I love these threads.

Not to mention, Thanos gets defeated in very anti-climatic ways a lot of the time in the comics. I believe some people are only hyping up Thanos because they want to be part of the hype bandwagon, not because they actually know the character.

Also I have seen the trailer for The Avengers: Infinity War, and it seems like everyone is already getting their asses kicked by Thanos. So what the hell will The Avengers 4 be about then? Thanos kicking their asses some more? Kinda contradicts what Kevin Feige and the Russo brothers are saying about The Avengers 4 being a stylistic different movie.

He is so evil, that hell wants no part of him. Or maybe he is being granted the first power.

It's not like Hugh Jackman's Wolverine where he has been around for 17 years, so the level of impact is simply not there with those other characters. Hell, Black Panther just came out a few months ago. I'm not even trying to be critical or anything. But come on, guys. They are not exactly going for the Oscars here.
Why the hell do you even watch movies?

He keeps going on and on about nothing. From what I gather, most people were not anticipating what would happen at the end of this movie as far as who would live and die. Also, if your whole argument is a movie can’t be emotional if you know a character is not really dead, why would you even watch movies?

You have it completely backwards. By your logic... Making only one villain great > Making all villains great. Shame on me for wanting to see other villains get equal treatment. And people say I'm a Marvel hater. By the way, I think you are confused by my comments on Thanos' powers. I don't care if it's not like the comics. If anything, I've been saying for YEARS how concern I was about Thanos appearing in the MCU. Because his motives and story wouldn't translate well into film at all. That's why I have always been skeptical about Thanos. Oh look, and I was completely right. My concerns came true. Everything I worried about Thanos from the comics was changed for the MCU, and for the better. A comic book accurate Thanos wouldn't work in live-action, and even the writers. So all those times you guys gave me shit, I was right to be concerned all along.

Exactly! If everything has been done before, why are people acting so shocked at what happen in Infinity War?

Why do you watch movies? You know there’s no real danger. Everything you’re seeing is being done by paid actors who are perfectly fine on real life. Every movie you watch is pointless because it’s all fake and you know it.

Bullshit! The events in the Starwars movies actually happened.



Those events just happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

I was on the edge of my seat, I thought the Empire was going to win and destroy the universe. Battle of Yavin was still awesome.

Am I missing something here? Okay, so let be get this straight...it's wrong of me for not having any emotional response to the "fate" of these characters in the movie, yet you guys are not denying that pretty much most of it will be undone anyway. Why do you think I said Hugh Jackman's Wolverine should remain dead? Because it would actually mean something knowing that version of the character won't come back. So you can't compare this to other movies, because some things actually DO stay permanent.

I don't think anyone can say marvel villains are usually well done except maybe the winter soldier that did turn good. Thanos was, I feel, the best villian. Loki was as well but most everyone else was rather flat.
