why. WHY would he just give him the stone? It makes no sense, even if it ends up some kind of trap in the next movie, still no reason to do it.

Also, I don't think I've cared less about a character than Wanda.

Because it was part of the one future scenario in which they actually win?

Wasnt that obvious?

Why not just de-age Thanos into a baby or stick him in a time loop?

Like, goddamn why go through a lot of pain and misery instead of nipping the problem in the bud?

Because no one would have been happy with that outcome? Would you have honestly been happy with that outcome?

You are not accepting the real response, which is that Strange saw 14 million ways that they lose. So every time a GameFAQs user says "why didn't they do this??", it's because it probably would have failed somehow. We don't need to see every single outcome and HOW it would fail, it's explained to us in the dialogue when Strange saw several million outcomes and all but one were them losing.

But yes, it's a fucking movie. It's made to create conflict and it is planned a specific way to tell a specific store, this one to create a cliffhanger where the heroes lose and it has to be resolved in the sequel. This is not difficult to grasp

And the third act "deaths" are already ruined because you know they'll be back next movie.

It's only ruined if you are set on being hung up on things like that rather than just letting yourself be entertained.

I feel like your comments contradict themselves. Why are you so bent on rooting for disney? "Yay my corporation can do no wrong!" That's you.

I'm not bent on rooting for Disney specifically. I just notice when people try to pick apart at things that are pointless to pick at. Some of which are things that were explained in the movie, and some of which are things that are nitpicky. Someone saying the character deaths are ruined for them because other movies with them are announced, is basically saying that the filmmakers shouldn't have any freedom to do things like that because people are going to know they'll be back. Personally, I know they'll be back and I can still enjoy it because I choose not to hung up on things happening outside of the actual film (like films being announced, etc). I can enjoy it without being nitpicky.

The term 'nitpicking' is now worthless currency on the internet - you will never be able to convince some people that their petty fault-seeking isn't deeply significant and experience-ruining.

So they decided to make it go one way with a throwaway line by Strange? I don't see why the conflict couldn't have been resolved smartly.

If you have to make your character do dumb things to advance the plot, then that means the plot is poorly written.

The first Avengers film had little to no problems like this.

Fair enough. I'm mainly arguing that the nitpick is with having a problem with the movies being announced relative to characters dying. But I've also argued in other topics that it's silly to think that if the movies had not been announced, that it would be reasonable to think that these heroes would stay dead, knowing what we know about Hollywood and how Marvel wants to make money with films like Spider-man, Black Panther, etc. even if they aren't announced. And also going by what happens in the Infinity Gauntlet comic that this is based off of.

But I recognize that we don't all think alike, have different waves of thinking, not everyone has read the comic, and agree to disagree. And I recognize that while I personally am not finding myself not enjoying the end of the movie because the future movies are announced, it's unfortunate for those who's enjoyment is lessened because of it.

Because the Time Stone has shown not to work like that? Remember in Dr. Strange when the Time Stone rewound the world but all the magic guys just powered through it?

It only worked on Dormammu because he was timeless and thus didn't know how to handle time/know what time was supposedly.

Cause that doesn't follow the narrative TC and company have in their head.

Because that might have been one of the millions of scenarios that ended with them ultimately failing.
