-Dr Strange knew what he was doing giving up the Time Stone; the only way to defeat Thanos would be to allow him to get what he wants, only to discover it isn't what he actually wants!
We just got home from seeing it and WOW! Still coming down, lol. I really loved the pop culture references- apparently even
a Doctor Who line as one of the characters faded, since he just can’t help himself...
I wasn’t sure how far we were going with spoilers. I still feel awkward naming specific characters, even in this spoiler thread!
That is my personal theory. Thanos will see that his 'saving the universe' will not be the positive action he expected. Just think of all the planets where people disintegrated with no explanation. There could be mass suicides, destructive cults created, wars breaking out as enemies blamed each other for the deaths... the potential for havoc is massive. At least when Thanos showed up personally they knew who and what was killing people.
As far as the movie deaths go, I think there is a good chance that he will turn things back all the way to killing Gamora to get the Soul Stone. He will realize his mistake in killing the one person he seemed to have sincere feelings for. Pre-Soul Stone, I think Loki will be back. He is, after all, the trickster god and has faked his death before.
In my mind this is the greatest movie ever made.
In my mind this is the greatest movie ever made. I saw it opening night at the local VIP theatre. What an incredible Cinematic Event! The theatre was dead silent the last 30 mins. After the movie ended no one left their seats, no one spoke, everyone was sitting in silence trying to process the incredible journey they had just been on.
After the after credit scene rolled my friend and I turned to each other and be both said "WOW".
I went again on Saturday with DW. She enjoys these movies, but is not "into" them on the same level as me. I'm a comic book geek from my childhood. So her thoughts more so represent the average person. As we walked out of the theatre I asked what she thought. Her response " that is the best movie I've ever seen"
What an amazing accomplishment this film was. You can't just make a movie like this. It truly was 10 years and 18 prequels in the making. This movie is simply on a whole different level than anything else made before it.
My one and only critic of this movie is they have now set the bar so high I'm not sure how they can equal that level again?
While I am not sure I am ready to go that far(until I see the movie again.... and maybe again), I do think this is a modern masterpeice. When you get hyped up for a big movie THIS is the kinda payoff that you are hoping for but rarely ever get. I've heard it compared to Empire Strikes Back and that is probably as apt a comparison as you can get. It was clearly the best of the Marvel movies and the culmination of a decade of story telling but would have expected such a total victory from Thanos?
To be fair they will obviously reverse course somehow(Time Stone likely), but I would think they will be forced to go back only so far probably not far back enough to save Vision, Loki or Heimdall. I expect the ones who bit the dust(teehee) will be safe, including Gamora. While those left behind will be on the chopping block.
Really great movie.
Just based on the announced future movie schedule, the next movie will have to reset a lot of those deaths.
Heading into the movie Thursday night with my girlfriend we both were speculating on what we thought was going to happen. We both predicted (like everyone else) that either Tony or Steve was going to die and that I would be only truly surprised if T'Challa or Peter Parker died, haha. Truly surprising ending. Very bold move by Disney/Marvel.
As much as I want the characters who died via the snap to come back, does anyone else think bringing them all back to life via time travel is a bit straightforward? With all the misdirects and twists in these movies (especially with the Russo bros. directing) there has to be something else they are doing. EDIT: also saving dead superheroes via time travel has already been done with X-Men: Days of Future Past.
It would be another bold move by Disney/Marvel to keep at least some of the characters dead as a big movie like this should have consequences on the bigger universe. Kevin Feige has kept on saying that the events in both Avengers movies are going to change the future of the MCU forever... bringing them all back would just have everything back to normal at the end of Avengers 4.

I don't think it will be time travel.
It will have something to do with the Gauntlet itself. It's been years since I read the original comics, but if memory serves me correctly after Thanos gets everything he wants it's not as satisfying as he hoped. He loses his sense of purpose and kind of goes crazy. Before he kills himself and gives up the Gauntlet he reverses the universe wide genocide he did.
It could be this or somehow the heroes get the Gauntlet off him and one of them try's to use it. Of course normal humans would be consumed by the Gauntlet so someone might die trying.
Then to play that scenario out...will it be Thor?I think it will definitely be one of the heroes. I don't think it is a coincidence we saw the mold for the gauntlert.
