Only the best ones, a few of them have been good: GotG, Avengers 1, Thor: Ragnarok.
This movie has 86% on Rotten Tomatoes and I would have skipped it if not for the reviews in this thread.
You cunts robbed me of my time and my money.
Hey assholes, here's a spoiler for this piece of shit movie.
A guy wants to kill half of the people in the Galaxy. He does. Here's cameos from 40 different characters, five of whom you like.
The end.
Fuck all of you.

Interesting. You liked Thor: Ragnarok, but hated Infinity War. Was IW just too complex for you?

Because the idea was born of Thanos' original idea to save his world. Before he added the concept of the infinity stones.
When his world turned their back, it drove him mad, and he took his idea to the extreme.
It's why he's a villain. You can't look at it in a vacuum.
If it was Ironman or someone, your right, make unlimited resources or something.

everyone thinks so. i'm not so sure. all that talk in the beginning about getting married, and having a kid. Tony has something to live for now, not himself. thats the next stage in his character. Hes already stepped up and made the self sacrifice twice.
Also a major theme of the movie was "we don't trade lives". while Thanos literally did. No one stays dead. (gamora/vision both say, kill me to save the universe. Cap and then vision both say, we dont trade lives. Gamora gives up the soulstone to save nebula. Loki trys to play Thanos with letting thor die, then giving in.. Strange very loudly and clearly says he WILL trade lives to save the time stone. but, then ends up giving it up, to save Tony.. etc, etc. If IW2 comes down to a heroic sacrifice, that would break the theme of IW1.

Not sure why every movie needs to be Schindler's List or it's shit or something. Aside from the issues mentioned with fixing the problem in a better way, it's still a superhero movie so things are going to be contrived to make things work a certain way. Nature of the medium. Good entertaining movie is good entertaining movie and all that. It's one of the better Marvel movies, not sure I'd put it ahead of GotG or Winter Soldier, but it was pretty damn good.

yeah, more on this.
someone though Thanos waifuing Lady Death was a bad idea. perhaps the idea of Death showing up as a little girl, or maiden they thought would be silly. so, how do you do it? You have her show up, wearing the faces of the Dead. first, perhaps a powermad nazi, explaining what was required to get the soulstone, and hinting the path he is on.. Then, again as the loved sacrifice, asking, was it worth it?
also, why would you hide the soulstone behind a gate, only giant assholes can open? I feel like that purity test will never have the results you want it to.

The latest I have been reading is that Iron man will have the opportunity to die and will decide to save the universe thinking of Pepper and his child. However, Cap steps in and talks Tony in to him being the sacrifice. Tony decides to go through with Caps plan still causing Iron Man to offer a great sacrifice of his friend (which would be a resolve to Civil War and make more out of that movie) and allowing him to live to raise his family.
I think this also works for them contractually. RDJ wants to be a part of Marvel forever but in bits in pieces somewhat like Spiderman Homecoming but maybe even smaller roles. Chris Evans is close to being done and I think he's made that somewhat clear he's about to wrap his time with Marvel up and do other things (directing I believe). Bucky or Falcon will be the new Cap, Ironman will retire and Shuri will be the new IM. Spiderman will somewhat helm the franchise for a bit and the next "big" storyline will be another cosmic deal with Eternals, Adam Warlock, some stuff they get from Fox, and the Guardians. Those are my predictions.

Not bad as predictions go.
I still feel that whatever happens in Avengers 4 will result in the Xmen / Fantastic Four popping into existence. I know Kevin Feige has said that there were no plans to use the FOX properties in Phase 4, but the man is a consumate showman and so his word cannot be trusted when it comes to matters of spectacle.

Yeah, so, opinions are just that: opinions and not facts but there are some things in this world that are so steeped in clear, demonstrable and self-evident excellence that it comes off as either contrarianism, ignorance, or flat out retardation. What's your excuse?
That's not a blind bias btw... I like Final Fantasy Record Keeper a bunch but if someone said it sucked, I'd understand why... I'd get it, but still love it just the same. Same with, say, Katy Perry. Same with Twin Peaks. Same with old Tales From The Darkside episodes. Or Kiwis, Paqui Ghost Pepper chips, Starbursts, etc etc etc. But to say this movie is a piece of shit just reeks of shitposting. It's not "a" superhero epic, it is "the" superhero epic.
But, hey man... thanks for your opinion

They did also make it very clear Wanda x Vision. AND, "Wanda is the only one with power enough to destroy an infinity stone" and"wandas powers are similar to an infinity stone."
Xmen brought in.. only to immediately set up House of M.

I doubt it. First, the movies were written before the deal was announced, and mostly filmed too. Second the deal isn't done yet. There are serious concerns that Disney+Fox would give Disney too much power and be on a monopolistic position something like 40% of all film revenues.
They probably have a Plan A and B in case the deal succeeds or fails. I'm pretty sure we won't see that with Avengers 4 though, since even if the deals go through they don't expect it to happen before summer 2019 so well after Avengers 4.
