Avengers: Infinity War (2018) - SPOILER FREE DISCUSSION - DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT, STARMUNCH!

[physichull]

I'm curious as to what the casting budget for this movie was. It must have been insane!

I don't think that will matter! Surely it will be the most highly grossing Marvel film ever made.

No one can when he’s got the infinity gauntlet*

Spoiler: Comic spoiler

Adam Warlock defeats him by tricking him in to removing the gauntlet.

*Excluding “The One Above All” who is essentially God in the comics. Fun fact, he takes the form of Jack Kirby and is shown actually drawing stories in some stories.

The Beyonders or Beyonders can even with the Infinity Gauntlet. Currently Thanos has killed everybody worthy of killing in the comics without the Infinity Gauntlet. He's killed Galactus, Odin and is using the Hulk as his pet dog. The only surviving hero left is some variation of the Silver Sufer who has just gained the ability to use Mjoliner.

Can captain marvel defeat Thanos?

Depends on what is ment by defeat. In terms of power and abilities, no. In the comics Thanos is near power incarnate and is one of two beings who are not influenced by cause and effect. The other being Adam Warlock who in a separate time-line became the Living Tribunal aided by Thanos. It's quite ironic Thanos has saved the Universe more times than he has conquered and destroyed it.

I didn't see antman or black widow in the trailer (unless I missed it).

 

[V_R]

Black Widow at 47 seconds.

 

[Lord-Jaffa]

Was this always due for release in April? I was super excited to realise this was out in a month from the end of the trailer!

 

[VincentHanna]

Yep

In fact they bought it forward in the rest of the World by a week, but we were always getting in on 27th (and now we get it in 26th)

Good video explaining where the infinity stones are currently.

 

[doodah]

Ebony Maw looks awesome, hope they have done the rest of the Order justice. Cannot wait for this film .

 

[McPhee]

I didn't see antman or black widow in the trailer (unless I missed it).

Im pretty sure it's been confirmed that Ant Man isn't in the movie.

 

[JediFragger]

Im pretty sure it's been confirmed that Ant Man isn't in the movie.

Probably lined up for a big-ish role in Avengers 4.

 

[MooMoo444]

Im pretty sure it's been confirmed that Ant Man isn't in the movie.

No he's definitely in it, he's just very small so you can't see him

 

[Rifte]

Good video explaining where the infinity stones are currently.

Thats a great summary because after 10 years I was struggling with trying to remember where they all were. The only one I could remember clearly was the one stuck in the Vision's head.

Captain america

It looks absolutely fantastic! I’m really looking forward to it even more now.

This will easily be the highest grossing Marvel film they’ve made...perhaps one of the highest grossing films ever made also!

Isnt it already the highest grossing movie on pre-orders alone

 

[doodah]

Surely this is a $2bn money factory? I hope so, considering Titanic and Avatar take the top two spots

 

[PlacidCasual]

My biggest concern is putting this movie on such a pedestal that anything, even an amazing film, will seem a disappointment.

 

[VincentHanna]

Just saw an interview from the Russo Brothers that the big risk they took on this was having Thanos as the central character and telling the story mainly from his point of view.

 

[doodah]

Well if there's one main gripe with Marvel films, it's their villains. Hopefully this won't be the case for IW.

Would make a change, its not as if people are clueless to who the Avengers are so focusing on the bad guy for once might make for a more interesting movie.

 

[Deleted member 651465]

Interesting theory floating around. Has Marvel been clever, or has someone just found something that isn’t there?

I present the THANOS theory...

T - tesseract (space)

H - heart-shaped herb (soul)

A - aether (reality)

N - necklace (time)

O - orb (power)

S - sceptre (mind)
