So I finally got around to watching Endgame last night and...hard to believe it, but they stuck the dismount.
EsperBot
I kind of wish I saw it in theatres, because I imagine the audience pop off when literally EVERYBODY comes striding through a portal must have been a hell of a thing to experience
Quinneapolis
the biggest pop off moment at my theater was Captain Thor
EsperBot
Oh I BET.
oh i'm scary
that and the portals seem to be tied overall
EsperBot
The time travel mechanics hurt your brain if you think about them too hard, which is why you shouldn’t
Quinneapolis
they DEFINITELY don't make any sense
EsperBot
Tilda Swinton reprising the Ancient One was a bit of a surprise. Same problems as in Doctor Strange, though: Tilda’s putting in good work but every single frame that character is onscreen is A Problem.
Quinneapolis
my personal favorite moment:
Quinneapolis
Hail Hydra
EsperBot
Yeah that was good.
EsperBot
Also, that it was all the same guys as the elevator scene from Winter Soldier
EsperBot
Also fond of Loki yeeting himself out of there with the Tesseract
EsperBot
Just, him looking around like ‘wait is nobody ACTUALLY noticing this?’
EsperBot
‘Never look a gift horse in the mouth I guess’
Quinneapolis
I hear there's gonna be a TV series following Loki after that point
EsperBot
Yes, and it has the worst logo of all time
EsperBot
Captain Marvel making her entrance was also pretty hype
Quinneapolis
when all the guns point up into the clouds and start firing frantically
Quinneapolis
and you just know
EsperBot
“Wait why’s they stop shooting us, what are they shooting at...oh. Oh okay yeah”
EsperBot
This version of Captain Marvel is HILARIOUSLY powerful
EsperBot
Much more in line with, say, Nova Prime from the comics than Carol’s actual comic counterpart
EsperBot
But I’m not complaining.
EsperBot
Also, although yes, this is yet another superhero movie that culminates in a huge destructive brawl with a bunch of faceless mooks
EsperBot
1) This one takes place well away from any civilian population, removing the most uncomfortable element of that

2) honestly, sometimes you just wanna beat up a horde of monsters
Quinneapolis
you need SOMETHING for 80 superheroes to do
Quinneapolis
they can't just all fight Thanos there's not enough room
EsperBot
Exactly
EsperBot
And honestly the Marvel movies hadn’t really gone back to that well since Age of Ultron, I don’t think?
Rama
There was a mass battle in Black Panther, but it was mostly redshirt v. redshirt
EsperBot
Ah, yeah. The shortest civil war ever. Man, I wish Black Panther had been two movies.
Rama
It would have worked well, but crowded schedules
EsperBot
It really felt like two excellent movies crammed into one pretty-good movie.
