This is not a review as much as a bulletpoints of observations. It's ULTRAspoilery, no stones unturned, so only read it AFTER you see it, ok

Oh, I agree with most of this. I am completely lost on all the plots in the MCU, especially anything regarding the infinity stones ... I mean after watching Guardians my friend had to explain it to me and then I forgot it. Definitely time to rewatch it again. Anyway, since Thor sees four stones in his vision and where they came from and then says there's six in total, I'm totally buying that he saw it all in his dream and that's why he knows there's four of them. I don't think he needed to see exactly what happened there, just enough to know what's going on. I'm having an easier time buying that than him randomly making the crypt-thingy work by smashing his hammer into it. That kinda comes out of nowhere.
Ugh, Iron Man!? I mean, yeah, Joss pretty much hates the rest of the MCU as far as I understand and ignoring that suuuucks. Also suuuuucks that he's gonna be what, the villain in the next Cap movie? Without Iron Man the MCU wouldn't even exist, excuuuuuuse me for being a bit upset about this. It's always his fault, somehow? Character development is something people do on TV shows, not something that happens in action movies, APPARENTLY.
VISION!!! There's something wrong with you.
The first time I saw it I was impressed by how much sense it made despite it being all over the fucking place, but now ... not so much? I don't understand how the characters come to any conclusions whatsoever. I just sort of accept that they manage to figure it all out, but I don't understand it.
SPeaking of Ultron (what my thoughts aren't all over the place, shut up), there's a line by Bruce just after Tony pitches the idea to him, something like "then the only thing threatening the earth will be mankind", and I'm sort of assuming that's where Ultron's motivation comes from? Otherwise I just can't figure out why he gets the idea that killing humankind is the solution to everything. Your ideas were better, I think.
I spent the entire first watch being all 'omg where do I recognize Helen Cho from'. Apparently from Marco Polo, where she kicks ass. But uhh doesn't explain her suddenly showing up and everyone knowing her. One introctory line wouldn't kill ...
Also between first and second watch I found out what Prima Nocta means, and uuugggh. Not sure if that was a line improvised by RDJ or not but it shouldn't be in the movie.
Ehhh... I'm not even commenting on your post I'm just rambling. Sorry not sorry.
But like ... I don't get The Hulk? They're like OH NO HE'S PISSED OFF BECAUSE HE FEELS THREATEN LET'S ... threaten him some more? And like ... I thought he could use the Hulk for good when he deliberately hulked out, but after Natascha pushes him off the cliff he's immediately ready to follow her lead. Is that because he's totally in love with her? BEcause I'm here for that. But it's not really explained, so I'm confused. The lullaby thing isn't explained either??? i really feel like we missed a movie.
Yeah, it went so fast when they were talking about the jewels, I'm sure that people who just watch those films for entertainment are confused. There were 6 gems total, that's common knowledge for people who know about them, I know that The Collector speaks about that when he explains it to the Guardians. I'm assuming Doctor Strange will introduce us to another one, and Ragnarock to the next, which will make 6 in total. Vision has one, Nova Prime has the next, no idea what is he status of the Aether, Thor has the Tesseract.
I hate Civil War, I stopped reading Marvel after that clusterfuck, never got back to it. I've heard a rumour that Cap is suppose to be pro registration this time which is WHAT LIKE WHAT LIKE NO. I don't even want to think about it.
Vision is Paul Bettany in red body paint. GIVE ME SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL!
Yeah, it's one of those films that falls apart the more you act hit, because the first time they distract you with the shiny.
I caught that Prima Noctra thing but I thought I misheard but nope, I didn't. Ewx70 This is the second fandom in 6 months that disappointed me in that area.
Hulk has always had some control over his actions, like an animal, point him in the right direction (if he trusts you) and he'll help. Yeah I think it was like with Betty in TIH, he knew her, he protected her at all cost and was always gentle with her, because he loved her. I think he transferred his feelings towards Natasha in this film. The lullaby is just Nat calming him down because that's how he Hulks in (???)
