Just watched it again. I didn't see anything that I didn't catch the first time. A good 40 people at a 10:30 a.m. showing. Not too bad for the little city I go to. 

So, that ending was dumb. Why “kill” people that we know aren’t dead? We already have the announcement of Spiderman 2, GOTG 3 and Black Panther 2. I literally couldn’t care less about he ending of that movie because of that. Complete stupidity to not pick characters who could actually die.

1. Spiderman and BP new movies can be set before Infinity War. Marvel has already said that the MCEU will not be "linear" after IW and Avengers 4 anymore.

2. They have already said that GOTG3 will have a different cast, now I doubt it will be as different as would require for all those that "died". But I fully expect Gamora and maybe 1 more to stay "dead".

Yeah, I mean I get that. But if they go back in time with their movies, they just wont be as good. Its either ruining this movie, or future movies. Seems like bad planning by Marvel.

Anyway, I have a hard time believing they are all dead.

If you know anything about the comic series this movie is played off of, then you know they aren't all "permanently" dead. They are currently dead for sure...but if someone else gets ahold of the gauntlet...of course it is loosely based off the Infinity Gauntlet series in the comics...so they could change it all up.

Everything up to this point has been coordinated and well planned. So I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt. 

And yes. I have a hard time believing they are all dead. I feel like the upcoming Ant-Man/Wasp movie is going to be in no man's land. It has to be set prior to the events of IW, otherwise they expect the audience to believe that none of the major characters happened to be in the 50%. 

I think Captain Marvel next year is going to be the key step up for Avengers 4.

Thought it was obvious....one of the stones is time travel right......acquire it, go back a little bit and bam they are alive

On top of it one of the stones is the "soul stone". In the original comics they were gems, not stones, but the same soul gem actually "housed" all the dead souls after Thanos killed half the universe.

The movie alluded to this as when he snapped his fingers he goes to a "place" where he can see Gamora as a child...that is supposed to be the soul stone dimension or whatever.

Someone has to/will find a way to either go back in time with the Gauntlet or extract all the "souls" out of the soul stone. 

I think the comics went the soul gem route instead of the time gem route, but I could be mistaken.

I'm expecting it to be concurrent with the way they've been promoting the movie. They should explain why they weren't there.

Captain marvel is set in the 90s. She is supposed to be the most powerful yet, but I have low expectations...
