So at some point did all the other Avengers and friends just agree that they weren't going to ever ask Bucky which other famous historical assassinations between the late-1940s and 2016 were "really him;" or did they and they just ALL weren't so it's good?
Right but like even if they "understand" he still KNOWS the answer to all the "unsolved" ones; yeah? So unless there's a standing "rule" about it EVERY long-ish trip for Bucky must just be endless:
And you KNOW some people are gonna have REALLY specific "too far" limits where it's just immediately going to be a fight to the death. And it wouldn't even be any of the geopolitics stuff - if it turns out The Winter Soldier did Tupac/Biggie someone's just gonna pull his head off
Thing is, if there ever actually WAS "The Guy" you could meet and ask these things, the answers would always end up being "No, I did the fifty people who never became 'The Other ____' or 'The Next ___' you never heard of because real covert state murder doesn't LOOK like itself."

Always watch the use of qualifiers like "complicated by" or "a desire to" in business-press answers, especially from movie and TV executives for whom "this was mentioned in a meeting by someone" is worth priceless face-saving P.R. cover day to day.
WB has been (and continues to be!) using "We ARENT forcing filmmakers to over-coordinated because Multiverse!" as a DC projects' selling point vs Disney/Marvel; they're doing two Batman and multiple Joker actors, etc - two Darkseids (one from a canceled directors cut)...
...would've been a non-issue and non-story. But obviously it's something that would've "COME UP" just in logistics, and now gossip-minded extrapolators on either end can imagine a scenario where their preferred version was getting "fought for" in some fashion.
ALSO: Warner Bros - whichever exec is REALLY into scenes - regardless of genre! - where people go "something something every civilization! something legends something myths are real!" while gesturing at 'cave paintings' of cereal mascots or whatever? Let someone else give notes
And I'm not even kidding - I FULLY expect to shortly see some formerly-respected Irish actor holding up a spelunking torch to illuminate a wall of 'primitive runes' and be like:
"Heart... Star... Clover... Horseshoe... ...The Blue Moon."
I feel like the key people are missing in the #SpiderMan3 stuff is they confirmed Doctor Strange before anyone else. That means you could conceivably start the story off in any kind of weird/off status quo because eventually a wizard is going to show up and say...
..."yeah actually you're in the wrong reality because of weird shit that happened in my movie and that TV show. See, here's two other you's - this kind of took some looking."
New Prediction: They'll do the "Everyone loves Spider-Man!"-verse HOUSE OF M for the fake one 😏
i.e. give Holland's Peter the "best case scenario" version of the life he'd want (Mysterio thing solved, everyone loves him, basically the new Iron Man, regularly throttles villains) ...until: "Sorry, this is all fake - to win, you have to go back to your Life Sucks reality."
“[Warner Bros] had a decades-long legacy as being known as the most talent-friendly studio. Now [they've] gone from that to a studio that in starburst colors lit up a sign that says, 'We don’t give a fuck about talent.’” - Anonymous
The most eyebrow-raising detail in the THR piece is the implication that WB was partly motivated by seeing their 2021 slate as a money-loser even without the pandemic, as it's hard to argue with: Apart from WW84, they had a lot of movie *I* was excited for... but iffy prospects?
Like... I *loved* "KING OF THE MONSTERS," but audiences didn't turn out for it and if "GODZILLA VS KONG" hadn't already been in production would that even have been *made* in the form it was? "SUICIDE SQUAD" is an apology/do-over sequel to a failure, "DUNE" is a dice-roll...
