Darth Binks dies in Infinity War.

I just got back from watching it. I went in knowing that Thanos wins and that his plan was to wipe out half of earth.

1. 2/3rds of the movie is comedy which is very weird for the ending.

2. I didn't like the comedy all that much but I liked the ending.

3. The reason I think this movie was so successful is because the normies don't understand that nobody stays dead in a comic book.

There used to be a saying "No one in comics stays dead except for Bucky Barnes, Jason Todd, and Uncle Ben." and recently new authors have brought back all 3.

4. Thanos' fights were too close for his power level. In reality they would be heavily lopsided.

Gonna have to disagree with you there. Thanos is a close-quarters destroyer, but that's all. Sure, he has the infinity stones, but he can only use one of them at a time. Even so, the fights are lopsided enough as it is.

Even when he does get hit, it does next to no damage to him. I don't know which fights you are referring to. He killed Loki and destroyed the Hulk in the first 10 minutes of the movie and manhandled the Avengers on Titan until they jarred his gauntlet, then resumed stomping them into the ground after he won the tug of war. His biggest wound came from Thor's ax. His second biggest wound was a small scratch on his face.

High tech societies have lower birth rates. Human populations decline without violence before they even reach carrying capacity. If you're talking about a planet of like Black Muslims then I think you can use the coyote comparison.

5/5, would watch several more times in a row.

I'm very glad they fixed Thor, he used to be shitty but now he's actually fun to watch.
Thanos is a good villain, menacing Dialogue + Actual emotional connection = badass
Why is Bruce Banner a thing?
The Musical Score was Incredible, gave me goosebumps
Let all the people who didn't die from the Snap stay dead, I dont need any more Loki, Heimdall, or Vision.

Don't confuse Movie Thanos with Comics Thanos. If they hadn't nerfed Thanos, the movie would just be 20 minutes of the Avengers getting their asses kicked.

Why do people keep paying to watch the same movie over and over again? Are the premises alone justification for watching the same formula Marvel regurgitates every couple months?

>reading comic books

pathetic

Many haters.

It's a movie, bro. We aren't really there to learn advanced literary techniques, we're there to see shit blow up and some funny lines delivered. If I wanted to consider the problems of the universe, I'd read Shakespeare or Hemmingway or some shit.

>we just want shit to blow up and some funny lines bro

there was a time when people were ashamed to be this retarded and vapid

You act like it's all people do. We have lives outside of movies as well. But they're a good way to take your mind of the stresses of real life. I'm not saying you have to like them, just understand why lots of people do.

People have lives outside of media. I argue the only kind of media people consume is vapid media. If you're going to spend time "de-stressing" in escapist media consume something intelligent. Hollywood action movies are designed to be simple for international audiences and children. They're also propaganda.

Predictable response by the wehraboo yet again.

low IQ

You've pretty much summed up the problem with the movie (and entertainment) industry: people are either too ignorant or indifferent about the media they consume being dumbed down to a ridiculous degree. I can't even blame the industry; after all, if you can make billions feeding people the same template, why bother changing? It's not that these movies need to be cinematic masterpieces in the slightest; I can buy into the idea of mindless entertainment to a slight extent. But having at least some thought-provoking moments or some unpredictability every now and then would do wonders to those movies. But I guess the payoff is too worthless to even implement those.

The Avengers franchise in particular has also had the added negative effect of moving the industry toward franchises (the most aggravating being the upcoming Avatar franchise when the first movie was one of the worst things I've ever seen). And with the way people are eating up Marvel movies, it won't be long before other franchises are cloning their efforts. DC is already trying to copy Marvel, they just need to add some more red herrings to their movies and they can probably achieve some success (provided they stop shooting themselves in the foot).

I'm not saying you have to like them, just understand why lots of people do.

I legitimately can't understand why people like these movies apart from their kitsch value. I think those movies disrespect their audience by refusing to change up their narrative in the slightest, which is why I can't understand the target audience. Do they want to have some comfort in knowing with complete certainty how the next two-and-a-half hours are going to play out? Or are the various "new" settings and concepts enough to make them believe they're watching an entirely new movie? I honestly want to know what makes these movies so engaging to some (most) people.

I may have enjoyed Infinity War, but I absolutely loathed The Last Jedi.
Marvel: lol, I'm not reading comic books, no spoilers for me.
Star Wars: Movies I can watch, alrightey then, no spoilers for me.
Infinity War:
>Actually made me question how good the good guys were
>mashed together the MCU with interesting relationships
>gets called mediocre.
The Last Jedi:
>Literally everything made predictable for a mindless audience. And it worked.
>Gets its dick sucked by every fan and critic.
It boggles my mind how mediocre it was.
Not everything needs to be a though-provoking masterpiece, but at least make it interesting with good action scenes or a good plot.
What attracts me to marvel movies is that they make different characters, and make them dynamic. First avengers was good because it showed the relationships very well. For me, the plot is not the same if the characters have different traits. For the force awakens, Rey was basically Luke without a penis. Thor and Iron Man face different problems in their movies, and solve them differently, showing their characteristics.
