The movie is indeed glorious, easily the best movie in the MCU so far.

The only real objection i have is that they didn't show Xandar's decimation and how Thanos acquired the power stone; seems like a pretty big thing to leave out considering this movie is based on Thanos' quest to obtain the stones. I heard that they also cut out Thanos' backstory, it would have been cool to see it.

I also applaud them for having the guts to end it with the iconic snap moment. It's a ballsy move which is sure to be a subject of controversy.

Galan007
So the post-credits scene...


Confirmed to be teasing Captain Marvel(Carol)... And here's what Kevin Feige had to say about her: "she is the MCU's most powerful hero by far... If you had the collector cards of the Marvel characters and you could see the power levels, she would be off the charts compared to anyone that we've previously introduced in a film."

Wow. #MCUMatriarchy

Galan007
Also going to repost this here, because I didn't realize this thread was a thing yesterday...



First off, great film. Possibly my favorite MCU film to date... They crammed a shit-ton of story into this film, but they did so very cohesively.

Thanos taking a steaming shit on Hulk in h2h right at the opening was great. That said, I thought it was a copout to keep Hulk out of the REST of the film. Didn't care for that.

Really liked how the Black Order was portrayed overall. Ebony Maw was uber AF.

I liked the dynamic between Thanos and Gamora. In fact, Thanos' overall characterization was great imo.

One of the strangest parts for me was Red Skull... Wtf has he become? He came of like some sort of quasi-omniscient entity now.

Thor getting Stormbreaker instead of Jarnbjorn? Meh.

All the Avengers were given their proper respect(except Hulk.)

As for Thanos motivations: he just wants to help bring balance to the universe by destroying half of its populace? Felt like changing his motivations like that was a HUGE missed opportunity to tease some of Marvel's higher-end abstract beings. As everyone knows: in the comics Thanos' ONLY motivation for wiping out the universe was to appease Mistress Death... They shouldn't have changed that, imo.

Doctor Strange foresaw EVERYTHING that is going to happen beyond Thanos snapping-away half of existence, which is why allowing him to obtain all the gems was a necessary evil in the greater scheme of things.

I feel like the stage is now set for "Adam"(and/or Nebula) to enter the fray, usurp the IG from Thanos, undo all the damage he has caused, and perhaps split up the gems again... Because obviously his antics aren't going to stick long term, lol.

You can argue that a more character-centric film like BP is more your style. But in any conceivable terms, this was one of the more ambitious movies in history in terms of its scope, and the sheer volume of characters and groundwork that was laid for it in previous years. When Avengers 1 came out, there was a breathtaking element to it, simply due to the fact that they had pulled off something that most didn't think was possible to do well. While that particular lightning can only be bottled once or twice, AIW hit that same note for me.

Anything negative I'd have to say about it would be picking nits. It was glorious, and I can't wait until next year's installment.

One of the best things about IW, imo, is that it didn't need to be character-centric for the most part because everyone has been built up already and fleshed out.

Bar Thanos at least, and he got his few moments of exploration imo. You could almost say that this is HIS movie, in a sense.

They desperately want their Wonder Woman. Badly. They just either don't have, or don't have the rights to, the character that COULD be the one. And they aren't going to build up Gamora or Mantis now.

As someone who really liked IW and doesn't expect to see Adam Warlock or Nebula have the role they had in the comic, I'm hoping they don't drop the ball with the finale.

Digi
Regarding Red Skull, they might not take it anywhere, tbh. It might have just been a cool throwaway reference for fans. I was halfways expecting Warlock bc of his connection to the Soul Gem, but they didn't introduce him soon enough and would have had to explain a LOT if he just showed up, so I get it.

I also like the implication that Red Skull loved nothing, so he couldn't possess the Soul Gem. Nice character moment for Thanos as well.

Other stuff:
- Not freaking out too much over Carol becoming a SJW proxy. Cap/Tony/Thor have to be at the center of this. If she's some extra muscle that shows up Thor in a scene or something, w/e. As long as she doesn't stupidly solo Thanos Superman/Steppenwolf style, I think we'll be fine.
- Pete's death hit me pretty hard. Yeah, I know it's all being rolled back in the next one. But his last few lines were appropriately tragic.
- I called that they'd end it on the "death snap" and thought it was a nice ending for this installment.
- We have Carol coming out of the woodwork, Hulk's inevitable return, Hawkeye doing...something?, the equally inevitable scene where someone brings back all the dead heroes and they join in the fight again. Some epic moments in store for the next one.
- Tony had nothing special hidden for Thanos. I thought Strange was the most interesting from a tactical standpoint, and I'm hoping the mindf*ck Thanos has done on Stark leads to an EPIC plan from Tony in the next one.

He very well could have, the problem was he was alone and couldn't throw it/him/her down the cliff anyway, but yeah the implication certainly went into that direction, he was a hardcore Nazi at last.

The weird thing was he seemed to have the powers of the Soul Gem anyway since he knew things about Thanos and Gamora without ever meeting them IIRC.

I'll wait for it to play out in future films and hopefully it won't be as bad as I'm thinking it will be.

Also, I don't really know what to say to people who don't enjoy it (and the majority here seem to love it). Taste is subjective, and no one's "wrong" for their opinion. And you can find fault with anything if you try hard enough. But if IW doesn't give you at least a semi-hard nerd erection, what are you in this hobby for?

Damborgson
Okay so:Not as good as I thought. It's probably because I overhyped it in my head but...

The bad:

Thanos should have had his own movie to gather any of the gems that weren't on Earth. There was a lot of time wasted in my opinion, and that could have been Guardians 3. Also, in a movie as packed as this one, how you gonna give Peter Dinklage that much screen time? Captain America could have used more time, not giving Eitri, a character 99% of the movie goers have never heard of, that much. WAYYY too many convenient moments for the heroes. Thanos should have personally killed Thor on that ship, leaving him alive was absurd. He might as well have lowered him into a tank full of lazer sharks. Thanos had weird motivations, it made him feel like some kind of anti hero, when he's definitely a sociopath who enjoys killing. Also, let's be honest, we'd have all preferred to see Thanos beat heroes to death more than watching them turn to ash.

The good:

The first 15-20 minutes or so were probably the most epic in Marvel history. Thanos felt inevitable. Unstoppable. The ambient was perfect, with just enough marvel quip with the dark atmosphere expected from Thanos. Also Thanos raping the Hulk will be watched an obscene amount of time by me later. The entrances were also epic, Captain America, Thor with Stormbreaker and Iron Man in that order were amazing. Also the chemistry between Dr. Strange and Tony was really good, it's about what I expected from them when they'd meet. And to add even more to that, the acting in general was very god on all accounts thumb up

Solid movie, not what I expected is all.

2nd viewing...

#1 in top 5 mcu.

Very very comicbooky yet done so well Imo. Gotta give credit to that brother duo on handling the huge amount of characters, complete with their own egos and storylines. Great mix of levity and gravity. Whew... Just an awesome film.

-Pr-
Random thoughts off the top of my head:

-As a spectacle, the movie is amazing. Huge, great, sweeping parts that really get across how big a deal it is. You actually feel like the universe is at stake.
-The fight scenes are almost all awesome. I felt like the power levels of the Children of Thanos were a bit wonky, especially Corvus and Proxima, but it didn't hurt the movie too much for me. PIS is to be expected.
-Dat Vision nerf though. He got smacked around a fair bit even accounting for the whole "no more phasing" thing.
-Thanos himself is great, imo. His reasoning for what he's doing doesn't really stand up to scrutiny, but I really don't think it's supposed to. He's not Magneto. You're not supposed to side with him, and at no point does the movie try to make you take said side. His reasoning just has to make sense to HIM, and I think it does. I do wish they'd given him a bit more of a reasoning like they did in Infinity Gauntlet, sure, but for the most part it worked I thought. As much as I loathe the wanking the "a villain needs to be the hero in his own story" trope, in this movie it makes sense, and is executed well. He's a well-constructed character, and one of only three or four Marvel villains I really liked. He actually felt like a threat to the heroes. He's good. As is his CGI. He's animated beautifully and looks like Brolin enough to be noticeable. I don't dig the art design, but Starlord commented on it enough that I don't mind.
-I really feel like they missed a beat by not having more of Doctor Strange before this movie. At the end of Doctor Strange he's using energy whips and shields. Impressive sure, but not exactly something that comes with great variety. In Ragnarok we see that he's come along a bit, but I would have liked to see another appearance, even as a cameo, showing us the point between THAT and the guy that briefly had a "transmute-off" with Thanos. And with Strange being easily the most visually interesting hero power-wise, the more of him the better.
-Character wise, I was glad to see that guys like Starlord and Strange got to banter with Tony without getting lost in the shuffle. They had nice scenes, and even Wong, for as little as we got of him, actually felt like he played a part that wasn't just a random background cameo.
-Not nearly enough Cap, but he got one of the best scenes in the movie with "we don't trade lives". I'm guessing he'll be huge in part 2.
-I hope someone sciency shuts up Shuri in part 2. That Banner line made me cringe a bit.
-The tone of the movie is better than I had expected. Comedy was kept mostly to primarily-GOTG scenes (and Drax's line about Gamora made me legit lol), and the funniest lines were more like superhero banter than just bad attempts at humour rammed in to moments when they really didn't belong there. The Russos have actually improved since Civil War, which I like.

Predictions for part 2? Loki dead, Vision rebuilt and alive (sans gem). No ****ing idea about Gamora, though if she does come back, I fully expect her to have the role Nebula had in Infinity Gauntlet.

He's a well-constructed character, and one of only three or four Marvel villains I really liked. He actually felt like a threat to the heroes. He's good. As is his CGI. He's animated beautifully and looks like Brolin enough to be noticeable. I don't dig the art design, but Starlord commented on it enough that I don't mind.
-I really feel like they missed a beat by not having more of Doctor Strange before this movie. At the end of Doctor Strange he's using energy whips and shields. Impressive sure, but not exactly something that comes with great variety. In Ragnarok we see that he's come along a bit, but I would have liked to see another appearance, even as a cameo, showing us the point between THAT and the guy that briefly had a "transmute-off" with Thanos. And with Strange being easily the most visually interesting hero power-wise, the more of him the better.
-Character wise, I was glad to see that guys like Starlord and Strange got to banter with Tony without getting lost in the shuffle. They had nice scenes, and even Wong, for as little as we got of him, actually felt like he played a part that wasn't just a random background cameo.
-Not nearly enough Cap, but he got one of the best scenes in the movie with "we don't trade lives". I'm guessing he'll be huge in part 2.
-I hope someone sciency shuts up Shuri in part 2. That Banner line made me cringe a bit.
-The tone of the movie is better than I had expected. Comedy was kept mostly to primarily-GOTG scenes (and Drax's line about Gamora made me legit lol), and the funniest lines were more like superhero banter than just bad attempts at humour rammed in to moments when they really didn't belong there. The Russos have actually improved since Civil War, which I like.

Predictions for part 2? Loki dead, Vision rebuilt and alive (sans gem). No ****ing idea about Gamora, though if she does come back, I fully expect her to have the role Nebula had in Infinity Gauntlet. Digi is the only one allowed for such long winded posts. sneer

It's ok. I'll loan some of my leftover April character allotment to Pr. Damborg didn't like the film, though, so he gets no quarter.

Digi
And for what it's worth, thumb up to Pr's assessment. The tone was spot-on. The quips weren't cringey and there was a definite gravitas to the proceedings despite the comic book craziness of the plot.

Vision looking up with that facebook eye emoji look to banner nearly made me cringe out of my seat. Way out of character.

Did it seem to anyone else that Cap was legitimately making Thanos struggle here:

?? Yeah made no sense, typical Cap moment that slopped over to the MCU. When I saw that in the trailer I hoped for context like a gem at play or anything like that.

StiltmanFTW
More like grimaced with disbelief, imo. But I see how it could've been interpreted the other way.

It didn't look that way to me.

Nah, it was a symbolic moment that they needed to last for a few seconds, but not a statement of power imo.

?? That was shown in the trailers too. I think Thanos looked perplexed at Cap. Thanos is lucky he didn't get son'd tbh.

I honestly took it as Thanos being surprised by some dude standing up to him like that. A kind of "huh, you're not like the others, are you?" moment.

Dione was mesmerized by Cap's beard... Mesmerized by how good it looks and how it would look on his phukked up prune chin.

When that character(can't remember who said it) said "you're much more of a Thanos" was that a reference to "Dione"?

And would have died if not for the Stormbreaker.

Did Stormbreaker have healing abilities? Even still, like the dwarf said, Thor wasn't just taking on the heat of the star but the force(weight) as well.

Eitri f*cking screamed that Thor needed the hammer, when he saw what state he was in. He was a dead battery without it, it recharged him.

I swear, you thorbag guys are obnoxious. Thor got raped by that star and was about to bleed profoundly through his anus, dying in agony. Lucky for him Groot was there.

JayDaDon
Its a simple question holy shit dude laughing out loud even if you subtract the heat feat(he was in there for quite some time) he still gets the strength feat out of that *shrugs*

Sure, all things considered, it was a great feat.

My favourite one is from the beginning, though. When he cowardly strikes Thanos from behind (failing to do any damage), only to get one-shotted like some dirty kitchen wench not doing her job right.

Digi
Good to see some things remain constant. There's nothing this forum can't ruin with a fixation on feats.

If we can all take something from Inifinity War it's that Thor >>> Hulk and the rest of the avengers. At this point, easily. Resisting a star and all that...

At least until Captain Marvel comes and utterly trashes any white cisgender privileged males in her way

Just hoping CM doesn't trash things too hard. The Avengers movies have always been about the plan, not overpowering the villain(s) with overwhelming force. But honestly, Thanos without the gems is probably << at least Thor (w/Stormbreaker/Mjolnir). That epic shot from Stormbreaker near the end f*cked him up something fierce, and was really the only significant damage he took in the film. Strange made him work the hardest, but he was never really damaged in that fight. Also hope Tony doesn't get sonned by Shuri like Bruce did. I actually really like her as a character, but they can make a better, more progressive statement about a STEM-field female genius without making it painfully obvious that they're "putting her over" (to borrow a wrestling term) by comparing her to the others.

And failing to affect Thanos in ANY way with a sneak attack? Getting manhandled?

If anything, Hulk proved to be much superior to Thor. You can cry now.

Great, now you're just abusing Carver.

1. you're so easy laughing out loud

2. I'm talking about , overpower infinity gauntlet , get Thanos to admit he could have killed him Thor. Not base, recently brutalized Thor, who clearly had a battle off screen where we don't know to what extent he was damaged. Hulk proved he's less than Thor and he's a ***** who hides if you hit him too hard. Thor had his race wiped out in front of him and was viciously beaten, you didn't see him hiding.
