after that, i dont see any new booty ass characters coming along to take on thanos. it took 10 years to get him on screen; he sent loki, red skull an army of aliens to invade. so if they decided to bring in adam warlock in ONE movie to op him and take out thanos i would feel cheated

IW lived up to the hype boyos.
Wasn't perfect like someone mentioned, but the sheer amount it had going for it, credit goes to the writers and the Russo's to be able to pull it off. My problem is there was too many plot lines going on that you'd go like 30+ minutes without visiting one character, I mean with 4 or 5 big plot lines happening I understand, but I can see it being a problem for people. A movie like Black Panther with only the 2-3 plot lines going on is going to be more user friendly.

In response to one of the spoiler comments [no spoilers in this response]:
I felt the same way about Chris Evans. I only really knew him from his Fantastic Four and Scott Pilgrim roles, and wouldn't have imagined him as a good Captain America based on his roles there. But by the time Civil War hit, my freedom boner was full tilt and felt like he was nailing it.Misc Firearms Crew

lol, was just re-reading parts of Infinity Gauntlet to remember how it ended (holy fuk is it complicated) and I spoiled myself on something that happened in IW which I forgot, though the movie sort of alludes to.
Spoiler!
Also, how the fuk they going to get the Gauntlet off Thanos, like bruh. In the comics it took the cosmic entities to get him pissed off enough that eventually Eternity showed up and Thanos went cosmic himself leaving his body a shell. This all taking place of course in space on a floating rock with a charred corpse of Nebula, Death watching and not giving a fuk. lolNot part of any crews crew

Reading the easter egg thread on reddit and damn son. Just 10/10 movie.
Only reference I was pissed I missed was an Arrested Development cameo, I only noticed it in the credits. Apparently Tobias is in one of the Pods at the Collector's. Re-watching the movie just to find it, srs.Not part of any crews crew

After my second viewing, I'm downgrading it from an A+ to an A-.
Still an awesome movie, no question, but I'm not quite sure I like it more than my previous favorite, Winter Solider, which has been a movie I can re-watch almost as much as Rocky or other movies I can watch 100+ times. With the second viewing, I felt the 2-2/3 hours a lot more (first viewing it didn't feel it at all). I was a little tired towards the third act, kind of waiting for the bigger moments.

Thanos held up to all viewings, though. What a great character.All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Anyone watch Krypton?
Watched the first 4 episodes and I just can't get into it. I want to watch cause they got Brainiac and they just showed Doomsday in the latest episode, but it's fairly boring and the editing is beyond horrible. In 4 episodes I don't think 1 scene has had a good edit to end the scene, chit just cuts off randomly every time.
CGI is pretty decent though and it's not terrible for a SYFY show, but it's sort of corny.
I gave up on Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (even though I'd like to go back and catch up on it) and wanted another superhero show to fill the void.Not part of any crews crew

Spoiler tags brah, my spoiler thoughts here:
Spoiler!
Non-spoiler thoughts:
This movie was insanely hilarious. My eyes teared up at one point because I was laughing so hard.
Also lots of references and Easter eggs but they were all funny.
No lie, there are five mid-credit scenes. All in a row. So make sure you stay! Some are funny, some are important to the plot.

this. in the comic 'x force' deadpool was sympathetic to the kid they were hunting which was kid apocalypse- thats not who the kid is in the movie, just the story they lightly borrowed from. so to see a side of DP that cares about family, kids etc, while still being over the top was cool. the jokes were so sarcastic that alot of them went over the audience head or they just didnt care ; like i felt that DP was sending up logan and black panther in a few moments that went unnoticed by folks, until after and I pointed it out.
Ryan Renolds and the other director TK or what ever actually had a disagreement about the sequel being big budget. Ryan wanted to have it much more polished which is the way it ended up. i appreciated the other films low budget feel which made it funnier to me for some reason. this was good, but felt it had much more 'video game ' feel to some scenes.
great movie non the less, but some points it dragged..but others were really really good

So I know we're all on that marvel movie hype but off that note for a second...
I just finished reading infamous iron man, where Dr doom takes the mantle of iron man after secret wars... Pretty good imo. I love anything with Dr doom and to see him try to be a hero simply because he is kind of bored and has tried everything else was pretty good.Sometimes I park in handicap spaces, while handicap people make handicap faces

I loved Deadpool 2. I think anyone who says it’s inferior to the first, is only saying that because there was nothing like the first. It was truly the first of its kind and approach. So of course it’s goimg to make a huge impact, where as now we know what to expect, kind of. The movie had great jokes, killer action, and the cameos were awesome.
