Discussion Post: Avengers Infinity War

[inkvoices]

So *takes a deep breath* it is time. THIS is your dedicated space for all things Avengers: Infinity War.

Bring your squee, meta, pics, all the things! As always, please note: UNTIL OTHERWISE STATED (AFTER THE MOVIE HAS BEEN RELEASED WORLDWIDE) THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE WHERE THIS FILM CAN BE DISCUSSED ON BE_COMPROMISED. You know the drill, spoilers are not fun.

A few rules:

1) Do understand that this post will be FULL of spoilers in the comments to this post. If you are absolutely against being spoiled then please avoid this post until you've seen the film. It's okay, you can post here whenever you watch the film and keep it active, so you won't be missing out. There is no end date to the squee.

2) Character bashing and ship wars are assassinable offences. We love differences in opinion and discussing all the things, but we also want to keep this bar a positive fandom space. If you think someone might be hurt by something you're about to say then either don't say it or find a better way of putting it. Please keep in mind that we are about the love.

3) Yes, even if we're all on edge wondering what the hell is going to happen to Nat, and where Clint is, and oh god is anyone going to die and Icannotcopewiththis - Ahem. Deep breaths and play nice :)

4) HAVE FUN!

I think unfortunately she doesn't call Clint, though - I had been mulling over this since I saw the Vanity Fair article that said the same thing, because I hadn't heard it as clear when I watched it...though I had only seen it twice at that point and the first time was like an onslaught of feelings and the second time was wrapping my head around everything, so I definitely accounted for the fact that I might have missed it.

But last night I saw it again and I'm pretty sure she definitely says Klein (if you listen for it you can hear how it differs from "Clint") and spectralarchers confirmed with her post where she saw subtitles: http://spectralarchers.tumblr.com/post/173481099317

I think it totally still works to use the headcanon for fic and other things, though. I'm definitely still going to, at least! If we heard it wrong, chances are most people did too ;)

Humpf. I've seen it only once (RL is a b****) and Clint made sense to me - especially after reading that article. I think I'll stick with it - maybe Fury told her to call Klein (which doesn't make a lot of sense as his name has never been mentioned in the MCU that I know of). But Maria wouldn't necessarily follow that request, would she...? :P

I can't remember if his name was mentioned before or not (I think it was but I don't have the time right now to seek out where and when) but I agree with you - Maria would DEFINITELY call Clint instead...

Or maybe she's like us and heard Clint :) I mean, they were kind of rudely interrupted.

And...hi, that's me, everyone. I'm at work and not logged in by accident, whoops.

Confirming for Klein - I saw it with subs too, so it's a sure thing.

Damn...

[inkvoices]

Aww I thought it was Clint too. Ah well.

[alphaflyer]

What do the subtitlers know ...

Then again, maybe Klein now runs the un-mothballed helicarrier and that's why Fury wanted him called?

Also, maybe he said Klein but Maria just misdialled. In my story, she calls Clint. So there... :P

Oh we can work with it in fanfic either way *grins*

As someone with a hard-of-hearing husband, subtitles can frequently be terrible and misleading, though. //clings to it being Clint
