Goodness me - I thought Return of the King milked the ending... :p

The Avengers Endgame spoileriffic thread
(I'll merge this back into the main movie thread once things have settled down a bit)
So many hits in the feels. Thor and Frigga especially (for me). |
How old is Cap by the end of the movie? 140 or thereabouts?
|
I have the body of Thor...
Also - Fortnight - ha! |
The coolest thing about that scene was Korg sitting there on the couch in Taika Waititi's pineapple pyjamas.
|
Yes! - I initially thought it was a random Hawaiian shirt, which strangely mirrored what I was wearing - but then in fell into place.
|
Fuck I’m so amped to go see it again.

4 times in my big boy adult life I’ve had acute eyewatwery sniffly hayfever attacks in cinemas and 3 of those were in Endgame. I did better than 9-yr-old Vianne who was a complete wreck. I want to go solo to a late-night bar-service session where I can sit in the corner and drink through the feels.

Man, such a hit in the feels. By itself it was a good movie, but as the end of such a massive journey, wow. Some incredible writing to tie everything together like that.
Quick list of highlights for me..

So great. Highlight for me was Captain America, pretty much all of it. First Avenger is still my favourite of all of the MCU movies so Peggy and Steve getting their happy life together made me cry (I got upset enough when he saw her through the office window, I’m so glad they followed through with it). Hail Hydra and the Steve vs Steve fight were great as well.
Also, how cool is it that GoTG 3 looks like it’ll have Thor as well? Ragnarok has clearly had an impact on Hemsworth, that dude was funny as hell in this one. “She’s got help” hit me too - I’m glad my boys are growing up seeing women kick arse. Can’t wait to see it again. |
May have let out a fairly loud "YEAH!" as soon as I realized cap got the hammer.
Also: "you have the little one" So good. |
When I was a kid Captain America and Spider-Man were my guys, and the two moments in the movie that elicited spontaneous yells of "YEAH!!" from me were Cap catching Mjølnir and Spidey swinging back through the portal.
Edit - first time I've ever experienced an Australian cinema crowd applauding at the end of a movie. also, first time in a loooong time that I've seen a queue at a cinema. Like, snaking through the lobby and out the door and down the street. It was like the 20th century all over again. |
The last time (I can remember at least...) every single cinema at the multi-plex was showing the same movie, was Avatar?

Speaking of spoilers: Justice or overreaction?

Total overreaction

Went and grabbed cheese burger right after the movie. It was fantastic.
So many great moments in the film. The pacing was so well done. The humour really worked to break up the tension between scenes.
Gotta be some awkward reunions tho', five years is a long time. |
Thought it was an average movie. Too many threads/stories to it. I have enjoyed some of the other movies like Dr Strange but not this one.
|
I feel like we don't even know you anymore.

hiding in plain sight
Paul Rudd looking at her like are you insane I'm right behind you the sniper could shoot right through you |

The scene where they all line up is an Easter-egg for A-force.

Thinking about the split timeline(s) gets a bit messy. |
I just tried to work it out... Movie canon is that he's 25 when he gets the serum in 1943. Frozen in 1945 at or about 27. Wakes up in 20(11?) at the age of 27, defeats Thanos in 2023 at age 39. Goes back to (1945?), reunites with Peggy and takes the long way around back to 2023 to meet with Bucky and Sam lakeside, making him 39+78=119 years old?

That reminds me, has anyone done the maths on Captain Marvel yet? ;)

Variations to this could be - Cap goes back to reunite with Peggy in a year more recent than 1945, like staying in 1970. I think this unlikely given that he "had a date" at 8pm on a Saturday night in 1945 and had been told not to be late. - Cap goes back to 1945, lives with Peggy until she dies sometime around 2016, then hits the return button on his quantum bracelet and returns to lakeside 2023, missing the platform and appearing at the water's edge (this would also explain Prof Hulk's comment). I had always assumed that super-soldier-serum Cap would age very slowly if at all, kinda like Logan. I was surprised to see him looking elderly. |

How awkward for you pxpx, to discover you've been hanging out with nerds all this time. ;)
