Appreciate the effort, but suicides? Come on now. I think you’re just looking for faults tbh.

Gamora was already willing to be killed in order to prevent Thanos from reaching his goal; so, why not just have her kill herself before Thanos can capture her? Stupid writing.

Did the Gauntlet get destroyed at the end of the movie? Looked like it was melting or soemthing. I assume Dinklage will have to make a new one and the Avengers will have to steal them all back (or at least the Time stone) and undo everything.

Well he was captive for a good chunk of that. But yeah, Doctor Strange's stuff didn't make a lot of sense the more I think about it. Like, why did it take him so long to look ahead and figure out how to beat Thanos? And why couldn't he play with time more to give the heroes a competitive advantage against Thanos and his minions? Probably overthinking it.

People aren't gonna kill themselves unless/until they absolutely have to, which is what Gamora tried to do. Too bad the Reality Stone was messing with her.

Heck, Dr. Strange could have simply used his knowledge of the Mystic Arts to travel to another dimension as he did in his own movie and leave the Time Stone there. Problem solved. He could have done the same with Vision.

Because Thanos wouldn’t allow herself to be killed?

Mate, stop over analysing this.

Tom Holland's acting to fading away was fantastic, and Tony's reaction to having this all happen in front of him was powerful.

That CAPTAIN MARVEL distress call at the end had me really hyped and I can't wait for next year to see how this all wraps up!

But wasn’t the distress call to Captain Marvel a gamble anyways. I mean in all honesty there is a 50 percent chance she is dead because of the snap just saying.

Rodey signed the accords.....so unless Ross went poof as well....he's up for some serious Jail Time.

I don't think he will care friends matter more than the US Military and plus he still has a few injury from the last time we saw him in Civil War.

Strange saw all the possible future outcomes when they were on Titan.

Only scenario where they would win is if Thanos had the time stone, making Strange unable to turn back time to undo everything that happened.

Also explains why he gave up the stone to spare Tony's life even though he said he would choose saving the stone over Tony and Peter's lives on the ship.

That's just a contrived, in-narrative explanation. However, from an outside perspective, he should have definitely been able to use the Time Stone to scew Thanos. He didn't even consider doing so prior to that scene in which he looks at all potential future outcomes, so I call bollocks.

I just pre-ordered the 4K SteelBook. Here is the link.

Not from Fury's perspective, because he didn't know the nature of the phenomenon by which people were disintegrating. For all he knew, it was exclusive to Earth or even just the area he was in.

I think Thanos needed all the stones to wipe out half the universe because otherwise he just didn't have enough power to do so. Mind and soul to connect to every living thing and space to be able to reach them.

The talking twig can't catch a break. Poor thing.

An important question I would like an answer to (open for debate) :

Groot clearly turned to dust. So, doe this mean, that Stormbreaker now has no handle? Or does that part of Groot not turn to ash?

The handle is no longer a part of Groot, so it remains. Just as someone's clipped fingernails or toenails would remain after they have been turned to dust. Well, at least that's my own explanation.

Finding a resolution to a cliffhanger problem is not an issue at all.
Plus, if Marvel had made it look like no one had died in this, that would also be getting complained about. Probably even more so than this.

Really, they cant win tbh.

My complaint is that they "killed" characters that everyone knows will not remain dead. Spider-Man is far too popular and already has a sequel to Homecoming in the works. He'll be back. Black Panther just had his first standalone movie 2 1/2 months ago and it grossed over $1.3 billion. He'll be back. Guardians 3 is due out in 2 years. Now it is possible that Gamora remains dead(and she f'ing better or else it'll completely undermine the best moment in Infinity War!), but there's no way in hell only Nebula and Rocket will be the last surviving characters.

Certainly, some of these folks will be offed in Part 4. And once seen in its entire 5-hour context, the story will hopefully be far more effective and resonate more. But I just didn't get emotionally drawn into the finale of Infinity War the way others did because I knew a bunch of the characters who turned to dust will be resurrected a year from now.

The thing most underrated in this movie is the fact the production team finally stopped asking Liz Olsen to do a Sokovian accent.

Witch and Quicksilvers accents were so horrendous in Ultron it was almost comical. It was weird hearing Wanda speak normal English without an accent but I'm glad they went with that creative choice cause last time they made her do the accent her regular American accent would switch in every few lines.

It's just as bad as Daniel Kaluuya's Wakandan accent. He had arguably the worst one in Black Panther.

[imsounoriginal]

I didn't even notice her lack of accent until someone pointed it out.

It was weird. The first few lines she spoke I could see her almost trying to do it. But once she has more and more dialogue it was clear they just decided to get rid of if.

Wait, a villain who kills half of the mutants avengers, and then the remaining heroes have to time travel to undo the events and save their friends, resurrecting them creating an alternative future. Reminds me of another superheroe movie from 2014.

[imsounoriginal]

Yeah it's not a big deal, I guess the accent could erode over a period of time. Two years seems quick though, and she's hiding in Scotland with a dude who speaks with a British accent, so how she lapsed to American still wouldn't really make sense lol
