2.5 years later and the Thanos vs Iron Man, Thor, and Cap fight still pisses me off

I know they wanted to show the heroes at their very end, or else it wouldn’t have lead to the iconic portals scene.
I know they wanted to show Thanos as being supremely powerful.
But here’s a few things.
Thor, regardless of being fat, is the most inspired he’s ever been. Fatness doesn’t reduce the God of Thunders power.
Tony, already went 3-4 rounds solo against Thanos WITH 4 out of 6 stones.
Cap, like Thor, is the most inspired he’s ever been.
The 3 of them together vs stoneless Thanos would’ve put up more of a fight than they did. Thor beat all-stone Thanos, idc if he was caught by surprise, single-handedly in Wakanda. As mentioned, Tony hung in there for awhile 1 on 1 against 4 out of 6 stoned Thanos.
But instead they got their fricking asses whipped for narrative purposes.
You cannot tell me, that at their most motivated they can’t do more damage than they did. Thanos without the stones is a more powerful Hulk, 3 on 1 they could take a more powerful Hulk.
At least have the Black Order join in the fight to make it more believable.
Actually pisses me off how much they downgraded Thor, Cap, and Iron Man and upgraded stone-less Thanos for this brawl.
And why couldn’t they just drop Mjolnir on Thanos’ chest to pin him to the ground, then cut off his head?
And how is Cap’s earpiece on the same frequency as Valkyrie’s?

They have down played Thor's powers the entire MCU...
Wouldnt make a good set of movies if Thor just shows up and kills all the bad guys though..

Frac,
Those aren’t valid potholes. Those are reasonable things that have to happen SO THE MOVIE CAN HAPPEN.

They didn't
They implausibly upgraded their powers in the prior conflict because Thanos just obliterating them would have meant no story.
Thanos is more than a guy with Hulk strength and combat skills

You're not wrong. Thor threw Stormbreaker through the power of the Infinity Gaunlet but gets wrecked by regular Thanos. He was fat but his will was no weaker and he was just as worthy.

which is why superhero movies are fricking dumb. It’s like when you’re playing with your little niece or nephew and they’re like “nuh uh, when I have this rock I’m faster than you so walk slower and then also you have to do what I say and then I automatically win”.
But adult men are entertained by it.

Wut lol. Fat guys with neck beards are like the central demo of the movies.
Sorry I think they make for bad story telling devices as the stakes are non existent or artificially created on the fly.

With Star Wars and the Matrix and GOT and Wheel of time and anything DC that’s not Batman all out there…
You picked Marvel’s hill to die on? Really?

Maybe they were just time lagged.

There's also a legit theory out there that holding the stones weakened Thanos in Infinity War. He had to use their power to defeat the trio. ENDGAME Thanos that you are referring to is not weakened by holding the stones and thus more naturally powerful.

Thanos was playing with Ironman in infinity war. And all three were out of their prime by endgame and had just gotten smoked by the explosions. Still they had a good shot to beat him if iron man doesn’t get knocked out by Thor’s hammer.

This actually was my biggest gripe. I was disappointed that Ironman was so ineffective. I drew a drop of blood, but at no point proved any real threat to Thanos. I really wanted to see "Earth's greatest defender" be more impact full in the moment. I get that he had his scene in Endgame, but I always thought he deserved more.

I've posted on here before, but the thing that I was most disappointed in was what they did with hulk. I can't believe they put banner in the hulk buster iron man suit. I don't like it, but I somewhat get it why he didn't fight in infinity war, but there's no reason he for him not fighting in endgame. I wanted the old hulk to show up. The one that only would get more pissed and stronger and continue to fight until everything is leveled. Instead we got smart hulk, a huge green pussy.

I am inclined to agree. still enjoyed it though.

I think they just wrote that based off Ruffalo in real life!

The biggest thing that pissed me off was the build up of Cap being able to pick up Moljnir over a few movies since Ultron, finally having it happen plus Thor having Stormbreaker and that not being the pivotal moment in the fight for them to win. He gets Moljnir, they get the upperhand briefly, then Thanos handles them after essentially wasting Cap picking up Moljnir

This still pisses me off the most out of everything. Hulk got made a bitch and stayed one
