Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

So any chance the IMAX ratio is included in the 2D UHD?

Might they break down and give us that ratio?

Raganrok is great and so is Korg. I love the 80's vibe, the cast, the humor, the Jack Kirby influence, and the use of Led Zeppelin.

AH, I didn't read the bottom. But Tessa Thomson, Paltrow, Favreau....we know they are all in the movie too, and they aren't credited on it right?

I think there's gonna be so many names and even some surprises in this film.


I still remember seeing the first AVENGERS opening week at our new state of the art theater. That scene of the team all working together to fight different aspects of Loki's goons....I just sat there with a huge smile on my face thinking, this is what I imagined it would be when I was playing with their toys as a kid...and now I'm actually seeing it come true.

I hope the awe is still there for this film.


EDIT: I just remembered that Cobie Smulders said she did some work in this film too. So there's another name from the franchise not seen in any footage...yet.

Okay, now he is dead.

The while film was about keeping it away from Malekith who had a connection to its capabilities.

The Cosmic Cube is the power source of the Hydra tech.
And is what Loki uses to open the portal for the Chitari to invade NYC.

GotG took a stone from Ronin. Its the plot of the film.

Dr. Strange is about the Time Stone.

Ok just rewatched

The Aether is never called an infinity stone at all.
It’s refferred to only as an ancheint and powerful relic that predates the dawn of known (asgardian)time, when The dark elves would reign terror with its power. Odin does say that whilst others are often stone, this one is liquid that change matter into dark matter.
Thor’s lightning temporarily solidifies is when attempts to destroy It, but then it takes liquid form from the many broken shards(they reform as one chunk of liquid)

SO clearly in hindsight we know that’s code for ‘Infinity Stone’ but no one calls it such, until the post credit scene. For all we know, it’s just an old relic, like many others in Odin she vault, and wasn’t no clearly or explicitaly a known stone at that point.

I’m pretty sure we will get it theatrically.

Which is why I chose to see this in IMAX.

3D copies usually keep their IMAX ratios so we should do.

I’d like to think both versions would never offered for 4K but who knew how’s

Korg was annoying and forced for me. Would agree, movie would be better with less or without

[Creed]

I like Korg. Didn't like the joke

[Show spoiler] before Asgard blew up.

Its doesn’t matter.

The Cosmic Cube was a cube just like the Aether was not a stone.

Loki put the cubes stone in his Staff.

Thanos will still harness whats been represented despite fans *****ing about minor bullshit.

Yah, I felt exactly the same way. I defended the humor in this movie. But that last bit even made me go, okay, that's enough.

I was worried that the Russo's would employ the de-saturated shaky cam bullshit they used in Winter Soldier and Civil War but it looks like they invested in a steady cam, a dolly, a tripod and boosted the colors.

I'm very happy with the cinematography.

[InuYashaCrusade]

The last 30 seconds or so of the new trailer before the Avengers logo appears is so damn awesome, I can't stop watching it. The Black Order, Thanos crushing the Tesseract, Doctor Strange getting tortured and the Hulkbuster getting attacked are my favorite pieces from today's trailer.

I liked all of the Korg humor except that last two bits were so out of place. The "Miek is dead"and "we can rebuild it" were awful.

I was just poking fun at the Snyder fanboys demanding DC gives them the Snyder cut for JL.

[kngtmat]

Will the Avengers ever find out that Colson is alive?

I really hope so because it would be a bit ridiculous if they killed any of the original Avengers without them finding out on screen about him being alive.

I'm definitely buying that Infinity War shirt that re-creates the Infinity Gauntlet comic cover. That looks so badass. I'm so wearing that to the premiere.

Disney don't do 3D releases in the States no more. I'd have to import if that is to happen.

Where can I find this greatness?

I doubt we will ever see Agents of SHIELD really acknowledged in the films.
