re: Infinity war reaction and SPOILERS thread

I don't think CM will have that big of an impact on the events of A4. She will have her solo movie come out right before A4, similar to Black Panther, so that movie will probably do most of the heavy lifting for her entry into the MCU. She will probably have about the same impact in A4 as Black Panther did in IW. I'm not saying she won't be crucial in one aspect, but the story is gonna be about the OG Avengers making sacrifices to ultimately right things.

I realized watching IW, more so after each rewatch, that the Russos really know how to work heart and emotion into a movie at this point. They realize the emotional investment the audience has put into this franchise, especially the original players, and they aren't gonna let up on that in A4. I think they have things set up well at this point, and if they finish A4 off with a happy, but emotional and bittersweet ending, it will resonate deeply with the audience for years to come.

EDIT: I don't really buy Loki somehow pretending to be Hulk. He was acting weird because the Hulk got his arse whooped for the first time, knocked out, and then transported back to Earth(and out of the violent situation before he had time to become more enraged). Of course it's gonna be a huge blow to his ego for a little while, and just as Stark kind-of joked when he asked if he was having performance anxiety. What purpose would it serve if Loki was pretending to be Bruce, and talking to himself/Hulk in private when he tries to convince the Hulk to come out?
