OK, I’m 51 years old. I still read comic books. And this is my happy space.

Thanos, mano-a-mano, with Captain America. What more can anyone ask?

We’re the same age, Jonathan! And I can’t wait for this damn movie. BTW, does anyone else think Cap has to have some sort of power-up going on in order to be able to stop Thanos’ hand from grabbing him? I’m thinking he’s packing an Infinity Stone of his own in that scene.

Elder brothers!

Yeah, Cap’s a more-than-maxed-out human but going strength to strength with Thanos should be out of his league.

On the other hand, I think that’s in Wakanda. Wouldn’t it be something if he got him some heart-shaped herb? That might give him the boost.

Except Killmonger burned it all. But maybe they saved some in the gorilla kingdom.

Yeah, but there’s no way they can let that stand. Either there’s a hidden supply or Shuri can synthesize it or whatever.

I didn’t think I could get any more pumped for this movie, but here I am.

“Oh, we’re using our made-up names? Then I am Spider-Man.”

I also liked the negotiations between the two biggest dicks in the MCU.

Tickets are on sale too. Just got center row Imax.

If they offer advance tickets, I’d recommend getting them soon anyway, based on how quickly so many were gone when I tried to get 'em.

I’m not sure I believe that anyone’s 100% a dick.

I can’t quite describe how geeked I am to see Tony Stark and Starlord in the same shot…

I thought **Peter Quill’s** name was coined by Steve Englehardt, his creator, because both were euphemisms for dick and that’s what the character was supposed to be. 😉

I like the continued problem with Doctor Strange’s name - like the bad guy in the DS movie who got Doctor and Master and such mixed up. Funny than Benedict Cumberbatch gets both Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Strange as characters 😉

“Mister…?”  
“Doctor.”  
“Mr. Doctor?”  
“It’s Strange.”  
“Maybe, who am I to say?”

I loved that exchange. It showed that Kaecilius wasn’t some overarching bad guy. He had bad goals, sure, but he was still able to relate to other people as people and acknowledge that he wasn’t superior in all ways.

The impression I’d had (which could be mistaken) was that the effects of the heart-shaped herb were similar to that of the Super Soldier serum. Now, I’m curious as to the relative levels between the MCU versions of T’Challa and Steve.

Ugh, I want to watch this but I also want to be a fresh as possible and avoid as much as I can about the movie. Decisions decisions.

Tickets are out. Bought mine this morning.
