lots of stuff from the trailers never made it to the movie.

TopicWas Infinity War the greatest comic book movie?
AsucaHayashi

too many problems with the movie for it to be considered (close to)goat.

they really should have stuck with the two-parter direction instead of turning it around and calling them two separate movies.
the movie sweeps from country to country and one end of the universe to the other with very little narrative coherence.

eg. a very obvious one happens before the movie even starts with thanos already having a stone or the only reason why gotg meets stark and co. on titan is because nebula escapes and sends a message to mantis in like a 2 minute sequence. i mean come on.

i understand they wanted to end it with a big impact but to actually give some meat to the movie they should either have extended the total running time and give characters/certain events their due, or leave out entire sections for the 2nd movie(say thor's whole arc.).

i think the idea is that strange's actions are now set in stone meaning thanos can only derive the possible futures from that point onwards and one of them is where he inevitably loses(or whatever "the only way" is supposed to mean).

heh... i don't know how stores are run "over there" but here they easily signify the "closing period" by:

-lowering the shutters halfway down
-asking persistent customers who apparently think the half closed shutters is considered an invitation, not to enter but usually let them after making it clear they have to hurry
-telling remaining customers that they have to finish in x amount of time
-if it's a food place they pretty much prevent people from entering except for selling leftover items that don't require preparation.

your companies need some more balls tbh and admit the fact that customers are not always right.

so the movie is hype but can someone provide non-spoiler flaws of the movie that critics apparently noticed since it's currently rated lower than many of the other MCU movies according to metacritic?

though it's still on par with the original avengers which i think is easily one of the most rewatchable movies in the MCU.

it has the sad privilege of being the most forgettable among their best movies.

a flaw i see is that we never really care for the real characters(at least i don't) making the divide between inside and out too big to really have the impact the makers were hoping for when the resolution comes around.

Bethesda made Nes and PS1 games long before Xbox.
Bioware had console ported MDK2 long before their first Xbox game.
Epic games had already released console ports of UT.


ok?

blizzard had the lost vikings and diablo 1/warcraft 2 on console, valve ported HL to ps2 etc. etc.

that doesn't really make them any less PC devs though and didn't really say any of the devs were "first time console devs" either.

PC probably.

every platform had their niches, then the xbox came along and MS focused on developing games for console as well as bringing more and more PC developers into the mix like bethesda/bungie/epic/bioware.

the combination of a proper(paid) online console service along with one of the biggest PC genres culminated into the dudebro era of gaming with the 360.

like when you're browsing names/numbers and mistakenly press the phone/video icon.
even if it's a single split second and you cancel/close it the call still registers on the receiver's end.

-hey why'd you call

-oh i pressed by mistake

-oh ok

"crickets"

annoying af.

isn't there at least a way to confirm you want to make the call or have it delayed a bit?
this is usually a problem with apps though since regular calls need to properly connect first.

unless something big happens at the end it's pretty obvious this is only half the story of IW.

all trailers that show them in different parts of the universe and story segments have thanos with 2 stones and potentially 3rd in wakanda(who are we kidding... of course he'll have 3 when it's over).

it would be pretty anti-climatic if he ends up zipping across the rest of the universe and collect the remaining stones in an instant and then be defeated by the avengers by the time the movie ends.

the fact that they could get jurassic world up and running fine for years showed that without that dirty insider element, everything ran smoothly enough to eventually open fully to the public.

it was human error that set the whole thing in motion and incidentally it was also human error that led to the events in JW... hishe explains it in a nice little clip.
