lol just got back from seeing it, pretty sure thats the real audio
It is. Wow. The arena scene at the end sounds completely indistinguishable from a horde of chimps screeching.
On that note, probably a longshot, anyone happen to know what the first song in the credits is? The one before that scene. Sounded like maybe Hans Zimmer or something, really bad-ass track. Someone shazam it or something.
As for the movie itself, just saw it. Not gonna really spoil anything, general thoughts: Kang is easily the best thing about the movie and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do next with the character. Majors acts the fuck out of this movie (TBH he's probably too good of an actor to be doing superhero movies) and it looks like he's gonna be a recurring villain throughout the next bunch of movies. Which is very different from the usual "bad guy appears during the team-up bookend movie" formula.
I felt like they scaled back the humor a lot in this one, so not sure why reviews are saying the movie is too jokey. It doesn't scale them back so much that it becomes a bummer either (something other reviews are saying, I hear). I think they struck a decent enough balance here. Wish they would have left in more of the family drama scenes though because as it is the daughter just comes off as very angsty without us really getting a handle on why.
All in all I'd say this is an above-average MCU movie, at least by the post-Thanos lower barometer. The only real complaint I have about it is that there's zero tension at all whenever a female character fights, since female characters never actually lose or even take significant lumps in modern MCU movies. Even against an unstoppable menace like Kang, every time a female character went head-to-head with him I didn't feel any tension whatsoever for their safety, nor should I have, because none of them ever got hurt. Female characters in the MCU just no-sell everything like the Undertaker in 1991 and their attacks are twice as effective as the men's. So I was worried for the safety of the male characters but they just killed the tension around anyone female because you know the showrunners don't have the guts to let the females even get scratched.
