I've had some time to think about it. I do really like this movie for what it was. A big fucking spectacle where the good guys get beaten down. Thus setting the stage for the mcu moving forward. It wasn't perfect by any stretch, but it hit the mark for me. There was no hero character development, but there didn't need to be. We've seen the movies leading up to this, we know who they are. I wish there could have been more time to find out who the black order members were. The GotG are perfect, and now they're dead. |

I ended up seeing it again last weekend and have come to the conclusion that the only good parts of the movie were when the GOTG were on screen. Just makes me want GOTG Vol 3 even more | |

OKAY JUST SAW IT!
|
Even with the spoilers, I think I enjoyed it. I knew who was going to die and the major plot points but not how all of them connected and I think that made me enjoy it more? Cause the whole time I was focused more on watching the filler moments and enjoying them than wondering what was going to happen next. BUT. I dunno. Maybe that's just me.
I will say that I don't think a lot of the battle scenes or character moments are going to stick with me much. I think the best parts were with GoTG and Spiderman because they're honestly my favorite.
I like how they touched on the romance of Scarlet Witch & Vision but it just kind of made his eventual death that much more predictable. I think they could have benefitted from adding more during Civil War. Which is even weirded because.. weren't they on different sides? (:
I also feel like the events of Civil War were kinda brushed over a little bit, but maybe that's just me? And I guess Cap & Tony were never in the same place anyways.
UM BUT YEAH. Really the only thing that is going to stick with me is fucking SPIDERMAN. I know those deaths are probably temporary but that dramatic death was enough to make me cry a little. Also because it brought me back to Quicksilver and I'm tired of seeing my favorites die at the end of their first Avengers movie.
NIX IT MARVEL!!!!
Intrigued to see who they bring in for Part II because not a bash on any of the remaining characters but none of them are all that entertaining for me. They kept a lot of the predictable, straight-edge characters that don't bring a lot of humor. Thor might after his Ragnarok revamp and MAAAAAYBE Bruce but I think his humor is always much more subtle and won't be able to carry the entertainment factor.
But maybe they're going to go back to their old ways of taking themselves too seriously and making a purely dramatic movie (I HOPE NOT!). If they know what's good for them, they'll bring back the GoTG in a movie between the Avengers and now. (Captain Marvel, maybe?)
That's all I got. Not my favorite but it was an experience and that's kind of what I expected. |

I just came back from seeing it.

I don't know how I feel yet. While I was watching it, I was loving it, all the interactions between the various characters in their team-ups, etc. Thor and the Guardians especially. And it was definitely not short of action. A few times during the movie, I kept thinking about how it compared to The Lord of The Rings in its epicness. :P
I knew it was a two part story, but I wasn't sure how they'd end the first part. I kept hoping they'd defeat Thanos and then something else would happen to set up the second part. I was expecting some deaths, but there's no way all those characters stay dead. Loki, Gamora, Vision are probably done for good. All the others who faded away can't be gone for good. But I might have teared up a little when Spider started to go...
It's a comic book movie so it's doesn't always have to make sense logically. Like, why didn't Doctor Strange ever use the Time Stone to turn back the clock or go back in time and stop Thanos? He saw all the possible alternate future timelines so he knows more than anyone else and maybe giving Thanos that stone had to happen.
Kind of a depressing ending, but we've never seen our heroes be defeated like that, so it was interesting in that way.
I'm glad the wait until the next one isn't that long. |
