I'm binging rewatching scenes on Youtube. It's such a cool finale and experience. I borderline love it; it has some clear flaws but also it's like, how else could it have been done? So many cool scenes.

No time travel .
Make Hulk not suck. Only Josh Whedon made a good Hulk
No fat Thor

We should have gotten that Hulk vs Thanos rematch

Also, apparently there was supposed to be a moment in Endgame where Hulk strikes Black Panthers suit, and BP uses the absorbed force of the strike to destroy one of Thanos's ships

Would have been cool. There should have been more team up moments

God, that suit was so dumb. They nailed the look and abilities in Civil War. I don't why they thought they needed to give him an autowin button moving forward.

I have few complaints, the Russos executed as well as could be expected.
Part of me would've liked a Sherlock nod between Strange and Stark in their banter, but I'll admit it's low hanging fruit.

-Let Hulk have better showings
-Either give hero focus in Infinity War or more emotional focus on Thanos

How was it auto win, if he died in the suit
The TV teams should have been in the scene where all the portals open.
I apologize for nothing!

I do hate how Hulk became this weird comic relief as the series went on. Hulk in Avengers 1 was the best. Everyone on screen and in the audience had actual tension on when/if Bruce would Hulk out, which is what makes his character emotionally interesting.

Yeah. It felt like every other major hero got their angle on Thanos, but Hulk gets punched once and he's irrelevant for the rest of the time.

Infinity War is a perfect movie. Amd honestly it should have just ended there. Perfect ending.

One of the best movie theater experiences was watching the ending unfold.

Fantastic movies, the only thing I wish they would have done differently was the gauntlet.

I wish they would have kept the original one Thanos used rather than the iron man glove when they were making their second one.
One thing I would've changed in Endgame is to have Bucky save Tony instead of Peter so they could reconcile .

The time travel and final battle portions of endgame are such a snore and really bring down the movie

Could have worked if they had Strange say something obvious and Stark replies with "No shit, Sherlock", and then the same exchange happens in reverse either later in the movie or in Endgame

I can see the line working since both of them had really sarcastic personalities to begin with
Hulk's conclusion was horrible, especially being offscreen. If anyone was going to get a solo movie in-between, it should have been him.
Captain Marvel was pointless. Should have saved her for the next phase and integrated her in with the new characters.
The final battle of Endgame was a bit too messy at times.
Probably some other minor nitpicks, but those are what pop out the most. Overall, they were still very good and a good "ending" to the franchise.
The time travel was stupid especially since it was one of the first things people guessed was going to happen after Infinity War
See profile pic
Love both movies, but Id probably give the edge to Endgame.

It was a little weird how arbitrary the armies that appeared were. We got Wakandans, Sorcerers, Asgardians, and Ravagers, but nobody else wanted to show up and help fight the guy who took out half the universe. And it's not like this was some grand plan they had set up in advance, it was literally a spur-of-the-moment gathering of forces because they didn't even know there was going to be a war to fight at all after the second snap.

At the very least, I feel like armies from at least one more of Earth's major nations would have wanted to fight. The US army rallying behind Captain America again would have been a cool shot.
The only flaw with those movies is the pathetic regression of the HULK. At least another good showing in end game would of been nice.

I didn't go with the time travel angle after Infinity War, at least not in the way they used it. My running theory was that Strange gave up the Time Stone so easily because he had magically tampered with it in some way, and the victims of the Snap weren't actually erased, but instead either scattered through time or pushed into an alternate timeline (possibly the "one timeline" where they won), and would be retrieved once the heroes gathered the stones for themselves.
Still have no idea why people complain so much about hulk. He literally got complete control over himself. He completed his life goal. It's the most character progression he got the whole franchise.

That's as good as it's ever going to get. I dropped off completely after Endgame.
It is impossible to live in the past, difficult to live in the present, and a waste to live in the future.

Infinity War was perfect.

Endgame went on and on for what was the most boring and obvious "good ending".
Hated how Thor and Hulk were portrayed.

Because people enjoy him for his unbridled rage and aggression, we want to see him go apeshit. The closest I will ever except for hulks happiness is settling down on a barbarian planet where he still gets to be in his element.

I think most agree with this. I still watch but yea it peaked with Endgame.
Have Daredevil show up along with the rest of The Defenders.

And? We know what he wanted to do, we know the final result. Do we need to see him sitting in his lab pouring shit into vials? There was a lot of ground to cover in that movie and seeing Bruce fix himself wasn't important to the drive of the narrative. These movies pack so much stuff into their runtime. They should be praised for their efficiency.

It would be one thing if he actually had his own movies that didn't show his story arc but, because of the goofy deal they have with Universal, he's always going to be second banana to everyone else and his story is just gonna have to fit into the cracks of other movies.

"complex"
More like unearned slop they wanted to feed us.
Hulk has always been very neglected. Like "here guys hes better now lol."

I wanted Thanos to not be a replacement Thanos but the same Thanos...I wanted Adam Warlock, I wanted Thanos not to lose because they changed the rules of the Gauntlet just so Stark gets to be the star and a few more things...like Hulk not becoming Shriek.
tbh, I didn't like Infinity War overall.

I don't like when the antagonist saunters in and makes their villain speeches, so I definitely wasn't feeling it when IW was full of that

the stuff with the Soul Stone was also a weak, arbitrary way to "humanize" Thanos.

Endgame was a little goofy (Tony figuring out time travel in a day was the dumbest thing ever), but it was a fun movie, at least, IMO, and I enjoyed it a lot more.

That will likely happen in her third movie, the X-Man Rogue got her powers by absorbing Carol Danver's powers.

Infinity War
Didn't like:
- Spider-Man, a hero with literal super strength, being unable to take off Thanos's gauntlet just to produce narrative tension
- Drax's 'I'm invisible' meme
Liked:
- Everything else

Endgame
Didn't like:
- Timeskip was dumb and wasn't handled well in the film or in any subsequent MCU media
- Trying to shoehorn Captain Marvel in by destroying a warship and then struggling, just everything about it was bad
- Thanos kind of just became a generic bad guy, with a rewrite of his comic origin/motivations and without his IF characterization, was just kind of flat
- Dr. Strange being relegated to just holding up a waterfall (?) for narrative tension
Liked:
- All the actual time travel was good, liked seeing Ancient One again and Tony with his dad
- The three vs Thanos
- Funeral was very emotional

I've never quite understood this complaint tbh. Scott had already done the hard part by accident, Tony just figured out how to control it.

Don't get these either, Thanos went toe-to-toe with Hulk, he should be able to threaten Spider-Man and Captain Marvel. And he had to use the Power Stone to punch her in the face to actually beat Marvel.

Infinity War is god-tier, and apart from mishandling the Hulk in the second half, it was nearly perfect.

Endgame was... fine. For a time travel story. It had some strong scenes, and the final act was suitably epic... but killing off Thanos and erasing all his amazing development from the first movie was... certainly a choice.

I write Naruto Fanfiction. But I am definitely not a furry.
Both were great imo. Infinity war was better, but Endgame was a solid pay-out for the build up to that point, and imo a good spot to end the MCU on.

I hated Thanos in Endgame.

In Infinity War he was constantly pushing the plot forward, and was the reason why the Avengers had to do things, like Thor traveling to Nidavallir to obtain Stormbreaker.

In the first 5 minutes of the movie, Thanos is portrayed as an absolute threat, beating down the Hulk without even using the stones. Now I am not gonna go wether he COULD beat Hulk, but for the purposes of his character reveal it works, he is immediatly established as a force to be reckoned with.

Yet in Endgame he just sits back and doesn't do fuck all, literally waiting for the stones to fall into his lap, rather than pursue them. Isn't this basically his life long obsession?

I liked that Ant-Man was one of the MVPs in Endgame.
Shplendid!
I probably couldnt contribute anything to improve it. It really was a great conclusion to the 20 movie buildup.
Trying is the first step towards failure, so just dont give it a shot and you cant dissapoint.

I feel like it would feel a little too political for the moment (even if his name is Captain America). Maybe a flashback to his old platoon or something

The original plan for Professor Hulk was so much better, and they even filmed it then didn't use it.

When Bruce is fighting the big guy in the Hulkbuster suit and is arguing with Hulk, instead of him saying "alright you big green asshole I'll do it myself" they come to an agreement on working together and he transforms into the Hulk and bursts out of the suit and wins the fight. Then later on, Black Widow comes across him in the woods and tries her calming thing on him but he just talks to her in Bruce's voice, showing they're not separate entities anymore but working as one.

Would've been a hell of a lot cooler than just "oh yeah he figured out how to be both Hulk and Bruce now and it just happened off screen"

Because this version of Thanos already knows that he wins in the future and just has to do it again. He's much younger than the other Thanos and doesn't view the Avengers as a threat. Old Thanos barely did and he knew all about them.

Wouldn't say I disliked it but the "girl power" moment during the final fight was just super cheesy. Couldn't have been more forced.
Not enough Danvers

What? The Endgame Thanos is just doing the same thing the original one did. The entire franchise up to that point was Thanos sitting back, waiting for other people to bring him the Stones.

Thanos was the main character of Infinity War, so he did more in it.

He was just the bad guy in Endgame.

One could argue he was waiting for the oppertune moment. We know he killed Ronan for the Power Stone, he took the Space Stone from Loke. Went to Knowhere to get the Reality Stone. Then took Gamora to Vormir for the Soul Stone. Fought Tony, Strange, the Guardians and Spiderman over Time Stone. And finally killed Vision for the Mind Stone.

In Endgame he sat on his ass waiting for either of his daughters to bring him the gauntlet.
