyvare releasing their own this year. Disney +. Its guuna have the mandalorian (live action sw series) and a few mini series featuring mcu characters (winter soldier and falcon, scarlet witch and vision, loki confirmed so far).
These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

If this disintegration of the streaming services continues, I think I'll only subscribe to one at a time. Wait for the complete season of the Star Wars show to be available then sign up to Disney for a month. Cancel that, subscribe to Netflix for a month for something there, over to Amazon for American Gods, etc.
