The other element about Thor that cannot be understated, is when Mjolnir answers him. He was clinically depressed, and didn't have the emotional spoons to do much of anything... but according to the magic on Mjolnir, that didn't make him unworthy. That was an *amazing* message to send to those fighting such demons.

Real, but also Jesus is even better. If you didn’t know, Jesus will fulfill you more than anything in this world, I speak from experience (from when i did Romans 10:9-13), he loves you and wants to be in a meaningful (not romantic) relationship with you. :) “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭9‬-‭13‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭1‬:‭15‬ ‭KJV‬‬ If you want proof that Jesus and the Bible are true look a documentary called “Ron Wyatt discoveries 2022” on KZbin and a KZbin channel called Expedition Bible. They both examine archeological sites and discoveries that prove the Bible, and even reference secular sources. (Just don’t convert to 7th day Adventism after watching the documentary) And lastly if you don’t know the gospel and want to be saved search up “abc’s of Salvation Teenmissions” on Google and it should be the first or second result. When you click on it read the whole thing, and do what it says and have faith in Jesus while you are doing it, do not doubt, and if it is hard for you to do what it says, ask Jesus to help you, have faith that he will, and *he will.* God Bless :)

[@Londubh]

@@plzletmebefrank "spoons" are used as a metaphor for energy reserves. It comes from a story wherein someone with a chronic illness was explaining to her friend what is like to be sick like that, at some diner. The knives and forks from the place settings had been cleared away, so all that were left were the spoons. She grabbed the dozen or so spoons and gave them to her friend, and asked what activities they wanted to do each day, and took away some number for every task, depending on how much energy it took. The friend kinda freaked out when they went from plenty of spoons to very few, and hadn't even gotten to the "have lunch" part of their day. It was such a useful metaphor, so viscerally understandable, that the meme spread. And now the meme has spread to you

No? Did they atleast mention the giant celestial who showed up in New York and abducted 3 people? Nope! Maybe they atleast picked up on people killing at random because of lack of trust after Skrulls? Were yet to see that but I'm gonna guess not as the world looked fine in Captain Marvel Everyone keeps saying that it's the writing, yes it's an issue, but the biggest issue with me, is there's no connectivity left in a shared universe, I wanna see one story lead into another, I want to see the end credits be for another movie, not just adding another character who may or may not get a movie in, like, 5 years

One thing left out about Thor is that he is still almost a child in Asgardian terms. Remember when Eitri says" well done boy". Eitri knew, in Asgardian terms, Thor is still very much young in both strength and wisdom. Asgardian Gods get stronger as they age so this Thor was not yet a match for Thanos. I think there was a comic story where Thor was made to get older by Thanos who did not realize it made Thor stronger, not weaker. I rarely comment, but this thought has been on my mind for a while.

The best continuation Marvel threw in there was from Avengers 1. "Everything special about you came from a bottle" Tony replies to Cap in Avengers 1. In Endgame, Cap proves him wrong by picking up Mjolnir "The only thing you really fight for is yourself. You are not the guy to make the sacrifice play" Cap tells Tony in Avengers 1. Iron Man sacrificing himself in Endgame proved Captain wrong. Gotta love how they set up those two scenes in Endgame way back in Avengers 1.

[@summertyme5748]

Yes, but it has deeper levels than that. Steve and Tony broke up - during the Civil War. That in part led to the Avengers defeat. But in the end both characters learned from the other so.... Tony falls on the grenade (the sacrifice play) Steve cuts the wire (he gets a life/instead of trying to end his life) They prove each other wrong - because they *learn* from each other. It's one of the best character arcs in these kinds of films ever. Things like Avatar that some confuse for 'good films' - in comparison just make me laugh. 2 of those films and I don't think there are *any* characters, even now. Jake Skully still a plot armored bro Jughead. Quarzreich SS or whatever his name is, is still a bigoted buffoon.

I regretfully disagree. No, actually, the MCU will not always be fun. Disney/Marvel is focusing upon identity politics propaganda to the exclusion of absolutely everything else, including good story creation, good screenwriting, good acting, and good production quality. Even the most basic things about movie making, like basic continuity, is missing. The vast majority of screen and streaming productions that have come out of Disney and its divisions have been at best mediocre, and at worst absolutely abysmal failures. They have destroyed every other franchise they have taken possession of, and they are soon to do it to the “Avengers” franchise as well. At some point, very soon, they will sacrifice the budding “Spider-Man@ franchise upon the altar of “The Message”. There is nothing enjoyable about that.

[@johntrench]

@@BionAvastar3000 no, Marvel has never been this preachy. Well, OK, once in my youth when it got all aware of some of the drugs and in equities, but then it gave us exactly what we were looking for again, entertainment. We had that stuff in our face all the time, we didn’t want it in our face when we were being entertained. And you have addressed none of the points. They have put identity politics ahead of good story, ahead of character, development, ahead of story. things have come out since endgame have been mediocre at best, most of them far worse than mediocre. And for the record, I do watch DC. I grew up with both of them, not quite the generation where they started, but not too long after that. And no, the notion that, say, mutants are different than other people that aren’t mutants doesn’t qualify as the same as the identity politics extreme to which they take it now. So here you go: One. I get that you apparently like it. That’s your prerogative. It doesn’t change the fact that this is bad material. Bad productions for the cinema, bad productions for the streaming service. Two. I’m assuming that you “like it”, because you are all about the identity politics. The perennial victim hood, kind of thing. That’s the impression you’re giving. I can see no reason for liking the material that has come out since endgame. None of it has been good, none of it has even been coherent. They used to have people who would ensure consistency between scenes. The people were wearing the same tie they were wearing before, they were holding the same coffee mug they were holding before, etc. They miss on this. These productions are just going through the motions of being productions. It is the central message, the propaganda, that is meaningful. At least to them. They sacrifice everything else for that. And that just doesn’t work as a movie, or as a streaming show. Three. Having a message, whether identity, politics, or other, is no excuse for bad storytelling and poor production values. It’s no excuse for flat, two dimensional acting. Four. The identity politics that you’re siding, is not the same as the identity politics they are vaguely smearing with the characters in these franchises. I’m fighting in World War II does not qualify as “identity politics. Is giving these characters backstory that explains some of their attitudes. That worked in the X-Men, showing Magneto became who he was. They’re not doing that in these new shows. The race, the gender, the sexual orientation, are not part of the characters backstory. They are the story. Nor the points they are making entirely right. They are simply assuming they’re right. Representation is fine, but they’re not doing diversity and inclusion and equity. They’re simply reversing the discrimination. They’re still excluding. And the groups that they are representing, to be fair, overrepresented. We’re getting things that emphasize, say, sexual identity. The LGBTQ plus community constitutes approximately 2.2% of the world population according to best census data. Do you want to do diversity, equity, inclusion, equity would require that they be 2.2% of the emphasis. If we want to get technical. But they’re not. They are the emphasis. Women being able to do anything and everything men can do, is the message. And it’s wrong. Men and women are fundamentally different. Two parts of a human species with entirely different roles, entirely different capabilities that they evolved for. Characters that are being swapped in gender, swapped, which is disrespectful to the material, and disrespectful to the races and genders that are being swapped in. It’s basically, admitting that one has no confidence that these people can stand on their own and support a show. For a while they were going to race swap Superman, to connect back to your “go watch DC “bullshit. There’s no reason to believe that there weren’t shadings of skin on the planet krypton, assuming that we’re going to accept that there’s a planet where the species evolve to look exactly like us, or we exactly like them, even though the odds of that are vanishing small. Small enough to be, on a day-to-day basis, insignificant and inconsequential. why don’t you think about the material considerate critically, instead of looking through whatever identity politics lens you view the world through currently. Then go back and watch those shows again, this time with your brain engaged.

@@johntrench I agree that it's good to watch shows critically, and there have definitely been some trash comics and shows, (She-hulk in particular springs to mind), but you need to go back and read the comics from the beginning, I mean the really beginning, from the golden age, and tell me that the stories were always peak fiction all the time.

@@BionAvastar3000 I don’t think you and I are disagreeing in substance, merely an emphasis. One place I vehemently disagree with you is the “don’t like it, don’t engage.“ It is perfectly legitimate to engage in criticism and backlash as an audience, along with voting with our feet and our dollars. I agree with you that it has always been an Ebben flow as well. Unfortunately, we are in a massive. The attack on pop culture, with the sacrifice of production, quality and entertainment value, to focus on the all important biased and extremist sociopolitical and sociosexual narrative and agendas, are a case in point. They are part and parcel of the extremist polarization we see occurring both in our body politic, and in our society is a. That polarization is not healthy. The degeneration of society into further polarized “communities“ based on race, gender, identity, liberal versus moderate versus conservative, politics, etc., is also not a healthy development. It is perfectly legitimate for fans to impose a negative backlash against production companies, disrespect the franchises they have come to know. It is more appropriate to engage in negative criticism and backlash in response to poor production values, lack of development, poor acting, and SGN language - Intensive attacks on the viewing public for not liking and accepting the propaganda trash that has been coming out recently. For not liking accepting the poor production quality that has been onto theater screens and streaming services and into print media in recent years. Those are going to continue. I am perfectly content to be a part of them. As for going back and reading the comics, all the way into the past, I’m willing to bet that I am further along in that regard than you are. That’s not as an insult or a negative jab in anyway. I was born in the 1950s, I’m 66 years old, and in my day I have been “privileged“ to read comics from the very beginning (albeit through reprints), and to grow up with “Spider-Man”, “X-Men”, “Fantastic Four”, Star Wars”, “Indiana Jones” and a variety of other franchises, both now within the unfortunate possession of Disney, and from other productions studios, as a contemporary. I think it gives me a bit more unique perspective since I have watched the evolution of a lot of this media, from its legitimate emphasis on quality, broad appeal entertainment that just happens to contain information or plot lines regarding issues of the day, to the current propaganda pieces that present, not only the issues of the day as to the detriment of production quality, acting, and story franchises that are not about those issues, specifically biased and extremist on those issues. The majority of people don’t want that. That is reflected in the rapid decline in viewership, theater, attendance, ticket sales, comic book, sales, and massive rise in negative criticism and negative backlash. We live immersed in reality. We seek entertainment outlets to escape, not to have it rammed in our faces, particularly by people who have rather extremist views, many of which are decidedly disconnected from reality in aptly named “social justice warriors“, and the overly fascist censorship and dehumanization and deletion tactics of cancel culture. None of these trans are efforts to appeal to a “new demographic“, or to bring in an entirely new massive fan base. Those don’t exist. If they did, they would have rushed to support movies like “The Marvels”. They would have been out in force supporting the trailers for the upcoming Disney excretion, “The Acolyte”, which would have been reflected in a decidedly positive ratio of responses to negative instead of the record-breaking negative ratios that both of the trailers received, massive negative race, not the product of a tiny minority, and massive negative ratios against the few ads that have been out. as an aside, I can’t wait to see how the producer/show runner and the president of Lucas film twist and turn and Dodge to avoid accepting personal responsibility and be accountable for the failure of that show, as is highly likely to happen, it fails, even more miserably than the trailers dead. And I can’t wait to see the irrational mental gymnastics they engage in in order to blame it all on a “minority of opinionated fans” that they somehow convinced the vast majority of the viewing to not like their work, something that implies that the vast majority the public are mindless sheep that are easily lead by that minority, but somehow are not responsible equally minority message. Senseless. I can’t wait to see how they twist reality, to what death of delusion they sink, in order to attempt to blame that failure, which may represent anything from mediocre, showing to being an outright bomb, upon men. Particularly, heterosexual white men. Their boogie man of choice. The manner in which the superhero movies in the Marvel tent were skillfully crafted and connected together, leading up to “Avengers Infinity, War“, and “Avengers Endgame“, was truly masterful. It does represent a high peak in cinema, and establishes a very high bar that Disney Marvel fails to even approach, let alone clear. They’re showing has been even more pathetic and blatantly agenda driven in the Disney Lucas film division and it’s treatment of both. “Indiana Jones” and the “Star Wars” franchises. The failures they have been experiencing provide proof positive that people do not want blatant, extremist agenda, politics in their entertainment. They do not want messages targeted at changing values and attitudes in their children, circumventing their rights as parents, in the entertainment. They want entertainment, high quality, broad based audience appeal, devoid of agenda and narratives instead of saturated with and focused upon them to the exclusion of everything else. Loud fan/audience, criticism, huge negative backlash, along with voting with feet and dollars, are all legitimate expressions against those things. Telling people to “don’t like it, don’t engage”, “go make your own media” simply won’t cut it. The attacks will go on. And there is some indication that they are having the desired effect. Please excuse any weird punctuation, bits of weird grammar, and odd, weird choices. I am using the voice recognition function on my iPhone, as I am traveling, to compensate for a hand injury that prevents me from simply typing. I’m not sure I agree with your statement that the MCU “will never recapture this perfection” either, however, that is not a disagreement specifically with you, as much as it is a statement of hope on my part. I see no reason why, if they focus upon production quality and get out of gender, identity, politics, Disney, LucasFilm, Marvel, and Pixar can’t continue to break new ground and achieve new heights. So that’s not an argument, that’s just the hope. Addendum: your specific mention of the ill-fated “She Hulk” series is particularly resonated with me. It is also an unfortunate example of the extreme to which people involved in the production, in this case, particularly the actress, will blame the fans, tell them to shut up, tell them that they have to accept what they’re giving, etc., all the witch exhibits, particularly toxic level of overblown, self entitlement, and hubris, as well as an utter disrespect, on not entering into contempt, for the audience. This is what I think is the problem with Disney and its divisions today, and it’s a problem they need to solve in order to achieve any significant level of success. They’re allowing these problems to enter into even the theme park, where they are eliminating things that no one found objectionable, and putting in attractions that attract no one. They appear to be not merely going into damage control, but to be actively seeking someway to backpedal while saving face, which is a sort of positive sign. The reality is, they’re going to have to accept losing some face, they’re going to have to accept the level of disrespect that they have brought upon themselves, in order to be able to, fix the problem that they have caused, and if it’s possible, fix the severe damage, they’ve done to so many of the franchises, so IP they have taken possession of and have all but destroyed.

​@@beastboyviv5255peak cinema? Oh, it was good, don't get me wrong. It will be remembered for years to come. But it's not peak cinema. For all its strength in world building and character growth, the MCU, even at its peak, lacks thematic depth. It doesn't challenge perceptions, it doesn't work with grand ideas, it's not even pushing innovation. Endgame was the end of a very well crafted narrative, that shines by not dropping any balls through 22 movies with a crazy cast of 30 characters. That is impressive. It's also algorithmic.

Endgame was unique in the way that it had no "happy" moments. Most movies follow the same basic pattern. Introduction which can be happy or sad,then the main story which is full of negative emotions with the villain's plan succeeding to some degree or starting to succeed, but then the heroes manage to win and there's a happy ending. Endgame meanwhile started very sad, then the main story had the same mix of successes and defeats but in the end, even though the heroes won, no one is fully happy because we still lost one of the greatest heroes.

[@summertyme5748]

*Steve Rogers* In 1st Avenger: Steve Rogers [pre serum] , tells Peggy about all the fights he's had and lost. She asks why he kept fighting [why not run away?] His answer - as a scrawny young man - who had polio as a kid - is that he always had something to prove. Peggy's reply: _I know something about that._ (as a woman - as opposed to undersized man - who had the heart of a fighter) When it's suggested that he find himself a girl (try being a lover, and not a fighter all the time) - Steve replies that girls: _terrified him._ Go watch the film again, because some of the Steve stans deny this, cuz they are like little kids and actually share the characters insecurities. lol. Peggy then coyly says: _Maybe you just have not found the right girl._ And this leads to their romance - in which Steve promises to come back to Peggy. But in the climatic final scenes of the film - *He breaks his promise.* Steve choses to go down with the ship - to finally realize his goal of dying a hero, and thereby SKIRTING the one thing *he stated* he truly feared....girls. Love. Can't be overstated: He didn't just prevent the plane from hurting others...he could have jumped out...nope HE WENT DOWN WITH THE PLANE. He "died/not/died" - *rather than* risk going back to Peggy. Talk about standing up a date! lol. [it's Peggy *not Bucky* that he broke his promise to - but again Steve and Bucky stans view the film as 12 year old boys would and they completely ignore all of the above because the 'girl' from their perspective is just getting in the way of the Batman and Robin comic book for little boys....they are trying to sustain in their heads] In Age of Ultron - Ultron calls Steve out, and understands his story - better than many people writing in these forums: _Aaaagh! Captain America. God's righteous man. Pretending you could live without a war. I can't physically throw up in my mouth, but..._ Mind Stone enhanced Ultron gets it. And so does Steve - when Wanda hexes him and see's the life he ran away from.... _Are you ready for our dance? The war is over Steve? _We can go home now!_ - Peggy When Steve travels back in time - he sees that Peggy never did forget him - never got over him. He realizes their love is mutual - and timeless. *He can go home now.* When he travels back in time and returns the stones, he then makes the choice that is opposite of his 1st Avenger choice. He choses the lover this time - over the soldier. He choses Peggy *over* Captain America [again unacceptable to 12 year old boys, but the film is written for adults]. In doing so he also answers the Challenge that Tony 1st put to him: *To get a life.* To try cutting the wire for once - instead of trying forever to fall on the grenade. Stop being afraid of living, and so trying to give your life - and *get a life* instead. And it was beautiful. In so doing Steve Rogers completes his character arc, [some 'fans' don't even get that character arc implies change due to the narrative- not repetition despite the narrative. Just writing 101, but they haven't gotten that far yet, lol]

[@zonesproductions]

I 100% agree. This is one of the reasons the MCU worked so well up to this point. There was a plan (maybe not known entirely) and they kept to it. Just like with Tony constantly upgrading his suits to counter his past failures. Goddammit, I love these films 😂

[@summertyme5748]

Tony upgrading his suit. People ask where the Nano Tech Infinity Gauntlet comes from at the end of the film. But the film sets it up beautifully all the way back to Infinity War. When they meet Thanos minions for the 1st time: He takes off his glasses - and makes a fist with his right hand as the nano tech glasses absorb *into* his armor. _Where'd that come from?_ - Bruce _It's nano tech - you like it?_ - Tony In Endgame he swore he decided to give up and move on - but Morgan finds that he created a new suit - for Pepper. At the end of Endgame - when Hulk is about to 'snap' with the gauntlet - Tony puts an *energy* shield around himself and Hawkeye. This is new. Then Thanos attacked him with the power stone - he had to use nanite shield but when it eroded it allowed the integrity of his armor to be destroyed. He's still...still...trying to figure out how he might have won if he just had the right tech! So now we know when Rocket and Banner and Tony are fitting the stones to the new Infinity Gauntlet - where it came from. But you have to be paying attention. This film *rewards* you for carefully paying attention.😎

[@summertyme5748]

When folks say Tony - kind of fell on the grenade in Avengers 1, I think they are missing the essence of the difference between cut the wire, and fall on grenade. Steve Rogers in Captain America didn't just ditch plane with the bombs on board: *He went down WITH the plane.* He literally chose death. When Tony pushed the Nuke thru the portal and fell back to earth, he found a way to win, without dying. He did not push the Nuke into the ship and blow up with it! Effectively Tony - *jumped out* of the plane (or portal in this case) before it exploded. Because that's what Tony would do. Tony's courage was never in question, but his ego and self absorption was in question. What happens if the hero finally can't outsmart the problem and has to choose finally between himself and everyone else. If he can't do that is he really a hero? Steve has the opposite character path. He was always ready to fight and die, as if that was *all* he lived for. *This is what Ultron (and the mind stone) perceived...they saw right thru the façade of the man who isn't afraid of dying, because he is more afraid of living.* To complete himself Steve had to get a life, and Tony has to give his. For the fans who can't deal with actual character arcs - we get it. Yet it's not much of an argument regarding quality of storytelling as Endgame is one of the few of these films that's even worth discussing in terms if examining the choice that the characters make and what that says about them. This film is an *underrated* masterpiece that demands *more* of its audience, instead of asking nothing of them while handing out lollipops of fan service.

The other line is, possibly, the most important. Cap's line about Tony. "You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play..." Tony's final act, pain coursing through him, guts it out, looks Thanos in the eyes, and delivers his "I am Ironman." line, while undoing Thanos and his army, and sacrificing himself.

[@summertyme5748]

In the original Infinity Gauntlet storyline from the comics: Thanos realizes that once he has the time stone, then any outcome he doesn't like can simply be reversed. In Doctor Strange (MCU film) - Strange realizes that he can stalemate even the God of the Dark Dimension Dormammu, by setting a time 'bomb' which triggers whenever he disconnects from the time stone. (Strange doesn't loop Dormammu in time - watch film again - he *loops himself.* Dormammu loops with him due to causality - which the film understands even if some in the audience do not). This is why the idea that the Avengers should go back in time to when Thanos already has the stones is so daft, so much the produce of too many movies where the hero wins no matter what because they have ridiculous plot armor and the villain is just made stupid. But in Endgame - the villain isn't stupid, and the heroes don't have infinite plot. Hence from film... Steve: _Tony, you faught Thanos, and..._ Tony: _Who told you that? There was no fight, because he's unbeatable._ Tony's despair, his fear, and the fact that the Avengers *cannot* defeat villain and in fact he has no interest even in trying again.... is the truth of the story. It's a place this genre is afraid to go. And it's another reason why this is the best of these stories.

@@noobmaster69426 Lol. You're both right. I consider Winter Soldier/Civil War/Infinity War/Endgame - one giant story. It's actually amazing how much continuity there is in between them. You understand better now - how Hydra ends up with the mind stone. How the Avengers break up in Civil War sets them up for defeat. You remember that Civil War introduced Black Panther AND Spiderman. Infinity War gave Spiderman is best line ever (which was later ruined by No Way Home) _You can't be a friendly neighborhood Spiderman....if there's no neighborhood!_ (in No Way Home kid regresses into trying to brainwash the world so his friends can get into a snooty school, and ends up getting aunt may killed, sigh) Endgame settles the fight between Steve and Tony by having Tony fall on the grenade and which finally enables Steve to cut the wire. This is simply one of the best plot twists since Vader - turned out to be Lukes father.

[@summertyme5748]

*Captain Marvel vs. Thanos* (this fight is underrated) If you watch the fight you can see. Danvers absorbed energy from ship firing at her. (Her power halo grows) She releases the energy within the ship and destroys it. (Her halo diminishes) She tries to get the Gauntlet into the Quantum Tunnel. Thanos weapon triggers an explosion destroying the Quantum Tunnel and the blast and interaction between the Gauntlet knocks the gauntlet out of Carol’s hand and knocks the rest of her team out of the fight. Now Thanos has the Gauntlet! Carol is easily over powered and ragged dolled. Thanos is about to snap - the Avengers are going to lose! But Carol grabs Thanos thumb with one hand (!) and his pinky with the other hand (!) and uses all her might to prevent him from snapping. As Thanos has engaged the Gauntlet and Danvers is holding his hand - > Now the power is coming off the Gauntlet and she is *absorbing it.* Her Power Halo grows. Thanos head butts her to get her to turn the gauntlet loose but she is unphased. Now *Thanos is losing!* Thanos realizes this - he pulls the power stone out of the Gauntlet (diminishing Carols’s power) - he absorbs the damage to his hand which would probably fry any mortal, possibly Carol included. Now Thanos is powered up by the power stone and he one punches Danvers knocking her out of the fight. We don’t see her, or any of Danvers team again until after Tony ends it all by nano snagging the stones, snapping and dying.

Brilliant breakdown! I don't think Endgame did anything 'impossible' though, its actually quite simple - The Infinity Saga was planned. As Phase 3 came to a close, the details were written ahead of production so that the movies would make sense in terms of continuity, and address all the character arcs with creativity and emotional resonance. It balanced humour with levity to create charm, that has been utterly lost since because the MCU has no clear plan, no evident direction, and far too many spinning plates to be consistent. I doubt the MCU will ever peak like this again, but hopefully in years to come they conclude the Multiverse Saga soon and go back to quality>quantity. There are still endless possibilities for movies and tv shows, so why not take time to make them good?

Agreed. Five years later, it's still my favorite comic book movie and one of my favorite films of all time. Given the trend of bad movies and shows since 2021, I hope they play their cards right in the future.

I didn't fail to realize it. I've been saying that Infinity War and Endgame are once in a generation experiences since the beginning.

[@Vyan00]

Oh, we realized it then. Immediately.

[@RameshSharma-jh6uk]

I recently lost my dad, now I know what I would do to see my dad again just like how Tony met stark senior one last time in Avengers Endgame.

From MSN article ranking the best MCU films.... "Number 1. Avengers: Endgame (2019) Avengers: Endgame stands tall as the pinnacle of the Marvel Cinematic Universe for a multitude of reasons. This cinematic titan isn't just a movie - it's the climax of an intricately made web of stories that spanned over a decade. The film is an absolute masterclass in storytelling, bringing together a plethora of characters and plot lines in a way that feels both epic and intimate. It's the emotional resonance that sets Endgame apart. The movie takes its audience on a rollercoaster of feelings, from the depths of despair following the catastrophic events of Infinity War to the triumphant highs of its final battle."

This is why im glad they cut a bunch of the rocket raccoon scenes, like the one making fun of Avengers 1. Out of context they were funny, but they would have undermined the movie.

[@noobmaster69426]

I'm glad that was a deleted scene bc it felt corny

[@cookephsh91]

Blows my mind that "end game" came out 5 years ago. Such a classic that it feels timeless

[@summertyme5748]

Whereas more recent Marvel films have been forgotten. Try having a forum on No Way Home, nothing to discuss except how Sony's agenda to revive all their old/dead characters required Peter and Strange to be behave like idiots and get Aunt May killed in the process.

[@noobmaster69426]

I agree

[@amiprasis]

Endgame is just magic. Bringing back everything from the whole batch of superstar characters to combining the scriptures level storylines to keeping the Marvel spirit of fun and seriousness is simply beyond Marvelous. It's pure Magic. The best movie ever made.

[@summertyme5748]

Infinity War fans, the above comment shows the difference. Saying “Infinity War is > Endgame” is not the same as saying Infinity War is great. Your semantics reveal that you are less interested in Infinity War being praised than you are upset at Endgame being praised. This is worth noting because one by one - you say the same thing - but don’t see what you are revealing.

He's so BACK

[@FenixPajarito]

I can't believe it has been 5 years that the MCU is Dead.

[@basilhenry-eyo6522]

This was the last Marvel movie that made me feel all sorts of emotions fr. Your points are so valid Mehn!!❤️🔥💯

[@ChadeGB]

Great, thanks a lot, now I've got to watch them again. That's the kind of movie they are, if you talk about them, read about them, watch something about them, you have to watch them again. Like LotR.
