I did not know that, hopefully that doesn't distract when watching Ant-Man (like Ms Lily isn't distracting enough).

Well, considering we still don't know whether Soul Stone is actually on Earth or not, well...anything's possible. Though a bit far-fetched.

Heart-Shaped Herb could be the products of Soul Stone, tbh.

Damn right.

I heard at least one person cry behind me off to the left, and some girls behind me sniffling and holding back the tears.

Some deaths surprised me, i still think that either cap or iron man should have died (and when ironman survived i thought right, thanos will go to earth, and just flatten cap or something, but he is still kicking). Black Panther, Spider man and Doctor Strange i did not see coming, neither did i see all the guardians dying too, i thought Quill might live alongside rocket at least. Didnt think scarlet witch would die either.

Saw falcon dying as one of the secondary characters, thought wong was going to die too. Vision and loki i saw coming, the former was guaranteed basically. Thought Thor was going to get murdered at the end too.


But yeah.. fucking people died something fierce. It hit the feels.


Also Thanos is fucking awesome, Brolin did such a good job

Brolin really hit the nail. He's one good actor, portraying Thanos as a compelling villain with well, every motivations needed. Also yeah, those deaths are definitely not within our minds. What I am most depressed at, is that in the end, Loki got his redemption (he turned into a definitely morally good character), but that redemption costs him his death. You can see how Loki and Thor actually became really close again as brothers.

I didn't see Quill and Gamora being a couple, tbh. I know they have the similar interests in each other, though.

Yeah im glad Loki went out that way, because if he actually went evil again after ragnarok i would have been fed up.

I'll never cease to be glad over the fact that movies come out just a little bit earlier in my country than they do in the US, so I'm usually safe from all of the spoilers. That being said... by gawd, I loved Infinity War.

Really bummed about Loki, tho. Specially since his death is probably final, given its timing and fashion. ;_;

(Plus, I lowkey ship Thorki :blush: )


Also, Thanos. They did a heck of a job with Thanos, considering what little development he'd gotten in past films and how "meh" it had all been up to this point. Could have been painfully generic and forgettable... but it wasn't. :3

There was a surprising amount of sniffling at the end from all over the audience in my screening.

My screening felt like a convention, it was great. There weren't that many pretty people there, lots of oily hair. Clothes were either too small or too big, people with volume issues. I fucking missed that since this shit has gone mainstream. My people were out again. And they were fucking loud. I have to watch the movie again because the crowd covered a lot of dialog.

As I just said elsewhere-
If you didn't see that ending coming you weren't paying attention.


The Hulk not wanting to come out because he got his ass kicked was a nice tiny arc (and in a movie with this much, tiny arcs are all you got).


Found something out about myself when Black Panther ceased to exist (biggest gasp from the audience) and then they cut to M'Baku and I found myself going, "You better fucking not."


On the fading aways, Spider-mans was gut wrenching even though you know this will all be undone.


Peter Dinklage.


Holy shit, Red Fucking Skull.


The fact that they're actually able to get the best of Thanos from time to time but he's able to to turn the tide at the end each time is actually interesting. He's essentially the hero of his own story and following that arc. If we were watching this movie 'on Thanos' side' it would have the normal arc for a superhero movie where he struggles to overcome the odds. Plus, it will feel less like Justice League where everyone else was stalling Steppenwolf for Superman to handle, these guys are actually making a dent in Thanos and Captain Marvel will just be that extra power to push it over the edge.


Man, have we been conditioned for multiple post credits. People were livid when the action credits ended and there wasn't a scene.


I fucking love Spider-man


Still bummed that 'Get this man a shield' didn't result in him getting a round shield that he threw.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

After seeing IW, I'm not convinced that that is the truth.

I liked Infinity War, great start and at the end I was like 'wait, this is not how it's supposed to end :blink: '. I blame Quill, he screwed up one of the two chances the Avengers had.

And poor Vision even had to die twice :(

I considered it but not like this.


The Hulk not wanting to come out because he got his ass kicked was a nice tiny arc (and in a movie with this much, tiny arcs are all you got).

And another example for trailers always lie.


Peter Dinklage.

This time not appearing as a dwarf but as a giant space dwarf. Because somehow only dwarves can forge something strong.


Holy shit, Red Fucking Skull.

Fucking Red fucking Skull, that was awesome and unexpected, I thought Weaving didn't want to come back.


I fucking love Spider-man

I saw the Venom trailer just before IW, in hindsight I guess this explains why there's no Spider-Man in that movie.


Still bummed that 'Get this man a shield' didn't result in him getting a round shield that he threw.

That was to be expected as his shield is the Avengers HQ.

Less than the price of a single ticket and this was like the fifth or sixth movie I had seen in April, so effectively free.
