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.

AoS= Agent of Shield?

OH and y'all are all forgetting Marvel's Runaways (exclusively on Hulu), which I thought was absolutely hilarious and I can't wait for the next season.

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.

By far. While yes sometimes those DC tv shows feel like teenage soap operas they're still far and away way better than the Marvel Netflix shows which try to be edgy and dark but come off as boring and lame.

it's almost as if DC movies = Marvel Netflix tv with how similar they try to be.

I think Hulk was afraid of Thanos because he practically destroyed him in the first scene and Hulk didn't want any more of that.
I think Hulk may not be coming out because he is hurt and needs time to heal. We never saw Hulk actually move or anything after the fight. My theory any way.

Interesting alternate theory. But his cries of “NO” sounded fearful, not hurt.

My thought is Hulk doesn't get hurt so being hurt is fearful for him. If he is hurt then changing wouldn't do Bruce any good and could make matters worse.

Its crazy how puny Hulk is in the MCU at the moment. You had Dr Strange fighting Thanos when he had like 4 infinity stones and Thanos straight up owned Hulk without using any stones or any backup. (I guess maybe the Power Gem by itself could make Hulk obsolete)

We're obviously being set up for some sort of evolution of Hulk's character because right now he is pretty worthless.

Watched it today. Pretty good. Hulk, Dr Strange and Thor were the most interesting story lines going forward for me.

All, right, no more spoiler tags. It's been two weekends, and at this point, if you still haven't watched the movie, you shouldn't be in this thread.

Let's start off with a preview for Guardians of the Galaxy 3:
