And with how the super serum affects him, who knows just how fuckin' far into the future he went before returning... "I wanna make sure this shit works out." Probably had the opportunity to have sex with four generations of Carters.

I look at it that the super soldier serum doesn't make you immortal, but seriously extends lifespan. This makes sense since if he fought in WWII that would mean he was around 20 years old in 1943, he gets frozen (for argument sakes we'll say that pauses aging and the Serum is what let's him survive it). He get's woke up in 2008 or so, and goes to 2024 (remember the 5 years later bit in endgame). So he's now biologically around 35-36 now. He goes back and lives a life with Peggy Carter until she dies (let's say she makes it to 80, that puts alternate timeline in around 2008 conveniently) So that's another 60 years, so he's now around 96. I would pay real honest Yangbucks to look at good as he did at the end of this movie at 96. So I'll say the Serum helped out his longevity.....

Saw it last night. Somehow I completely missed the girl power scene. Like, I saw it, but didn't even notice it was all female characters. It might have been that I was distracted by the moth chick who doesn't really do anything.

Anyway, my 12 year old niece lost her shit. Which I found interesting that girls enjoy superhero movies so much (she did dress up as an Iron Man ballerina for Halloween when she was like 5 though). She started fist pumping when everyone came through the portals, and she bawled for like 20 plus minutes when Iron Man died.

I've been reading all the posts since the movie released, and no one mentioned that with Cap they said "he blew past the timeline" or something like that. Which made me think there's a Captain America sometime in the future.

The part about timeline with Cap that you mentioned is Banner stating that Cap didn't return via the travel pad at the exact time they expected.

What's evil is if you had all five infinity stones, YOU COULD JUST QUADRUPLE ALL THE RESOURCES IN THE UNIVERSE. You could just increase the supply instead of genociding half the demand.

This was probably brought up back in the Infinity War thread -- but what exactly did Thanos accomplish by halving the population? Earth, for example, would have been reduced to 1970s population level. Which means in under ~50 years we (and most likely the universe as a whole) would be back to where it was. Talk about the "inevitable"...

His idea was that by reducing the population to half they'd realize how bad it was at a higher population and take measures to limit resource use or population growth. Basically he wanted people to learn from their mistakes.

Could also change reality so resource consumption was always directly proportionate to the size of the population.

they were trying to bring the gauntlet into the quantum tunnel in the van in order to reset everything, stopping thanos. except that's a silly idea because they hadn't set the van up to DO anything... like, captain marvel was trying to fly straight into the tunnel... i know she's girlpowerful, but there's no reason to believe she'd survive the trip much less end up going where she wanted to go

Could have been the ending we all hoped for.

Just saw it. It was good, but not great. Certainly not on Infinity War's level. If not for the emotional connection to the characters for over a decade the movie would have been a 4/10 at best.

Nothing was worse than the ridiculous, pandering girl power moment though. Literally 5 minutes of screen time before that scene, they had Captain Marvel do her shit and completely destroy Thanos' capital ship BY HER FUCKING SELF. If that isn't empowering and badass, then I don't even know what we're doing with movies anymore. Then, 5 minutes later, they step all over their own dicks (pussies too, so that I'm being equal opportunity about it) by implying that she needs some sort of escort when she can just blaze on and fly straight through them like an upgraded human torch for the sole reason of having a SJW moment that will destroy the rewatchability of the fight scene for all time. Oh, and as a funny end cap to the whole thing, after the rest of the girl squad does each of her own unique, snowflake thing CAPTAIN MARVEL STILL JUST FUCKING FLIES STRAIGHT THROUGH THEM LIKE SHE COULD HAVE AT ANY OTHER GODDAMN MOMENT.

It's all so tiring.

Is time travel a narrative clusterfuck just by definition? Sure.

Was the Girl Power moment eye-rollingly ham-fisted? Yep (although, they did at least manage to use Captain Marvel the proper amount, and not have her take over the show).

But honestly, I don't really care. That was a good fucking conclusion to the story of the Avengers. It's rare as hell for a piece of entertainment to really move me emotionally, but I can admit that I had a bit of a lump in my throat during the whole end of the movie.

She's fought and used Tony's armor before in Iron Man 3. Plus it's not beyond the imagination that she has used armor or at least practiced with one in the 5 years. Or you can just consider all run by the suit AI. Like Spidey's Kill Mode.

Seems pretty obvious CM gonna be flying through the galaxy and randomly wander into IM like the Gaurdians did with Thor. Theyll probably have some quirky interaction where IM makes fun of CM being out of the loop and sarcastically catching her up. $5 says theres a beeper joke.

So where can I cash in my internet bucks? Was 99% correct aside from the quirky remark.

Also seeing diversity hire Valkyrie be made queen of Asgard rustled every last jimmy I had.
