Some of you like Disney's version of things better. That's fine. I don't.

Their rewrite / redo of the Mandarin was a joke.

No Adam Warlock in Infinity Saga is too.

Cuckfeet the NuBlizzard worshipper appearing as expected.

These two things are not equal, though. Not even fucking close. Also the Mandarin rewrite/redo was IM3 not IM2.

Nah man, should totally introduce Adam Warlock (who was technically introduced in GoTG2) for the first time in Infinity War as a Deus Ex-type. I'm sure people would totally love that!!!!

I've read Infinity Gauntlet from start to finish. It is an amazing story. It is epic in its trappings. It is NOT, however, what the Russo Brothers were trying to recreate; They merely were inspired by it, not adapting it. Literally like 4 panels or so in the comics that were directly pulled into the film.

To get bent out of shape because of Adam Warlock not being a thing in Endgame is... silly.

This is amounts to the rock golems that came out of the woods in the Noah movie

We think it'd be really cool if....!


Hollywood thinks their ideas are better and I don't

this.

I didn't even bother with IMAX this time because the seating is inferior to another theater with lazboy/recliner seating. Also IMAX is a further drive for me.



What a sour-puss.

Phantom Menace is bad but I refuse to believe your theater went quiet and you all were pissed at the end. I remember being hyped from Darth Maul and ready for the next one. The theater was NOT quiet for me and in general people enjoyed it. It really wasn't until EMO-Anakin ruined the next 2 that the whole prequel trilogy got shit on. Phantom Menace was probably the best of the prequels. I have 3 main gripes: Anakin too young, Midichlorians, Jar Jar. Not enough to absolutely silence a movie. Darth Maul is still a standout character from the prequels.

Based on your grumblings the past 24 hours, I think you're doing everyone else a favor by not going.
you can refuse to believe it all you like. midnight of Spring 1999, Staten Island, bunch of drunk late 20s italian assholes just like me who practically worshipped the OT Star Wars sitting through 2 hours of CGI bunny rabbits and a little retarded kid pod racing who somehow becomes the most intimidating character in movie history and you think we were fucking cheering? really, is it that hard for you to believe?

Adam Warlock was nothing but a Deus Ex Machina in the Infinity Gauntlet series, glad they left him out of the movies. All the other heroes do all the work, and he just sneaks in to take the Gauntlet. It was a stupid plot.

Ya that's why Disney bought Marvel instead of coming up with their own incredibly successfuly ideas for a super hero universe

There's no point in arguing, people instantly tip their hands these days to a trained eye

No I was more noting you can still have a good/great Infinity Saga without Warlock, especially when the character hasn't been established in the slightest yet, but the Mandarin fuck up was just terribad. The IM2/3 correction was just a "hey btw" note.

there's quite a gap between cheering and theater going dead silent, though. I remember most people digging Maul and the lightsaber fight at the end, with a good bit of excuses like "first movie just setting things up" for the rest. Jar Jar hate was pretty universal, although maybe not nearly as loud 10 minutes after the movie as it would grow in the weeks and months after.

i dont know what to tell you, only thing i can convey it as , you see your favorite sports team at the stadium, as the game starts the crowd goes wild after the Natl Anthem. then you watch your favorite team get massacred for the next 2-3 hours. thats what it was like. nobody cheers when your guy does something cool when they're down a million points. you just watch or go home.

They're doing this with another character.

And this is gonna be a PSA kind of but if you realize you're going to really start shitting up a thread, stop yourself like I'm going to now.

For what its worth I can totally believe this part. What I had a hard time with was the following.
