The Infinity Gauntlet, with its boundless energy as both a Deus Ex Machina and McGuffin could've given the universe boundless resources.

Agreed Thanos can literally control reality itself with the Gauntlet yet he chose one of the dumbest solutions possible.

Well movie Thanos did that. Comic Thanos wasn’t looking for a solution. He just wanted to kill people to impress death so he could get his freak on. Unfortunately for him death wasn’t impressed/liked Deadpool more

No. Current hypotheses state that the Earth has a peak capacity that will cause the population growth to naturally plateau. And even if we discount that, Thanos is still wrong. Killing a bunch if people won't solve overpopulation. At best, it'll delay the problem until later.

Oh trust me I know all about that story line and while I think Thanos is an idiot for not doing something like say doubling the resources in the universe I prefer movie Thanos motivation to comic Thanos motivation.

I'm so glad they didn't do the "wants to bone Death" angle. That would have just been stupid.

Eh I disagree. I mean Thanos killing trillions to get into someones pants is kinda dumb while at least movie Thanos had a goal that by itself was not all that bad and can let us sort of sympathize with Thanos.

The problem is that the infinity gauntlet makes him look like an idiot.

Like, honestly, I would like Infinity War more if the Infinity Gauntlet wasn't involved at all. He's the Mad Titan, he could just try to halve Earth's population, Jesus complex and all.

Yeah but again he is the Mad Titan and people do tend to do stupid things when they are have much better options. Beside this way Thanos is not simply evil more like a guy trying to do what he thinks is right even if what he is doing is horrific.
