Oh.. It appears I no longer need to pay extra to watch it on the streaming network I am already paying a subscription to, so I clicked it!
OMG! This movie was so good!
Plus it has Scarlett Johansson, which makes it triple good!
So... I recommend that you watch it too!

I am not (North) American, so I wont be offended by a mere trifle like different taste! 
But I'd still say, your loss!

Speaking of Aussies ... the 'Last Cab to Darwin' is a good movie ...

Incidentally I did live in Darwin for like 5 years me think. And did the Brisbane to Darwin drive like 6 or 7 times! 
But I haven't watched that movie. Trailer looks cool.

Personally I had already more than enough of the Marvel movies right after the second Spiderman one. As in, the Tobey Maguire version from 2004.
I didn't make it much farther with the X-Men movies.
Hollywood accountants would disagree, but personally as a viewer, I think the comic book franchises are the worst thing to have happened to movies. What has been made since??
I miss good movies.

Makes the good movies that come along that much better! They are still making them, just not getting any attention.

Making mostly bad movies, so the okay-ish seem like masterpieces by comparison? I see...

I'm sitting in a dark bedroom with my hubby sleeping behind me, unable to keep myself entertained because I'm burnt on coding.
With rare exceptions, I only sleep for four hours at a time, tops. That means I'm up at weird hours pretty much every day.
What the heck do you do with your time at midnight, assuming making noise isn't on the table?
Maybe I need a whole new set of hobbies. Meh.

Move to the study and close the door behind me...
Me too is at 4 - 4 1/2 hours sleeping in one run - I'm developed a pattern to work until after midnight, than sleep, than read, than work...

I don't have a study, although one could be arranged, with some doing. We'd have to rearrange.
My other half is a very sound sleeper, so I don't mind being in the same room as long as I have something to do. Reading is fine if I'm in the right mood to curl up with a book, but I've grown finicky as to what I'll read as I've gotten older for some reason. I'm less easily impressed maybe, and not great at tracking down impressive works.

After being "switched on" all day (ie. coding, cooking, shopping, playing games, making plans for the coming weeks etc.) I generally reserve the evenings for "shutting down" time. This means switching off most stimulating things and cracking on some mindless TV or a background movie, then an hour or so before going to bed I'll crack open YT on my iPad and watch some really mindless videos 'til it's time to call it a night!
I tend to find without having the time to properly wind down I can end up going to sleep thinking about too much (whether it's work-related or just thinking about future plans) and in those situations I can end up being awake at 4am It's really important to draw that line at some point in the day where you can commit to shutting down the laptop/computer.
Edit Should note that my wife generally goes to bed about 4 hours before I do. With her being in the bedroom it gives me that freedom to mess around and watch stuff.

I'm glad you found something that works for you. That's not my issue though. In my case, my sleep condition is a comorbid symptom of something I've got going on between my ears. It's neurological and not fixable, so I am learning to live with it, but the biggest challenge for me is what to do with all the empty space.

Fill it.
I've noticed that when the brain is to tired to do actual work, there's still enough energy to fill it with knowledge.

There's nothing wrong with not needing much sleep. Up to about 15 years ago, I needed only 6 hours sleep a night, so I spent those extra hours reading whatever I didn't have time for during the day.
I would suggest that you find something (other than work) to fill in the time. This could be studying a subject (plenty of stuff is available online), craftmanship (the quiet kinds, such as knitting or jewelry making), or anything else that takes your fancy.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
