What are people's feelings on the X-Men appearing in the MCU? Would we be looking at an entirely different cast? I kinda think it has to be.

Thry need to severly curtail the number of mutants. Any Xmen crossover always highlights how stupid things are, mutant registration but not for super powered individuals. Anti mutant sentiment but love Ironman, cap, spidey, FF.

Have it that the triggering of all the stones and gamma bursts has triggered mutation but only in limited number (even say that mind stone didn't change Wanda, just triggered latent mutation potential)

I'd honestly prefer if they didn't and FF would be a MUCH better fit for MCU.

Either way I'd say there will be consequences to the unsnap, starting with Dr Strange 2 and possibly beyond.

Yeah, the conversation between Tilda Swanson's character and Banner really pointed to a potential conflict for Strange - even though the events of Endgame ultimately prove him to be correct.

I get Cap was worthy to wield the hammer but how was he able to call on the lightning? Ragnarok made the point that that ability was always within This, and the hammer just a conduit to focus it.

haha, I feel you. My viewing had a drunk guy light up a cigarette and start puffing away.

Mine had just started and it was delayed by 15 minutes because of latecomers. All teenagers, arms full of junk food and the fact they were late didn't faze them, marched all the way up to the back looking for seats and then moaning on the way down that they'd have to sit at the front.

While inconsiderate and illegal........at least that's quiet. Like, I missed so much dialogue because of loud asshats. One example, Sam's "On your left" moment when he appeared beside Cap? Never heard it. Had to just read about it online.

I'm still a little annoyed, to be honest. I might go see it again in a couple of weeks when the f*cktards are all back in school.

Just back from it and I don't know was I expecting too much but the film was a massive disappointment and a bit of let down IMO.

Id have preferred if they had killed off another half a dozen characters or so in the process of retrieving the stones and fighting Thanos at the end, there was no real sense of danger for the characters.

Tony's scene was predictable and it didn't really connect emotionally as the film still had 10/15mins to play out.

The only one I feel sorry for was Thanos, the universe was at least balanced and better off the way it was when he was off farming. :pac:

For me, Infinity Wars was a better film, to paraphrase and steal Tony's words : part of the journey (infinity wars) is better than the end (endgame).

It wasn't all bad but I didn't get a sense of much devastation from the "vanished" there was a memorial park in San Francisco and a meeting group setup by Captain America and the odd scene where people mentioned dead loved ones.

The powers of the heroes vary wildly too, Thanos seemed as powerful in this with no stones as he was in the last film with a gauntlet full and Thor was nerfed massively, storm breaker cut through the full power of the gauntlet last time but was stopped by a blade this time around made zero sense.

I think the Russos done a decent job over the two films but this was not much more than a solid 7/10 effort.

I pretty much agree with all that, maybe on second viewing I'll warm to it more but half way through it I wasn't getting into it at all.
Some great moments but also more than usual that annoyed me and unfortunately they have stuck with me.

Prof Hulk was a let down, would have benefited from his creation rather than hearing it over a coffee, but there was enough time pressure on the story I guess.
They could have shown a few shots of the wider impact of the snap, wouldn't have taken much time for that.
Thor was turned into a joke, hard to take him seriously again. As above, Storm breaker was able to best Thanos twice but it and the hammer wasn't able to do much against his new blade, was it Valayrian steel?
I get Cap was worthy to wield the hammer but how was he able to call on the lightning? Ragnarok made the point that that ability was always within Thor, and the hammer just a conduit to focus it.
The 'girls night out' would only have been more cheesy if they suddenly pulled on Black Widow t-shirts.

The undo of the snap brought everyone back but as they were 5 years ago, food supply, difficulties with unsnapped having moved on from snapped partners, property inheritance etc. terrible idea, just to ensure Tony's daughter still existed and it was a fair chance she would have been conceived anyway.
The final battle was impressive if a little over whelming, spent more time focus on who all the characters were rather than the action. The Black Order we're seriously underpowered this time.

I did like the Hawkeye arc, esp as he was a character I wasn't bothered with in the past.
Sad seeing Black Widow and Ironman die, they did a top job on Tony's death scene, not over the top.

Overall, I enjoyed it but it didn't have an impact on me like IW did.
Overall I felt they tried to cram too much and too many characters into it, and the whole story was all down to a rat.

Oh, and spoiler tags are not necessary anymore folks.

Ya giggled it after great grand niece. I was reacting to some posts of Captain tapping her earlier as if she is his daughter

I think they did it well, she got some screen time but the movie focused on the originals. Again she appears at the end to to destroy the ship whichbwould have obliterated them by the looks of it

Dad Bod Thor, simply astounding.

Still haven't seen Black Panther and didn't see Captain Overkill neither can't wait for a southern Mutant to come along and kick her over brooding ass. Get it done Disney.

Rollercoaster of a movie cementing Barton's turn in the opening scene was so captivating Thor Hulk and Tony's character development was shocking I expected more deaths, the lift scene was an extremely satisfying Easter egg as was Thor's roommates. A lot of plot holes and too much tying up of loose ends for guardians related stuff but Star Lord getting his groove on my god that was epic. Good way to spend 3+ hours I'll wanna see it again but more likely with Infinity War first as trying to remember some of the scenes was hard.

Ya the time travel gubbins is going to get a lot of people worked up with alternative timelines.

2014 Gamora has no idea about Quill, hence why we see Quill at the end "searching" for her on the ship, at the moment, shes jumped 5 years into the future and has no attachment to the GoTG or Quill.

I think they'll handle it by having everything pre-2014 Thanos as not being aware of the future until hes dragged into 2019 by the 2nd Nebulas recording and then going to chase the stones.

Unless we assume that the Ancient One isnt talking out her arse and Cap has put the original stones back into play to balance the universe, everything is wrapped up nicely.

Teenagers are the worst. So little regard for anyone else around them. Wouldn't shut the f*ck up with the constant loud talking and I've never heard a cinema so loud when it comes to snacks. Like some of these gobsh*tes behind me HAD to have been doing it on purpose. Imagine a plastic bag being smashed and crinkled for three f*cking hours straight and you get the idea. Oh, and chew with your mouth closed ffs.

I've never been more annoyed and distracted in any screening before. This film's release coinciding with school holidays was a disaster. If I wasn't concerned with missing bits of the film, I'd have demanded that the staff kick them out. Proper f*cking scumbags. :mad:

Despite that, I still enjoyed the film.

Also what’s stopping 2013 Thanos stealing the stones again.

Seeing they dropped back all of the infinity stones. I get that 2014 Thanos is dead but what about pre-2014 Thanos?

2013 Thanos is 2014 Thanos though no? Like there is no Thanos from 2014 on because he jumped forward he was killed in 2019?

Also someone back there mentioned captain marvel. The guns turning and firing was a pretty cool scene in fairness but she wasn't remotely needed and my big fear going into this was that she was going to come in and save the day kinda taking from the decade long story. I knew it wouldn't happen but a part of me thought it would be a deadly plot point if he kicked her ass like the hulk in IW. Although getting the drop on her with the switching the stone between hands was pretty good too.

As I understand the logic, everything that happened in the previous movies, still happens. So, basically, there are two Thanoses. The one who travels to and dies in 2023, and the one who goes on to collect and use the stones as we saw in the previous films.

Doesn't make much sense to me either, and maybe I missed some key dialogue that further explains it, but I wouldn't overthink it. It's really just a way for Marvel to do a time travel story without ruining previous movies for audiences. I'm sure the next Avengers movie will be Kang (a time traveller from the comics) telling Banner he's a moron and he doesn't understand time travel at all

Baggly

The way I'm treating it is that if 2014 thanos isn't there to do infinity war, everything in this movie doesn't happen. But if this movie doesn't happen, 2014 thanos is there to make the events of infinity War happen, which makes the time travel of this movie happen. But that means 2014 thanos isn't there to make infinity war...... Etc etc etc

So the universe does itself a favour and says time is looped so all of this happened and we can all carry on going on.

This is why I promised myself I wouldn't get in time travel debates.

People are tying themselves up in knots over it elsewhere.

Haven't a clue, but I imagine it's because it's business as usual for 2012/3 Thanos who wouldn't be aware of any time shenanigans.

Yeah but eventually it would be sold/stripped.

Not that it matters ultimately. It was just a bit of a plot contrivance.

In the unit where the truck was stored, on the fence in front of the truck was a sign that said "Lang".

I think what it implies is that after the snap, people's belongings (in some cases even vehicles) that may have been left out in public were collected when it was assumed they were snapped because nobody knew what happened, or if/when people would come back. So these things were all put in storage to remove them. After that though, given how basic society collapsed (as we can see with how desolate everywhere had become), stuff was just left in storage for the most part. So Scott's truck just sat there,because there was no-one to organise selling or stripping it (plus given the state of the truck and the no doubt countless other cars/trucks that would also have been abandoned, it just would have been considered junk and not worth the effort to do anything with).

There were abandoned vehicles literally lying about the place the entire time in San Francisco that nobody had moved.

The question was how did it get into the warehouse it was in when the rat activated it, as at the end of Ant-man/Wasp they were on top of a multi storey parking lot.

Ant-man's daughter aged quicker than some soap opera characters in those 5 years.

About Gamora 2. Does she have to go back to 2014 as nothing can be taken from the past? I don't remember her being in the ship at the end but may have missed it

I disagree, at least with the FF. Just don't do Doctor Doom straight outta the box again, please. :pac:
