Here are some interesting notes from the Russo brothers on one scene. Really gives you an appreciation for the technical detail.


On another note, I don’t think there will be a five year time jump like I’ve been hearing about (based on the age of Ant Man’s daughter). I feel like they would have to recast Spider Man’s supporting cast if they do that and probably even Shuri from BP.

The Time Stone will solve all those problems.

Gamora isn't dead, but trapped in the Soul Gem. Because I've read on wikipedia the Soul Stone traps people in something called the Soul World, and there's even an instance where Gamora was trapped in it in the comic book continuity.

Chances are this is where the rest of the people offed at the end of IW went. And that we'll spend a lot of time there in the next installment?

Yes and no. Gamora is dead af, she got thrown from a cliff. Her soul is trapped in the stone. Apparently when someone is trapped in the soul stone it creates a personal paradise for them, so that could be why Gamora was a child because that was the last time she was happy.

As for everyone else being trapped in the soul stone, it's possible but I don't really think so. I think they just gone. Gamora was there only because she was sacrificed for the soul stone.

I think in the next movie we will see Thanos conversing with little Gamora in the soul world / realm whatever, but I don't expect to spend a lot of time there or see a bunch of people hanging out. I could be totally wrong of course.
 
I finally got to see it yesterday and upon leaving my first thought was. I can’t wait to see it again next week, the movie was fucking fantastic and I loved it. Mind you I read all the spoilers and it didn’t change a thing.

This wasn’t too jokey (some fell flat but overall great), Drax was amazing with his timing, fucking Captain America’s entrance was killer and I totally got a tear at Spider-Man’s death. Thanos really is one of the most amazing cgi creations on screen ever in my opinion. He was so relatable it’s hard to remember he’s killing billions

DC has made some blunders, but they aren't a bunch of screwups. Just screwups by comparison.

Completely disagree. They literally crammed, The Death of Superman and Batman vs Superman into one movie for what seems like absolutely not reason at all. Then threw in Wonder Woman. After I saw that movie I told myself I was never going to the movies for DC again. Then they got me again with Suicide Squad though but after then I was done.
 
The 1 thing I strongly disliked was when Starlord was asked who is his master and he responded sarcastically what do you want me to say, Jesus?

Chris Pratt is a Christian I believe so it was shocking and a letdown he said it.

It’s the films only flaw imo

Honestly whilst 1-2 jokes fell a little fat I was actually very impressed just how well this film merged the comedy and the drama, helped I spose by making almost all of the former banter rather than physical comedy. Almost has be thinking whether the Russo's should be directing the next Guardians film.

Thanos I think shows you its not really about exact photo realism, yeah I could tell he was CGI but you give a character personality and that doesn't matter, Gollum was the same in LOTR.

Perhaps the most underrated aspect of this film for me is actually the editing given its complexity. I think the Russo's absolutely nailed this giving each sub story a good long time rather than constantly intercutting between them for most of the film, only going that direction for the final climax.

I'm confused what was shocking about it? Why was it a let down?

Death of superman should have been it's own thing aaaaallllllllllllllllllllll dayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
 
Off topic I watched Spider-Man homecoming and it was surprisingly really really good. I enjoyed it a lot.

Might be the best Spider-Man film

How is at the expense of Jesus? For that to be true the joke would involve Pratt making fun of Jesus in a negative way. He simply asked him if he wanted him to say Jesus was his master. There was no insult to Jesus or religion in general in that joke.

It's one of the greatest stories in comic history. To just throw it into BVS like it's no big deal seriously pissed me off.

Maybe I took it the wrong way because people in the theater were laughing once it was said and I'm a little sensitive when it comes to it.
