Avengers: Infinity War (WARNING: SPOILERS)

I was spared

That awkward moment, when Samuel L. Jackson delivers his final line to a China audience, and I'm the only person in the room who laughs....

Finally saw it. An excellent movie.

You could hear the kids around the theater gasping as people started disappearing and they realized what was happening. This movie might be this generations Empire Strikes Back.

Just like the hero killing a hundred henchmen on the way to the big bad, then dragging them off to jail. But of course Batman doesn't kill people, he just hits them and just throws razor sharp batarangs at them until they stop moving.

Not stop moving.

He knocks them asleep.

Everyone in this thread has seen the movie. No more need for spoilers.......

I think that's why Thanos told Quill he likes him. Quill actually pulled the trigger on Gamora. It takes a lot of "backbone" to shoot someone you love in order to stop a madman. Thanos could respect that.

Mods need to change the title then.

First thing my older daughter said when the credits started rolling.

Really hope that they give some explanation for how Thanos thinks that would work.

And technically he killed more than 50% of the universe. Think of the immediate chaos such as we saw with the car crash and the helicopter and than multiply that by the chaos of half of everyone disappearing.

What would happen on our real Earth if 50% of the humans on it just disappeared? And with no one with no knowledge why? Just poof and gone. It would be the "Rapture" times. I could easily see mass riots, governments falling, wars starting, and mayhem all over the place.

Also my take on how Thanos will ultimately lose:

I haven't, but I read the spoilers, so no biggie.

Done.

This thread is now a SPOILER FREE-FIRE ZONE.

You joke, but if I were DC, I'd be talking to Disney about that idea.

Saw it again. Opinion didn't change: grandest Marvel film yet, but not the best one.

I'm convinced Vision's consciousness is present in the Mind Stone. And I bet Gamora's is in the Soul Stone.

The deaths of everyone who turned to dust will be undone, but Loki and Heimdal are truly dead.

I’m still holding out hope for Loki.

Flashpoint would take care of that.

Eh, no one's gonna perma-die, time stone shenanigans + reality stone shenanigans = multiverse bullshit.

I just hope they are smart enough to avoid the modern comic version of captain marvel like the plague.

Possible Avengers 4 spoilers.

All Asgardians who die rather than being snapped out of existence are just waiting in Hel, which is a real place in the Marvel Universe, or in one of the other totally three-dimensional and accessible afterlifes. Death is for mortals.

Infinity War has blown past Dark Knight, Avengers 1, and Black Panther to be the #1 grossing superhero movie of all time, and it's the 5th highest grossing movie period of all time.

Jurassic World is going to fall to Infinity War, but I think The Force Awakens will remain out of reach (in worldwide box office, that is).

Chris Pratt swimming in a pool of gold coins, like Scrooge McDuck

Not necessarily. Wiping out half the universe has consequences to the remaining population - reduced medical expertise, military capability, law enforcement capacity, fatalities associated with people turning into dust.

You would expect mortality rates to shoot up, and you'd get something of a Bell curve for that change depending upon technological ability (if you live in the jungle - same shit, different day, less people. You live in a world where mind controlled machines do your every whim, little difference. You live in a modern 21st century Earth city, transport, comms, healthcare has all gone to shit)

Also depends on species. I mean, you'd need to wipe out 95% of Motie type species to have an effect, whilst another with more awkward breeding patterns may need to retain 75% population level just to not go extinct, so you'd hope Thanos would have taken that into account.

But really, he's the Mad Titan, so the clue as to why he got so fixated on his solution is in that particular description...

I just liked the action bits and the jokes!
