HOLY
FUCKING
SHIT
yawn
It's good, but the number of announced upcoming films really takes away any emotional heft at the end.
But massive kudos for making a story with this many characters not just comprehensible, but fun.
Aside: Middle Murton and I did a double feature with Black Panther first, then Infinity War immediately after. Very glad we did that given how much of the movie takes place in Wauconda. I think even Al Salvi had a bit part.

Bolding "Al Salvi" would have illustrated the point more. Fucking Christ I hadn't thought of that guy in
years

Holy shit. I was not expecting to make a joke trolling TJ and Salvi's in the news the SAME DAY. (https://capitolfax.com/2018/04/30/blast-from-the-past-considers-then-drops-bid-for-governor-on-same-day/)
He was going to run for governor yesterday. Until he wasn't.

Having just seen this last night, I agree. There is no way I can think of to make a more aimless movie. The Carol Burnett Show was more sophisticated in composition.
For some reason, these are being aired in reverse order, so I'm catching the last two-thirds of Endgame now. Look: Your most interesting character is a CGI weasel. Giving Hulk a Cockney accent would have been an improvement.
And everybody is on a fucking lapidary adventure. Buy a rock tumbler and go home.
[
Edit.---It's a damn shame that the Fantastic Four movies all apparently sucked perianal fistulae. I never followed any of the Avengers characters when I was a kid and literally bought the comics off a rotating display in the front of the Ben Franklin.]
