lineage (lineage) · through Thor: The Dark World (2013), which they acted in:
The Avengers ⇒ Thor: The Dark World (the host's read).
Avengers ends with the team scattering, which is why the Phase 2 sequels can stand alone.
“And also, Joss Wheaton's like master stroke at the end of Avengers is like, we're not a team.”

-
lineage (lineage) · through Thor: The Dark World (2013), which they acted in:

Game of Thrones (2011): 1 line
-
craft (craft) · through Thor: The Dark World (2013), which they acted in:
Game of Thrones ⇒ Thor: The Dark World (the host's read).
The film aims for a grounded, muddy fantasy in the Game of Thrones manner, away from Branagh's version.

-
lineage (lineage) · through Thor (2011), which they acted in:
Masters of the Universe ⇒ Thor (the host's read).

Stan Lee: 1 line
-
lineage (lineage) · through Thor (2011), which they acted in:
Stan Lee ⇒ Thor (the host's read).
The Donald Blake identity came from Stan Lee's 60s devotion to the secret-identity trope; the movie keeps it only as a fake ID gag.
“in the 60s, Stanley was a little slavishly devoted to like the classic superhero comic trope, so you needed a secret identity”
