Joe Russo confirmed Valkyrie escaped, apparently.

Also, Markus and McFeely basically said that they didn't really know what to do about the Age of Ultron credits scene and were doing their own thing. But OK, cool. I guess he got it around 2016. Thanks for checking.

Major Infinity War spoilers below. Three other things: 1. I think our policy for the next year should be to not try to bend everything around Infinity War. We just don't know how Avengers 4 is going to go. This goes either way. So, for example, the fact that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is currently presenting a January 2018 date, but also had an Infinity War hint in its last episode, shouldn't mean we have to bend over backwards to make it go a bit later and Infinity War go a bit earlier. Because who knows, if Avengers 4 in any way in which everyone at least still remembers the deaths of half the universe, then we know the New York reference can't actually work. If Avengers 4 resets everything and no one even knows anything ever happened, then the New York reference can click, with the finger-snap happening during Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and then everything being reversed and the agents are none-the-wiser. We just don't know. Same for the other way around - if Runaways or Cloak & Dagger or a Netflix show presents itself as being set later than Spring 2018, then so be it. No point creating lots of timeline errors in trying to place it before Infinity War, only to have Avengers 4 reset things so it's perfectly fine taking place after. We just don't know, and I feel like the policy should basically be that with the TV stuff, we kind of ignore Infinity War ' s existence/ending until Avengers 4 is out and we know what happens, unless of course, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. does a direct tie-in. 2. Tony's flip phone from Steve says "Wed" "01:21PM". Apparently in the credits scene, Fury's car says "10:24". This works with the time zones - basically, the film spans from 1PM New York to 10:24 wherever-Fury-is, probably around the New York time zone. So it's about 21.4 hours, from Wednesday to Thursday. Also, with the Scotland scenes only shortly after the Attack on Greenwich Village - "breaking news" playing about it, but Tony already reported "missing" - that's probably around 2PM New York. I looked at time zones: --New York clocks change, but Scotland not yet.-- --Scotland clocks change as well.-- Basically, the time zones add evidence to it being no later than April, really. And also, there's the fact that the film begins on a Wednesday. I will factor those in the next time I get a chance to have a crack at the maths. It's reasonable for now, though. Major Infinity War spoilers above. And 3. The "Marvel UK" version of the Ant-Man and the Wasp trailer confirms it... It had been on IMDb for so long, but I hoped it wasn't true... we're getting Ant-Man and the Wasp in August in the U.K., a whole month after the U.S. and most of the world. It really sucks, I don't know how I'm going to manage working on the wiki throughout July and avoid spoilers. Luckily, it's not one I'm massively hyped for, and spoilers won't bother me too much, but still. It just generally sucks. A whole month.
 * January 1st - 2PM New York is 7PM UTC and Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 3:49PM UTC/Scotland, so possible.
 * February 1st - 2PM New York is 7PM UTC and Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 4:45PM UTC/Scotland, so possible.
 * March 1st - 2PM New York is 7PM UTC and Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 5:46PM UTC/Scotland, so possible.
 * March 10th - 2PM New York is 7PM UTC and Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 6:05PM UTC/Scotland, so possible.
 * March 11th - 2PM New York is 6PM UTC and Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 6:07PM UTC/Scotland, so either it's actually at least 2:30PM New York, 1 hour since the fight, and thus 6:30PM Scotland, or it doesn't work. Just about plausible though.
 * March 24th - 2PM New York is 6PM UTC and Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 6:34PM UTC/Scotland, so either it's actually at least 3PM New York, 1½ hours since the fight, and thus 7PM Scotland, or it doesn't work. Still just about could work though.
 * March 25th - 2PM New York is 6PM UTC and 7PM Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 6:36PM UTC and 7:36PM Scotland, so either it's actually at least 3PM New York, 1½ hours since the fight, and thus 8PM Scotland, or it doesn't work. Still just about could work though.
 * April 6th - 2PM New York is 6PM UTC and 7PM Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 7PM UTC and 8PM Scotland, so either it's actually at least 3:30PM New York, 2 hours since the fight, and thus 8:30PM Scotland, or it doesn't work. Still just about could work though.
 * April 20th - 2PM New York is 6PM UTC and 7PM Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 7:29PM UTC and 8:29PM Scotland, so either it's actually at least 4PM New York, 2½ hours since the fight, and thus 9PM Scotland, or it doesn't work. Still just about could work though.
 * May 5th - 2PM New York is 6PM UTC and 7PM Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 7:59PM UTC and 8:59PM Scotland, so either it's actually at least 4:30PM New York, 3 hours since the fight, and thus 9:30PM Scotland, or it doesn't work. Pushing it though, for it to still be "breaking news".
 * May 21st - 2PM New York is 6PM UTC and 7PM Scotland. Dark in Scotland from 8:29PM UTC and 9:29PM Scotland, so either it's actually at least 5PM New York, 3½ hours since the fight, and thus 10PM Scotland, or it doesn't work. This is the absolute latest it could be though, for it to still be "breaking news".

Right, my low-activity period begins now! I'll talk to you guys soon, every now and then.
