I think the subtext of this video is Jenny is bitter about the Tower of Terror being replaced by the Guardians of the Galaxy ride.
louie2drinks The ride got replaced?!? Please tell me you're joking 😭
louie2drinks 😕😕😕... the tower... of... terror?
Sean Wilson It's a classic ride and in the california Disneyland they renovated it to be Guardians of the Galaxy themed
After watching Guardians of the Galaxy 2, I'm sure the Tower of Terror will be intact.

"Hes dead but at least theres a baby" is literally what happens in endgame
@STM i’m very confused. like i understand everything you’re saying i’m just confused as to why it’s a reply to this comment lol
@STM cool
@@danielemazzali9810 I found J.K Rowling's alt. Hello Joanne!
I'm confused. I thought "Literally" meant something else. Because the movie i watched he had a 5 year old daughter before he died. There was no surprise baby after he died.
@@PoopaChallupa but the concept of him dying but there being a kid still happens
when I saw this opening night, a dude in the back row shouted "not my boy!" when Spider-Man started to die and I thought it was so funny! I wish I could see every movie with that man.
Mbmbam fan?
Must be a Sony exec LOLOL
Was that jacksepticeye?
I was not that man but spiritually we are the same
I hate obnoxious moviegoers, like people who talk the whole time. But I love people who say like one thing out loud with perfect comedic timing.
Reached the end of the video and realised she had said "Hawkeye" not "Hot Guy" and I had just accepted that there was a significant nameless hot guy in the film
She could have meant Phil Coulson, who was also heinously written out of this film :P
Get your thirsty head out the gutter woods.😂
Played by Billy Herrington
Phil Coulson hot?
She couldn't get away with that. There's too many hot guys in this film.
Two minutes in I suddenly realized the large pillow behind you was a gigantic porg and my head jolted back in the same manner it would to a jump scare.
Frostything I always think it's an orca
why does everyone hate porgs? I don't even know what they are
my same reaction but at minute 12, I´m not a fast guy.

I looked it up, if the snap actually happened it would set us back to early 1970s population levels, so Thanos' big plan would be undone in about 50 years.
Thanos' whole plot isn't good because he's right, it's good because he's motivated
It would be smarter from him to snap 75% of women out of existence and 25% of men. Can't have babies if there's not enough women... and that would put the remaining women in a risky situation, but I doubt that Thanos with his Voldemort levels of planning and his lousy moral compass would care.

"Loki dies like a dog! Its harsh, but also funny!"
*hits subscribe*
LOLOLOLOL
Then Infinity War directed by Russos ...dies like a dog! Its harsh, but unfunny!
Sad now ...
I took my little brother to see this movie and he didn't immediately recognize the captain marvel symbol at the end, so out of confusion he said "is that scientology? Are they gonna be saved by scientology?" out loud in the middle of the theater
That would make a way more interesting sequel
Gwyneth H I'm guessing that generated some laughs among those around you? I certainly would have laughed.
The next movie is gonna be all about an invasion of wingless DC-8s from the planet Teegeeack.
The man-animal will find its favorite food!!!
I love your brother
I'm legit going to die when Jenny is 90 years old and still doing videos like this, because time is relative but sass is absolute.
"Time is relative but sass is absolute."
You are a god.
I often wonder what some of these UA-camrs will be doing in their old age.
Yes indeed her comedy is all tone and sass
You could say "Sass is inevitable."
THOR IN RAGNAROK: **loses eye, symbolically completing his quest for wisdom associated with Oden's eyelessness in Norse mythology**
THOR IN INFINITY WAR: **finds robot eye, pops it in, ready to go**
THOR IN RAGNAROK: **loses hammer cuz he doesn't need it anymore**
THOR IN INFINITY WAR: **gains an axe cuz why the heck not**
the russo brothers kinda wasted taika's symbolism ):
Learning you are more than just a hammer doesn't mean you won't ever need a big hammer-axe
Like, think of school. Maybe you blame yourself for bad grades, but then you learn: it doesn't actually decide your worth. But boy do you still need to fucken study
@@zaharac.8832 They kind of did that with literally every single character's stories, too. Every single hero had to change to fit their narrative, and it wasn't even a good one.
I don’t think there are any characters that the Russos changed for the worst. Cap, Tony, and Thor didn’t really have great arcs before Civil War, and I think changing a character’s direction for a story when they had no direction before is a good thing.
@@aidanzimmerman tony had pretty good arcs throughout and you could argue that caps arc all along was he was a man out of his time. no matter how much he tried to adjust, no matter what mission he took part in, he wasnt where he belonged.
thor doesnt have like any development and it seems like the one he did have in ragnorok was really undone by the end of endgame. got his hair back, hamaxe, and eye.
the whole gomora and peter storyline was rushed and missed a lot of points that shouldve been brought up in the stand alone gatg 3 film like peter coming back to earth or his and gamoras romance. they never kissed in the gtag films for a reason. in 2 they realized theyre both really messed up people who cant get into a relationship right now. in iw though they kiss, she says she loves him and all that gamora build up is gone when he chucked her off a cliff. worst mistake of the two films
The way I took the whole "Thanos actually loves Gamora" thing (because I still refuse to believe there's anything good about their relationship) is that he genuinely 100% thinks he loves her and thinks he is doing his best with their relationship. The thing about abusive people is that the way they act is the only way they know how to "love" others. It's not actual love, it's not caring or nurturing or uplifting, but it's the only way Thanos knows how to love - cruelly, violently, delusionally. I mean just look at the way he's trying to solve the whole "overpopulation" problem. He genuinely thinks he's doing the right thing when it's absolutely the most cruel way to go about it. Same goes for his relationship with Gamora.
Well ..yeah.
I still hate how people identified with Thanos and found his rushed lore compelling when it wasn't important until the Infinity War.
@@vingram100 Thanos did nothing wrong.
When you crack a smile at the thought of sacrificing someone you 'love'... I'd call that a disqualifier.

@@nataliaquiroga4015 I'm not impressed or cheering for them. It's a UA-cam comment. I actually hate Disney some times. I was just stating facts.
I love how Jenny's catch phrase is "so it's fine". What a perfect passive aggressive insult of anything and everything. Just another example of her sarcastic brilliance.
When Gamora got thrown of the cliff my friend leaned next to me and whispered "Yeet."
This is the best thing.
In the theater during Fellowship of the Ring when Boromir got shot for the final time and was dying, my buddy leads over and in his best Ace Ventura voice whispers, "Three darts is too muuuuch...!"

"On Earth, wiping out 50% doesn't even set us that far back" - she's right, it only sets us back to about 1970 according to World Bank statistics, or half a century. Never heard Thanos being accused of doing a shitty job at genocides before.
Thanos was NEVER genocidal. He was delusional in the comics. In the films, he's .... he's a raisin.
Yea, not even including all the religions that would hammer the idea of breeding to replenish, it might actually make us WORSE off.
What thanos SHOULD gave done was just reduce all love birthrates. Give human women 1 period/year instead of 12, population growth limited with no death

"sometimes people are dolls." Randomly pops into my head from time to time and I start to laugh increasingly manically. And there is no great way to explain the context here.
my favorite jenny line ever
And you don't know why
I just realized she has post credit scenes.
I have been watching her for months and never realized this.
Another reason to rewatch.
This is why you let credits play out and read the comments in the meantime.
Wait what she actually does? Holly hell thank you.
Because she's secretly a Marvel character. Duh.
Derek Cardwell Infinity War II leaked script: Jenny comes in and trolls Thanos to death.
Gamora represents his accomplishment, his triumph.
She is HIS trophy, and he loves his trophy, not his "daughter".
Thanos doesn't love Gamora, he loves himself.
JackDManheim you're a better writer than the staff of infinity war
+Macaroni and Cliches he's explaining what's in the movie
I think Marvel does a pretty good job of exploring difficult parent-child relationships, especially in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. And yeah, as someone who's experienced a similar thing, it is possible for an abusive parent to love the child not for who they are, but what they see of themselves in them.
@@AnalogSystem that is how I read it as well. I am all for films exploring complicated family dynamics, but Infinity War gave me this weird feeling in my stomach because it made me feel like it was trying to say that he hurt her, he abused her, he took her entire family from her and destroyed her home and forced her to kill her siblings but he loved her so it is _understandable._ Idk. They should have spent more time, or explained it in a better way. Atleast that is how I feel.
Of course I understand that abusive parents can still love you, but the message was kinda muddled. Still, Gamora's arc was my favourite part. Good lord I love her character so much now. Please let her not be permanently dead lol. The actress was soooo good!
Arunima Tiwari I don’t think her death will stick, but I think Loki is permanent
I laughed when the credits said Thanos will return. I was just like, way to rub it in.
It reminded me of how they did that at the end of every James Bond movie. "Thanos will return next Fall in Octopussy".
I cant get over Rod Sirling voice "that's weird, right? Sometimes people are dolls."
You think she's joking about the whole Twilight Zone thing. Then it happens, and comes back, and keeps coming back.
We've reached the point where people get more emotionally affected by purple bruce willis ripping Dr Strange's magic blanket than the death of Superman
Time to give the DC rights to Marvel.
The cloak had more charisma than every character in the DC movies combined.
Oh god guys they were both shit movies ok.
That cloak is a sassy ride-or-die accessory that not only saves Doctor Strange multiple times but makes him look extra wizardry. It deserves all the love the Marvel fans give it.
MyssBlewm It’s a magical cape.... at what point do marvel fans say “this strains credulity” because I hit that point when I was expected to believe a Central African nation had the capabilities of creating a space age utopia.
I also gasped at the blanket tearing? I haven't even seen Doctor Strange but like damn it just looks expensive? And sentient. My materialistic heart stopped.
Hannah Lee Kidder I gasped at the blanket tearing
I gasped because the blanket moving in a human like way made me puzzle over the ethics of tearing him. Like essentially he’s just ripping him in half. Can the blanket feel pain?
His cape is basically the carpet from Aladdin, except also a shield. It is the best character in Doctor Strange, easily.
Dr. Strange and his Snuggie of Power
It’s a cape, please.
"Girl, learn to read the room"
That destroyed me lmao I'm sorry it probably wasn't meant to be funny but your cynicism gives me LIFE
It's supposed to be funny
gamora: maybe you could use the gauntlet to make half the population infertile.
Thanos: No! I have already done my genocide monologue
Or quadruple resources or change people's psychologies or ... get better writers and directors SIGH
@Chan Thorpe hol’ up. are you saying the villain’s beliefs are wrong? a warlord who’s been massacring planets for... decades? centuries? is obsessed with an idea that isn’t actually rational?
what shitty writing
@@zurichRevolts Yes, insanity in villains can be done well (Azula, for example), but in this case it just feels dumb.
@FreshlyBakedLePain
i didn’t say anything about insanity, and azula’s mental state doesn’t really have anything to do with her motivations. she’s cruel and selfish because she was raised to be that way, and she breaks down when she loses because she bought into the propaganda that she’s unbeatable and deserves to rule the world.
the point of thanos’s motivation is not that he’s right, it’s just that it makes sense in his own head and he’s not just evil for the hell of it.
he was already doing the genocides before he decided to go after the infinity gauntlet. his mission statement for decades or who knows how long was “kill half of everybody”. he didn’t think it through further than “this will let you do that more easily”.
a character making a decision that you disagree with is not a plot hole. the movie explains his own reason for making that decision and clearly positions him as being in the wrong
@@zurichRevolts azula isn't just raised that way. It's also that she has it in her genes. In her father's side, she's predisposed to madness and cruelty. In her mother's side, she's predisposed toward serenity and kindness. Zuko's story is about choosing to follow in his mother's footsteps(and his uncle's). Azula is a foil to his character and shows what he could be instead. Among other things
I cried at the end of Infinity War, but that’s just because I’m a huge nerd for this series and they can manipulate my emotions. Outside the theater, I was like, “Well of course a lot of those deaths aren’t going to stick”, but in the moment, I was just wrapped up in the story. I’m a sappy sap, I totally own it.
By the time everyone started melting, all I could think was OMG I have GOT to pee.
Just because you know the large story arc, it doesn't take out the emotion of the scenes. These movies have built these characters up.
Me too
Same
Same bro
You called Tony's death a whole year before End Game.
To be honest, it was pretty easy to guess.
Very wrong about the order of events, though. Baby, THEN death. Still, good guess.
I thought everyone knew he is going to die it was pretty obvious? He started the MCU and they needed a big death to close this chapter. Plus, Robert Downey Jr. is getting old and he is asking for insane amounts of money from them.
I would be surprised if he didn't die.
Everyone guessed Tony’s death a year before end game.
@@Sheuto Nah i assumed it would be Cap, since he died in Civil War in the comics.
Peter Dinklage was representing the dwarves of Norse mythology that were dwarfs compared to Giants.
So that's where elder scrolls got it from
And lord of the rings and classic fantasy also pulls from Norse mythology as well as other myths and fables
Wow, this really did spoil the Twilight Zone
Dakota Mew And what’s worse, It also spoiled an 2000 episode of Felicity in which JJ Abrams replicated that same twilight zone episode. Wherever the MCU goes, you can be sure Felicity was there first.
TheGadgetPanda I'm so happy that I know exactly what episode you're referring to
after watching the whole video I have no idea what she means or what she is talking about
edit: I am a big fan of jenny though, don't get confused guys
All I took away from this was that there were some perilously placed beverages and a very comfortable Porg.
I zoned out for a few second and zoned back in to her talking about a fishing hole and lemonade
RabgoProductions ... Don't feel bad. I doubt she knows what she means or is talking about, either.
But it was somehow pretty entertaining
She makes perfect sense if you can take off the rose colored glasses and view this very flawed movie impassively.
I swear, the giant porg in the background gets bigger with every video.
I'm just glad he's finally getting comfortable with his left flipper resting gently under his head.
Thats where she puts the corpses of her victims...
The Porg must feed....
He's feasting
But is he as b i g as Jake?
As someone who hasn't seen Infinity War, and has only seen a few Marvel movies, but has seen every episode of The Twilight Zone (my favorite show!), I loved this video. Although I will say I love Five Characters in Search of an Exit. Not every story has to have a moral!
Five characters in search of an exit is my shizza
@@aaronroberts5272 Damn right!
Five characters i've heard was one of the widely panned ones? but i dont get it because it's my favorite episode lol
@@DuckReconMajor It's a classic! Had no idea it wasn't widely beloved till a few years ago.
i literally put “watch jenny nicholson infinity war video again” on my calendar after i booked tickets to endgame
So the next movie will be called Avengers: To Infinity And Beyond?
awesomestuff81

Lol. Yes, It all makes sense!
Going into the movie, I specifically said, "As long as Loki, Peter, and Bucky don't die, I think I can deal."

@@Treyworld that was their marry fuck kill list
Okay but you knew they were coming back right?
Loki really bounced back
"Does anyone else feel like Thor: Ragnarok was ruined by this movie?"
ME. ME. ME.
Thor Ragnarok ends with them encountering Thanos' ship. How did people miss this?
@@darksaint0124 Yup, they were already doomed.
peachjedi That’s sort of the point, though. Thanos is a giant middle finger to practically everything having to do with the Avengers. He breaks the rules of the universe, both canonically and thematically.
In Thor: Ragnarok, Thor learns that he is not the god of hammers, that losing his eye ironically gave him even more perspective, and that Asgard is a people, not a place.
But Thanos comes around, and suddenly Thor needs an EVEN BIGGER hammer, gets a robot eye, and now at least half of the people of Asgard are dead.
Hell, Star Lord’s entire character arc and ethos are made totally invalid by Thanos. He keeps Peter from murdering Gamora and stopping him from getting the Soul Stone, murders Gamora anyway to get the Soul Stone, and then gets him to lash out recklessly, (something that has become Starlord’s de facto superpower) which results in the death of half of everybody.
Thanos don’t give a fuck.
@@theoneandonlymichaelmccormick It seems like this is less "breaking things thematically to emphasize the destruction of Thanos" and more of "these films are obviously penned by different people and we didn't have time/didn't want to bother sitting down and discussing how this can all fit together thematically in a satisfying way", like true comic book fashion.
LR31O Well, considering how they’ve kept a coherent plot over the course of several different films with several different writers before, I’d say that’s a little dismissive.
"Abusive parents who kill their children for magic rocks still love them." -Infinity War
"Abusive parents who say they love their children but then sacrifice them for magic stones capable of bringing back anyone from the dead, and then do not bring back the child they sacrificed, still love them" - Infinity War.
Schalk Coetzee 1. no evidence that the gauntlet can do that.
2. Who’s to say that resurrecting Gamorah wouldn’t lose him the soul stone?
Lord Parbr - 1) Ignoring the soul stone, The time stone can change the past without affecting the holder. It has been shown to do so many times. This means he stays unaffected while time bends around him - thus going back to before she died, while still remaining his 'present self' with the stone.
2) I will ignore the fact that you are the one playing with hypotheticals here - and make another point. He clearly does not know anything about the stone. This was proven when he did not know of the test, where it was, or how to get it untill it was shown to him. Since he actually loved her according to the movie, it would make sense for him to at least try to get her back. He has no reason to think it would be taken back if he brings her back. Especially when done so with another stone. The fact that he does not even try means he never intended to bring her back, even if he had the power. It called into question the validity of him even having the stone.
Schalk Coetzee 1. If he used the time stone to bring her back, that likely would have undone the entire trade. After all, the soul stone wasn’t using the time stone, Thanos was. So there’s no telling whether the soul stone would have been affected by Thanos’s reversing time.
2. The whole point of the soul stone scene was that Thanos believed that his task was more important than his own desires. It wasn’t something he wanted to do, it was something he thought he *needed* to do. As he had no reason to think that the obviously magical protection around the soul stone could be cheated, he wasn’t going to jeopardize it to save 1 person, no matter how important to him she may have been. Especially given that the stones don’t make him omniscient, so there’s no way he could choose who was going to die when he snapped his fingers. It was entirely possible that he would risk losing one of the stones to bring her back when Gamora was just going to die again anyway at the finger snap
3. Thanos’s main character flaw is that he’s myopic. He’s obsessively focused on his goal of wiping out half the life in the universe. It probably never occurred to him that the gauntlet might be able to bring her back
Lord Parbr - 1) The stones have the power to affect one another and are subject to the laws the others govern over i.e. the mind stone being restored after being broken. Based on how the time stone has been used - the user can make themselves immune to the effects of time moving forwards or backwards - as well as immune to changes made in the past. So the soul stone is affected by the time stone, and is subject to its power like the mind stone was - and thus would not be able to escape that change. That is using in-universe logic. You are providing a hypothetical, and using that to justify a plot hole.
2) You are saying that he has no power over who lives and who dies, but he clearly stated that only half of each planet would be taken. Not half the universe - otherwise it might kill 100% of some planets and 0% of others. If he has the ability to not only single out every planet within the entirety of reality - including the ones he did not know about - and then kill off a perfect half of them on random, then he must have far more control over the action than you are suggesting. This is not a set power of the glove. It is not a built-in switch. The act is bound to his will. He determined the parameters.
2.1) Even if he felt he needed to, and might not have wanted to, the stone validated what he did. The stone is presented as being wise, and that it's protections are magical and complex to test the wannabe user - yet gives itself over to the person who intends to destroy half of all life. If the stone's defences are so nuanced and complex why does it not account for that? If the stone can't be cheated, but it also can't determine between right and wrong - then what was the fucking point of the test in the first place?
3) He is shown to spend ages doing nothing. He is shown taking no initiative of his own but waiting, scheming, and generally being inactive. Considering how fast he actually managed to get them on his own - the idea that he is singularly focussed on the task, and has been forever is absurd. He is presented as a brilliant madman that spends decades destroying and recruiting an army, a wealth of technology, resources and 'parenting' - only now suddenly he can't use the gauntlet to its full power. The gauntlet which he obsessed over for how long, the stones that supposedly only he can wield effectively. Years of planning and research and now suddenly he forgets what they are capable of? He can't be entirely focused on one thing, and do literally anything else for forever - and then when actually acting on the one thing he was supposedly focussed on - suddenly become inept. That is inconsistent.
I named my fridge after you
Hattie Francis I bet you open and close it a lot
Nicholson fridge aw yeah
Is it because it belongs in the kitchen?
Hattie Francis thank you for this laugh I needed
I thought the concept that Thanos was killing off half of everyone for "population control" to be pretty silly. I mean, if he's all-powerful, couldn't he just like, promote renewable energy and sustainable farming? Because the population will just grow back to the original size eventually.
If his population control is 50% of the population of the universe, and there's 2 planets of equal population, couldn't one be entirely wiped out and the other entirely unaffected? Does the snap have different settings to account for this?
Yes. Thanos agrees to spare Tony and does. He also lives himself.
his intentions are to balance each world, so each world will be subject to the 50/50
It is each world gets 50% because he is a psycopath that needs to prove he was right when he lost Titan
If everyone had a coin flips chance to live, would it be possible that everyone on earth survive? Technically, yes. But in reality, no. Statistics seem to work themselves out
@@AURush95 This made me wonder about the odds. I searched and came across this: "If everyone on Earth flipped coins one hundred times per second since the Big Bang there’s still less than one chance in 400 that any one of them will have gotten 100 heads." So yeah, given that we're looking for about 7.6 billion heads on the first try that seems... fairly unlikely.
Peter Parker didn't know there was going to be a Spiderman 2 though. He was scared and desperate to live and that was sad. Because watching a character experiencing an emotion invokes an emotional response for the audience.
professorvanderjuice Thing is it was mostly down to the acting talent of the Spider-Man kid that sold it. As soon as it’s over though you realize how stupid this whole fucking plot point was.
Through his scene all I was thinking was wow, Spidey is so powerful he manages to rip extra time from the gauntlet cause noone else fades so slowly. Huh.
Yes but also he was the only one who died so slowly and the moment was nice because Tom is a good actor, but I was already taken out of it. Also it's clear they wanted to ham it up with extra drama.
foxyproxy123 Speaking of which why didn’t Dr. Khan portal off Thanos arm?
He only acted like that because Tony whispered 'were not giving you a sequel'.

Thank you for this comment.
Thanos at his farm as he vaporises yet another confused trespasser: "Who keeps wishing all these damn people into my cornfield?"
"Yessss...kill more...kill them ALLL" - I swear there's one moment in every one of your videos hat makes me legitimately laugh out loud, that's amazing
You: Loki dies like a dog! It was funny!
Me: I cried for 3 days straight but I respect your opinion. 😭
I'm confused by the number of people who question her commentary on Infinity War by citing the fact that she liked The Last Jedi. People can have differing opinions and interpretations of media. If everyone thought the same thing all the time that would be silly. And being nitpicky about small things doesn't mean you hate the whole. You can be critical of something and still like it. Heck, even love it.
Also don't see how it's her refusing to say anything bad about The Last Jedi because of corporate reasons because last I checked Disney owns both studios and heck. But I mean I guess it's the Internet.
I'm mostly confused how someone can talk so much about a movie and missing so many points. Ie. the giant Dwarf is supposed to be half a joke, half a commentary. There is no sign that the Collector is alive, in fact, it looks like he died, but Marvel left a backdoor open. Also, what else are the Avengers supposed to do than fighting? They are literally fighting not just for their own live, but for half of the universe. And don't get me started on everything she said about Thanos.
this entire video is a giant shitpost, and whether one picks up on that or not is a pretty good measurement of one's sense of humor. I mean, it ends with her suggesting the next Avengers film and Toy Story 4 are in fact the same film.
Or it is a good measurement of the quality of the joke...if it even is one.
swanpride hey you think you could grab something off the top shelf for me
Dr. Strange enhancing his speeches with interpretive dance is the best hot take 🔥🍞
I love how a good chunk of this video is just a recap of the twilight zone
For a second there I was like "Yeah I'd love to see what they'll do with the Green Lantern Corps too."
Then I realized it's the wrong franchise.
The Nova Corps and the Green Lantern Corps are both pastiches of E.E. Smith's 1950s _Lensmen_ book series.
I think the reason people were so sad about the character "deaths" is because the acting of everyone in that scene was so good that it made you feel immersed in the movie and forget about the real world.
I'm not gonna lie, if this hot take turns out to be true, then it might just be the greatest long con ever pulled off.
Thanos kills everyone and just turns to the camera and says “welcome to the twilight zone”
he then gives a rod serling style monologue and the movie ends.
Here’s the deaths I think are going to stick: Thanos
Wow didn’t know Jenny was a clairvoyant
On top of that, she predicted Tony dying and leaving behind a kid
She knows how a story should be shaped and she's really good at it
Mike Stoklasa’s Star Trek references vs Jenny’s Twilight Zone references.
TWO ENTER. ONE LEAVES.
I absolutely loved the ending. It sold the entire movie for me. They could have ended it with an inspirational and cheesy speech full of hope and optimism e.g by Capt. America, setting up the the sequel. But instead the final shot of the movie is when Thanos is sitting on a hill, facing the camera and he smiles into the Sun. Happy and content with himself.
Great Ending.
Sebastian Koil I'm guessing Chthon had the mind stone in the past and knew how to destroy it, and his nephew Agamotto had the Time Stone given to Chthon's slightly less intelligent sister Oshtur.
We know Wanda ain't powered by the mind stone because she still had powers after she destroyed it, and because Kevin Feige said so. She's converting Chthonic magic (which Strange doesn't know anything about) into telekinesis.
Quite clearly, he had just woken up from a dream, all of the MCU is just in a snow globe on his tree.
Oh, that ending. I thought you meant the ending where all of these superheroes die and we're supposed to think that Marvel is daring to kill off all of these main characters even though we know that they are just going to come back to make more gratuitous action movies. But, no, you meant the VERY ending. That sold it for you? Was that the point at which you were convinced that his stupid reason for destroying half of all the life in the universe actually made sense?
First off, it doesn't matter that the characters don't know that the dead will come back. I don't see how it can resonate with the audience, as it seems to have. I'm just saying that it's portrayed as if the writers are being bold by killing these characters off and trying to surprise people, but it's pointless when you know everything will be fine for Spidy and Black Panther, etc.
I understand Thanos' reason for what he did. It is still stupid that he was convinced that he should do it. I can see that he might want to do that for his own planet, but the whole universe? Every planet and every sentient being is heading towards the same inevitable disaster? How does he even know this, and again, why does he care? It's not even remotely compelling, even from a psychopath's perspective. We still don't understand his motivation. That's different from his reason. Was there some kind of traumatic event that he experienced that led him to this, or is he just your run of the mill philanthropist? In the end, invincible villains are completely uninteresting, so who cares what his actual motives are?
Marley James you make good points. As you acknowledge, people bought that thanos believed his own motivation, and they bought that spiderman believed he was dying. It's hard to do better than that, so maybe you just like serious nuanced movies for adults and not Marvel
I remember watching infinity war in theaters and while everyone was evaporating I was just sitting there with this cynical expression thinking "the fact that these characters are lucrative prevents you from actually hurting them and this stops all emotional investment in your franchise as well as making your story worse, I sure hate capitalism" but when I heard that ripping noise from the cape I was 100% ready to cry
the gamora dying part is so funny she gets so happy because "thanos doesn't love anyone so it's over no gem" that she almost breaks the fourth wall and says well that's it folks
Jenny, laughing: ...adults were gasping and screaming and wailing in misery at these character deaths
me, having watched the movie 4 times, still sobbing: i know right ?! hAHAHAhaha,, silly people *screams in pain*
Honestly, if she had allowed herself to get invested in the movie and the characters, she would have cried too. Because than she would actually care, no matter what logic tells her.
"if she had allowed herself to get invested in the movie and the characters, she would have cried too"
Or you know, she's not stupid and knows that everyone will be back for the next movie.
Do you cry every time a character is offscreen for a few minutes? Because that's literally what's happening here.
@@riley8385 i doubt those adults thought that. I mean they anounced 2 movies even before releasing this one
@@riley8385 They should also know that when someone plays peek-a-boo with them, SPOILER the person doesn't actually disappear.
The dusting is so well done though, completely silent with only the thunder as it's soundtrack, with little details like Starlord's eyes going red or Scarlet Witch smiling, and of course Spider-Man really sold the scene.
Hey, it's kid Scarlet Witch!:)
Jason Bean Omg, you’re right.
I was the person crying during the end. I'm fully aware that they aren't really dead, but it was the thought of it.
This. Even though I know he'll be back, seeing baby Groot kick the bucket was just plain hard to watch.
Knowing the comic storyline I was like "..." but MAN, SPIDEY STILL GOT ME SO BAD.
Amy Ann To be fair, they are actually dead according to the Russos, regardless of the fact that most of not all of them will come back
It's emotionally engaging because the actors sell the hell out of it and we care about the characters.
Like yeah, as fans most of us know it's almost certainly not gonna be permanent, but that doesn't mean seeing them die isn't gonna be affecting.
I don't understand how it's supposed to be criticism. Either it's okay to have an emotional reaction to fiction, or it's not. There is no in between.
I don't, but I don't get emotional over fiction. I watch to see how things play out. But that's me.
I think it's a paradox to get the soul stone. If you have to sacrifice the thing/person you love the most, and you're actually willing to do it to gain power, you don't really love that person anyways. If you truly did you wouldn't be willing to sacrifice them for a magical stone.
Edit: it’s of course different with Hawkeye and black widow, cause they were only willing to do it because they wanted to save the lives of billions of other people, not because they wanted anything nefarious out of it. Ya know how in Harry Potter, only someone with the desire to find the philosopher’s stone without using it to live forever or become rich, can get it. It should have been set up so that if your intentions are to use the soul stone to kill half of existence (consequently making all of existence depressed), you shouldn’t be able to get it.
that’s not a paradox
I mean, he literally thinks he's doing it for the grater good.
He's wronng obviously, but it's not paradoxical to be willing to sacrifice what/who you lov eif you think it's in the best interest of the entire universe.
It just test your will and ambition, not your moral character... or maybe it only needs a soul and any random person dying there would do the trick, I mean, in _Endgame_ Clint clearly wanted to save Natasha and failed, but he still got the stone
@@tbbcch1039 so he loves/values the greater good over gamora.
@@anna-flora999 Well, no one said he had to lose what he loved MOST; just something he loved.
In any case, value and love are not interchangable concepts. He might value the greater good more, but that doesn't mean he loves it more.
Plus, sacrificing Gamora doesn't even necesarily mean he personally values the greater good more; just that in his twisted mind, he's just putting the best interest of others before his own. I mean, "sacrifice" often times involves losing something yourself to benefit others.
Part two predictions: after a timeskip Tony Stark already has a kid who is like a preteen, but in order to undo the snap he has to undo having the kid.
Gotta admit, Spider-Man’s death was heart wrenching for me. Tom Holland deserves serious props for that scene, because he ripped my heart out. Even knowing a lot of these deaths will be reversed did not help. I loved Infinity War, and my theater was utterly silent by the time the movie ended. I’ve never been in a theater that felt so much like a funeral. I even saw this woman getting a comforting hug from her male partner after we exited the bathroom. People were really upset, and I was right there with them. It was kind of a cool experience in a way, just being so in the moment and sharing heartache with strangers.
Still, always love your videos, even though I think Infinity War is my favorite Marvel movie so far.
I like the theory that he didn't feel so good because his lemon-and-lime sense told him what was about to happen beforehand, whereas everyone else was kinda just caught off-guard by it all.
Difference between silence and the audible screaming and wailing from adults that she’s talking about, and which also happened in my first screening. Be glad you didn’t get that in yours.
Ghost Helwig I felt the same way. My theatre was absolutely silent as we waited for the after-credit scene, and it definitely felt like we were all in the same place emotionally.
The worst thing about Infinity War and Endgame was that it made so many Marvel fans try and tell me that Thanos was actually a deep and nuanced character
Like the dude is set up as an corny cartoon villain in some end credits scenes, he’s described as nothing other than a cruel and abusive father who turned his children into soldiers, and his goal is to kill half of all living things. But yeah, Mantis told us he’s in “anguish” this is a really dee and nuanced character that I sooo sympathize with
he is deep and nuanced... compared to the rest of the mcu villains, theres only like 3 that have depth at all
@@MarsheIIo "compared to the rest of the mcu villains"
Not a high bar at all though
I kinda feel like the fact all the temporary deaths had any impact on an audience that should know better is a decent testament to how effectively this series has created an almost immersive attachment to a lot of these characters. Sure, you know that from a meta standpoint (the fact there's time magic, franchise obligations, etc) they'd never stay dead, but people don't wanna see these characters go through that, or see the survivors deal with that kind of scenario. You know it'll probably be all ok, but the characters don't and act accordingly. I think it's still a highly effective source of drama.
".....It's just like everytime I bring a boy home to meet my parents..."
😆😆😆😆
Superclutz that line got me too 😂
Okay but honestly the Spider-Man death was super heart wrenching, like sure, he’s not staying dead, but the desperation in his voice and the fear in his voice just broke into my house, killed my entire family, and proceeded to make me feel guilty about their deaths
I don’t think Red Skull was “qualified” so much as cursed.
I physically laughed out loud twice during this video.
"And you're like, girl, learn to read the room."
"At this point I'm just like reveling in it because the reactions are so good. I'm just like yeah, kill more. Kill them all!"
7:34 "and it's like GIRL read the room." LOL. And I do love all your analogies to the Twilight Zone :P
infinity war part 2: electric boogaloo
Babs Double Toasted fan?
i appreciate the scarlet witch cosplay!
I knew it was going to be okay, but I was still shook out of my mind seeing the tragedy and the saddness around people losing so many loved ones. Spiderman's death was really rough; Okoye's screams were heavy, Bucky saying "Steve" as he faded, and Cap's exhausted, distressed, and lost "...Oh god." all have imprinted themselves in my mind as utter tragedy. Yeah, we know the people will come back, but they don't. I definitely gasped.
Thanos plan is so incredibly stupid and I hate, hate hate it when people think it's good. It's basically him finding a really lazy and bad "solution" to a problem on one planet and then apllying it to all the others without even knowing anyting about them or thinking about the possible differences for a millisecond.
I mean if we look at earth there are several things we notice right away:
1) overpopulation is not the problem, bad distrubution and imperial colonisalist greed are the reason for people starving and for most wars. if you take away half the population, the power will still be in the same peoples hands and they will keep exploiting the others.
2) if you take away half the popultation, literally everything breaks apart. it's extremely naive to think that it's all just about material resources which we just don't have enough of, when in reality our wealth comes from competant work forces reproducing it constantly. imagine how quickly the global economy would fall apart, if suddenly half the people die. imagine the chaos and the political reaction to it.
Or maybe it is the trauma from half the population dying, the threat of Thanos cutting the population in half again, that fixes everything you are bitching about
@@Johncornwell103 So your theory is that the shared grieve would bring humanity closer together? What makes you assume that would be the case?
If we look at history, we can see a clear pattern: trauma, economic crisis and destabilization lead to fascism, war and madness. Look up the history of the Weimar Republic and how it turned into Nazi Germany. The humilition of losing the first world war and the allies taking away core regions of germany and austria alongside economic bondage were the slight to the german identity that Hitler exploited and the economic crisis of the 30ies was the source of desperation that really drove the Nazis rise to power forward.
After the second world war the allies rebuilt Germany and Austria and basically forgave them their crimes accepting them as economic and political partners, which lead to them becoming two of the most stable and rich democracies on the planet.
If we look at the profile of psychopaths and criminals it is often great trauma that lies at the core of their mental illness. Child abusers for example often got abused themselves.
From what I see, trauma and grievence almost always lead to their own circular reproduction and are seldom a great recipe for things getting better.
Oh and also: Sry for "bitching" about starving children, modern day slavery and senseless exploitative wars killing millions of innocent people. I guess all of that is just oversensitive nonsense for you.
@@iwontgiveyoumyinformation8895
Look at America post 9/11. For months everyone was one against a common enemy whether it was right or wrong.
Look how quickly antisemitism stopped being mainstream idea for decades in Europe after WW2.
Now imagine an enemy who KILLED HALF THE UNIVERSE Every God damn nation on the face of the earth, every god fucking planet in the universe would unite to get revenge against Thanos.
The only issue is Thanos is ALL POWERFUL. If you don't stop him before he snaps his hand, the universe would lose again.
You damn sure could bet the universe wouldn't miss to take down the mad titan.
It would cause a universal alliance the might last centuries
@@Johncornwell103 hmm. who knows. since it's a very theoretical scenario I can't say you are wrong, but I think the consequences of a complete global economic crash (with half the knowledge and workforce gone) are pretty unpredictable.
Also: What about climate change? A problem that could literally cause the planet becoming hostile to uninhabitable for the human race. One would think people would rally around that cause pretty quickly, but that's not whats happening at all.
Also: 9/11 lead to the Iraq war, killing over a hundred thousand civilians, probably leading to increased terrorism which lead to increased destabizisation of the US. Also the patriot act was a response to 9/11, taking away civil rights and shifting the US towards a police state.
Really one could argue, that all 9/11 did was causing a hysteria which allowed imperialist polititions to exploit and have the people on board for actions that would in the long run further contribute to their own destruction (not to mention the sorrow of many innocent people outside the us)
Edit: A few more points that came to my mind:
1) Many people are unaware that the stated goal of Osama Bin Laden was to draw the US into so many wars that they would collapse under their weight. He thought (rightfully) that this attack would perpetuate a circle of violence and lead to inner destabilization. So the unifying trauma of 9/11 made people, blinded by their rage, literally do exactly what the terrorists wanted them to
2) You are saying the new alliance might last centuries, but look at the US right now. One could very reasonably argue, that the consequences of 9/11 are a main factor in the current unpresidented division amongst the american people, the looming threat of democracy fully ending or even outright civil war.
@@iwontgiveyoumyinformation8895 Even the directors have said Thanos is a psychopath. What did u expect? him to save the world with a great plan.!!! Lmao.
I guess he couldn't use the Reality Stone to just create more resources and NOT kill trillions of people around the universe.
Apparently the Reality Stone just alters the appearance of reality; once it's out of range things go back to normal. Otherwise Mantis and Drax wouldn't've reconstituted themselves back in Knowhere.
I haven't put too much thought into this but couldn't that be bad. Like water is a resource and if you double it would that cause massive flooding. And an over population of animals and insects and so on. I guess you could increase the size of the planet but idk if that would have a negative effect on our gravity or some other cosmic shit. If you look at history for example the plague in Europe wiped out about half the population and from what I remember it was sort of a good thing because it helped the poor that were still alive get out of poverty because their craft became more valuable and nobility was also affected where it helped create a middle class for the first time
Shaun Cheah Thanos did say he liked Peter when it happened, he could have reconstituted Drax and Mantis out of respect for him.
I don't know what the rules are for the movie version, but in the comics the reality gem can do literally anything. Also, if the reality stone can only create illusions, wouldn't it be called the _illusion_ stone?
Or is the name part of the illusion? Ooh, meta.
Shaun Cheah The stone in the movie feels that way. The comic book reality stone literally warps matter.
The most nuclear of takes. No survivors.
"There's a snake in mah gauntlet!"
Gnome de Plume DAMN
This just showed up in my recommended, and I just had to pop by and say that seeing the words 'Infinity War Hot Take: 6 years ago' was absolutely soul-crushing.
I know i'm supposed to care about infinity war but tbh i'm mostly just sitting here worried about that drink spilling on the gentleman snake over there. I do appreciate that the bug man is drinking it though.
the attention span of a squirrel... BOTH OF YOU! 😒
boi that's Skippy the Jaywalker of Jupiter's Moons
We wouldn't want the drink to split that snoke in half...then we'd never learn the backstory.
the cup dissapeers half way through and just when you want to scream at the screen that the cup has gone it comes back as a bottle. the dramatic tension in this video is intense.
"YESSSS! Kill them all!" Lol. I love you Jenny.
I don't feel like Loki deserved to die like that.
We were getting such great character development out of him and it finally looked like he was coming into his own and figuring out his purpose in life but before we could get anything substantial out of him Marvel decided to crush him like a bug in the first few minutes of the movie.
I was more bummed out with his death than anyone else's.
Faith
No he wasn’t in my opinion he stole the space stone to get his greedy paws on more power. God of mischief to the end
AgeDrain But he didn't let Thanos kill Thor and instead risked his own life to try and kill him.
He usually puts himself before others and acts like a huge coward but this time he didn't.
Yeah, I'm sure he was probably gonna use the stone for selfish reasons but in the end, he sacrificed himself.
That's character development, and he deserved more of it.
Yeah, Loki's death bummed me out so much. Mostly because he's my favourite character in the MCU.
Loki killed a looooot of innocent people in his quest for power. He deserved worse.
AgeDrain
I'm not bummed out that he died.
I just wish his death was more brutal with a powerful lead up to it.
That whole "entering nations you have no right being in and wiping out half the population, only to then claim that they're now paradises thanks to you" just gives the movie a strong anti-imperialist vibe to me.
I love how your stuff animal is enjoying a drink next to you
I was so confused because not only was the symbol in the after credits the one for Captain Marvel and secondly I had to think long and hard about whether green lantern is Marvel or DC.
TheEllaDarling you fell for Jenny's greatest goof of all!
Thank you!!! Someone finally mentioned the issue I have with the 'Thanos loves Gamora' thing!
It made sense. I'm sorry but Thanos was a very well written character and was handled perfectly. When the guys at Red Letter Media are praising your villain, which is the one thing they typically don't like about Marvel movies, you know you're doing something right.
thegoodbrother246 I don't disagree at all, for literally the entire rest of the film other than that scene. Thanos was an excellent villain. It's just that one bit that felt contradicted by the context. Hell, the context worked, the idea that he loved her even though he treated her like that could have been a really interesting point, but I think it needed to touch on exactly what sort of father Thanos was. Just my opinion, obviously, and it totally doesn't damage him as a good villain.
thegoodbrother246 Perfectly is going a bit far. The earlier appearances of Thanos touched on the idea of him loving Gamora minimally, if at all.
"DO IT PETER. SHOOT HER. SHOOT HER!"
--Thanos
"wait so you're saying I have to kill her, the one person I care most about? What an agonizing turn of events!"
--Thanos like 20 minutes later 🙄
Yeah, exactly. But now, its subjective you see. Thanos ahd no problem letting Gamora die, but it was still a huge sacrifice for him to kill her......its not a contrivance at all.
I mean like, he knew he wasnt going to let peter kill her?
He purely did it to test Peters resolve
@@TheSquareheadgamer
Yeah. He was telling Peter to shoot her because he knew it wasn’t going to *do* anything.
That would truly be the most ambitious crossover in history.
The blanket was my favorite character
Apparently being in love with Death was too comic-booky for movie audiences...
"Yeeaaahhh keep going! Kill them all!"- Jenny in the movie theater
I like to imagine that she roared it at top volume, while everyone turned to look at her awkwardly, and then everyone went back to crying
i think mark ruffalo's floating head in the hulkbuster suit was the only effect that looked bad ... other than that i think everything looked very good
Mickey Valenz yeah that really stuck out for me. It is the lighting. Everyone else looks sunlit, but Bruce looks as though he is bathed in soft studio lights. I kind of feel as though I could fix it myself in post production. Maybe it really was a last minute decision to have banner instead of the other guy in that scene
Mickey Valenz Yeaah Mark Ruffalo! Aaaah?
I get the same feeling with Iron Man all the time now. I hate how they turned all those real suits into CGI, Black Panther too. In the static shots I mean, obviously during action it's fine to use CGI.
Why does nobody talk about this?
I agree. Iron Man Floating Head Syndrome has been a significant issue ever since Civil War.
I agree Tim
Reading the comments section kind of makes me want to gather the Infinity Stones myself.
Peter Dinklage will always be the surly guy from The Station Agent. Also that jacket is top notch.
nomeaknat No no no... he’s an angry elf.
Great Flick, but to Jenny's point, He was playing a character that was a Dwarf/Little Person...js...
J P Levasseur I thought it was funny that a midget was playing a Dwarf that is actually a giant.
Excellent jacket, even if it does seem to be smeared with axle grease.
No one ever believes me that _The Station Agent_ is a thing that actually exists and everyone should watch.
Didnt even read the comics and she knew they would introduce “multi-reality timelines” this is why im a patron. Genius.
