Update- I gave her a light warning (it’s sad, does not end on a happy note), she wanted to know who died, I just told her that a lot of characters died. Her youngest is six, but she said they’ve taught him about death lately with the passing of his grandma’s dog. So if this thread gets a bump in 3 months, it’s me with my update of what she, her husband, and her kids thought of the movie lol

By the end of the film, I was expecting a post-credit scene with Hawkeye at home when the Snap occurs and most/all of the rest of his family disappears.

I wouldn’t be surprised if something like that happened at the beginning of A4.
We get everyone minus Ant-Man/Wasp and Hawkeye reacting to the snap in Infinity War.
Ant-Man and the Wasp will probably feature Hank, Janet, Hope, Luis, Dave, Kurt, Maggie, Paxton and/or Cassie turning to dust in the stinger.
My guess is that A4 will take place a month or two after Infinity War, so to remind everyone of how we got there, the movie could begin like IW did- with cries for help over the Avengers logo, only this time, it’s Clint in trouble, and by the time we see him, he’s alone in his house. He pulls out the Ronin costume and the movie begins.

Or perhaps he saw that by using the time stone, Thanos would be subjecting himself to some potential liability, or attracting the attention of some celestial being that might not otherwise care to stop him.

I made it. Not sure if that's a good thing?

Unless you get creative with Netflix.
BP and Ragnarok aren't supposed to debut there until the fall though, so I'm just going to add them to my Family iTunes this weekend, I think. Both got really good reviews, so I don't mind paying for the title directly....

My personal opinion....and of course this depends on age...but, assuming they are around the 9-13 age...
Allow them the emotional shock.
The only prep I'd give them is that this is a movie with adult themes, which they need to handle with adult emotions...hence why it is PG-13, and under 13s shouldn't see it without their parents.
And then, after the movie, I'd just chat with them the whole way home about the shock ending and how they felt about it, etc...
Seems a rather positive emotionally maturing experience, to me...
But, every kid is different.

Alright, just got home.
I really do love this movie. My coworker friend did not. I think she was in shock that Marvel let the bad guy win. She was genre savvy enough to know that Gamora was going to die, but she was pretty shocked at the end.
Side note- we saw the movie at 8:00. The theater had maybe 40 people in it. That’s not exactly a great number to have in one of the largest theaters in the building on a Friday night.

Every kid that likes these heroes should see it imo, especially if their favorite hero is one that “dies.”
All this damn coddling has made people soft. I’ve been watching movies like Predator and playing Grand Theft Auto since I was around 8.

Did we ever have a superhero movie were the villain overwhelmingly wins in the end? Loved it.
Thor was my favorite overall. Enjoyed how StarLord interacted with the "new guys" displaying his insecurities. Also enjoyed the banter between Stark and Strange. I really thought Gamora was leading Thanos on a wild goose chase that was part of unseen plot to trap him. What a trip!

I grew up on the OT Star Wars and all sorts of Disney movies, but outside of Empire, I don’t think that any had the sense of hopelessness that this one did. With Disney, the good guys won at the end, and with Star Wars, I had the option of putting another VHS tape in the VCR. I’m not saying that kids shouldn’t see the movie, but maybe parents should be ready for a lot of questions/sad kids.

I know Quill is getting a lot of hate right now for his actions, but I was sitting in the theater thinking that his actions make sense, if you look at his character’s journey. He watched his mother die, was kidnapped from Earth as a child, was raised by what were essentially space pirates, killed his father, and watched his adoptive dad die. He’s emotionally stunted at the age of a pre-teen boy, but it shows more in this film because for the first time in decades, Quill is actually with some other humans who, despite their snark, are a lot more mature.
Look at Guardians 1 & 2- Peter Quill wears his heart on his sleeve no matter what the situation is. That wasn’t necessarily going to change in a couple of years.

Effect that has bothered me twice now- Bruce in the Hulkbuster suit post-Snap. You can really tell they edited him into the scene.
