The Place to Go for Emotional Support
Time

Hi,

I hope this is the correct place to post a question like this, but finding a correct answer has been stressing me out a bit. I have a disabling medical condition that requires me to have a care giver attend to some of my needs.

My question is that the person helping me is called my "Care Giver", but what is the term they would use for me, the person getting care?  I'm not their patient, and care recipient seems kind of awkward.  Anyone have any idea?

I don't get what that is or how it fits.

 It is for that person in the forums who tends to regularly point out obvious factual errors in other peoples posts, and who causes the original posters to go back and retract (edit) the incorrect information.

It's not strictly necessary but episode 19 leads directly into AoU.

 I thought that was very cool how you can edit the last scene of that episode (with Coulson's very last line) with the very first shot of Age of Ultron.

I have enjoyed all of season 2 of AoS, but I just wish that they would have had chosen a better actress for the role of Skye's mother.

The rise of Hydra in Winter Soldier brought Tony back into the field to fill the void left by the fall of SHIELD. Similarly, in between the search for Bucky (which is referenced in AoU) Cap has been joining the other Avengers to bust Hydra strongholds.

Phase two continued the setup that started in Phase one for the ultimate showdown in Phase three with Thanos.

 I understand this. I'm just still feeling let down by what "Iron Man 3" turned out to be. A wasted opportunity, and a film that does not seem to be necessary viewing like all the others are. If you left "Iron Man 3" out, the only continuity issue there seems to be is the operation to remove Tony's chest reactor. Thor 2, Cap 2, and GotG seem to have much more to do with the coming Thanos arc.

I always enjoyed how the phase 1 movies seemed to flow seamlessly into the first Avenger's film. Unfortunately, that was not the case with the phase 2 movies. "Age of Ultron" seems to fit in more with what has been going on in the "Agents of Shield" TV show then the stand alone films of phase 2. This new film just does not hook in very cleanly with the events and character development of "Iron Man 3" and "Captain America 2". With "Iron Man 3" Tony's character was basically retiring, and "Cap 2" had Rogers apparently running off to track down Bucky / Winter Soldier. But "Age of Ultron" has the two of them firmly involved in Hydra-smashing business at the beginning of the film, as if the two endings from Iron Man 3 and Captain America never happened.

When Should we see the Falcons Mandibles out the window?

Han seated should not be able to see the Falcon's Mandibles at all, but someone standing like the guy in the second photo should be able to.

Standing in that position, your POV should be something like...

But with the Holiday Special's Millennium Falcon, they could not afford mandibles, or much of anything else.

Non-Spoiler

Avengers: Age of Ultron

I was kind of disappointed in this one.  I can't quite put my finger on why yet.

The first Avengers film had a much better flow,  and the battles in this film seemed a jumbled mess to me.  So for me, this film was a bit better then Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but not as good as the first Avengers film.
