Movie-verse check-in!

[runbeforewalk]

So I noticed that we've had a little bit of an AVENGERS EXPLOSION lately, and I thought it might be helpful to have a check-in about where in canon everyone's coming from and what general feelings are! I've talked to several of y'all separately, but honestly there are so many characters now in or about to be apped from the recent Marvel movies that I can't quite keep everybody straight.

HELLO, I am Lexie (sotto_voice) and I play Tony. He and Pepper are currently in from a few months before the first Iron Man movie. For the moment, at least until he's publicly Iron Man (and I'll reevaluate once that point is hit!), I'd prefer to keep him separate from other Avengers and Avenger-affiliated folks; anyone who's going to have an idea of who he is and what goes on. ALL BETS ARE OFF after that, though, and I'm beyond stoked about playing with y'all! Come chat in the comments?? #superorganizedandshit

HI. I'M RUE. That's delight for those who don't know me and I actually think nowadays that's a lot of people. Hi people I don't know!

I have Sif here who is post-Thor, and am also bringing in Natasha Romanoff (queenofthedead) this app cycle. I haven't actually decided on her canon point, and was kind of leaving it up to if Carly and Lexie wanted to play through Iron Man 2 honestly! Though, either way, I can still OOM her as past!her if I decide to canon bump her.

Same with how Sif here might get to appear in Thor OOMs if Thor-mun wants to go for that, but bar!Sif is going to remain post-movie.

I have nothing actually useful to say! Hi I like Marvels~

[fromadistance]

Helloooooo, I'm Hans and I live at tiltingheartand when I'm not this dude. I am undecided (much like Rue) as to where he's coming from, at this point, although the thought of bringing him in post-Avengers and still being able to OOM from ~the past~ seems wise.

My general feelings are OMG SO EXCITE. The end.

[ceitfianna]

I'm Kate (ceitfianna) and I play Charles Xavier from X-Men: First Class and he's currently in the early part of his canon. In terms of X-Men, he's a movieverse with hints but one thing I'm wondering about is how do we as movieverse want to think about any sort of shared universe if at all.

I personally love the idea of the X-Men kind of around if not interacting so that Charles knows Starks but as he's earlier in time Howard or knows of Captain America.

This hasn't really come up too much in threads but I'd love to get thoughts on this as we do have this post. Thank you.

HI I'M WEAVES AND, ER, DO YOU NEED A MOVIEVERSE HULK? Maybe? At all?

[wakeupnew]

WEEEAAAVES! I am a bad person to ask, as I am wildly out of touch, but he is the only movie!Avenger who I have yet to hear anyone talk about apping! Others might know better than I do.

[wakeupnew]

My personal immediate thought (and bearing in mind that I haven't actually seen XMFC or any of the X-Men movies since the first one) is that the two canons probably aren't linked; it seems like you'd hear a whole lot more about mutants and such in the recent string of Marvel movies, if they were? My canon knowledge is deeply shaky, though, and I'm interested to hear what other folks think!

[fromadistance]

Also I would be so happy, personally, if someone apped a movieverse Hulk because I loved him so much.

[asynja]

Bing is apping him, I think!

[ceitfianna]

The reason they're not linked is because the rights for The Avengers vs X-Men vs Spider-Man are all owned by different people. So having X-Men stuff in Avengers' movie stuff isn't actually possible.

This is why I'm asking in here if in Milliways' space anyone is interested in having that knowledge that's part of the comicsverse. I'm good either way but it'd be good to be on the same page and also more thoughts the better.

[son_of_coul]

I kind of like the idea of the mutants being like urban legends that SHIELD has files for but no definite proof of since they've been busy with aliens, flying suits of armor and gods.

But this guy isn't official yet so...

[son_of_coul]

So I am one of at least two mun's with plans to App Coulson here. My plans for Coulson will be pre-Thor so I can play with the two shorts. I can have him learn the time differences and then clue in quickly about Pepper and Tony being earlier in time to avoid things.

And then I do have plans for post-Avegners but I don't think Fi has seen the movie so let's not spoil things okay?

[son_of_coul]

Sweet! I thought I saw a Banner around in one of the sandboxes.

[wakeupnew]

Oh, yeah, I know that they're actually not linked because of real-world rights stuff! I meant more -- the stuff that happens in the X-Men films is a pretty huge deal, in terms of world events that seem like they'd have to go noticed and remarked upon if we said the universes were linked and thus that they'd happened in the Avengers movie-'verse. Everyone should defs weigh in!

[ceitfianna]

*nodsnods*

Yeah, its complicated and sort of annoying and the more thoughts and ideas the better. Since Marvel never really has small events.

Its been a long day and I was worried I wasn't making a lot of sense.

[wakeupnew]

haha, I don't think the phrase 'small event' is in Marvel's vocabulary. Total sense, ma'am!

[son_of_coul]

Perhaps the stuff in the first three X-men movies hasn't happened yet or maybe they won't happen since First Class seems a sort of reboot to me.

But I do see your point and further difficulties as when the events happen, why wasn't SHIELD and the Avengers there? Especially in SF during X3.

[son_of_coul]

I should probibly add I am Elan and I live at bjornwilde.

[weaver]

Pipped at the post! Oh, well, next time.

(HE IS SO GREAT. I HAVE SO MANY FEELS ABOUT HIM.)

[asynja]

I COULD be wrong, so it would likely be best to ask her directly!

HELLO GUYS

I am Brady, to be found very irregularly at distractionary, by which I mean I'm pretty sure I haven't updated it since 2011. Uh.

ANYWAY.

Loki here is in the process of falling off the Bifrost, so, the end of Thor. (Same as Sif.)

And, similarly, happy to have him OOM pre- or mid-canon for Thor, any time!

I am totally psyched for the idea of working our way through Avengers so that we can FIX ALL THE $SPOILERS.

[othereight]

I am Carly, and in addition to being responsible for the famous Pepper Potts, I am also behind the one and only Raven Darkholme (andproud).

Both gals are pre-films in terms of their canon. Oh, and you can find me at storybrooke for other shenanigans.

[bjornwilde]

I would like to take this chance to say I *LOVE* your Loki and can't wait to throw someone at him. = ]

[fromadistance]

(would it be inappropriate at this point to mention that "very irregularly" is still probably giving off an impression of updating more than you do?)

(not that I care, but just out of curiosity.)

[minkhollow]

You guuuuuuuys are severely tempting me to see if I can wake up my Jarvis headvoice. But I have ALL THE OTHER THINGS to do first and should really get Red in the bar before I go making even more plans.
JUST SAYING, THOUGH.
(ALSO. Lexie! Sometime when you are less ded from school we need to keep going with/have more Claudia-Tony. Because YES)

[asynja]

(he's going to post something now just to get back at you; you are aware, yes?)
