So, to @Brian G., I assume the gates can be opened for spoilers without the spoiler tab (considering we are now at the 2 week mark)?
Yes.

Not everybody with a job goes in the first two weeks. But the spoiler thing is kinda funny. If you haven't seen and don't want to "spoil" why look? Unless you just can't help yourself:bonk:
Yes.
One of the first things I said to my friends when I walked out opening night was "That could've easily gone on for 30 more minutes and I wouldn't have cared at all". It's truly the type of film where you don't feel how long it actually is while you're watching it because you're on the edge of your seat the whole damn time. Not only that, but the mix of comedy and how much of a badass Thanos is worked well too imo.I wish the film was actually extended to about the 3 hour mark...
The Russos said in an interview that, in an early draft, Falcon went to Titan with Tony and Strange instead of Parker. It would have been fascinating post Civil War...
Finally got to watch it last night and am conflicted. It's a good movie. No doubt. I have issue with them treating this like a standalone movie. It's not. It is absolutely IW part one. If they left the P1 in the title, I would have loved the ending. I just can't shut off the knowledge I had going in to the movie that BP, DS, Spidey, and GotG have other movies coming out, so the second BP died, I had an eye roll moment. We absolutely know that they are going to roll time back and fix all, or at least most, of this. That takes most of the effect of the deaths away. If I ignore their choice to treat it like a standalone, I love that the originals are pretty much all that's left, and have to save the day. I know that's essential to the story, but if they could have kept the ones with movies still in the works alive and killed off a couple of the originals, it would have had a more "holy poop" effect and left you wondering if they were really going to fix it later.

I mean, yeah. Most of what you said is true to the point of if those characters did those things, the end result would have been different. But... it's a movie. And Doctor Strange killing the time stone in the first 30 minutes pretty much ends the mystery of who wins there since Thanos needed all 6.Went to go see it a third time, and this time I came back with a whole different take...essentially our "heroes" lack to make sacrifices caused the destruction of the world. To the point can we even call some of them heroes due to their selfish actions leading to the destruction of the world? The only three critically thinking smart people in the film were Captain America, Thor, and Thanos.
It can be narrowed down to three key people who caused all this. The first being Dr Strange who immediately upon finding out about Thanos should've looked at scenarios where he would win rather than waiting until they get to Thanos's home planet and if he destroyed the Infinity Stone when Iron Man told him too, most of this crap wouldn't have gone down.
Two, if Scarlet Witch being selfish despite knowing the fate of the world was in effect waited to the last frickin minute to destroy the mind stone when she should've done it much earlier. I get the "we don't trade lives thing" but at the same fricking time....Vision was willing to sacrifice himself to save the world and you made his death pointless because Thanos had the time stone so bravo to you.
Three, Starlord did the same thing. Gamora said take her out and was a willing sacrifice and he waited to freaking long to do anything then caused her to die anyway and then got mad and totally ruined the plan and then at the end had the audicity to yell we didn't win. No crap Starlord. Thanks to you being a selfish egotistic emotional trainwreck you didn't win.
I even somewhat blame Loki who is the trickster god for not tricking Thanos into taking a fake tessaract while destroying the space stone but I digress as he was in a much tougher spot at the moment.
Without those four stones, Thor actually had a real chance to defeating Thanos and entire half of the world civilization they spent the entire movie trying to protect would've been okay.
Lastly, you would've thought since Wakanda is so in tune with animals and nature they would've also adapted techniques from the African Meerkats and thought to put defenses and shields underground so the enemy couldn't just dig away.
Avengers: Infinity War is getting an extended Thanos cut with an extra 30 minutes of footage | GamesRadar+
This hasn’t been confirmed by Marvel yet but honestly I would be down for this. This is one of the few movies that I thought to myself “I wish this was longer” haha.
Also, the title for Avengers 4 has leaked (so it seems at least). The Cinematographer for both films accidentally added it to his resume on his website. Within a few hours it was taken down and changed back to just “Avengers 4”. I’ll put the leak in a spoiler tag just in case.
Avengers: Endgame
The title I think has actually been debunked by the Russo Brothers themselves previously, but I could be wrong
That said, I can see why a Thanos Cut would be done, because I wouldn't of minded the longer runtime.
The Russo bros have also said that the IW deaths are permanent but we all know a good chunk of those people are definitely coming back haha.
