Infinity War 2 Theories (Obviously spoilers for those who have not seen Infinity War)

Figured we could give this it's own thread:
I heard an interesting theory. Here it is, interspersed with my own ideas:
Annihilus comes on the scene to get the IG, but this a-hole wants to ice everything. Just all of it.
He gets the gauntlet, but is unable to use it for some reason.
Thanos has to help the Avengers defeat Annihilus. In doing so, he realizes the value of life or some shite.
Thanos restores the lives he took.
At the end of the film, he decides to restore Gammora using the Soul Stone, and has to sacrifice his own life to do so.
ETAOh, and somehow the Hulk stops being a infuriating pussy arse bitch.
I seriously don't give a shite about the MCU's Hulk now, and he was in my top 3 beforehand.

I think the heroes try, but don't have the power to defeat Thanos.
But I think Little Gamora (not sure if that's her from within the Soul Stone, or just his grieving conscience given form by the Stone) breaks him down. His regrets haunt him and feed his doubts, and he uses the Gauntlet one last time to restore things to close to what it was.
But it's damaged, and he can't completely do it; sacrifices have to be made. Cap, Stark and some others join him in giving their lives for the rest.
Gamora stays dead.

I think in order to restore those who were lost, each stone requires a sacrifice.
Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, M'Baku, Nebula and Wong each agree to give their lives for a stone.
When Thor offers to sacrifice himself for the last stone, Thanos stops him...and takes his place.
Also in a nice bit of fan service, you see a "30 years later" tag with the newest Avengers team being tabbed by Director Daisy Johnson:
Iron Man (Morgan Stark)
Captain America (Danielle Cage)
Hawkeye (Nathaniel Barton)
Black Panther (Azari)
Spider-Girl (May Parker)
Wasp (Cassie Lang)

It probably takes the combined might of her, Thor, and Worldbreaker Hulk to defeat Thanos.

reading this shite having never seen a single super hero movie, confirms my belief that super hero movies are dumb as shite.

Time Stone is key to any "fix"
Unless you go WAY back, anyone who died by physical means (was killed by weapon or hand and not by the power of the stones) is dead permanently. I don't see that happening.
Loki
Heimdall
Gamora
Xandar
1/2 of the Asgardians
All permanent casualties.
I think to be able to just turn back time is too much of a "cheat" - and too simple.
I like the idea of sacrifices to the Soul Stone, but there's a problem in that if it is still "soul for a soul" the living half of the universe would have to give themselves up.
I think it's a soul for the Soul Stone and it has to be Cap that's the sacrifice. He did it before and there's a ready replacement (Bucky), plus he can chill in the Soul World with Peggy.

Theories that don't include Adam Warlock and Captain Marvel are just wrong.
Both have been teased, they have an Academy Award winner playing Marvel in her own film, and Warlock played a big part in the comics arc (or so I am told).

I just saw Infinity War last night. I was talking with a friend and had two theories. Obviously CM and AW will play a roll but my two best guesses as to how they "undo" the important death are:
1) Thanos gets bored watching the sunrise over and over alone. Winning means nothing when the one you wanted to win with is gone (to Gamora "I always wanted you to sit there (talking about his throne)" this drives him mad and he accidently in an attempt to rescue Gamora resets time, causing his undoing.
2) the heroes get the stones and (like said before) each stone is used to being back a particular hero that it has a history with. Ex. Time stone -> Dr. Strange, powers stone -> Starlord, Soul stone -> Gamora,...
Obviously there is some good in #2 because of Spiderman but those are my 12% of a theory for the next avengers. I feel like using the time stone to reset all the events by the heroes would just be too much of a cheap trip and not Marvel's MO
I loved the movie. The only subpar pay for me was the killing of certain characters. Like obviously they aren't killing all the GotG, Spiderman, and Black Panther. Therefore you know it can be at least somewhat undone and takes away the threat of death. I know some will still be dead but why even kill the ones that will no doubt be back.

Warlok has not been cast yet, or Marvel have been playing a HUGE secret. IMO, that means he's not playing a part and his plot relevance will be put on to some like a completely reformed Thanos, Thor, CM, or even Steve.
Plus, I think the weight of the Thanos story means he is the central focus for A4. They can't bring in another major character with another major story.

One things for sure, we better be done with the "baddie of the week" as far as villains go. You cant kill Thanos and go back to Ronin level bad guy. He set the bar, they better keep the arc going.

I had a theory after seeing it originally. It doesnt involve Captain Marvel so it probably isn’t right. Maybe someone here can tell me why it doesn’t make sense.
Tony actually dies and Strange never gives Thanos the stone. Everything we see from Strange giving him the stone until the end is Strange showing Tony the future that occurs if he saves his life (not sure if Strange can do this, but it didn’t sit right to me that Strange would save Tony).

The riots would be amazing

Let's see, you have Annihilus, Galactus, COSMIC-POWERED DR. DOOM, Onslaught if they decide to go that route, Sentry, the REAL Ultron (not the emasculated Joss Whedon version) etc.

Yes, Ultron was a huge letdown

I know you are trolling, but comic books are just the source material for the movies. It is no different that bring something like LOTR or GOT to film. There is just more material to pull from so the continuity of the stories can vary.

Different villains doesn’t mean they are effective villains. When you raise the stakes as high as possible and make it out the other side, it’s hard to make the plot feel meaningful.
The movies willl still make a kagillion dollars and it won’t reallt matter, but it will be hard to take a big bad seriously after the biggest bad has already been handled (especially if the reverse the majority of his damage)

Well you make it meaningful with having core members die and stay dead, others incapacitated and have a new team not working well with each other. A good villain will take advantage of such circumstances
