    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

      That was without a doubt, the most I have ever felt connected with a cinema crowd. I have never heard so much clapping or cheering, and I don't mean that in a bad way. We were ALL on the same page. And honestly in a few parts, I was probably the loudest, because I had many fanboy dreams manifest on the screen.

      There are some niggly things to ponder how they really work...but if you can accept a talking racoon with a machine gun and a sentient cloak...why worry about such things?

      The best possible conclusion to the entire MCU saga thus far. They more than stuck that landing.

        Can't believe we are living in these times when this stuff is popular.

        I haven't seen it yet, but I *love* reading these analyses.

          Tom (MIB41) and I went to the 7:00 P.M. Friday night showing and it was packed to capacity and, as I’m hearing from various other folks, everyone in our theater was on the same (comics) page. THIS movie really defines the EPIC in a whole new way and I’ve got a feeling it will be a long while before even MARVEL STUDIOS themselves can find a way to top this. It made us laugh, clap, cry and shout along with everyone around us. By all means, see this movie as soon as you can so you can truly experience it firsthand.
          sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

            IMHO...I don't think we will see something of this scale, with this impact, for a very long time...this was truly an event.

            Tears, Cheering, Applause...more Tears, more Cheering, more Applause.

            I think I can safely say that if you have kept away from any kind of spoilers or theories, you will be definitely surprised. It looked & felt like a comic book story unraveling before my eyes (if that makes any sense)...it hit all the right points & checked-off all the right boxes...for me.

            Did I have issues with some (very minor) parts...sure...but that is just My POV dealing with My OCD.

            There are sooo many Easter Eggs, it's almost impossible to catch them all in one viewing, but it also doesn't make you feel like you missed something.

            Will definitely see this multiple times, in different formats, at matinee prices (so I can afford to do that).

            Also, when it was over, I wanted to re-watch ALL the previous Movies (My OCD)...including Iron Man 3 & Thor: The Dark World...and that is saying ALOT!!!

            I hope everyone finds something they like in the movie...Make Love, Not War...Excelsior

              Definitely a great movie. There was no way to satisfy me in resolving Infinity War. I think they did the best they could do. And I am okay with how they did it. There were very few slow points. And most of it was a great action movie that encompassed an onslaught of stars and characters.

                I finally saw it last night, I found it a bit long to be honest but it was a good ending to an amazing era of films. My daughter and son were both somewhat emotional and it made sense, they've always had these movies, they are childhood to them.

                Other than a few spoilers that snuck into my subconscious (one was very subtle but still...) I didn't know what was going to happen and that was enjoyable.

                It's bittersweet, I loved this era but I don't have much interest in going forward. I'm not complaining, these people made a tremendous amount of films and I'm happy to have them but on the same token, what's left isn't going to get my butt into a theatre seat. Guardians 3 being the one exclusion, I'll go see that.

                  That sums up my feelings quite nicely. I got a little fatigued and I still haven't seen the last four Marvel Movies prior to this release. However, I do plan on watching "Infinity War" ahead of taking in a matinee for "End Game" this weekend and I'll probably be content to sit it out from here on out with the exception of "GOG3".

                    it's a bit premature to say you will sit out the rest, as other than Spidey FFH we don't really know what is next. I mean we know there is Dr Strange 2, BP 2, GOTG 3 but we don't know what they will be building with it. they have done an amazing job thus far so I am more than willing to see what the plan is for phase 5

                      Hate to bump a thread, but as far as premature to say what I said....I still haven't seen a Marvel Movie since "Thor: Ragnarok". And I missed "Spiderman: Homecoming" in the middle of all of that. I didn't bother to watch any of the last several Marvel movies, even on TV.....so a year later, the fatigue remains.

                      It was reasonable to pooh-pooh what I said, but I don't think you realize how serious I was when I said I was fatigued.

                        I occasionally just rewatch the Endgame battle. Easily one of the biggest fist-pumping moments in movie history, and VERY well deserved.

                          I would agree there! Ragnarok is by far one of my favorites along with GOTG.

                            As fatigued as I am I did go see the Spider-Man movie when it came out, it was a "Date night" kind of thing. The experience wasn't good, kids next to me texting and talking the whole movie (until I yelled at them) and well, I found the movie good, not great. They're all home theatre experiences from now on.

                              ^You guys are turning into grumpy old men.

                              Seriously, ALL of these movies may be home theatre experiences from now on...for EVERYONE.

                              These movies will continue to be events for us. I don't see burnout or fatigue ever kicking in with me, personally. Now, the CW TV series...I haven't watched an episode since Crisis. They kind of wrote their own exit, in a lot of ways. I'm sure I'll catch up at some point, but I am kind of burned out with them, although I'm looking forward to Stargirl.
