    With wife: MacGyver (the 80s version)

    On the treadmill: making cardio bearable by watching the entire MCU series of movies (plus select Disney+ series) in order. Since the workout is just an hour at a time, shows take 2-3 workouts to complete (or longer, when I get to the series). Just finished Iron Man 3, next up is Thor 2.

    Time well spent, but please for the love that is called Marvel...skip the following:

    Show: Ms Marvel, She-Hulk, The Defenders, Iron Fist
    Movies: The Marvels, Captain Marvel, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Eternals, Thor: Love and Thunder

    Each and one of them is woke trash
    I am a huge Marvel fan, when it comes to the comics i used to have the biggest collection in Europe with over 20.000 comic books, but the ones i mentioned above are pure trash and do no justice to the Marvel Universe. You can feel the wokeness written in script all over (except for Iron First, which was just bad script)

    I couldn't agree with you more...

    Today's treadmill workout finished Thor 2, started Guardians of the Galaxy.

    If we're talking about Marvel productions I dislike, I can add a couple titles to this list (Thor 2 springs to mind), but I am dedicated to watching anything which has direct bearing to the overall storyline, thus anything involving infinity stones and/or introduction of major characters needs to be included. Hence I just suffered through Thor 2, and will watch Captain Marvel when it's time. (I will also watch Shang-Chi, since I'm a sucker for martial arts movies.)

    Call me weird for liking She-Hulk (probably a product of also enjoying Deadpool, so I'm used to the fourth-wall breaking), but I do intend to skip it during this marathon anyway due to its lack of bearing on other productions.

    Along those lines, I'm still debating whether to include the three Tobey Maguire and pair of Andrew Garfield Spiderman movies, since they are now considered canon, and when to include them if so. I like the first two Tobey films...

    Still What We Do In The Shadows but now, also, Shrinking and the first 3 episodes of Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage but I may not continue watching it.

    I picked it up because of Young Sheldon clips that played on my youtube shorts thingy and really liked them but it took 3 episodes to get me to even chuckle and Mandy's mom is annoying.

    Today's treadmill workout finished Captain America 2: Winter Soldier. Next up is Avengers 2: Age of Ultron.

    Side note: I may want to rethink jumping into a movie if I know in advance I will not finish it that same week. Stopping a movie halfway through on Tuesday, knowing you'll finish it Wednesday is one thing; stopping halfway through on Thursday, knowing you won't finish it until the following Tuesday is a long gap between...

    Side side note: I finally watched Deadpool & Wolverine, and it was so worth the wait! Rolling on the floor laughing, all the cameos, the parade of Wolverines... I loved it! Unfortunately, I think I'm also going to have to NOT include it as part of my Marvel Gym Marathon, as certain scenes are not exactly public-gym-friendly, IYKWIM.

    Today's treadmill workout finished Avengers 2: Age of Ultron. Tomorrow will begin Ant-Man.

    The Marvel appetizers are done (up through Avengers), almost done with the mandatory-just-swallow-it-and-move-on veggies (Ultron, Ant-Man). Very soon I get to the true main course movies (Civil War, Spiderman, Thor 3) before the dessert (Infinity War, End Game). Can't wait!

    Agree to disagree, my friend. I thoroughly enjoy Thor 3! Yes, I fully realize it's a misbegotten mishmash of storylines, not least of which is the World War Hulk I had hoped would be a stand alone, but I still enjoy the film, as I did the first Thor. Thor 2/4, however, the world can live without (though Thor 2 is still required viewing due to its introduction of the reality stone).

    Finished Ant-Man today with half an hour still to go on my workout (short movie), chose to NOT get another movie started since it could be over a week before my next gym session (just listened to music the rest of the time). Next up will be Captain America: Civil War!

    Went to the theater to watch Gladiator II, my expectations weren't that high after reading reviews but I really enjoyed it.

    Just finished The Witcher as well as Wheel of Time. Loved them both. But the Witcher was just epic.
