What the fuck even is a “boomer”? Is it another dumb millennial thing that makes Jack shit sense?
"You've become part of a bigger universe. You just don't know it yet". Words meant for Tony, but I think we didn't know how big this universe was going to get either.
I think it was for us too. Let's face it, WE didn't know how big this universe could've gotten.
I don't think Marvel did either. They had their plans, but no one has ever done this before, or at least, succeeded at doing so.
@@RogueVader-lr1ql Go on without Paramount? No, Disney saw a gold mine, bought it, and I assume gave the old John Hammond "Spared no expense" budget to Marvel so they could keep printing money.
There's a lot of creative geniuses out there that need money to realize their ideas; Marvel got that money.
something that annoys me is, it's really hard to find the original announcements of the avengers, 10 years later I would love to see when people realized this wasn't just iron man and hulk.
@@wolfwing1 10 years ago, UA-cam was an infant!
The way you had Loki teleport as you said "With other characters getting Disney+ shows" felt perfect
He synced up his audio to a scene that’s appropriate because it’s showing what he’s talking about. This is like...the bare minimum of what he was supposed to do
@@Synnamon27 True, but that doesn't mean we can't appreciate how well it was done though.
he also did that showing a character while mentioning spoilers about the character but not saying their name
i doubt it was coincidence
no regrets it gets me more loki
I am so hyped for that Loki show.
Thor and Iron Man seeing their parents for the last time was very touching. They didn't have the chance to say goodbye before...

I honestly came out of the cinema feeling like I had a hangover. I was emotional exhausted!
My theater was cheering and it was epic. And I ended up having a headache from crying so much because it was the most emotional I've ever felt
@@DianaDxD I've only felt that way once before and it was because I stayed up until past 3 in the morning to finish a show
The fight between Rogers, Stark and Thor vs Thanos sent my anxiety into overdrive.
Same here buddy
Yep especially when Thanos started wailing on Cap with the sword I legit was thinking "Don't die! Don't die!".
@@themadtitan7603 meeee I was so convinced Cap was gonna bite it in this movie.
@@TheRibottoStudios Yeah lol
That fight sucked. Too much fake CGI
The 2010s really was the age of Marvel, that’s pretty cool
I wish it would stay that way.
Hopefully the 2020's moves away from that.
@@playthehighnote1122 no why hopefully? Marvel movies are great lol
2000s was Harry Potter decade lool
@@a.demifemiflapo5795, the 90’s were weird.
Even though I don’t think endgame was quit as good as infinity war, it was still a solid and fitting end to the mcu. It concludes the story in an epic, bombastic and satisfying way. If only the plot made more sense, endgame would have easily been on my top 5 favorites. For what it is, it still remains a milestone entry for the mcu.
I honestly wished this was the true end.
KaijusaurusG2K infinity war will always be the superior solo film. however, IMO endgame could not be a standalone film. It’s designed to be a send off for all our favorite characters. It’s why it isn’t as good of a film- it’s because it’s the ending of some 20 other films’ story arc.
@@ManOfAnswers I liked Endgame slightly more because it had more nuance. Both films and the first Avengers came across to me as solid but ultimately not exceptional blockbusters, but I can recognize how ambitious they all were in terms of scale if not necessarily in terms of plot.
Man Of Answers actually agree. Infinity war was the superior movie imo
Like how they were originally labeled i view infinity war and endgame as part of the same movie. I try not to view their merits seperately because the stories absolutely need each other to be whole and, as a whole, i feep theyre the greatest super hero experience we've ever gotten; and probably will ever get.
I think the idea for the time travel was 'We can't change our past' when they dive into other timelines they can screw with them as much as they like. I think that was the idea anyway.
Yeah, I think Doug's issue with the time travel comes from this misunderstanding. When Hulk says they can't change the past, he means they can't change THEIR past. They could go to an identical timeline and kill baby Thanos, which would help that timeline, but it wouldn't help their original one. In that respect, everything they did made sense.
The only thing I think they got wrong was having Cap at the end somehow appear in the forest rather than simply returning on the pad. If he returned on the pad as an old man, it would have made sense because he would have pressed his return button on his own time, referring to when Hulk says "He gets as much time as he wants, for us it'll be 10 seconds".
Cap appearing off the pad implies he somehow took another timepad back to their timeline, which doesn't really make sense. But, in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter too much.
@@TheDarkDrummer43 I was about to comment with this very thing, even the mistake they made with Captain America, but looks like you beat me to it. Well done!
@@TheDarkDrummer43
If he stayed in the past and lets say went to starks father or their bruce banner it makes more sense. He has memory like a computer so can easily draft a blueprint and ask them to make a way to return but not to tell anyone. If they do tell anyone that's from a timeline we may never see.
Yeah Doug clearly doesn't understand how the time travel worked.
@@TheDarkDrummer43 👏👏👏 I've never seen someone explain Endgame's time travel logic so perfectly
Doug: Movie felt too long
Tamara: movie didn't feel long at all
It feels long but it doesn't feel wasted
Doug is a major cynic and extremely jaded to movies in general, which comes from spending a decade or more reviewing awful movies. I love his NC episodes but have yet to find a "review" of his I sincerely agree with. Its fun listening to him rant regardless.
@@memorra I want to defend Doug a little, he may often by cynical towards bigger and hyped up movies, but he is also rather fair and supportive of some smaller movies that don't necessarily get the attention they deserve. Just look at his Disneycember review of Antman & the Wasp. That's a movie nobody ever seems to defend or call legit good, but Doug liked it a lot. Even he could barely find fault with Infinity War either.
He just sometimes really gets caught up in very odd details which then keep him stuck and detract from the rest of his experience.
@@yoursonisold8743 Ant-Man and the Wasp WAS pretty good. But the rest of the Marvel movies are made to such a high standard that "pretty good" isn't good enough. When AM&W came out, Marvel had just done Civil War, Dr. Strange, GOTG2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Ragnarok, Black Panther, and Infinity War. These were all HUGE movies which were critical and box office, and FANDOM successes. Seriously, look at that streak again. Let's say that Phase 3 had an overall grade of A. If AM&W comes out and it's a B+, then it's going to be a disappointment, even though a grade of B+ is pretty damn good.
@@yoursonisold8743 Agreed, he does have genuinely legit opinions and suggestions for the most part, like his ideas on Endgame I agree with but sometimes he lets his overly critical thinking get in the way of saying actual positive things about movies.
I just tend to shy away from watching any of his reviews on movies I really like and enjoyed because he delves deeply into what's wrong with a movie rather than simply letting himself enjoy it. I think its his "director brain" that he can't shut off so he is constantly going "they should have does this not that or they could have went this direction for a better effect".
Like I said I love his NC episodes (yes even the Wall), but as himself, sometimes he is a little much to handle on movies I enjoy.
2019: "Will Tony Stark have to give up the existence of his daughter in order to have this other timeline happen? Wow, that's one of the deepest question ever asked in a Marvel movie. This is really going to the next level... Oh."
2007: Spider-man will have to give up on his existing marriage and the existence of his future daughter in "One More Day". More than a decade later, it's still one of the most hated storylines ever among fans, right next to "Sins Past".
Different contexts though. One More Day only existed because Quesada hated the marriage. Its plot was so utterly stupid and contrived that the payoff made zero fucking sense. The MARVEL FUCKING UNIVERSE didn't have a single person who could heal a damn bullet wound. And Aunt May fucking TOLD Peter to let her go.
The reason the Spider-Man one is so hated isnt for the idea of the plot itself, but the execution of it. If something is executed badly, of course people are gonna hate it. Yeah you're right that this (Endgame) isnt the first time the idea for this plot line has been done in a marvel movie, but it's been done way better here, in a more positively memorable way.
@@kikml22 Even Linkara Said The deal with The Devil could have work if a) it was Mary Jane who had been Shot and b) The deal costed MJ not remembering Peter and he At least being relief she was alive but sadly not part Of his life anymore
@Honnjyx VII The first one was Okay. The second is hated for How ir spiraled down into a downward mess (and retconnned Aunt May's first death) but At least it ended back to a still semi liked Status Quo.
One more Day meanwhile Shattered The liked Status Quo while just retconning not some couple of years Of development, but DECADES out
FinalStigma For a hot second I thought you were talking about Spider-Man 3 and I was so confused
I still remenber being at the premier, and when Cap yelled Avengers, I said yea? YEA?!
Then he said Assemble, and we all went crazy, yelling, clapping, all in joy.
I’m proud to be a Marvel fan to see that moment happen in the cinema :)
I remember thinking "Like, 4 of them heard that. Even if the Avengers have radios, you can't tell me all the wizards and aliens are tuned into that frequency."
This wasn’t a movie. THIS WAS HISTORY.
Amen
"Wouldn't change one thing about the 3rd act."
Me: Well. One thing.
Rip Iron Man
@@Juber777 I'd say the gratuitous "girl power" shot. But to each their own.
@@Juber777 I would never want to remove such a well earned death
@@nugget3687 Besides, if Stark had survived, he would've had to face the consequences of his actions. To-wit: Tony insisting that the ONLY thing that gets changed is the Snap, proper, with everything from that point remaining in-force.
Simple examples of how deeply, profoundly selfish this is: Most commercial airliners have a two-man crew. If half of all crewmembers disappear instantly, that means that, overall, 25% of all airliners in the air at the moment of the Snap suddenly had no crew at all. Everyone on those planes died horribly, in a state of terror, and will not be brought back because of Tony's Rule.
More complex--what do you think the suicide rate was during that five-year period? How many children, suddenly left alone with no one to care for them, simply starved or died from exposure? All of these, and more, are still dead, just so Tony Stark's kid gets to get some cheeseburgers.
all i would change is how loud Rogers said Assemble
I just want to point out that I've wondered what kind of comically horrifying and random scene took place when Rocket extracted the Aether from Jane Foster 😂😂
And then Captain America went back and re-injected the Aether into Jane Foster. Which I imagine was even more awkward. It's definitely a short film we need to see on Disney+ sometime.
@@JonSmith-hk1bq oh God I didn't even consider that scene 😂😂 how awkward of a conversation that would've been for Steve.

"One of"? Try THE most epic battle in cinema
A long director's cut huh
This is coming from the guy who made To Boldly Flee which I may remind you is longer than endgame
Well, doug is not only abyssmal at storytelling, but has shown time and again that he has attention span and cognitive ability of a goldfish when it comes to following plot. And he's a bit of a hypocrite
AND the guy who makes even more mediocre stuff than what he complains about
Doug should stick to satire he is a terrible writter. You want them to not change the past. Then what is the point of time traveling? That is so stupid.
And Suburban knights and kickassia, which are both long and not interesting to watch.
@@markborishnikoff5485 Why would I want to watch 2 hours of people runing around in bad costumes those movies are an abomination.
I can understand ppl who say Infinity War was better overall than Endgame
I see where Doug is coming from, but I still found Endgame to be a massive disappointment, outside of a few select scenes.
Yeah, I loved Infinity War and Endgame but if I had to put one over the other, I'd say I.W. was better. It had more characters, it felt bigger and the stakes were higher, more people die (yeah they come back but you really had know idea which half would go)
@@KingRandor82 seriously dude what were you expecting?
OK I do think that infinity war is a little bit better than endgame I guess I just thought infinity war just was better put together not saying that I don't like endgame I just like infinity war more.
I can see infinity war many time but I don’t feel like seeing endgame ever again
I don't know why people thought the time travel in Endgame was confusing, it was pretty straight forward to me. Confusing, but it makes sense. Am I missing something?
Idk. I thought it made sense. When you go back in time, you create a new branch time, and when you remove a stone, that time line gets screwed. Pretty simple to me.
It made sense to me.
But I will admit, about a month before the movie came out, I had one of those nights where I couldn't fall asleep so I was just lying in bed thinking, "What if time travel is possible but the new timeline exists parallel to the old one?"; and thought about it until I fell asleep.
The scene with captain america in the end of movie. Its no sense he show up like a old guy with a new shield
Or even left the stone back in timeline. Cause the thanos in this movie is the same that Stones, so... no more thanos, no more infinity snap
@@alexandresmgc374 The reason he showed up was because Peggy’s mysterious husband was always Steve, Steve was always meant to go back in time, spend his life with Peggy, while another captain America would be frozen in ice and live in modern times until he was able to go back in time and the cycle happens again
Endgame had a better conclusion than dark pheonix and game of thrones.
True. But that’s comparing apples to shit. Yeah I have no clever comparison. I just wanna say that those were shit
Low bar very low bar
Raahim Kamaal lol
Got is still the best tv show ever
@Noah Biondi the room was the peak of filmography PERFECTION
I think it's funny how Doug finds Thor resolving his PTSD as extraneous
Doug always has to have some idiotic take to differentiate himself... the movie was made for those that have stuck through 10 years of the MCU. Why would they not include scenes of Tony and Thor getting parental closure? That's what differentiates MCU films from dumb action flicks. The pacing of this movie was absolutely perfect. When they arrive at Hulk putting the gauntlet on, there's this sinking feeling that the movie is almost over and you're hungering for more.
Doug: "ITS AWESOME"
Also Doug: "im gonna nitpick the shit out of this 10 minutes review!"
Its overrated af

PLEASE dear GOD talk about Star Wars: The Clone Wars 2008. The animated show. It does a WONDERFUL job fleshing out Anakin Skywalker to the point where you just wish anything would happen to _stop_ him from becoming Darth Vader even though you know eventually he becomes Darth Vader. His relationship with Obi-Wan is wonderful, and his relationship with his apprentice Ahsoka is stunning, and it's interesting she went from being _loathed_ by Star Wars to really respected and loved. Like they did a total 180 on her and it's easy to see why-her character is great and again she's a female lead *done RIGHT.* I'd LOVE to hear your thoughts on it.
Clone wars was better than both the sequel and prequel trilogies combined lol
@@SaurianStudios1207 hard agree lol. When Anakin had his force vision in the Mortis arc I was BEGGING him to remember but then thought "oh yeah nah he still turns into Vader dumbass" lol. God it's so good. While the animation is stiff because of the budget and style, they get the emotions across through the eyes which is always impressive. And my GOD the saber fights are SO good.

I guarantee he will talk about the show in this year's Disneycember especially after season 7 came out.
Disneyscember is like a my very own Christmas Calder
Doug must not be as big of Marvel fan as me and my brother. We fucking loved every minute
I don't think liking the movie slightly less makes him less of a Marvel fan.
He likes almost every movie in the franchise he likes the first avenger film (both the legit film and captain americas), he likes Thor, he likes guardians, he like black panther, he likes dr strange, he even like Homecoming despite not beeing as great as into the spiderverse, he even like both the antman films despite everybody shitting on them. Even the ones that don't aren't as awfull to the ones he grew up like Batman and robin, Superman 4 and steel. In my opinión he Is a better Marvel fan than most wannabes from the internet because he recognize every movie for what it Is and enjoy what anyone can offer... Why are you a better Marvel fan than him? Because you liked endgame better than him a movie out of 23 in the franchise, thats like saying you are a game of thrones fans because you love the battle of the bastands and nothing else.
No, I think Rob is a comic book fan :)
I bet u feel special
Rob passively aggressively sh*ts on most things lol

It was soooooo cool.
Dream Master The Lighthouse and Birdman were more satisfying
I agree, I watched it with my pal as well, and we both agreed that it was the BEST movie we'd seen in 2019!🙌
Did Doug just say that Tony Stark didn't deserve his satisfying sacrifice.
Literally a person in my class said that Thor was fat and I replied "no way"
Then I watched the film and went oh my God.

What are you talking about? Thor meeting his mom just before she dies and Tony meeting with his dad in 1970 were both great moments. Endgame is my 2nd favorite MCU movie after Winter Soldier.
This movie is actually an epic, gift-wrapped fan-service movie for Marvel fans...
...I have spoken.
This was an awful movie. It treated anybody that wasn't Iron Man and Captain America like shit. Too many memeable jokes and I am disappointed at Professor Hulk. This was the movie that really solidified the MCU as a corporate sellout.

@@thevfxmancolorizationvfxex4051 do you have that reply in a text file so you can just copy/paste into any comment at a moment's notice? A troll's gotta troll I guess.
4:58 Except those scenes were meant to provide closure for them, Doug.
After he failed to bring everyone back, Thor became immensely depressed, & from his mother & realizing he was still worthy to wield Mjolnir he realized he wasn’t a failure & not worthy like he thought he was.
For Tony, this was the end to a 10 year character arc. Tony had an estranged relationship with his father & felt like Howard focused more on his work than on Tony. Tony later learns his father actually did care, & he got to say goodbye to him like he wanted to.
These scenes were necessary for their characters.
Exactly, Thor's failure to go for the head and in his mind being the reason everyone lost was the start of his depression. You see it in the beginning, he's already drinking at the Avengers HQ, but it could be easily waved off as everyone was still down at the time. Then he gets hope with the whole "Let's go kill Thanos and get everyone back." but that fails and he finally fully enters the spiral when he "Went for the head."
5 years of depression is what we see with his enablers (Not that they intend to be but they are) where he is basically Thor the unworthy in his mind, sure it looks comedic but Thor is basically in full depression at this point. That is why he was not allowed to snap. His mind is not in the right place for it. Even after he realised he was still worthy after talking with his mother that is just the first step on the road to recovery from the potentially deadly disease. Hopefully Guardians 3/Thor love and thunder will expand on his recovery.
“We won, Mr. Stark...”
How every good story should end.
The heroes defeated the enemy.
4:17 It Black Widow, we all know you're talking about Black Widow Doug.
At least there's a Black Widow movie coming in May
Ya my problem with it there is that it really felt like they were setting Hawkeye up to take the jump then last minute they changed the script to make it Black Widow
DeathKnightofAnime but it does make more sense that it’s black widow
Gorilla G Rockson did anyone say it wasn’t a prequels ??
Meh, I'm just grateful that _Laverne & Shirley_ was a thing. Not to mention, Season 2 of _Hilda_ is coming out next month.
Endgame is my favorite movie of 2019. Flaws aside, This movie was both a celebration and conclusion to the first decade of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Just the sight of seeing all of our favorite characters on screen made it worth the two hours of time-traveling adventures and slower scenes. I'm glad Endgame is the highest grossing movie of all-time and I hope it stays that way for a long time.
Doug: When you see black panther and killmonger fighting, you feel that impact
Everyone: When you see two CGI pieces of black playdough swinging, you feel like your watching the amazing bulk.
Rest In Peace to Stan lee cause this was the last cameo appearance from him .(1922-2018)
Hey, man! Make love, not war!
Ready Player Two I was mentioning this because around Spider-Man far from home he didn’t have an appearance here
Doug needs to spend more time watching CinemaWins. I think he's just too negative sometimes. He's got legit criticism here, it just feels like he's making too big of a fuss about it.
Even though they didn't kill the same Thanos, he was just as evil and megalomaniacal, it was still worth it, IMO.
Dude, EVERYBODY needs more Cinemawin in their life :D
I thought it was the natural next step for Thanos. He's already crazy, why is it so implausible to see him destroy the entire universe now when he destroyed half of all life in IW?
TheGuardDuck Fuck CinemaWins, that channel is like a leech. Should've gone with a different video format to better suit its content instead of just straight up ripping off CinemaSin's format to a T. And no, its videos do NOT have to be formatted exactly like cinemasins in order for the channel to gets it point across, the reference is clear from the channel name alone, directly plagiarizing cinemasins is unnecessary and makes the channel's recognition unwarranted imo.
@@half-lifescientist1991 Yeah, but CinemaSins is shit. They're overly negative and nitpicky about bullshit. And that got old years ago.
CinemaWins does the format justice by appreciating all that the films got right instead.
@@markborishnikoff5485 Not really. Infinity War's Thanos was pretty weak due to him softening up since 2014. He was arrogant, but who can blame him? Meanwhile 2014 Thanos had only just begun the quest for the stones, he wasn't certain of his victory yet. He was brutal as well, which helped in the fight against the Avengers. If that was the Thanos we knew originally, he wouldn't have made it to calling reinforcements. And yeah, Thor's weaker than he was in Infinity War. But he still had Stormbreaker, Mjolnir AND Stark and Rogers with him.
I'm personally glad they didn't go the whole "Tony has to choose between a timeline where his daughter exists or the original timeline where everyone survives the snap" route, because I feel like I've seen that kind of thing a lot in other time travel stories, mostly anime. It feels like too cruel a decision to put him through.
I love this movie 3000!!!
#1 Box Office Movie in the World!
R.I.P. Stan Lee.
LOVED it when Tony & his father, Thor & his mother reuniting.... they needed *closure* !
I don’t think he understood the Time Travel part. They didn’t go back into *their* past, they went back into *the* past, and by doing so made a new timeline. The only thing that couldn’t change was the removal of the Stones, because they are the building blocks of each Universe
Mcu charecters at least understand About what time travel can or cant do.
I had to laugh when Back to the Future was mentioned and Somewhere In Time and they were like yeah that was bullshit.
🤣
Thor is not JUST a bum. He has PTSD and severe anxiety problems that he wants to free from. He’s used to winning, used to glory. He lost for the first time and lost when it counted. His talk with his mother gave him closure and helped him understand that what he’s supposed to be isn’t important as much as who he wants to be.
Endgame's character arcs straight up going over Doug's head like Pink Floyd's the Wall XD
Doug, the scene with Tony's father gave me chills. It was fantastic.
It still could potentially work better in an extended cut rather than a theatrical product. Nobody said it was bad.
I love seeing Citi Field on a normal business day in Endgame.
It’s one of those rare movies that I can nitpick the crap out of but still walk away thinking it’s one of the best theater experiences of my life.
We felt that Doug would save "Endgame" for the "End" of Disneycember

@@drpepper4761 BOTH ARE GREAT!
I agree, it totally ended the franchise on a high note, despite the losses of both Tony and Natasha!😩
I hate that OG Gamora didn't come back. I know, we got a "new one", and I can't say Star Lord finding her and trying to win her back won't be heart-wrenching in that "wife got amnesia" type storyline; but I just hate that officially, all they went thru together is gone, and new Gamora doesn't just "need to remember", but accept as factual past.
Saying this now, I realize Star Lord could probably dick around with this and convince her the Old Gamora did a bunch of stuff she never did. 😈
Still though, I'm sure it could be a good story, just, I didn't want such a story to be needed... 😣
It's possible some part of Gamora will be retrieved from the Soul realm in Guardians 3, though...
I appreciate that the death is permanent....
TheGuardDuck the old gamora went back to her timeline after the fight with thanos was over, so she’s dead forever

@@mediaguyking7045 Don't think so?
Original Gamora died, and such that she cannot come back.
"New" Gamora, from Thanos' crew, survived getting dusted with all of Thanos' forces, and I don't think she COULD go back. So she's still out there. Maybe hanging with Nebula?
I still get chills and squeal in delight a little every time I hear the clip of Capt saying "Assemble"
The idea for time travel is that they can "change" anything but it *Doesn't* actually change the Present day, instead it creates an alternate Parallel Universe that's separate from their own. That's the idea anyway.
Almost entirely disagree with you on your dislikes buts thats fine
Yeah black widow dying worked for me. Hawkeye dying would be depressing with his family coming back to him being gone.
Endgame felt like a satisfying fanfic to me. It was satisfying for all that it did and basically showed the audience everything they could have hoped for - all the what-ifs like Tony talking to his dad, Cap fighting Cap, etc. - but as Doug points out, it doesn't really advance the story or the character arcs other than to explore the possibility.
Literally the first thing i said to my girlfriend when we left the theater was "that was just good fanfiction..." it didn't feel like a marvel movie, but a checklist of what a marvel movie should be
terracannon876 so Teminator Genisys then?
I disagree with the doesn’t explore characters arcs argument. I think the whole point of the time traveling while to give the the big three (Cap, Iron man and Thor) closure to their decade long character arc.
Tony throughout this whole franchise is a guy who put everything below him for his own idea. (Ultron, Sakovia accords, etc.) seeing his dad and getting closure with him make him realize that he need to sacrifice himself sometime.
Steve is literally a man out of time. He had always been never to truly move on from his life with Peggy. Even when he help other try to move on after the blip, he himself still can’t move on. Seeing that there a chance to relive his life with Peggy finally give him a chance to stop being a soldier.
Thor is depressed in the entirety of endgame because he failed to save Asgard and the people he love and doesn’t feel worthy because of it. Saying goodbye to him mother make him realize that he not fit to be king and that okay. He can create his own path and still be worthy.
Thanks for sharing your opinion. Would like to know your thoughts about my argument
@@Marvelfan-nu7ve tony realizing he had to sacrifice himself sometime? Literally that's all he does since avengers 1. He didn't mean for Ultron to be bad, he was trying to make a shield over the world for an event like thanos. It's not his fault ultron went mad. And the sacovia accords was him trying to take consequences for his actions. So he's always been one to sacrifice and fight till the end. His role would've been 10x better if he DIDN'T time travel. He sticks to his guns and doesn't fight, he has a family now. However, he still helps the team time travel (even though i personally think the time travel plot is just lazy). But in the end battle, he finally puts his suit back on.
Capt being to go back and stay with Peggy sounds like a fangirls fanfiction. With cap coming back, meaning he stayed in the same time line makes a lot of plot holes. I feel like a refreshing arch for him would be finding a good middle ground. He retires to some cabin in the middle of nowhere with 40s technology in it.
And i feel like Endgame actually reversed Thor's character arch, making almost all of Ragnorok pointless. It's like if in Civil War bucky becomes good but the next movie he gets brainwashed and becomes evil again. Ragnorok and Infinity War was setting thor up for his big coming of age story, prepping him to be a king... then it just disappeared. I always resonated with thor because no matter how bad it got he still tried to smile. You don't normally see that in movies and stuff. Either it's happy go lucky or super depressed. They turned him into "LOOK HE BIG SAD. HAHAHAHA HE DRINK AND PLAY THE FORTNIGHTS, HE SO DEPRESSED HAHAHHAHA" given thors character i feel like he would have been the one to turn into hawkeyes character (i forgot the name). He goes around killing people who didn't deserve to live from the snap.
Just my opinion though, glad you liked the movie though :).
@@Marvelfan-nu7ve Thank you for your courteous and thoughtful response!
For me, it felt like these points were already covered in the previous movies. What we see in Endgame is then an exploration of the conclusion - a sort of "last hurrah" before the actual end and we have to say goodbye to the characters so that we have no regrets about what else we'd want to see - after these conclusions have been reached in the arcs.
To address each of your examples:
For Tony, his resolve for self-sacrifice has already formed by the second movie. Infinity War/Endgame introduces the conflict between prioritizing his personal life / selfishness (in a way) over being a hero - which while it's been explored before, it's never been with him as a father, which I feel brings another layer of responsibility to the conflict. However, this still is a conflict that's already been brought up before. It's not so much an evolution of the character as an exploration of something that's already occurred.
Cap went the other way around. He learned to prioritize his own personal life more and to give up being the "ideal" hero a little (ie, to think for himself). In Cap's case, I feel that the events themselves were natural conclusions from what happened in his arc, but that the arc had also reached its end prior to IW/Endgame because he'd already made his decision in Civil War when he decided to help Bucky. What happens in Endgame is a natural conclusion to these events, but this still isn't the introduction of new conflict that causes the character to change internally.
Thor... If we define his arc as "becoming a king of his people" and discovering "what actually makes a king," concluding in Ragnarok that "it is the people who make you king," then his arc is probably the one touched most in this Avengers movie. The way it does this, though, isn't by exploring the same question explored in his arc; instead, it's by ripping away the conclusion found in his arc in the first 5 minutes and then posing the question, now what? It's true that Thor has perhaps the most obstacles to overcome and thus the most change occurring with his character, but I don't feel this is in the same trajectory as in the arc that's been developed in the previous MCU movies. While you could argue that this is character change nonetheless and is important to Thor's character development, I think his arc ended before this, in Ragnarok.
In short, important events happen in Endgame with regards to "what" actually happens to the characters, but the characters don't internally evolve in their arcs that were explored in MCU. That's why, to me, Endgame felt at worst like a fanfiction (well-written!) and at best like a long epilogue and good bye.
I actually said "YAY!!!" out loud when I saw this pop up in recommendations.
I clapped! I clapped when I saw it!
Infinity War is The Dark Knight of the MCU.
Endgame is The Dark Knight Rises of the MCU.
Nope.
Winter Soldier is the MCU equivalent of The Dark Knight, not as good, but still
This is a movie that deserves to win Best Picture!
I totally agreed more!
Yes. That is right.
I can think of 20 movies that came out this year that are better than Endgame.
Uh, no
@@countdooku7152Count Dooku?! Is that you?!
2:54 That's what they did though. They didn't change the past, they just created new timelines
Of course this movie is same homage of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II. Both these movies are like extended cuts of having a finale.
After returning to the stones the only lasting changes are the rouge Loki branch and the dead Thanos branch.
The death in the middle made perfect sense and was great
First time i saw it when Tony saw his father i teared up because it was close to hone for me.
I find it amazing that two goddamn words set off a chain reaction of fans screaming in joy. They built up the use of that famous phrase for ten years, never once actually using it, all so Cap could deliver it in the best fucking way possible.
So going back in time doesn't change the future, yet Steve appears in the future after going back kinda contradicting what Bruce said.
The stones specifically split the timeline they needed to be returned to the exact same point where they were taken, anything else is kinda like a time clone
Steve came back to the MCU-Prime timeline from the other timeline he created, where he stayed with Peggy. He just didn't get zapped back on the pad.
My dad died the month this movie came out and that scene between Tony and Howard killed me. We left so Soo much unsaid and angry . That scene really still gets me
Thought this would be on December 31st but okay
I saw you on the Chuggaconroy channel.
This movie goes for a multiverse theory of time travel. There are two different timelines that occurs, the main timeline that occurs as normal and a split timeline that occcurs after events of the past have changed. Any changes won't effect the timeline they came from, it's cause the timeline to diverge into another branch. Dragon Ball does this method of time travel as well. I'm not too upset with that, my issue comes from when Captain America goes back in time to put everything back to how it was, which should be impossible.
This movie isn't perfect, Infinity War is still the better movie, however, this movie is a satisfying conclusion to 11 years of build-up, and I hope the MCU is able to reinvent itself going forward.
Cap goes back in time because the stones are used to protect each timeline not to eliminate them
I'm sorry but there is just no way you can kill your past self and somehow live: if you did somehow kill your past self you should then cease to exist.
Newton says that "for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction", I believe that also applies time travel.
@@yeetboi9817
The issue with Cap going to put everything back is the fact that it's not that simple. Not only must the stones be returned, they have to be returned to their original containers. The only easy one of those to do is returning the Time Stone to the Eye of Agamoto. But the other containers have to be broken to release the stones. How does Cap put the Space Stone back in to the Tessaract? How does he put the Mind Stone back into Loki's scepter? How does he put the Power Stone back into the Orb? How does he put the Reality Stone back into the Aether? How does he put the Aether back into Jane Foster? How does he even return the Soul Stone at all? Red Skull is simply a guide, not the one who actually gives you the stone. Celestial beings are the ones who actually give you the stone when a sacrifice is made. And when you get it, there's a flash of light in the sky, you're teleported into shallow water, and you wake up to find the stone in your right hand. So, again, how exactly does Cap give it back? Does he just leave it behind on Vormir? Do the celestials actually take it from him? The movie gives no explanation for any of this and not of it makes any sense.
@@batshineman174
Well, time travel isn't even something that's actually possible, as far as we know, but if you were to look at time as not a straight line, but as a series of different possibilities that branch off in different directions, then killing your past self simply means you're dead in this new branched timeline you have created due to this action, but since you are not of this timeline, it would not affect the timeline that occured before the split, so you'd be fine. Also, this is a reaction. The timeline went in one direction, you went back and interfered, so you caused a split in the timeline. You'd basically be Schrödinger's cat.
@Sonic Retro's KingofHarts
Yeah, Goku Black really made the timeline a nonsensical clusterfuck, but it wasn't perfect even before that. For example, when Future Trunks went back in time and interfered, he caused a split in the timeline, however, his time machine was able to return him back to his own timeline. But when he went back in time again, but went further in the future from when he originally went back, he was now in the split timeline he created and not the original one he's from. How did the machine take him to the split timeline? Does the machine just know where to take him? If he made 100 trips to the past and caused split timelines in every instance, how does he differentiate one from another and how would he possibly be able to jump across any them, but return to his own timeline? So, even Dragon Ball has it's issues with time travel, but at least Trunks isn't going back to put a bunch of things back to where they were in the past.
Deadpool : young steve rogers or old steve rogers time travel so confusing?
surprised this wasn't at the end of Disneycember
Yeah
End Game: It's not like back to the future.
Also End Game: It's exactly like back to the future.
Even the scenes were old cap meet young cap, or tony with his dad are really similar to the scene were the old doc brown meet the young doc brown in back to future 2, it was a nice scene but you could have cut it and didn't miss anything.
Back to the future part 2
Now, this is what I'm talking about. The only film I've seen 5 times in the theater.
I think you may have been confused with the time travel aspect, they aren’t changing THEIR past, they’re changing the past of other universes. Once they make a change it makes it into an alternate universe, and then they need to bring back the stones/whatever they took to ensure the universes are safe. Loki getting away was a screwup that they couldn’t really control.
The problems I had with this film were Tony dying, Steve being OP for a bit, Thanos, and it being 3 hours long
Not to mention whatever 2014 Thanos and the absolutely awful job they did with Hulk.
Hulk is professor Hulk, he can’t be rage monster forever
I started crying at that one character's death. They had to die because they were showing the other one present "I know where you are now, but here's where you can get. Dying for the sake of the world."
I cried my eyes out for iron man I liked that valkyrie took over for Thor, spiderman took over for iron man and I don’t care who I trigger and I like that sam took over for cap but a part of me wanted Bucky to take over because well they’re close friends but I guess sam works just my personal opinion
I guess the reason Sam got the shield and not Bucky was that the reason Steve was initially chosen to be the supersoldier was not because he's a super soldier, but because he was a good man
No matter your opinion, we can all agree that the third act is the greatest moment in a superhero movie ever. It was unbelievable seeing all the characters from these movies finally show us what the studio's been hinting at since Iron Man: a multiverse of some of the greatest characters ever created
There will never be another Endgame.
We got the Lord of the rings trilogies already
I don’t watch Lord of the Rings but I’ve been told those are good too.
@@thescreenslaver8520 Those aren't just good movies.
From book standpoint, I would say they are average
But as movie, LOTR trilogy is easily one of the greatest.
I need to start reading more fantasy books and movies. I always watch sci-fi and superhero movies.
@@thescreenslaver8520 The Lord of the rings book aren't easy to read but they're dope.. Especially the Silmarillion.
Can you imagine what would've happened if Avengers: Endgame was supposed to be released in 2020?
Despite me loving every part of this movie, I can't argue that people love, hate and find this movie okay
Why is Doug bothering to say all of this? Lol it was fun and satisfying, that’s literally all it needed to be. Infinity War was THAT good that it freed up Endgame to go bananas. As long as you had a good time that’s all that matters, this critique is so pointless 😂
I would love an Endgame extended cut. The movie didn't feel long at all, I was kept interested in what was going on the whole time.
I dunno about you Doug, but I personally thought the time travel thingamajig made total sense. It's just that every time you go back, you never go back to your own past. You go to an alternate reality. This does beg the question as to how old man Cap came back to our timeline. But that doesn't matter. There's a story out there for it, and it's not impossible for him to jump back to our timeline at some other point. As far as Endgame is concerned, Cap went back, put the stones back in their own realities, lived a life with Peggy in another reality, and then came back to ours in the end. How? That's a story for another time.
And seriously? An extended cut? Dude, come on. Who wouldn't kill for an extra second to talk to their now dead mom or dad to get some closure? Those moments were genuinely beautiful. And I dunno about you, but I fucking love Ronin. Thor as a bum was to show his downward spiral into depression and alcoholism, which is a genuinely gut-wrenching moment of relatability.
Also, just because it's a Thanos from another point of time in his life, it's still the same Thanos. He just doesn't have the same level of calmness and wisdom that 2019 Thanos did. The reason they did this is to solidify 2018 Thanos' victory. It's to fix the fact that our Thanos in essence, won. So what happens when you watch your future self die and see that the people who killed you are trying to undo your work? You obviously unravel. Whether it's 2018 Thanos or 2014 Thanos, it's still Thanos.
5:40 yeah...but remember..the LAST movie was about thanos..THIS one isn;t. This one is about our heroes. They lost last time and when they finaly beaten thanos...it wasn;t a win. Now they are back to square one..and they know....we can't lose this one AGAIN.
With IW you didn;t want them to lose, but the impact was so great that Thanos won. This time we don't need ampathy for him. We need it for our guys.
My main problem with endgame is the snap back because logistically if you think about it: people have been gone for FIVE YEARS. Cap is teaching a class trying to help people to grieve and move on, and that's great... but what happens to the people who *did* move on? You mourned your spouse, finally dated years later and remarried and voila, suddenly your dead spouse is back and now you're presented with an impossible choice. What about the people who died of old age/accidents while everyone was gone so the returned people never got a chance to properly mourn for their loved ones? What about twins if one was snapped and now suddenly your "twin" is 5 years older than you. What about jobs? You can't just give everyone their old jobs back (does a "snapped back" president take priority over the current president? Likely not). So half your population is suddenly jobless and the infrastructure is no longer geared to account for the sheer numbers of people who have suddenly returned. There would be famines. Wars. Extreme duress and political/cultural upheavals on EVERY planet yet the movie treats this as some sort of happily ever after "oh yay, everyone is back and now things are fine" scenario. Bringing them back would be far more of a hell on earth than snapping them away ever was.
The scene where Thor reaches out for mjolnir, wouldn't it be hilarious if the Thor of that timeline had it in his hands at the time.
I loved how fate ironically revered the end of infity and endgame. (Peter and tony obvious monents here)
Scarlet witch - "You took everything from me."
THANOS - "I don't even know who you are."
This is the only major problem I have had with this movie. This Thanos does not have a history with the avengers of infinity war. It is just a fight for him. The satisfaction of punching Thanos is lessened when you know he is not the same who caused so much pain to the heroes.
It is interesting. I never saw that way until this video. I kind of saw Thanos as the embodiment of the impersonal nature of war and fighting, and so the fact even now he was so detached from the people he 'saving' and the suffering he caused is what made him such an impactful villain.
maybe so but the threat is there and original thanos got his head and arms cut off at the start
There's a video by Hello Future Me that describes something really interesting that Endgame does in terms of tension. To quickly summarize his video: we know that the Avengers succeed and bring everyone back, so we're never on the edge of our seat, wondering "will they get the stones, will they invent time travel?" We know they'll succeed, so all of the tension comes from the characters. Will they resolve their problems, and who will die? So that's what you're supposed to root for. I think that's what they were going for, and I think it was a good choice. The entire movie is about the heroes looking back on how far they've come.
I still like Infinity War more
The time travel made total sense. Keep up.
This should've been the last Disneycember for 2019 because IW was the last Disneycember of 2018
