I really enjoyed it. I have to say that Thor was fantastic in this. I loved Rangarok and this just added to the love, he was badass and the reactions when he showed up on the Guardians' ship was priceless. I'll see how Avengers 4 shakes out before I get super depressed about this one ended but I feel that out of all of them Gamora's story was shafted. I love me some Bucky and Cap and I thought that Cap had a great intro. I cheered when he showed up.

I cheered when Cappy showed up, too, and I was {Spoiler}worried about him because of the pre-release rumors of spoilers (a.k.a. "They don't know we know they know we know, you know!") And then he barely had anything to do, AND forgot to take his shirt off. They didn't have time for that?!?!?! They did make up for it with Scruffy Ruffalo, though!
Will also have to process this. It DID feel like leaving a funeral, as Ladybug up thread said. No noise in the audience at all. Actually, the only real time the audience reacted was the first time we arrived in Wakanda.
Best in Show: Gamora (Rest in Peace), Vin Diesel and Bradley Cooper again doing so much great voice work (that snide, sarcastic, SOO teenager-y "I am Groot" at the beginning!) and Dr. Strange vs. Iron Man for the Arrogant Know It All Award. Such a talented cast! Also thank you to Babycakes for explaining the symbol at the Stinger ending (roughly 12 minutes after the movie itself ends!) I had no idea what that was. |

I had no idea what that symbol was either, fortunately a guy sitting near me explained it to his friend loudly enough that I heard it. ITA re: Cap: {Spoiler}The lack of gratuitous shirtlessness was definitely a mark against this movie. At least we still had Hemsworth's arms. Everything with Dr. Strange and Stark was gold. |

If you had told me that Thor would end up being my favorite Avenger when his first movie came out, I would have laughed. But they've done a great job developing his character, and I have to give kudos to Chris Hemsworth for making Thor funny and sympathetic. I'm also surprised how much I like Dr. Strange because I normally can't stand Cumberbatch. All the things about him that annoy me actually work for that character. |

The Wasp and Ant Man are going to help get the others back as they have knowledge of the Quantam Realm, Captain Marvel is thought of the mightiest Avenger so she and Thor can physically take Thanos on. And if they bust out with Red Hulk? Baby, Thanos better watch his ass.

I have to say as someone who hasn’t seen Black Panther and is seriously Marveled Out (with only loving the 2nd Guardians our of the last five or so movies)- I LOVED THIS!
I can’t wait to see it again.

I enjoyed the Dr. Strange/Tony banter. Kind of reminded me of Cap/Tony banter before the bitterness.

I'm amused that in this movie that is overflowing with Hollywood's biggest hunks, the only one who takes his shirt off is Mark Ruffalo, the only guy who doesn't hit the gym hard for the role. I don't think Evans wants to strip anymore (he's only gone topless in the first Cap movie) as he'd have to wax his chest. |

I was so distracted by everything else, I didn't even remember that there was no gratuitous shirtless scene from one of the Chrises. We did get Thor's arms though. Sigh. Thor's arms....

There's just something about Cumberbatch's voice as Dr. Strange. It's a MASSIVE difference from his natural voice and accent. I could listen to it all day..especially when he's schooling Stark and basically telling him to just shut the hell up. LOL
