“Et Tu, Supernatural?”
In 2019 an era ended when Marvel’s Endgame showed in the theatres. By the Gods, do you remember the badass moment “on your left” with Cap or how Natasha sacrificed herself? Or when– Sorry, I got distracted there for a moment. I just love this movie and how they gave us fans everything we wanted.…
