  • Interesting, but weirdly off with regards to the specific shared universes.

    For star wars there are only six characters we see naturally age into an elderly state on a relatively normal scale–all of whom were either poor, deeply religious, or lived a life of considerable stress.

    In star trek we have a lot of long-lived races, time travel shenanigans and the rest, but humans on earth are shown to age considerably slower than we do now. The recent Picard show had the best cohort, although that group also started with a cameo from the original series which established the longer lives.

    It’s a rich area for speculative fiction, though. Especially if meaningful “upload” of human minds are ever possible.

    If you held on until Ant Man 3, I presume you skipped DrStange 2, Black Panther 2, and "Thor: bring your kid to the movie lot*?

    The MCU’s been putting out “meh” and “camp” movies for years. (Thor 2). I still go because I have a fairly low bar for date-night, and they’re still not the worst movies I’ve sat through. But I don’t know if I’d want to re-watch any of the ones I mentioned.
