You see, the fact I forgot this is how good Thanos mind fricked me man.

What if Doctor Strange knew what victorious way the avengers would win and didn't tell Stark before he disintegrated?

Yep. Strange faded away. I think it's clear that he saw the only way to victory was for him to give up the stone willingly, because after he did so Thanos said he would spare half of his planet.

Are you just stupid?

You’re living in this fantasy world where no one has any faith in Marvel studios. They made their bones with Iron Man and Avengers. The Russo brothers are the kings of superhero films.

And you can drop the internet tough guy routine.

Dr. Strange can also open up a portal to anywhere but I'm not sure if he's capable of doing that across space?

Or after disintegration.

I definitely think The Mad Titan regrets alot of his actions. I think his perfect sunsets fell short of how he really wanted to feel.

I love how Thanos isnt one dimensional. That motherfricker is a bad bad man.

I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Strange in this. Spidey's death was gut wrenching man

That would be Spider-Man bro.

Nope.

Superman is a literal god with so much incredible power living in a world made of cardboard that could fold around him if he's not careful and he never complains about it. If he was so much as anything closely resembling an anti-hero, the world would a be a lot more dangerous and he would be hunted daily by the law and the military.

Btw, speaking of Superman, just by power and strength feats alone, Henry Cavill's Superman would definitely handled Thanos easily without all the stones, and a close win with like 1-3 of the stones in the glove.

OML is talking about the Vision of this from 10+ years ago. That long ago, before you saw Guardians, would you have believed you would watch a super hero with a tree that says 1 line, and a raccoon? AND LOVE IT?

The MCU movies have consistently been singles, doubles and the occasional home run with (so far) few, if any strikeouts or double plays. By doing so, they have built up a cinematic universe where they can really do anything -- and people will still like it.

Marvel has changed the game.

It will be interesting to see if/how other studios try to duplicate this. While it may not always work, I think it's still a net benefit for long-term viewers.

It's amazing to me how much they have clobbered DC intellectual property as well. That normal movie viewers may equate the popularity/interest in things like Groot and Iron Man to Superman and Flash is crazy to me.

Loved Thor, Rocket, and Groot in this movie. When they came back to Earth, everyone went fricking nuts

Would've LOVED to see the immigration song playing during that scene

Black Panther isn't even in the ballpark as good of a film as this is

Naw cause this movie had more than two white people in it. Give it a rest. It's one thing to be racist. It's another to be stupid about it.

quote:

---

You really don’t know Superman.

Uh yes I do.

I'm speaking in a way that would make sense for casual observers and readers of comic books to understand.

Of course I know Superman is an alien, but he's an alien with god like power and that keeps the fact that a lot of people see him kind of like a god himself.
