This is a tough one because in the comics he was snapping the universe in half to impress his girl friend death. MCU tweaked it and gave him a “noble” purpose but has him going about it in the wrong way.

. What were Groot's final words?

Additional sad revelation: upon watching the film again, Rocket's earlier conversation with Thor where Thor tearfully bucks up, saying he's got nothing left to lose, and Rocket grumbles, "Me personally, I could lose a lot," plays a lot differently once you know this. When I saw the movie the first time, Rocket's muttering got a small laugh because everyone assumed he's thinking about his guns or souvenirs or his own hide, but watching it again it appears he was thinking about Groot.

Groot and the rest of his team/adopted family. Poor Rocket ends the movie only knowing that Groot has faded away, he has no idea about Quill, Gamora, Mantis, and Drax.

Finally got a chance to see this. Why didn’t Doctor Strange just cut off Thanos’ arm? The beginning of the movie established that his portals can sever limbs.

It shows they're able to close the portals with living things are inside them, but doesn't show them opening them on living things.

Right, but they had Thanos bound. They could have pulled his arm through a portal then. Or one could have been opened as he swung a punch.

Obviously Strange looked into it when he saw 14 million possible outcomes. Somehow it wouldn’t work. Trust him, lol.

I know this would be incredibly depressing, but at Comic Con this year, I really hope the Marvel panel has an “In Memorium” video like Game of Thrones does every year. Really would help everyone get in the mood for the discussion lol
Anyways, I’m assuming that’s when they’ll announce the Avengers 4 title.

I bring you bad news - http://collider.com/marvel-skipping-comic-con-2018/
It'd be pretty long honoring several billion trillion beings.

Wow that’s upsetting, I was actually really looking forward to watching the Captain Marvel panel.

So to add to the kids discussion. Took my daughter to it this week. She is 5, but is a really mature kid. I simply reminded her it's just a movie before we went (FYI, her favorite is Scarlet Witch, followed shortly by Black Widow). We walked out of that, and she said she loved it. She said it's now her 3rd favorite movie. Still blown away by how well done that movie was.

Haha, it goes back to what you talked about a while ago, the girls gravitating to the girl superheros. Though she does really like Thor cause I look like him (long blonde hair and beard). But she wasn't broken up in the least about Scarlet Witch. Not sure if it's cause she didn't fully grasp it (though she completely understood the snap), or because she is able to put it in the context of being a movie and just for entertainment. I half worried she may be upset about it (though like I said, she's been into stuff above her age for a while. She was obsessed with Nightmare Before Christmas when she was like 3), but she was super happy and excited after it. She's already talking about Captain Marvel and Avengers 4. All I know is I'm glad I got her into something not involving Princesses

Omg, I have little cousins (they're my cousin's kids, so like first cousins once removed) who are obsessed with Nightmare. They're 4 and 2 now, but for Halloween last year they were Sally and Zero. The 4 year old absolutely loves anything with skulls on it... but thinks Darth Vader is scary.Haha, it goes back to what you talked about a while ago, the girls gravitating to the girl superheros.

I would really like Disney/Marvel to make some sort of toy line in the vein of Star Wars: Forces of Destiny. I think that dolls/action figures of Okoye, Nakia, Shuri, Valkyrie, Natasha, Gamora, Mantis, Wanda, and Hope (and eventually Carol) would probably do well in the sales department, Disney just needs to make them.

Just finally caught this film. I see this thread as my support group.
