re: Has no one talked about how Infinity War is basically the Phantom Menace?

When they open the shield, they don't get overwhelmed, a few of the good guys get swarmed- but tank the damage. A few Wakandan extras might die, but basically they are just engaged in a heavy battle.

There is no analogue for any of the heroes- in IW, all of them except Banner/Hulk Buster are decimating large amounts of enemies. Scarlet Witch engages and destroys the big weapons.

Actually, although the battle is cool, I don't see any point for it- they didn't have to open the shieldwall.

It maybe wasn’t the most tactically sound battle from the wakandan point of view. Opening the one section was a good idea IF you’re going to go plug that hole aka Thermopylae. They didn’t quite do that. But whatever.
