  • OH NO A COMIC BOOK MOVIES DEATH WONT BE AS PERMANENT AND FINAL AS A COMICK BOOK DEATH!!!

    Come on Rob, superheros NOT staying dead is literally the source material so can you really be that mad at that part?

    The blue balls part I totes get though, a lady in ours shouted out after thanos front porch scene, "ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?" Can't say that I blame her. The wait will be a pain in the ass.

    • It's not that I'm mad I was just bummed with how it was handled. The stuff that should have been a gut punch wasn't but since it's only half a movie I know I need to wait to fully judge it until next year *grumble grumble*

          I get it, but we knew before it was released anyone dying that's not Cap or Iron Man probably isn't staying dead. To many of them have sequels coming out. Plus I feel like if ALL of the deaths were as weighted as

          then that section would have drug on like the end of Lord of The Rings.

            just for that honest to goodness gut punch, and Cap could be the one to

            The way they handled it just didn't do ANYTHING for me. it's cool, I don't hate the movie, I just think it's okay. But that could totally change once the second half is released. But that still doesn't change that this movie made me want to punch StarLord in the fucking taint. Good job James Gunn.

            • Starlord's the best. I mean he IS an idiot, but that's part of his charm. :-D Also, I'm betting someone or a couple of someone's die permanent in the next Avengers.

Again, I probably wouldn't be as sour on it as I am if this wasn't a giant case of blue balls for 3 hours.
                That was my main issue too, since they've announced so many sequels and contracts running out...but everyone I've talked to NOT on BDR has no fucking clue about any of those things and were all in shock at the end.

                • Caught this with Jen earlier today - in my opinion, this is the MCU's Empire Strikes Back. Every character got a chance to shine, the visuals are spectacular (there is some wonky CGI here and there, but on the whole it worked), the pacing was top notch - everything seemed to flow seamlessly. Also, like all y'all were saying, it didn't feel like 2.5 hours, and I was amazed when I checked my watch as we left. Hell of a ride, and I can't wait for the finale next year.

                  To run with what Rob was saying, of course things will be reset after Avengers 4: The Fouring. The MCU is a cash machine for Disney, and one of the tropes for superheroes in general is that nobody stays dead for long. Spider-Man turned to dust! Meh. Walk it off, Pete! Ya got a movie coming out next year, fool!

                  My guess is Cap, Thor and Iron Man will be hale and hearty at the end of the next flick, then those three characters will take a breather for Phase 4. Disney will then recast the characters, a la James Bond, and they'll show up when the Fox/Marvel properties fall into Disney's lap in time for Phase 5 or 6. Calling it now.

                  • I really loved it. Tim said it best.

                    It's even more impressive than the first Avengers. 10 years of movies smashed into one, and it works.

                      Finally checked this out. Ehhhhh. Most of this movie looked so fucking fake and green screeny that it was legit distracting. Klaue was awesome because Serkis is awesome

                      but as soon o as they killed him off I didn't give any shits any more


                      Wallace did pretty good as Killmonger but people that were championing this villain yet slamming other Marvel villains are nuts. Dude was no different than any other disposable villain. That last fight was so goddamn fake looking. Their whole budget was used on Lexus shit or something because those CGI body doubles looked like Matrix Reloaded shit.

                      The music was distracting as balls. Hearing trap music and orchestra fight each other during every goddamn scene was dumb.

                      Panther's Sister is the MVP of the movie (she's the fucking BEST) and same with the gorilla dude. The love interest shit was boring. Michonne was a certifiable badass. Just like Dr. Strange I don't need a whole movie with these characters.

                      I expected some next level shit with the amount of praise this movie was getting but I got a middle of the road Marvel flick. I see no reason to revisit this any time soon.

                      • The women were the MVPs of BLACK PANTHER. I don't get all of the heavy praise for it either...I'd put it squarely in the middle of the pack myself.

                        Personally, I suspect that the film will be re-evaluated in a decade and people will come to realize that it's 'OK' rather than life changing.

                        • The action scenes were pretty much a let down all around except for the casino scene. But then the CG still makes it look fake as fuck.

                            • It's not a bad movie, just not a great one. I get why it's championed, but it's not a great Marvel movie.

                              The tone is also all over the place.

                              • So, kinda like Wonder Woman? I mean, I liked it, but it's ain't even as good as the average Marvel movie.
