| Yes Hulk won't come out to play because Thanos kicked his ass. If Scarlett Witch can destroy Infiniti stones then why not try to destroy the ones on the gauntlet? I thought it was good, lots of action. We all know they won't stay dead, but it was still cool to see them fail.

The crew known as Thanos' Children are supposed to be murderous interplanetary ass-kickers. Ebony Maw is killed by simply getting sucked into the vacuum of space? The scene in the Edinburgh train station, Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive should've been able to kill Black Widow, Falcon and at least seriously would Captain America, instead Glaive is wounded by his own glaive, impossible since his immortality is derived from the weapon itself. The battle in Wakanda, there's a featured all women battle, Proxima Midnight would've killed them all but Scarlet Witch. Cull Obsideon gets dragged across Wakanda's shield after fighting Banner in the Hulk Buster suit...his skin is impenetrable like the Hulk.
I think every character in the MCU is depowered compared to their comic counterparts. Hulk, Strange, Thor especially. quote: Originally posted by Lord Vaalic:

I am under the impression that Scarlett Witch could only take out the Mind Stone because he powers were given by the that stone. I don't think all 6 stones have the same energy signature. |

What is the

| Marvel Cinematic Universe reminds me of DC's Injustice universe, in that everyone is strong enough to fight evenly with everyone, for the purpose of the game. |

| I enjoyed the movie, my 22 yr old daughter did not - the ending really bothered her. I reminded her there's a 2nd part next year, but she didn't care, apparently she was more interested in being angry about her fallen heroes lol. As a kid I only paid attention to Spider-Man, so the other avengers I know little about, but it certainly seems that Thor is meant to be the ultimate bad-ass in this Hollywood universe.

| Just it a few days ago, it’s a piece of dog poo of a movie...thanos did even have a proper army, before he got all the stones they could have stopped him. Loki game him the mind stone knowing thanos could still kill him. Thor went off to acquire some new power ( how convenient, he didn’t do that on Thor ragnarok)
Hulk gave on fighting after being handed his ass for the first time...doesn’t seem heroic at all...scarlet witch, captain America, falcon, vision, black panther etc all happened to be useless. Strange, iron man, spider man put up a good fight but the idiot from guarding of the galaxy (which is a crappy movie just to be clear) ruined the plan and effort to defeat thanos. This is summary of the movie and it’s 10 mark out of a hundred for me. |

| We all know where it’s leading to marvel comics movies are so predictable...they are gonna get the time stone from thanos and bring back everyone...dr strange had the time stone but won’t use it to fight against thanos, if he did...he would have wine the fight...like who’s gonna fight against time ? I upcoming batman movie will be something to see. |

I think BRB's head was featured on the 'arena planet' in Thor III (where they were making Hulk's face in metal on that big tower). . . That means that BRB was a former champion - status unknown following the revolt on that planet.

She could’ve done it anytime, vision should’ve been quarantined with lots of guards...did see the United state or world government involvement. There’re so many questions that’s left unanswered. |
