Infinity War Part 1, really pissed me off and felt more like "sell sell sell sell" in other words " it felt more like how many tickets can Disney can sell." Guardians of Galaxy One, the good guys were such kicking butts and taking names. After GoG. Disney has dumb down our heroes. Just saw Antman & Wasps, writing has gotten so weak, it's all about selling our super heroes to the public majority, there's no need to reinvent the wheel here, just to sell more tickets.......

Well if you like the comics Infinity War Part 1 was very close to the original comic version with some slight twists and differences.

I actually liked Infinity War Part 1...I kind of hate splitting them, but honestly, the stories aren't short and might need multi movies...yes, it translates to more sales, but it would also suck if they tried to condense the story into one 2.5 hour movie, imo.

Hello,
I liked Ant-Man and the Wasp. The end credit scenes are having me super anxious for Cap Marvel, and Avengers 4. But then again, I watch, read, collect anything marvel related so my opinion might be biased :P (135 marvel Funko pops and counting, 35+ posters, 100+ comics). I agree with Transdogmifier, splitting the characters up caused some confusion for my friends who are not as into the Marvel movies. However, following their meet and greet and Q&A's all the characters were split to complete their own arc/story line and how they link together. It's extremely hard to link all those characters and story lines/timelines together. I'm excited to see how Venom get's into the mix, especially with such versatility.

Ant Man and the Wasp was good clean fun. Great movie for the whole family. Even more family friendly than the first one. I know that does not fly with some people that want more swearing and adult content in their comic book movies but come on most of these are movies for kids and young at hearts to sell fun and toys.
Not all the movies need to be Logan, there is plenty of room for these less stressful movies as well. I would personally get bored if they where all the same.

My wife lives in Florida while completing her doctorate program and I live in delaware. We like seeing movies together, so we go when we can go together. I read spoilers while I wait, lol. She hates spoilers but I love them. I dont believe they can give all of the information in a spoiler so there is always a surprise waiting to be found.

I personally hate spoilers. Someone told me the Titanic sinks so I never watched that movie because of the spoiler. Honestly though I think Marvel is doing a great job but really didn’t care for Ant-Man. It seemed to go for the easy laugh rather then being a super hero movie in serious sense so while I want to see Ant-Man and the Wasp I have another level of expectations for it. Also when it comes to Marvel they do a good job of action as long as you don’t think to much about the motivation of the bad guy. Iron Man is a great example the bad guy literally was a billionaire VP of a major corporation who wanted for nothing but needed more power and riches?

What I thought was pretty stupid in Infinity War is that they had the guy beaten about halfway though. It was done. Then twinkle toes just had to punch him. That whole scene was pretty ridiculous.

I believe the real concern is 'Why is Gamora?'

I could have really enjoyed infinity war if the hadn't gone full cash grab two parter. I even could have forgiven this if they actually labeled it part 1. Nope instead we get half a story with a middle finger at the end and a wait till 2019 snark of Thanos will return. Please pay a few more billion to see what should have been included to start with.

I know, some characters were pushed to the background and weakened. While I appreciate the technical side of the film and ambition of IW it is not Marvel's best movie to date. It still has its own flaws which needs improvement.

What TIK said...
IW was all about pushing ticket sells, Antman&wasp was halfazzed, just to push sells for IW2, if Captain Marvel is weak writing, Im done with Marvel and Disney....
