Oh shut it. I heard enough. I'll judge oft myself but I'd bet my house that this movie is far better than that pile of shit Batman v. Superman.

Reviews will trickle in until the opening. Nothing to worry about.

Love that these directors get Thanos. I was always worried about Whedon.

Whedon would make Thanos a quip machine.

And that's a bad thing, why?

I never understood why having a sense of humor undercuts the menace of a villain. To me, it just adds depth.

We've all learned from MoS and BvS that a lack of humor is not only not a sign of depth, but is probably a sign of the opposite.

Yeah like Loki was a quip machine right? Just like the Operative in Serenity right? I'll give you the fact that Ultron made too many corny quips but there's a reason for Ultron to be quippy, he's Tony Stark's baby

👆 Sure have a character be dark and menacing and terrifying, but for god sakes tell a joke once in a while

To each their own.

That's true. I really love The Avengers and Whedon in particular, but I know a lot of people don't care for him.

Both have their place. But Thanos should not be cracking jokes.

Yeah he really shouldn't.

Well, seeing as it's the Russo brothers doing Infinity Wars, I think we're fairly safe.

Whedon recently admitted the filming of AOU broke him.

Whedon fairweather fan jumping onto the new-shiny is all. Pay it no mind, Whedon doesn't.

Avengers one was great but part two wasn't. I've always been fair. I prefer the Russos but you can favor Whedon. It's fine.

^ All aboard the new bandwagon...I guess.

Even with all the early positive buzz from CW, the Russos' will still need the directors from the other upcoming Marvel movies to pull through to make the most of Infinity War IMO.

Russos deliver a more serious tone which I prefer especially when it comes to Thanos. Whedon still delivered the avengers which is we some but part two broke the man. It also wasn't anywhere near as good IMO.

Yep. Claims to not like Captain America, wasn't impressed with the Civil War trailer at all, but once the hype for this film went atmospheric, he quickly jumps on.
