Went back and watched it a second time tonight, watching for details instead of pure unadulterated joy (the best way to watch an MCU movie), and find some answers to things I thought of reading this discussion. > [@Poysyn](#): > > Thanos is a very scary villain because he doesn’t see himself as evil - he absolutely believes he is doing what is best (and so do his followers). The “best” villains always are. They offer some measure of profit/pleasure/eternal happiness, if one can only ignore that missing thing - like empathy or genocidal tendencies. > [@muldoonthief](#): > > Jesus Christ yes. That’s the scene that I can’t kick out of my brain. I think I’ll be skipping that scene in any future watching of Infinity War, or I’ll have to immediately watch the scene in Avengers 4 where he’s resurrected and immediately kicks Thanos’ wrinkled mauve ass (I presume). The ending “deaths” didn’t bother me much the first time, but they clobbered me this time around, especially Scarlet Witch, Peter Parker, and Groot. Peter’s and Groot’s deaths were hard both for the aforementioned “scared kid” voice and their innocence. Remember in GotG2, Groot spent the entire movie playing and dancing (except for the whole big button deal). Stark has obviously taken on a father role for Parker, even if he refuses to admit it, and to have him wisp in Tony’s arms has to have a profound emotional impact going forward. > [@Omniscient](#): > > One last thing. Probably the most eyerolley part for me is when they have these human or mostly human characters going toe to toe with Gods or bring basically indestructible. > > As far as I know Scarlett Witch is just a human with magic powers. How can she fall 20 stories though a glass roof and be unscathed? At least show her creating a force field or something. > > Black Widow is a good character, but she’s a human spy. She can fight Cap or Bucky and survive but not a being like Proxima. For that matter Cap is a roided up dude. He can’t stand up to Thanos who made light work of Hulk. Did they even give Cap some sweet Wakanda nano armor or is he just wearing black leather? If not that last fight scene is even sillier. > > And Starlord’s silly little blasters against Thanos? Come on. At least the way he fought against Iron Man made some sense. > > I know this is not a new problem, but you’d think they’d be able to match up their opponents by weight class a bit better. It’s been consistently outrageous for awhile now. Steve Rogers pulled a freaking helicopter out of the sky in Civil War. I just go into every scene assuming every character is as powerful as the others, unless the other is a Bad Guy. They’re invincible without the combined strength of several Supers. Also, it’s pretty strongly implied that Rogers got some vibranium tech before the big battle, as T’Challa tells someone off-screen to “get this man a shield”. > [@Jophiel](#): > > While Thanos seems like the sort of guy who enjoys a good game of “Do what I want or I’ll pop this guy’s head”, is there any reason to believe that he couldn’t have just beat the shit out of Loki and taken the stone anyway? Loki had it hidden but Thanos knew that he had it. But Thanos isn’t omniscient, and wasn’t omnipotent until acquiring all the stones. It seemed like the Tesseract and the Time Stone were both located on alternate dimensions until recalled by Loki and Strange, respectively. The Supers greatest strengths (loyalty and love) are also their biggest DUUUUURP weaknesses. > [@Hypno-Toad](#): > > This movie makes me wish I had seen Civil War, Ragnarok, and Black Panther. That’s simultaneously annoying and very cool. I had the same conversation with a few other people - there’s something like 14 movies just to INTRODUCE the characters in Infinity War, even more for backstory (I think the only one you don’t need is Ant-Man, if you just accept him as a character in Civil War and promptly shunt him aside, as he doesn’t reappear). > [@Omniscient](#): > > When Maw and then Stark/Strange/Peter were flying back to Titan, they clearly were at it for quite a while. Ships I’m sure are fast, but not Bifrost fast, which is pretty much what that scene implied. The Bifrost sent Hulk back. Then there’s obviously the explanation of Thanos returning - neither Banner nor Strange actually know WHO Thanos is, so I’d wager there is some time passing there, and then the search for Stark. It might not be days, but several hours could have easily passed. If Asgard is close to Earth and the refugees are already halfway there, it’s not so far (on a galactic scale) as it might be. > [@simster](#): > > By the time we get to that ship - the fight is largely over and Thor is unconscious on the floor - we have no idea what he did (or didn’t do) when Thanos first arrived. Thor got his ass kicked the first time around - Rocket touches on this during their conversation. T - “No one has ever defeated me.” R - “Thanos did.” T - “No one has ever defeated me twice.” > [@The\_Other\_Waldo\_Pepper](#): > > Thanos is sitting on his porch, looking content. > > CUT TO: Scarlet Witch, weaving one of those illusions she makes people live through. Thanos is still sitting in that same pose, and he’s got that same look on his face; but there’s no porch, and it eventually becomes clear that the last couple of hours of the movie we watched were just, like, the movie _he’s_ been slackjawedly watching. > > (“How long until Thor gets here? I have a specific idea about where to hit this guy.”) Oh, there’s so many interesting ways they could have ended the movie if they wanted a “WTF” audience. The Captain Marvel one was pretty great too, if IW2 wasn’t already filmed. My thoughts: Tony Stark is alone on Titan with Nebula, and she’s not exactly the comforting type. He’s spent his entire time knowing Peter Parker keeping him as far from true danger as he could, and had to watch the kid wisp in front of him anyway. That’s gonna mess him up, especially after his whole conversation about kids with Pepper at the start of the movie. Elizabeth Olsen and Josh Brolin need some awards. They’ll never get them because superhero movie, but they were masterful. Olsen’s lip quiver when Vision finally says “It’s time” is like a gut punch from Thanos. Even with the CGI, Brolin’s portrayal of loss was fantastic. Remember, he lost all of his children in a very short period. Even as a genocidal maniac willing to murder one child and torture another in order to continue his murder spree, you got the feeling he felt grief over them. A point of weakness even for Super Saiyan Thanos - he’s not omniscient and his power is generally localized. Throughout the movie, the things he’s done wear off after he leaves - Drax and Mantis regain their forms on Knowhere, Banner pulls the Hulkbuster out of the cliff. Also, the Dark Order was never defeated in a straight up fight - every single death was the result of being surprised. Nothing more to it, just something I noticed - sucked out into space, rocketed into the force field, tossed into a wrecking ball by someone believed out of the fight, and stabbed in the back. Their weapons all had some pretty impressive abilities - Cull Obsidian’s transforming hammer, Proxima Midnight’s staff returning to her a la Mjollnir, and Corvus Glaive’s well…glaive, going through vibranium like butter and redirect Mind Stone blasts. I’ll say the humor in this one was MUCH better than Ragnarok or even GotG2. Banner’s issues with Hulking out added to the tension while still raising a smirk, and the interplay between the various groups (Quill and Thor, Stark and Strange, Rocket and Bucky) really added to the movie. None of it felt forced. Drax’s “I’ve mastered the ability to stand so still as to be invisible to the eye” bit was fantastic, as well as Stark’s “Did you really just say hitherto undreamt of?” Last point: let’s take as accepted that Stark and Banner are quite possibly THE eminent geniuses in the world. It took Shuri about 5 seconds to obliterate their approach on Vision. It was definitely a “DAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYUUUUUM!” moment. ---

Loved it, best MCU since A1, imho. My theory is that Heindall saw a path to victory involving the Hulk and that’s why he beamed him off the ship instead of Thor or himself (not that he’s a coward, but that battle was clearly lost), Hulk knows this and that’s why he refused to come out, he’s waiting for the opportune moment. We never see the Hulk and Strange on the same battlefield, do we? I think these two paths will converge. ---

I got the feeling he was pulling his punches at a few points - like at the end, when he used his power to just knock the Avengers aside instead of atomizing them. With Drax and Mantis, I think he was purposely avoiding killing his daughter’s friends. ---

I love/hate this movie like none I can think of before. The notes I jotted while my reactions were fresh: Incredibly thrilling, with the flat-out best action I’ve seen in any superhero movie ever. I have increasingly gotten fatigued with the big fights in these movies, but here I found that to be the best part. Amazing. As long as I turned off my brain so as not to nitpick. SO many logic holes. So they already had to evacuate a reduced Asgardian population, and then now they are all dead? Harsh. Reminds me of “Last Jedi”. Seriously, Cap almost overpowers Thanos? Pfffft. Why didn’t Strange just use the same tactic as in the end of his own movie? And how does Thanos get to rewind time but then his actions in time are not rewound? Hate when people give up stuff that will kill trillions to save one person. That’s how Thanos got the Time Stone, and the location of the Soul Stone. (Strange better have sabotaged his somehow.) Bucky: I have the same issue with him as I always did with the Six Million Dollar Man. A super-powered arm attached to a normal-strength body is just begging for massive, bloody tissue damage right at the attachment point (the shoulder or wherever). The Guardians almost checkmated Thanos (that might have been the best action sequence in the movie), but then Starlord fucked it up. Oh well, at least he was one of only two good guys (along with Scarlet Witch) willing to sacrifice a loved one (before his gun ended up shooting bubbles). Speaking of SW, critics have noted in previous movies that her powers are ill-defined. Now she’s just way overpowered. Why on earth did Thanos keep punching when he could just bend reality and end people? And he’s willing to kill half the universe, but as he’s on his quest, he doesn’t bother to kill heroes who oppose him? Even heroes he turned into weird Cubist pieces reassemble after he leaves–huh? His reality-bending powers were cool to see on the screen, but they blow a massive hole in the plot. It’s exhausting to have all these “entire universe” stakes all the time, and it gives you nowhere to go from there. I suppose that’s why two of my favorite superhero movies in recent years have been Spidey flicks. What percentage of the audience makes the connection between the ending and “The Leftovers”? .001%? ---

> [@RikWriter](#): > > I think it’s more likely that Strange knew that the only way to win, the one out of the 14 million scenarios he saw, had to involve Thanos getting all the stones and snapping his fingers. And we’re back to the “Strange knows stuff so we can’t argue with it.” argument. I mean, it’s true, but it’s kind of a cop out. And I think they wrote the movie to lead us to that cop out. It’s not necessarily a fault of the fans to say this; I think it’s a fault of the movie. ---

> [@SlackerInc](#): > > Seriously, Cap almost overpowers Thanos? Pfffft. I think that was almost just humoring him. Maybe he was a bit stronger than Thanos expected. He tried to slap him away like he was a normal person, and had to exert just a bit more strength.

That’s how Thanos got the Time Stone, and the location of the Soul Stone. (Strange better have sabotaged his somehow.) That’s one theory, that since Strange had possession of the time stone, that he may have done something to it.

His reality-bending powers were cool to see on the screen, but they blow a massive hole in the plot. The important thing is to remember that this was Thano’s story. He was the protagonist on a quest to save the universe. He was doing this out of the goodness of his heart. As the good guy of the story, he wanted to avoid too much collateral damage. Note that his henchmen didn’t have the same philosophy. They seemed to get a great deal of enjoyment out of death and destruction. > [@](#): > > It’s exhausting to have all these “entire universe” stakes all the time, and it gives you nowhere to go from there. I suppose that’s why two of my favorite superhero movies in recent years have been Spidey flicks. Well, not “entire universe”, more like half. 🙂 Though I agree, the cataclysmic events always happening tend to dull the suspense. We know that the REALLY BAD thing isn’t actually going to happen. One of the reasons I liked Firefly and Serenity. That was really high stakes for the characters, but not really that high a stake for the rest of the 'verse. ---

Well, it’s not just Strange. Loki hands over the stone to save Thor and then expects to be able to stab Thanos in the throat. Gamora gives the location of the Soul stone to save her sister but she also knows that others are working to stop Thanos. Point being, none of them really approached it from “Well, they’re all going to die but I saved you” and more like “Unfortunate, but it saved you and bought us some time for Plan B” ---
