Nosaj Thing Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 I will leave my review later but for a dead technology, 3D is very strong in this movie. I couldn't pre-order tickets for Infinity War unless I choose 3D so went ahead with that, and although I was a bit uncomfortable, I truly enjoyed it in 3D. One of the best experiences I have had. Movie left me very mixed feelings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I called quite a bit that happened in the film (because of the comics), I was truly shocked and surprised at other moments. The film retains the spirit of the comics, all while telling it's own story. It's quite an amazing accomplishment imo. I don't want to spoil anything, but if you have read the comics you will see certain things coming. But you will also be genuinely surprised at other moments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a button, not sure which one since I’m on mobile, but you can also do [ spoiler ] spoiler and then [ /spoiler ]. Without the spaces of course.

AxlRoseCDII Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I thought the movie was good, can't say that it was my favorite Marvel film though. Thought everyone got decent screentime. Only major complaint from me was that the Hulk was barely in it, which kills me inside. Thanos was an amazing villian who's story actually moved me. Thought they did a great job integrating the universes together and captured each of the respective series' style and/or humour well. Spoiler I agree with @downzy that knowing that there will be more sequels for the "dead" characters killed the moment. Plus, there is no logistically real way that Marvel would've killed off every one of those characters. We know there will be a new Spiderman, Guardians 3, very sure there will be another Black Panther. However most casual fans don't know this and as such I do respect Marvel for shocking a majority of it's audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChineseDemocracy2004 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I want to see this film again and again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downzy Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Josh Brolin did a great job with Thanos, but maybe it was just me but the whole time Thanos on screen I kept having to remind myself that he wasn't played by Ron Perlman: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have a point, but I probably wasn't even paying attention to the score due to all the visual suck. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classicrawker Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Saw it in 3D with my daughters this past weekend and thought it was very entertaining. I am not a super hero fan so have no idea who most of the super heroes in this flick were but love the Guardians of the Galaxy movies so that made me enjoy it more........

It’s the size of the head. Pearl man has a yuuuge dome. Maybe the biggest in the biz. Interestingly enough I can remember seeing the first Hellboy and thinking that they sure made Pearlman look like Ted Danson.

Nosaj Thing Posted May 3, 2018 Author Share Posted May 3, 2018 They nailed Thanos' voice with Josh Brolin. Atmos speakers kept bouncing up and down whenever he spoke. Really loved this movie. Will go watch it for the fourth time this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknroll41 Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 (edited) Saw it last night. Very good villain. Bold ending. Acting was great all around. Top 5 hero characters for me would have to be Scarlet Witch, Spiderman, Thor, Rocket, and Gamora. With that being said, while I liked Thor in this one, I felt the movie itself coulda treated the events of Ragnarok with a little more "respect," if you get what I mean. also, one character that I highly, highly disliked was Starlord/ Peter Quil. Something about him felt very, very off in this one. i liked how the story was structured/edited like a comic book (and not in a cheesy way like the 2003 Hulk or Batman v Superman). The cost there however is that it's flat-out impossible to be able to follow along with this movie without having seen most of the other 18 films in this universe. also, I feel like some of the events/motives could've used a little more justification. so overall: decent movie. Not bad, not great, but different (and mostly in a good way). I give it like a 3.75/5, and rank it currently at #9 out of all 19 MCU films.
