Apparently they're on a clock because it was classified a couple of weeks ago and cinemas have it waiting to go, and it's definitely a delay and not just incorrect reports because all these steps point to what usually would be a release within a week or so. Pretty much has to come next week though. I'm not too desperate anyway, the Endgame trailer was the one we were all waiting for. Yeah, me neither. I'd rather they focus on Captain Marvel PR.

BEJT wrote: Oh OK cool, didn't realise that second number of the day was at all visible. Sounds like it doesn't matter too much considering all the options are very close together and also work, and that the date is so hard to make out. 19th would be great though, and allow us to place it almost in the exact same place just with a little bit of actual hard evidence to pinpoint the placement. Thank you for checking this! You're welcome, but it'd be cooler if others weighed in. I can't be the only one that bought the set. I wish they used the same monitor in "The Honeymoon" for Deke's operation because they used the awesome clear shot but it was a different screen with vitals and no dates. Argh! But I'm definitely thinking Principia was still December no time skip until between Principia and Devil Complex then a couple days between All Roads Lead and Option 2, Infinity War opens before Option 2 and runs parallel up to The End mostly then the Snap, the teaser, the Ant-Man and Wasp teaser. I'm still on the fence about Ant-Man and Wasp being on March 18 or 25 but I guess the former to allow more time between the ending and the teaser based on interviews like the EMPIRE ones.

BEJT wrote: Yeah this was the problem. I spoke to a relative of mine, who's a lawyer (though also in the U.K.), and she said that it's possible that after 18 months someone might have applied for the remaining 6 months to be halved - however, she did also say that it may be different in the U.S./specifically California since the U.S. often varies by state. And I did see some things suggesting time cannot be taken off because house arrest is your compromise, and your motivation to behave well is that if you don't, you will return to prison. But like you say, there's contradictory information and things and it's all a bit tricky.

Still, there's a few things (time off might be possible anyway, could be going by German rules, could be a unique case because of the negotiations between Germany and the U.S., could be a unique case because of the Accords, MCU laws could be slightly different, like you say just a choice to sentence him to a certain number of months that is actually slightly less than 2 years) that could mean it doesn't go all the way to June 2018 (even if, purely based on Ant-Man and the Wasp, it does very much seem like it should be a full 24 months). That's true. Was he extradited to California then sentenced or was he sentenced in Germany then extradited. I figured Steve dropped everyone off where they wanted to go and thus, Scott cut the deal once Steve dropped him off in California. Hmm.

BEJT wrote: I'm sure there would be a backlash with recasting, especially if they retconned the shows out of canon. That would just be ridiculous, and I know Feige's not a big fan of Marvel Television and the divisions don't get along too well, but that would just be disrespectful and unfair when these were always sold and presented and made as official MCU canon. I know I, at least, would be very annoyed. I'd only be worried that all the people who don't watch Marvel TV (especially the people who don't watch and then say "Well it's not really canon") would be excited by it and say, "Oh great I don't ever have to watch them and can watch the film people do this stuff properly!"

But yeah, I'm going to maintain until further evidence that these won't be recast or retconned.

Some Disney executive just said something about there being a chance that they'll save these shows but I'm not going to hold my breath. Since last time, I've become more sold on the fact it's important the deal is 2 years and hopefully in the long term, the characters revert to Marvel Studios' pocket and they stay there whether they get used again or not, it's more important Marvel has them period.

BEJT wrote: I'm hoping that it's more like 36 hours after Season 1 because it could get a bit problematic with Christmas Day. Good point.

BEJT wrote: Not sure that it will span a few months, but maybe a couple of months. I doubt they'll address Christmas and New Year unfortunately because I'm not convinced (especially with how contradictory Season 1 was) that they know exactly when this is happening, but hopefully we can make it work nonetheless. Yeah, with the open house, Chase being on the lacrosse team (which is February to May for high school), the dance, etc. - but at least they don't have to deal with a school schedule in season 2.
