Since Endgame is probably one of the most anticipated films we've had here in a while, let's quarantine all discussion from those who have seen the film (or who have otherwise read spoilers). If you don't want to see stuff get spoiled, stay out!
(And this will likely be the last time I view this thread until Friday, so if you need me to put something in the OP or similar, shoot me a PM. I won't read posts in here.) [Reply]

It's still crazy to me how epic this whole thing is, from both a storytelling standpoint and the sheer momentum and logistical planning necessary just to get the thing filmed.
They did it. The mad men actually did it.. and they did it well.
Crazy thing is, this isn't even the end. They can just keep going with the lesser known characters.
If they decide to get creative with time travel or multiverses, they can just 'reboot' the main guy's we've lost like Stark and Rogers and just seamlessly transition into other large stories like Galactus, Secret Wars, House of M, etc. [Reply]

Sadly, she didn’t get to the best part of the movie.

And I'm with Rausch. Both times I saw it the theater went nuts when Cap called Mjolnir. Top that off with the "On your left..." with the climactic battle, and you have achieved maximum awesomeness. Just perfect.
I wish I had gone the first night it was open....wife didn't want to face the crowds and neither did my buddies. (I converted all of them to Marvel fans)
By the time I got to see the movie it was 2 weeks old and the theater wasn't as pumped as I was. The theater was half full and it was only me and another guy geeking out on the best parts. Felt like I was at a showing for Senior Citizens and the Masters all rolled into one. (the crowd silence was weird for me) [Reply]

I've always felt the people who feel the need to audibly squeal, shout, etc during cool scenes are a bit on the weird side.
Then call me weird in some cases....
You would have liked to have gone with my buddies...
For this movie, I would have loved to have been in the crowd with some of the videos I have seen of the crowd reaction to Cap lifting Thor's hammer.
There is one video on Youtube that looks like it was show at a bar type theater...the crowd went crazy when the hammer hit Thanos and then returned to Cap.

I saw it in a smallish theater filled with age group of like 13-18 year old boys with some parents sprinkled in .. it was a sight to see and hear the kids holler when cool parts displayed like capt weikding the hammer, kinda reminds you what it's all about [Reply]

That was the crowd I wanted to be in.

Like I said, if it comes in the right amounts it can truly enhance the experience. The issue is that there's a pretty fine line between tasteful and, like, now you're getting on my fucking nerves. It can go from "Ok, awesome. Everyone is as into this as I am" to "Wait, what did he just say? Why is that chick behind me still screaming?" very quickly. I don't trust the average person to know when to stop so I generally just prefer everyone to be quiet. [Reply]

Truly a menacing villain. He'll be missed.
John was the perfect t cast to play thanos [Reply]

While true, Thor wasn't the Thor that buried Stormbreaker in Thanos' chest five years earlier, either. [Reply]
