ENDGAME SPOILERS!Don't bloody read any further you haven't watched it yet!!!

I've never cried so much in the cinema they really did a beautiful job of finishing up the storyline, yeah they pulled some unpopular moves with Thor and Steve but that's the reality of the sacrifices of leaving your old life and loved ones behind. With Scott and Carol it really shows how important the other movies are to watch and be aware of the little details bc they played a major role in saving everyone's ass. It was so beautiful that we got to see Tony seeing his dad, Thor and his mum, Steve seeing Peggy which perhaps is when his plan came to mind, it's so sad that Natasha and Tony didn't made it but without their sacrifices the avengers wouldn't have won. My favorite part was definitely everyone being released from the soul stone that was so bad ass and watching thanos die twice but I'm still trying to process it all.

I gots to discuss Infinity War: Spoilers everywhere under the cut.

I can see why a lot of people decided not to see Infinity War after seeing some spoilers. If I had known the details of one of the spoilers, I might have not gone to see the movie.

But I’ll get to that. (go to #6 to see right away)

Overall: I enjoyed the film. It’s not everyone’s bag, you have to be okay with pretty much 80% of the people dying. And going into it, I kinda had this idea so there was a certain excitement and zeal to that. Kinda like how writers get excited about torturing their favourite characters. BUT THEN I GOT THAT

AND

JESUS CHRIST

1) This movie doesn’t pull punches. Like, Gamora? The entirety of the guardians minus rocket? Spidey, Dr Strange, Black Panther, Heimdall, Bucky, Wanda, Vision, Sam, like...literally almost everyone. 

There’s definitely the idea of how do we break these characters? Gamora begging Peter to kill her, then him finally pulling the trigger to have it be warped by the gauntlet? That killed me, the characters were pushed to their limits of what they were willing to do to save each other. It was heartbreaking. Wanda has to do the same thing to Vision and succeeds, kind of. AND ITS HEARTBREAKING. JEsus FucKinG ChRisT.

2)This movie is, strangely, really really really funny. I caught myself laughing at times and begrudgingly so. 

Iron Man calling one of Thanos’ minions squidward had the entirety of my theatre cracking their ribs with laughter, we all lost it.  Drax has the best line in the movie.

3) I have never seen an audience cheer, and engage and then gasp. People were holding their heads and gasping, someone screamed no. IT was great audience experience. When Thor comes in with his Axe and decimates hundreds people people yelled YESSSSSS THORRRRR.

They do take time for each of characters to have powerful moments to mourn. And god it hurts. When Quill finds out about Gamora after Nebula connects the dots is heart wrenching. Tony watching everyone around him dying, including Doctor Strange? I did find the romance between Quill and Gamora a bit rush, but I think the Russos were banking on the audience basically expecting it so they kinda just got that ball rolling.

4) Many people took issue with the Russo’s after Civil War, decrying “where is our captain america movie? This was an Iron Man Movie.”

And their right, it was an avengers movie, and I don’t mind because it took the bad taste of Ultron out of my mouth, it provided ample chaos and dissent within the ranks to keep me happy. I don’t hate Iron Man, I would even say a casual fan. People demonised him after Civil War but after seeing his trauma, fuck up after fuck up and the weight of these fuck ups drive him to deman accountability? I appreciated that. And! I’m not a huge Captain America fan. I love Chris Evans, I love everyone’s love for the character. But I just don’t care about Cap. I don’t find him engaging, I am not invested in him, and I’m always happy to see him contribute to plot, I just don’t weep if I don’t see him. 

That in mind: The Russos? How did they do?

This is a tough movie to make in the best circumstances, how do you make sure that Marvel actually has one huge baddie and not a faceless army to smash? How do you keep the stakes? Make sure everyone’s got their fave characters represented? Make sure they get respectful deaths? Thread the stories together? And balance individuals story arcs with the main plot of the film. I think they did it well enough, and with humor and some compelling death scenes. Some parts dragged a little, and I think sometimes cut to a different story line when we were waiting for pay off in the moment. 

That being said I think I need to go over my favourite character and my least favourite part of this movie.

5) Thor is amazing in this movie. No really. Chris Hemsworth and the Russo’s knocked it out of the park. He doesn’t have the rapid fire improv jokes like Taika’s Thor but he still retains some of that. There’s a joke about Kevin Bacon and Thor’s response had the audience in stitches. He does huge feats of strength, he stares death in the face and he says come fucking get me I’m doing this for the universe anyways. He opens up the gate for the Forges of Nidavellir manually in the middle of space and is almost devoured by radiation. He takes down hundreds of mutated Chitauri with lightning, flight and great moves. But he’s a leader and a nomad sort of. I truly appreciated what he did. 

Rocket asks him about his life and Thor, trying to be brave through tears and sniffles, says that he has lost everything, his brother, his father, his sister, his mother, his home, his people. He’s got nothing left. He wipes his tears and smiles and your heart breaks. 

Okay...

So...

the part I hated. 

6) Loki’s death scene. *deep sigh* I’ve been mentally prepping myself for this since 2012 after the first avengers, that expectation was renewed after he survived Thor the Dark World. Third times the charm and the movie makes it amply clear that he isn’t coming back, even he can’t come back from that.  Him coming back from that isn’t the issue, I wasn’t hoping for that. 

I hated it because the death which I was expecting for so long WAS SO MUCH MORE GRATUITOUS THAN THE OTHERS.

Now you’re thinking, Jaria, are you not being overtly dramatic? NO! Even the others in my party were shocked, the theatre was shocked, it was uncomfortable, it was hair raising. Heimdall is stabbed through the chest, standard view of his dead body. Gamora, we see her sprawled at the foot of a cliff, everyone disintegrates into Ashes. But its either after the fact of death, a quick death, or like Lord Voldemort at the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.

Loki basically trades the tessaract for Thor’s life after trying to bluff. We all knew he had no ability to pretend he hates his brother, his brother is his whole life. Then after the Hulk fails to kill Thanos in a fight and is projected to earth by one last desperate move by Heimdall Thor is strapped down by huge bulks of metal hull until he can’t move and he can’t scream.

Loki waltzes out from a corner to try to bargain with Thanos, tell him he will need a guide for earth, all while unsheathing a dagger in his palm. Thanos isn’t stupid he sees this coming. Loki goes through the words we know so well: I am Loki, God of Mischief, (gives a loving look to Thor), son of Odin, and you will never be a god. 

Thanos YANKS him up by the neck in a huge fist and starts choking him. 

Guys, it feels like a full minute. A full minute of pure, unadulterated horror, watching Loki claw at his throat, begging Thanos to let him go. Loki wiggles and impotently fights and pounds at his fist, this face wrangled in pain, as he desperately fights for air, you watch the literal life pour of him, his mouth is open and gasping for air. 

IT. IS. SO. UNCOMFORTABLE. I CAN’T EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH.

His panic subsides and he dies. I’m not a squeamish person, I can stomach gore and yeah, I’ll recoil at first, but then I’ll forget about it and move on and probably demand more blood. This is a question of why so gratuitous? Why was it so much more disturbing than the other deaths? 

It’s gratuitous, it felt like something out of a show like Game of Thrones, I swear to god. I’m not making this up. IT felt above the maturity rating of any of the deaths. Kudos to Tom Hiddleston because HolY ShIT it was hard to watch, I can’t remember when I saw a movie when I felt like someone was actually dying in front of me. And I’ve seen him act out a death scene twice before as the same character. 

 Like I said, standard stab, post death at the bottom of a cliff, shot, dispersing into sand/paper. This...this stayed with everyone? People kept remembering during the evening, bringing it up and going: that was horrible?

Then, he’s dropped like a sack of grain. Thanos departs, and leaves Thor on a ship that’s literally exploding. HE crawls over Loki’s corpse, grapples onto his chest and holds on for dear life while sobbing. It’s gut wrenching. 

The reason this was so horrible was probably:

A) Loki isn’t coming back, it’s final this time.

B) Thor needed motivation, Loki was the last straw in some respects, his last tether and his beloved brother. So it makes sense for Thor to get all these emotional scenes, push into uncharted and dangerous territory and wage war on Thanos single handedly if he needed to.

He does sink an axe into Thanos and, in a roundabout way, say this is for Loki. Loki died a hero, which I’m happy about. But jesus fucking christ did I have to shake off the feeling that they actually killed someone on set? 

...

GUYS THAT WAS SO UNCOMFORTABLE, NOT JUST FOR FANS OF THE CHARACTER. THAT WAS ABOVE EVERYONE’S TALL ORDER FOR LOKI’S DEATH. IT WAS TOO MUCH. 

Now I’m pissed again. But I can say this movie is worth checking out for yourself to decide how you will feel about the film. I thought I wouldn’t enjoy it at all and came away with some parts I truly enjoyed. Except for the one with Loki (DID THEY HAVE TO DO THAT THAT WAY???!?!? COULD IT NOT HAVE BEEN A QUICK SWIPE TO THE NECK AND HAVE A SHOT OF HIM LYING DEAD?)

My brother and a couple of my friends were watching me for my reaction, a few people here too. To be frank Loki is one of my favourite characters period, so this was going to be a tremendously sad part for me. This is my reaction: I’m mad, sad, and gratuitously shooketh.

Theory about Infinity War (under the cut)

Spoiler post - DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THIS MOVIE

So, I was chatting in the car with my parents on the way back from seeing the movie. I was an emotional wreck for the obvious reason of Bucky and Steve CRUSHING MY HEART.

However, we began talking about what Strange said, about their odds of winning. He went through 14 million (?) scenarios in the future and came back with 1 that they could win.

Now, we know Strange was not going to give up that Time Stone for a guy he just met, no matter what he was meant to protect it. But here’s the thing, what if the reason he’s giving up the Time Stone is because he knows what has to happen for that 1 chance of winning to work. Strange is a smart guy, he’s not just going to give it up because he knows what the consequences are. Thanos might get what he wants for the time being but it doesn’t mean he has won.

I think the quote Strange says before he disappears off the top of my head was “It has to be this way.”

Does it have to be that way so that they can get that 1 in 14 million chance of winning against Thanos? Food for thought.

Hey everyone! I’m going to start reblogging Eternals stuff, if you don’t want to see spoilers I will be tagging them as #eternals, #eternalsspoilers, and #marvelspoilers

I just don’t want anyone to be spoiled!

[wellthatwasaletdown]

I mean, Stan Lee is gone, Chris Evans is gone, Scarlett and Robert are gone and now it’s being said Tom Holland’s contract is almost up. It’s a new Marvel and the new universe is frankly looking pretty terrible compared to the last. It’s lost that spark and coolness it had. I didn’t even bother going to see Shang-Chi and the Eternels promo is not impressing me and I’m a hardcore Marvel fan. About the only redeeming thing they have now is Loki.

Can’t agree with you more mod, this phase is kinda boring. I liked Loki and Loki is my fav character so that helps. I tried the falcon and the winter soldier but it was so boring I couldn’t finish it and the ending of WandaVision wasn’t great. I’m part of the MarvelSpoiler subreddit and it’s there where they leaked the plot of the Eternals and the end credits and when I read the plot I was massively disappointed. It seemed so boring and they changed a lot of the characters, like Ikaris, who’s supposed to be the main protagonist, they made into the villain and they kill off half of the eternals at beginning of the film. And then when I read the end credits I was like seriously??? Harry is in it and he’s playing the rapist eternal who is one of the lamest avengers?? Like why did marvel think this was the way to go?

Yeah, I think once Stan was gone and not really steering the ship anymore, it went off the rails. They will never again have the same magic they did for the last phase. Falcon and Winter Soldier was ok, but kinda boring and meh. I didn’t like Wandavision at all, so Loki was a nice surprise as I wasn’t even a fan of the character before. But this phase is so bad already and even the new Spiderman movie is looking bad. It’s pretty disappointing but nothing great lasts forever.
