Maybe you should read the title and understand what the thread is before responding.

People here have said that its odd that its the original First Generation of Avengers who are left standing, whereas the New Generation were killed off when they still have upcoming movies slated.

I don't think its odd. Clearly in Avengers 4 it will be the responsibility of the First Gen Avengers to fix things and save the universe including the New Gen Avengers, so they can pass on the torch. Avengers 4 will be the Swan Song of the First Gen Avengers. Most of them will die, or be permanently retired, so the New Gen Avengers can flourish.

Whelp, thanks. I was looking forward to the film spoiler free.

The spoiler tag is right below the subject and if you highlight your text and hit spoiler, it will do the whole thing for you. Maybe use that in the future please?

Why the feth are you reading this thread then?

Because it is a thread involving the movie. Why the feth are you not using the Spoiler Tags to stop from Spoiling content? How do we have many many threads about television shows where people talk in spoiler tags to save people but as soon as this movie pops up people forget they exist and get upset when they get called out for making a mistake.



JUST LIKE THAT!

No I didn't. Its been a week since release already. Don't read internet discussion threads about a movie a week after release if you don't want to be spoiled.

Try exercising some god damn personal responsibility.

Hope they do make that official.

Hardly. I reject your assertion that I have a responsibility to avoid posting spoilers in a movie discussion thread a week after its been released. Thats what this thread is for, free and open discussion. If you don't want to be spoiled, don't read the thread until you've seen the movie.

Where do we draw the line? A week after release? Two weeks? A month? Dakka should have an official policy for spoilers, an official cut off point after which its permitted to post untagged Spoilers. Say 24 hours for TV, 2 weeks for a movie. When we have an official and consistent policy from the Mods, then I will respect spoilers.

Yeah, Hulk was just blatantly scared for all of the movie I think and that’s why Banner couldn’t change. I do like the number of people who had correctly predicted it was Banner in the Hulkbuster armor from the way it was moving in the trailers.

Considering that any grade schooler should know that a week is 7 days and it's only been 6 as of this morning your entire assertion that "it's been a week" falls apart from the get go.

Besides that point, I said this last page. Some will actually fight to not take the bare minimum effort to click a button 2 times and then blame everyone else for not going through the effort. Welcome to the internet. Where the disrespectful and inconsiderate will tell you it's your fault.

How about always use spoilers when discussing key plot points to movies in a thread because people look at those threads to judge people's reactions to movies or to find out what they need to watch/know before going in to it. That is why the spoilers tags are there. So you don't spoil things. We don't have a rule for it because the idea of a spoilers tag is pretty self explanatory. If we were good to just discuss key plot points in a thread, why would the spoiler tag even exist?

You can reject the notion all you want. It just makes it funnier to watch you try to understand this concept.

Once again, I DO understand the concept. I'm just rejecting it.

 Shadow Captain Edithae wrote:

So you are intentionally not using spoiler tags in order to ruin the movie for people?

Also, before the "I'm not ruining the movie, you are for reading this thread" you should understand this thread was made well before the movie so we could discuss the trailers. Not the movie itself. I have actively avoided all other discussion on many platforms so I didn't ruin the movie, also because all of those discussions used SPOILER TAGS to give fair warning.

No, I'm refusing to bend over backwards for people who insist on reading a discussion thread that they know will contain spoilers after the movie has been released.

Again, I will use Spoiler tags when the Mods institute a clear and consistent policy dictating how long after release we must use Spoiler tags. Until then, you're making a vague open ended demand. How long after release do we draw the line? One week? Two weeks? A month? Six months? How long must I use Spoiler tags for? There'll be people two or three months from now who still won't have seen the movie. Must we continue using spoiler tags in July or August?

I want clear instruction from the Mods, not a vague and open ended demand from other members of Dakka Dakka. Draw a line, and I will respect it.

Oh my gosh you have to bend over backwards to hit the spoiler button. My apologies, I was unaware you had to go through such a trial to click something. I'm not sure what kind of peripherals you are using but I would gladly send you some that would put less strain on you. I don't have much money but I can afford a mouse and keyboard for you.

We drew a line. The majority of the posters here agree. Why do you need a Mod to tell you what the majority of us have told you? Do you need mods to hold your hand that much?

Whatever. If you're going to start resorting to personal attacks, then we're done talking.

 Shadow Captain Edithae wrote:

Then you need to stop acting like you are going through some sort of trial to click a button twice. I just took your silly comment and expanded on it. See how silly it was?

What personal attack? You LITERALLY said it was bending over backwards for you to use spoiler tags.

You are the one making this simple act into such a hardship for you.

i think we'll end this tangent here thanks, and move back to discussing the movie and so forth.

Everyone dies at the end!

Thanos did nothing wrong.

Right when he thinks he’s won, Thanos sees a snake. He likes snakes so he goes to pet it and...

I don't know about that. According to my wife, killing Loki is the biggest mistake in the history of the MCU and it's all downhill from there.

Meh, we all know they're going to hit a reset button in the next film.

 Shadow Captain Edithae wrote:

Reset the "snap" deaths sure, but pre-snap deaths might stay dead.

OMG I have been keeping this buried for so many years and now have a chance to use it!

So I heard a rumor from a red shirt so take it with a grain of salt, please forgive me if this has already been posted, but when they go back in time to beat Thanos and undo everything, someone steps on a butterfly, modifying all of the future events. When they go back to present time, it turns out that the MCU rolls right into the movie Idiocracy, only with Marvel superheros. And they all have the tatoos too. Ta-Too?

Pretty amazing.

Gamora might get a new life due to her connection to the Soul Stone, and/or Vision with the Mind Stone, but everyone else is likely toast. Even Loki. His moment was too good, reversing it would ruin a lot of it.

I went in completely blind on Tuesday and avoided everything, including this thread, because I wanted to know nothing. I watched trailers because I know they deliberately mislead so they were just neat avengers tasters.

All that said it was totally worth it. The movie started out hot and just kept rolling. I think Loki is done. I think Gamora and Vision are coming back. I think we'll see Cap go down permanently in the second part and Iron Man will essentially retire (killing him is hard since doesn't he have the AIM thing to now?). They'll use RDJ from time to time like they used to use Samuel L Jackson to hold the MCU continuity together.

I simply loved that they basically made the villain the "hero" on the quest like someone said earlier. It was a fantastic twist to make Thanos an actual scary villain. We've now had 2 actual villains worth a snot in the MCU and one killed the other

I'd put Ego from GotG2 in there, too. A being who decided to eliminate all life in the universe not for any grand goal, or to claim power or anything like that. No, he did it just because he was so disappointed with it and for that reason it had to be extinguished.

He wasnt extinguishing it per say, just replacing it with better life, namely himself.

Also I’d rate Killgore as a pretty good villain.

Reported so maybe they can help clarify it for you.

I could see Thor getting a few near death trips to Valhalla that let Loki cameo. I do think its best if they don't do the Norse rebirth stuff the comics keep falling back on and keep the Asgardians that have died, dead.

It has been noted that the actor who plays Loki is currently signed for one more film.

This makes it unlikely he's perma dead.
