How I personally felt and why I felt underwhelmed with it. Maybe I'm missing something and the point was they were building up to the 3rd act and final battle but still thought it didn't fully deliver IMO.

I wasn't a big fan of the decision to


and the middle act just feels kind of meandering, the nods and callbacks are cute but it kinda feels like you're just waiting and waiting.

I thought most of the key emotional beats in the movie landed, especially with Thor and Iron Man, but...


Third act was strong enough for me to overlook a lot of that though. Lots of big "HOLY CRAP" moments. "I knew it!"

kojima could sell a broken VHS tape with the words 'video game' scribbled on a sticky label in felt tip and it would still be on the top 10 bestselling games of the year and receive multiple 10/10 reviews from media outlets for its deep artistic value and boldness

The trailer was especially very misleading having expected a combination of time travel and massive space adventure of a grand scale going through.

Plus the whole premise was very dark on the level of The Empire Strikes Back given the Snap that just wiped out 50% of all life and yet again to keep audiences attained has the usual jokey jokes which should had been an exception. Not saying it had to be totally dark but should of used levity similar to that of The Empire Strikes Back.

Like, while I have problems with Endgame's script and I think some of the third act is too dark looking/cluttered... I've never heard an audience go nuts as much as when Cap does the thing. Like holy cow.

Found a cool remix of Street Fighter 2010. Weird game, but it does have some good music.

I did deeply love the Skrulls in Captain Marvel.

And while stuff like this is subjective, I feel that I know what I'm saying as a F4 fan.

But yeah, I'll always admire Kojima or Noipoi Noipoi even if our thoughts about some movies differ. Both are just too awesome and kind to bash over entertainment.

I think you can say it now. At this point, everyone knows about how Cap used his final smash to banish Thanos to the Shadow Realm

The fact that you're still going on about the Thor scene just tells me you didn't understand what was happening to him. Thor has one of the better arcs in the film.

Is it bad that Hawkeye's arc hits me home since it felt close to me during the past months?

Seriously doh, when Hawkeye said the "Don't do it... Don't give me hope again" line at the cinema I got a lot of chills in my body...

That was basically how my soul and heart thought before June, and that line really got into me.

I relate to Rocket's arc in Endgame, as I too am a talking Racoon Alien with a gun

That was exactly how it went for me.

And yeah, I was glad to see him later in the movie celebrating the return of his family.

I mean, I guess the character is supposed to be relatable...? I mean, for all the wrong reasons in this case.

Also I now imagine JD looking like Hawkeye.

I'm so behind on the MCU. I haven't even watched Infinity War yet. I feel so lost on these conversations.

I'll get around to watching the important ones...eventually.

Also, I'm not seeing which scene, but Far From Home has this amazing scene y'all will enjoy. I mean, almost every scene is amazing, but this one in particular is incredible.

Ngl, one of the best part about making levels and uploading them is to then see where peoples die in what spot.

I don't know, maybe it's a bit sadistic coming from my part, but I always find it funny to see someone die somewhere I wouldn't have expected, like it give you a image as to what happened on the player side and it's just hilarious.

I didn't start watching the MCU until Civil War, does that make me a fake fan? The reason I avoided superhero movie until the age of 12 is because every superhero movie I had seen prior to Civil War, I hated. This included TASM2, Thor 2, both DCEU films, and X Men 3.

Honestly while I had a lot of faults with Endgame, the biggest thing that bugged me with it was something very indirect. That being...

Who would win in a fight, Thanos without the gauntlet, or 100 Duck Hunt Dogs?
