I was so NOT HAPPY to see Val again, and to interrupt that great scene with Yelena at the grave? WTF?? And I don't give a SHIT about Clint Barton in the MCU at this point. The (male) screenwriter was like, "I love to do scenes like that, interrupt the big mourning scene with Val blowing her nose and dumping all over it." And I was just like, yeah, that sounds like a Hollywood male screenwriter, all right.
Incomplete, that's a better word for it! Like with TWS, the ending of that is such a beautiful setup for a bunch of stories -- Nat going off to find herself (INSERT SOLO MOVIE HERE), Steve and Sam going to find Bucky, whatever Bucky's up to now that he's woken up, the fall of SHIELD, &c &c. All those Up All Night To Get Bucky fics. ....and then it turns out canon wasn't really interested in any of that stuff. //cries
