Jason Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Basically just copying a comment I saw on reddit, but Spoiler there was all that speculation about whether Endgame would be used to explain how mutants will appear now that Marvel has X-Men back, and Rocket's comment about Earth being ground zero for a huge amount of cosmic energy being released when Thanos did the snap seems likely to be that lead-in.

Reputator Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Saw it today. It's not flawless but this is, I think, about as good as humans could have ever ended it. I love that there was definitive closure. I love that every classic Avenger got their moment and newer characters like Danvers didn't steal the spotlight. I just loved this movie. So many moments in this movie were so amazing the feeling was sheer youthful exhilaration. This felt like a cultural moment in history. The sort of thing where every person who experienced it first hand when it happened probably won't forget how those moments made them feel. The payoff for the past 11 years was 100%. This was an amazing feat. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently he's said in interviews that he's fine with it since he got to be in a bunch of different types of movies instead of being shackled to the MCU, but that could easily just be about not wanting to burn bridges with the biggest movie company in the world.

I just loved this movie When Breaking Bad ended, I said that the simple fact that they didn't fuck up the finale was in and of itself extremely impressive, given how hard it is to end TV shows in a satisfying fashion. The fact that it was actually good was practically just a bonus. I likewise feel that the baseline here was to simply not fumble the ball, given how easily this kind of movie could have gone wrong, and they more than exceeded that baseline.

Pikachu Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 I clapped in this movie more times than any other movie I have seen combined. Really a fantastic ending and lots of payoffs.

johnny Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Honestly my theatre got more pumped at the end of Creed II than during Endgame and I support it. I’m in California and I swear half my theatre sounded like they were from philly cheering on Creed. Endgame crowd was pumped too but this just proof killmonger shouldn’t have died in BP.

Nothing wrong with it, it is AMC, but people just don't go there much. Like, this is the most packed I saw this place since the the 2005, and there were only 30 people there. I also almost never go opening weekend, but I basically had to if I didn't want the entire movie spoiled. The movie wasn't even out and I got spoiled. Edit: I think it is weird to clap at a movie.

So if everyone came back exactly where they were, wouldn't that mean some people immediately fell to their deaths? I guess it depends on how Bruce Bulk made his wish. If he wished it in a way where the stones would bring them back safely they could have been undusted on solid ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second energy spike in that other planet was a fully powered snap to destroy the stone. The concept of the multiverse created from branching timelines is more is more likely to bring the X-men and other mutants into the MCU. Or they have scarlet which kind of do the opposite of The House of M story arch where she wished for no more mutants. Instead she wishes mutants into existence. Maybe in some attempt to have more people understand the kind of cursed life she lives as an enhanced human. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chairslinger Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I am hoping to go see Endgame on Wednesday or Thursday. I don't bother to go see movies in theaters much, but I am hyped for it. I actually waited for the first IW to come out on video and amazingly managed to avoid spoilers all that time(others than hint here or there that the bad guy kind of won and something big happened at the end) but I don't want to risk it again since Endgame is a payoff for so much.

Bacon Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I was not a fan of Spoiler The Hulk. Just overall, I would have preferred more Hulking out. I don't mind Bruce and Hulk being one, but when you hear that the Hulk is literally killing people in the cartel, and then you get... that thing. The OK-ish Bulk. It is just kinda weak. I don't want to see the Hulk be tamed and neutered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Also, Spoiler If Thanos can just kill everyone and make a whole new universe, why can't he just make loads of food? Like, I thought the stones were a 1 time use, but they aren't. So, why not use it to create? Literal endless prosperity. Of course, governments and despot will still be governments and despots, but still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Before Endgame I said it would be cool if a very small percentage of those that were snapped back were mutated. You could also have that only affect women who were pregnant at the time. You could also have that be the case for women who were pregnant and survived the snap. That is, the radiation did something to the unborn children exposed to the stones' radiation. That would mean we currently have some 4 and 5 year olds that could manifest powers any time now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could also just get another time skip. It's currently 2024 in the MCU? Now I have to wonder. Will Marvel squeeze many movies and events into the same year to get the real calendar matching the MCU's again or will they just not care anymore? That is, just have the next five years of movies all take place in 2024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
