Great read!

late to this thread. my apologies. what surprised me the most in this movie was thanos himself. besides being a bad*ss, he actually had feelings (loss,remorse,etc). i didn’t expect that. kudos to the writers. also glad that stan lee was able to hang around to see this take off the last decade.

did feel bad for the scarlet witch. after all, she lost her vision

I wonder how Agents of Shield, Inhumans, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Defenders, Punisher, Runaways, and Cloak & Dagger will be affected by the Infinity War?

I bet only Agents of SHIELD will address it at all.

Another good read on how IW’s ending makes audiences feel, no matter what happens in A4.

Good pairing with this article on “The Young Girls of Rochefort”, which articulates a similar point.

This guy really didn’t need to make it that long.

Spoiler: Agents of SHIELD Sub-plot

So if/when Deke disappears, will it be because Fitz or Simmons is dead, SHIELD broke the time loop, or because of The Snap?

And how will they know....?

Movie starts:
Me: "Okay, so Thanos is the bad guy."

Thanos reveals his master plan, and why he wants to carry it out:
Me: (Thinking about a lot of the global and economic problems facing the world today)
"Okay, so how exactly is Thanos a bad guy???"

Seriously, folks. He's got it figured out. He's got it figured out better than anyone. This has to be the greatest, hardest-to-root-against villain I've ever watched. (Minus the way he treats his daughters... That was a d*ck move).

I take this post as your willingness to turn to ash for the greater good

I’m not sure how accurate this is (and it doesn’t include M’Baku, the Collector, or Red Skull), but I found a character screen time break down on Reddit:

With the power of the Gauntlet he could have fixed all those problems without killing anyone.

This seems ridiculous to track home pre-video. You would need to sit with a timer for each person and start and stop it. Plus many people are in the same scene together. So you would need multiple timers going at once.

Just like any other megalomaniac who's sure that HIS/HER solution is the best for everyone...

It just seems so early to be doing that (first weekend packed theaters vs third weekend normal theaters). Like, I’ve only watched it once, and I know that it’s probably going to take a few times for me to just sit through that end scene without blinding myself with tears

Made checking my stopwatches kinda blurry ...
