DH woke me up at midnight last night to say he'd just realised Valkyrie and Mick etc must be dead. I wasn't thrilled.

I'm a little confused about the asgardians. Thanos only wanted to kill half of everyone and I'm sure Thor said that half of his people were dead but where the heck did the others go?

heateallthebuns · 30/04/2018 16:07

I've seen it twice!!! I didn't know there was a spoiler thread I'm so happy!!!

I LOVE Captain America's beard!
I think he looks waaaay better with it.
But I have a thing for beards. Though not magicians beards like Dr Strange or Iron Man. I have standards!

I'm now reading lots of avengers fanfic - it's the only way to get through the next year until the next film!

heateallthebuns · 30/04/2018 16:22

Someone who'd read the comment cos said the film stuck pretty close to the story, so they can guess what will happen in the next movie. Can they come back and tell us please?

I think it might be :
parallel universes where the old avengers look like in their earlier movies, coz of the leaked set photos,
or time travel with the time stone,
or the dusted ones are in the soul stone which is a different dimension.

Any of the dead ones could come back really, not just dusted. Especially Gamora coz of gotg 3 and the soul stone.

Cap is way more handsome with the beard btw.

SouthWestmom · 30/04/2018 16:29

Yes I want to know too.

I think Cap's floppy hair's helping him out too

DamnDeDoubtanceIsSpartacus · 30/04/2018 16:33

...another vote for the beard, waaaaaay better.

SouthWestmom · 30/04/2018 16:33

I need to see it again I think

Sorry my post made no sense, I meant to say someone who had read the comics.

heateallthebuns · 30/04/2018 16:38

Yeah and he's not such a goody two shoes anymore either. Plus I could never get the image of him at the beginning of captain America when he's all weedy out of my head, but with the beard that doesn't happen because he looks different.

OlennasWimple · 30/04/2018 16:41

We know that Thanos can turn back time with the gauntlet, so I figure that someone will turn back time and all the ash people will come back to life

Not sure how, but reckon Loki isn't really gone

Love, love, love Thor, Groot and Banner

Can't stand Cumberbatch's accent and I wish Gwyneth would either be in the film properly or not at all.

billyt · 30/04/2018 17:26

Saw it last night and thoroughly blown away. Brilliant and no end to the excitement.

It's a long end crawl through the people 'back of scenes'!!!! Must be thousands, no wonder these films cost mega-mega bucks

Next/last Avengers joint film out next May. Already started filming.

Going to watch Thor Ragnarok again tonight.

According to dd, the film took a different turn to the comics.
Comics spoilers from dd:

She said in the infinity gauntlet - Thanos already had the stones and destroyed half the planet to show his love for mistress death? She says that Nebula is his granddaughter in the comics and waits until Thanos is in spirit form and then takes the gauntlet from him and is restored back to her normal self. Dd says nebula is still a baddie in the comics and she goes a bit power crazy - so apparently dr strange gets Adam Warlok (he’s not in Marvel cinema - not sure if he will be or not) to rescue thanos from the spirit realm and get him to help trick nebula turn the time back 24 hours, which puts nebula back to her weird robot self and undoes all of the deaths caused by thanos.
Warlock goes into the spirit realm using the spirit stone and manages to get the gauntlet to hurt nebula, so he can take it off her. He splits the stones up giving them to different people to protect them.

Dd was surprised Dr Strange was one of the ones turned to dust in the film, given how much he plays in the comics. She thinks he saved iron man deliberately, so that iron man can take over his role.
She’s not sure if captain marvel will be a big role instead of Adam Warlock, or if warlock will even become part of marvel cinema.
She thinks nebula will still be the big link and they will go down the spirit world route because that’s where thanos was at the end of the film, speaking to a little Gamora. I wonder if they will reach out to thanos’ humanity side which was shown in infinity war.

This kid gives me a headache - but it makes sense!

Thunderwing · 30/04/2018 18:33

Adam Warlock was teased during the end credits of GOTG2 so it's possible we may see him before IW2 Smile

Whereismumhiding2 · 30/04/2018 18:50

You are my people. I'm loving these potential stories 😁

jammiebammie · 30/04/2018 19:10

Ah I forgot about that @thunderwing - wonder if he’ll appear in captain marvel before avengers 4 is out?

MsGameandWatching · 30/04/2018 19:40

Saw it this morning, cried my eyes out. Have felt a bit depressed all day tbh. I know some will come back but it won't be for ages Sad. When Loki looked at Thor and said "I am son of Odin" and when TS held SM as he went...can't bear it. Ds was so sad too, he could barely speak as we came out. I didn't realise how invested I was in the characters.

NeverTalksToStrangers · 30/04/2018 20:10

Msgame
I'm definitely much more invested than I expected I ever could be. I think it's because the movies are just getting better and better (I LOVED civil war, that was the jaw drop moment for me), but also they are getting funnier, with some genuinely lovely/complex/hilarious characters.

In contrast, have little to no interest in dc.

It's mad to think iron man wasn't even that BIG a character before 2008.

MsAdorabelleDearheartVonLipwig · 30/04/2018 20:21

I think I’ve seen Ragnarok at least once a week since we bought it for dd2 for easter. Is such s great film. Am going to be in bits watching IW.

DamnDeDoubtanceIsSpartacus · 30/04/2018 20:21

jammie, ask the kid about Loki, is he still alive in the comics?

SouthWestmom · 30/04/2018 20:31

. He is also slated to reprise his role in an upcoming Untitled Avengers film (2019).

Loki, WiKi

Hooray!

This is my favourite thread on mn just now Grin

RowenaDedalus · 30/04/2018 20:36

I loved the film so much I was totally devastated by the ending. Had a brief weep

Lokisglowstickofdestiny · 30/04/2018 20:45

Having had a bit more of a ponder I'm not sure Loki is dead. He isn't Asgardian - his normal form is Jotun, so when he dies I would expect his illusory body to revert but it didn't. I also think some of the Asgardians made it off the ship before Thanos blew it up so hope for Valkyrie. Thor told the "rabbit" that he lost half his people.
Loved Cap with the beard he is more Nomad now - and maybe that's how it goes in the next Avengers film assuming CE signs another contract and they don't kill him off.
Can't stand Gwyneth Paltrow either after the steaming cleaning of the fanjo debacle, she wasn't as irritating in the earlier films like IM1.

DamnDeDoubtanceIsSpartacus · 30/04/2018 20:46

Yes! Get, In!!! C'mon, Loki is the coolest.
