They are gonna need to handle this just right because the idea of having to wait for Part 2 already kinda has me pissed off.

That didn't feel like a leap to me at all. In GOTG1 Gamorra was eye-rolling his advances, but they had the whole "pelvic sorcery" argument, by the end of the film she's a dancer. In GOTG2 that flirtation continues, and with Yondu gone at the end, there's an acknowledged affection there at the funeral scene. The desperation of her plea to be mercy-killed if Thanos takes her seemed like a perfectly opportune moment to introduce a first kiss to me.
Marvel Netflix exists forever in a timeline where the first Avengers happened a few months ago, but none of the other movies have
Probably because those shows are always anchored in New York.
Actually, Jessica Jones S2 references the Raft from Civil War
So in 2 years we might have a reference in DD S4 to "That big doughnut in the sky"
Which's why Thanos mocks Peter for punching him 'all that for a little blood...'
I don't agree. I think them being honest about how they feel, stripping away any facade, made sense with them facing such a dire situation. Like people getting married before one of the couple goes to war - that kind of 'If the worst happens I don't want this unsaid' love.
Well, I thought it was well done.
I think the Hawkeye stuff just got way overblown and the Russos just didnt handle it very well. He wasnt in any of the trailers and posters and they should have just said they were saving him for the next movie. Dont know why they were telling people that, but they really should have just said no hes not in it.
The Ant-Man and the Wasp will tie-in in some way im sure. Either directly, or with a post credits scene (like you said). Hopefully once they start talking more about A4 this stuff will get cleared up abit more.

Wonder how long the Netflix/Marvel deal is good for. Things will get really wonky once they get their own streaming service up and running. But I really hope they either work with Netflix, or allow them to atleast continue their shows till they can have a satisfying end point. Like them or not, the Netflix shows have a really good universe all on their own, and if Marvel decides to do new shows like Moon Knight or Blade, it would really be a shame to have them on their own, separate from the Netflix shows.
Really just want to see more Daredevil lol...
right I know that but its not necessarily said that it was created specifically because of the accords or that it didn't previously exist
Just full exposure to unrestrained comic book goofiness. 'You thought those were comic book movies? You don't even know what a comic book movie is".
I can't help but wonder if Infinity War is going to help or hinder Ant-Man's box office take.
Just thinking about film all day after seeing it last night. I honestly think that Josh Brolin steals this movie. He took what could have been a generic big bad guy and gave a performance that added depth. I love that they gave Thanos a logical reason to destroying half of the universe.
Just put a tie-in in trailers and it 100% will help
The movie releases in july, not june :p
After Thanos gets the soul stone, when he's laying in the water with the eclipse in the background, could that be a reference to Berserk? Man, it really reminded me of that.
But what's the more likely outcome?
A) Moviegoers are absolutely exhausted by the weight of Avengers Infinity War and can't stomach another superhero film for a good while.
B) Moviegoers are hyped by Infinity War and are anxious to consume as many superhero films as studios can throw at them.
They did. A live-action comic book crossover event, executed brilliantly. I wish I could go back in time and tell my 13-year-old self that one day he'd be in a theater watching a glorious adaptation of the Infinity Gauntlet storyline. Fucking Thanos will be a household name from now on, this whole MCU thing is bonkers.
Absolutely.
C) People gonna be torn apart by all their faves dying and want to see how they can save them
B. Watch Ant-Man and the Wasp outgross Solo:A Star Wars Story.
Seeing this with my wife tonight and I'm a little worried about her reaction to Groot disentigrating haha
They should have followed through on Rocket wanting to get Bucky's arm by having Bucky disintegrate but his arm stays and then Rocket picks it up. But they didn't.... cowards.
You can't do a joke when half the universe is getting phased out of existence
Whedon would've found a way.
It would've been out of place and unfunny, but he'd have done it.
Although Fury had a funny moment, but that was almost needed after everything else, and it was when people had taken in the events prior.
Whedon could have done it. Rocket would've used the arm to slap Black Widow's butt, after a recurring gag where he's too small to reach it.
While I am joking around, I do think you could do that in a serious way. Like, he's holding on to it for him or something.
So Strange looks into millions of potential futures, and sees only one that they win in. I imagine that in at least one of the failed futures they manage to get the Gauntlet off of Thanos' hand, and they still would've lost after doing so.
Phew, what a movie.
Phew, what a movie.
It was perfection.
That's the craziest thing for me, how well the funny and dark elements gelled together. The writers and directors were firing on all cylinders for this movie.
Honestly, after everything that happened, I can't really think of a better line to close out the movie on than "Motherfu-" It felt earned. The full curse would have felt earned, too.
This is accurate.
Gotta echo the rest of you. How did this work this well? I'm baffled.
We can safely call it the darkest and funniest MCU movie without exaggeration.
I'm so glad I wasn't spoiled on the Red Skull appearance. Imagine Cap seeing him again, he'd be fucking SHOOK.
This truly is the best Cinematic Universe.

My immediate thoughts getting out of the theater tuesday were "This generation's Empire Strikes Back." And "This is going to make children cry en masse."
Bravo, Marvel. It's been a while since a super hero movie actually felt like the events were impactful on the universe.
