What I hate the most is how they treated Thor’s depression compared to how they treated Wanda’s mental illness.
Wanda committed atrocities as a response to her inability to deal with grief and Marvel loves to give excuses for her actions. A fake sympathy for the villain.
Thor just got fat because of his deep depression and Marvel treated him as an incompetent slob that all his character arc before that must be reversed. He isn’t fit to rule so he has to give a throne to a drunken slaver who had a track record of selling thousands if not millions innocent people to their death for alcohol money.

Hulk had one of the most anticlimactic endings to a story arc I've ever seen.

I will never like the end they gave to Captain America. It makes no sense that he, after having three entire movies solely about saving Bucky, would leave him essentially alone in a world that is entirely foreign to him, to get married to a girl he kissed once a hundred years ago. AND he did this while knowing that she built a life for herself and had a family.

Cap's arc in this movie has the same problem Nolan gave Batman in The Dark Knight Rises. At the end of that film, he fakes his death and runs off with a woman he just met. Batman is also a character who doesn't give up. He doesn't give up his mission. He's been shown in certain continuities to not even let age stop him. In Kingdom Come he uses technology. In The Dark Knight Returns, he defies the government. In Batman Beyond, he takes on a protege to act as his proxy.

The moment Infinity War ended I told my kids: "don't worry, they'll use time travel to bring them all back."

I thought I was joking.

I had COMPLETELY forgotten about the line at the end of age of ultron where cap says “the guy who wanted all that went into the ice 75 years ago.”

That makes the end of his story in endgame so cheap

My issue with Thor isn't that he's a fat and depressed alcoholic. My issue is that it's mocked and made fun of

It's weird how every time I rewatch Infinity War, I like it even more, but each time I rewatch Endgame, it gets worse.

Still destroys me that the only two things Tony needed to solve time travel was a single late night and Paul Rudd reminding him that time travel movies are a thing.

Tony Stark: "Time travel is impossible"
*thinks about it for 5 minutes
Tony Stark: "I invented time travel"

It's crazy to think that half the MCU is only alive because one heroic rat pressed a button. I guess if the rat didn't do that it would've been eaten by a purple dragon at the end of time.

The thing that annoys me is that they turned the infinity stones irrelevant. In this movie they only use them as a combo, and after this movie they are paperweights. They continue to exist in every other timeline but suddenly no one uses them

Honestly. If Thor was kept as he was in the movie, but with it treated as sad and sympathetic rather than a laugh, I'd love it. Depression isn't a joke.

The thought Evil or Dark Thor makes my mouth water. That would have been so badass. Instead of sadness, that trauma turns into hate which corrupts his good intentions. He essentially becomes overprotective and more hateful towards enemies. Besides his current direction is undoing 10 years worth of build up

People were so overwhelmed with emotion seeing so many heroes in one place, that they didn't realize what a waste Endgame and Thanos were, how much better it could have been.

Thank you so much for talking about steve's character assassination; that was honestly my least favourite thing about the movie and infuriates me to this day, and it's rarely brought up in any discussion of this film

One of the biggest problems with the MCU is that every time someone writes a new film they have the mindset of "fuck what already exists and the current story, I'm just gonna tell my story" which leads to all the contradictions between stories and the shitting over previous films that we keep seeing

The thing that bothered me most about the captain America time travel was he went back in time and didn't rescue bucky... how???

Just remember that Captain America got old and went back to the time when getting old doesn't matter because of Pym Particles.

57:50 Hey I know I am too late to point this out but, I have never seen anyone acknowledge that the Avengers have basically invented immortality in Endgame. The failed experiments that Hulk does with Scott and mistakenly pulls TIME through him instead of him through the time and makes him younger. And they never used or even mentioned it. Cap is old? Just put him in the van time machine and he'll be as good as new. Anyone got shot? As we have seen in Doctor Strange, running an apple back in time heals the bites on it. Time machine healing. You could even have infinite resources, eat an apple and then put the core in the machine to make it grow back. There's still apple in your stomach and you have another apple.
