Am I the only one that thought Old Captain America looked like Joe Biden? lol
Tony leaving his daughter behind... augh, my heart!
Just got back. Absolutely loved it. I'm gonna tell my friend that Hulk dabs and Thor yells at a kid over Fortnite because I know he won't believe me.

Who else immediately knew Tony would get the axe when they showed his happy family life? DO NOT CLICK OBVIOUS SPOILER
My bet is they're going Next Avengers in Phase 4. Potts can't handle being Iron Woman very well and wants to step down; also she's getting too old. Tony's daughter takes up the mantle. Big Banner serves as the 'Ersatz Beast' (because we still can't get the X-Men in here or, if we can, that's when the X-Men are going to start showing up). Theme's probably going to be something like the 'passing of the torch to the next generation' and 'the former heroes are now retired kings or shadowy legends in a world that's grown darker in their absence'. Or, who knows, maybe we'll just literally get Spiderman Ultimate but it's Next Avengers.
Feige already flatly stated no repeats as long as he's in charge, and he'll be in charge until after phase 5.
I actually forgot to mention that my favorite bit of End Game was when Scarlet Witch started showing off some, you know, actual sorcery and kicked Thanos' ass. I've been waiting to see her abilities on full display since Avengers: Age of Ultron, you know. Now that is "GIRL POWER!"
As soon as Tony said about his main priority being his family and how he couldn't lose it, I knew it was over. It's the equivalent of him saying "I'm only 1 week away from retirement."
I got goosebumps when Dr Strange gestured "1" with his finger and Iron Man finished with the line "I am Iron Man". Also when Captain America picked up Thor's hammer - oh my god.
The entire theatre I was in gasped and there was the clear noise of fanboys/fangirls desperately trying to not scream My friend was so overjoyed he grabbed my arm
Also we got confirmation that bloodlusted Scarlet Witch can kick Thanos’s ass. Rad.
I haven't watched Captain Marvel but every time she was on screen I felt like she was super unfitting. Maybe I need to address my personal biases but she felt really detached and 'better than all of this'
The only review needed is finally here, with some spoilers. https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/04/avengers-endgame-review-nostalgia-arrested-adolescents/ The directors Anthony and Joe Russo do routine CGI action, but they don’t know how to supply meaning to any of the goings-on, and that’s the major difference between MCU and the D.C. Comics Universe, which advanced from Christopher Nolan’s nihilism to Zack Snyder’s visual richness and emotional depth. Snyder’s Watchmen was the first comic-book movie to deal with mature themes and play out a credible moral dilemma. Going deeper with Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Snyder’s art angered the kiddies. MCU fans don’t know what great filmmaking is. They defer to their post–Star Wars indoctrination. The Russo brothers’ big battle isn’t a climactic summation, just a clash of CGI dots like the indecipherable, interminable Lord of the Rings skirmishes. And the sentimental, nostalgic farewell to two beloved Avengers is hokey. Snyder rescued comic-book movies from nihilism and juvenilia, making modern myths worthy of adult spirituality and politics. Avengers: Endgame takes place in a violent kindergarten.
She's not syfy level acting, but she's not marvel level acting much less marvel got that ______ actor to sign a contract, holy shit. She's literally generic.
I don't like captain marvel. The movie was absolutely rubbish, and her character was COMPLETELY unlikeable I genuinely can't think of a single aspect of her character that I like.
I saw Captain Marvel yesterday, for the first time, only knowing that people think it's absolute hot garbage and I enjoyed it. No more moping around what a terrible responsibiltiy it is to have powers, no more learning for an hour how to be a hero, no more "I don't think I can do this" ect. Not saying it was perfect, but it was an absolutely okay Marvel movie.
Hello Armond White. I should have known!
Anyone have a l Nk. He picked the only scenario where the avengers could win
It really was a love letter to the fans , goddamn I loved it.
I got spoiled by waking up and opening discord, im not good enough at dodging them
I got spoiled by some asshole on Facebook. Thankfully it was mostly stuff I predicted would happen. Film still surprised me nonetheless

Hulk was the biggest letdown of the film for me. He was funny but I just wanted to see some hulk smashing.
Wish I could paid to write shitposts disguised as reviews.
Can we all agree that old cap in this timeline is a plothole?
Just finished watching it with my brother and stepdad. Loved every single moment of it. What an amazing payoff.
I just think her powers are lame.. She's like a scaled down Supermman and her "fighting style" mostly makes me think of DBZ characters in space duking it out. On a sidenote: Is it just me or have they greatly lowered the damage resulting from mortals using the stones? GoG and Quill almost dust himself from using just one of the stones(albeit the power stone)
Jesus Where do they go from there?
I heard a theory that "old cap" was in that timeline the entire time and they just kept it a secret, though I doubt its plausibility.
