Just got back from the 10 pm showing. I think I now have a favorite Marvel movie. I'm sure I missed a lot so I definitely want to go back and see if I can catch some more things. Although, I wish that they reversed the release dates for this and for the Ant Man and Wasp
since this takes place afterwards it looks like.

I am guessing the Antman and Wasp will take place between New York and Wakanda.

We already know Captain Marvel takes place in the 90s.

Marvel does the improbable yet again and makes it look easy. What a contrast between this and the Justice League.

Infinity War blew Justice League out of the water. DC definitely needs better structure with their universe.

Marvel absolutely kills it in movies compared to DC, however I think DC has the television game on lockdown and blows Marvel out of the water when it comes to tv.

i'm a bit of a gamer and play DC Universe Online...

Marvel also had an online MMO and it sucked in a major way...

Thats a ton of shit I haven't watched.

You missed the other Netflix ones unless you're lumping them into Defenders.

I had all of them individually, but they all flow together, so I merged them instead.

Daredevil is worthy of its own mention. I think I like that one more than the combined Defenders because Iron Fist annoys the hell out of me.

So with a new season of Luke Cage coming out in the next month or so, how can they not have the entire show dealing with the events of this movie?

And same with SHIELD. They dropped a quick “have you seen the news? What is happening in New York?”, so maybe the rest of the season takes place between New York and Wakanda?

Don't forget, the Infinity War release date was originally tomorrow, May 3rd, not April 27th. Of course AoS won't have much in last Friday's episode!

Also, if y'all "didn't care" for AoS, you probably watched, what, half of season 1? It's improved EXPONENTIALLY and the past couple seasons are some of the best tv I've seen in the past two years. Seasons 1-4 are on Netflix, and most of S5 is still on Hulu (I think there's two or three episodes left to air?) although S5 is a pretty detail-heavy one and missing episodes is a poor idea.

Now, I've never read the comic books, nor do I intend to, but I've watched all the movies, and although I think IW was a good movie, I definitely walked out feeling stunned. And when one of my friends posted, "Raise your hand if you feel personally victimized by Thanos" on facebook, it got a thumbs up from me.

Yeah, we know a lot of deaths (all the snap deaths?) will be reversed...but I don't have a problem with that, because we KNEW this was a Part 1 of 2 movie.

I wasn't upset by Quill's behavior either because it fits his pattern PERFECTLY. He did to Thanos exactly what he did to his father. Quill has the world's most serious abandonment issues, and you couple that with the guilt he must be feeling about not killing Gamora the second she asked him to, causing Thanos to capture her safely and then kill her to get the Soul Stone and destroy the universe? Yep, I 100% see him hauling off and punching Thanos despite the fact that it's stupid AF.

What really gut-punched me was Peter Parker's Spidey senses telling him he was about to die so that his death felt a lot more drawn out than the others, who had no idea what was happening. Tom Holland fucking nailed "scared kid reaching out to dad" in that last scene.

That, and Wanda's expression of relief as she dissolved, just having just killed her lover, have Thanos revive him in front of her, and then kill him again, brutally. That hurt.

You are correct, I stopped watching AoS about halfway through Season 1. It was not good. Maybe I'll pick it up again and see if it improved.

Agreed, with that and the animated movies that they do as well.

You really, really should. It's also important to watch all of season 1 before moving forward to season 2 because there's SO many "loose ends" that are being tied up in this season (they thought they were being canceled, although it's looking like we're getting the green light for one more season just now) and a lot of them have roots in season 1.

You think Flash, Super Girl, Arrow, etc are better then Dare Devil, Punisher, Jessica Jones, etc? I think Marvel blows those out of the water to.
