Avengers: Infinity Wars To Be Retitled

[Vegita-San]

Spoiler:

Does THanos only get to use that stone power once, and they all get destroyed? Feels like they where mentioning the time stone an awful lot, and i thought it was going to be used as a mcguffin to undo alot of the damage. in part 2.

what's the point of saving the asgardians if they all die anyway? makes thor 3 seem rather pointless. I'm guessing hiddleston wanted out, cause loki died awful fast.

Not sure how stark survived. nanotech repairing?

there was ALOT going on in this movie.
I assumed thanos died at the end as he mentioned, but it said at the end thanos will return? or was it thor? I looked up as I was getting up and thought it said thanos.

That was exactly my point too. If SHE did, it it doesn't "count", because it's "SELF-sacrifice"/or cheating him out of it.

You really think a guy with four of the six Infinity Stones couldn't keep a woman from dying by throwing herself off a ledge?

[MsMarvelDuckie]

The point there is that if he did, he wouldn't be able to sacrifice her either. What's he going to do, make the cliff disappear? Make her land on more bubbles? Suspend her in the air indefinitely? Turn her into a bird? (Reality stone can do darn near ANYTHING.) Anything he did to stop her would ruin his own attempt as well. Catch 22.

People who constantly try to poke holes in movies are the worst people with which to go to the theater.

Yeah. The kind of people that are way to nitpicky about little things like. The way they look.

Not in that time frame. Dude, you're acting like she could freeze time and consider the millions of ways she could kill hersrlf without Thanos stopping her. You saw what she did, she tried to stab herself, it didn't work. Move on.

[plastroncafe]

Gamora, as per usual, was the one handed the Stupid Ball in this movie.
I'd be more upset about it, if it wasn't so damn expected.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Agreed. Heck it took me all of five seconds to come up with a half dozen alternatives to the knife. For that matter, why didn't she do same when Star Lord's gun blew bubbles? My thoughts? Always have at least two or three backup ideas ready to try in case Plan A bombs. I dunno, I guess if she had REALLY been determined to stop him from getting the Soul stone, she'd have found a way. Even if it meant just running back the way they came. He can't sacrifice what ain't there! (Granted, he might just put up a wall or something, but sitiations like this favor the person who can think faster on their feet.)

You guys really, really REALLY need to stop over-analyzing Gamora.

why?

it's part of what makes a character go when you think of what they did wrong, what they did right, or what motivates them.

[Coola Yagami]

I'm sure you all woulda done this or that, but you're not her. She doesn't think like you and won't suddenly have back up plans on top of back up plans as you guys claimed you would in such a situation. No matter what, she would have died. And no matter what she would have tried to do to avoid it, she would have failed and you'd still be asking 'well, why didn't she...?'

Most of you wouldn't have been brave enough to kill themselves in a moment like that, shut up.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Sorry, it's just something that stuck in my mind as to how the story could have gone VERY differently. So to with Strange and even with Quill and Thor.

I know but we all **** up, and have to deal with the consequences. Fictional characters in a good story are no different. Lots of stuff in lots of movies and whatnot have events happen cause hero A or hero B didn't do this or that.

[AT-Man]

All of the events lead to that only way they're gonna beat Thanos, that Strange saw in the future. If something else happened differently, everyone would be screwed for good.

speaking of which..

was there some VERY bad acting on the part of star lord after thanos got the soul stone? It almost seemed like he had to stop and think about the script and which insults came next.....

Also 'get that man a shield'... best line in the movie. yet, cap never had a full shield. wasted reveal.

that was my thought as well. the future thing was a setup. thanos has to win to loose.

and them mentioning the time stone , I Thought, more than the others.

Also, notice they didn't show what happened to dr.strange''s friend who went back to the mansion. Ant Man and Red Arrow where nowhere to be seen....and one or two other things i am probably forgetting.
Also,

Spoiler:

what was the symbol fury had on the device at the end/

[plastroncafe]

We're told that she's the fiercest woman in the universe, but we're never really shown that. That's not her fault as a character, it's the fault of the writer.

I think you're both missing the point. Even if Gamora was an incredibly quick thinker and came up with multiple solutions within the what, three or four seconds to process what was going on, Thanos would have stopped her.

If she tried to run off the cliff or away from him, he could have stopped her midair with the Power Stone, just like he used it on Wakanda. He also could have teleported her away from the edge with the Space Stone. Thanos had the advantage in position as well, being between her and the edge.

Obviously stabbing herself didn't work.

Stabbing Thanos would give the same results.

I guess she could have attacked the Stonekeeper, not really sure how much help that would do though.

What do you mean? I figured it out immediately the moment "you have to sacrifice something you love" while he's simultaneously dragging her up there. And then the scene went on for like 3 or 4 minutes. She had plenty of time.

To do what, though? I don't know. But certainly something better than what she did. Maybe.
