Wow, just wow. Avengers, dang.
Jun. 13th, 2019 06:18 amNo spoilers in this post, though I'm likely to do one a bit later, but this is just my initial thoughts having only just watched End Game last night. Holy cow that was a ride. Yeah, three hours, but necessary, and none of it dragged or felt extraneous. Also, like half of Hollywood was in the dang thing for various cameos. I just kept wondering how much that set the studio back. Not that it would matter. This thing is solid gold. Though I am left with a few questions, overall the whole thing was a hell of a ride, and really wrapped everything up nicely. I cried twice during, and my buddy once. The whole thing was a beautiful homage to the entire series of movies while really bringing the catharsis. I'm super happy and grateful to have such a long-running thing end well. I have to say too, that whoever was in control of the overall movies did an excellent job of keeping everything going in the right direction. Even the lamest of the films aren't terrible, and they managed to toe that thin line between drama and comedy without ever falling too far one way or t'other.
Oh, and I'm rather glad Captain Marvel has minimal screen time. I'm not certain if they meant to play her this way, or it's just the actress, but she comes across as a condescending dick. I said to my buddy when she showed up at one point that she's basically Superman, if he were a dick. I'm definitely not likely to watch her movie, now more than ever.
Anyway, great movie.
