@fineursine I was lukewarm on it the night I saw it and soured on it pretty immediately. The fact that they use the exact. same. Plot beat where someone is confronted with killing their significant other for the Greater Good was like... really bad imo.

@fineursine I don't understand anyone who was sad or shocked when people started dissolving at the end. I guess as someone who read D.C. for a long time the idea of everyone just getting evangelioned seemed like business as usual. The status quo is worth way too much to these people to ever shift it meaningfully - that is how comics actually work, haha

@fineursine I think what actually happened is that for a long time I was really excited about the prospect of the shared universe because it felt so similar to comics - this is the drawback. If it's similar in the fun and exciting respects, it will also necessarily have the same pitfalls.

@fineursine I did wonder if they would have known how much $$ black panther would have made if they would have kept him alive, haha. I will forgive them everything if they use thanos to punch the time stream and revive killmonger, tho 👀

@fineursine no prob dude, haha. When I see all the glowing reviews of this movie I feel like I'm trapped in an alternate universe and everyone saw a different one, so it's nice to hear from someone who had a similar reaction. I think there's really good interactions and some good beats in the film but an awful lot of bad story that felt very hollow and pointless.
