It's funny. One thing I really wanted going into the movie was for Thanos to be trying to court death as his motivation but after watching the movie I am happy they didn't.

I'm not sure that story with courting death would have translated well to film. But this backstory, and the story around his actual love for his daughter Gamora, really worked in the universe that they have built.

Would be interesting if they did end up going a "Multiverse" route in a Standalone Dr. Strange movie and he comes across a Thanos who had the same end game of collecting all the infinity stones but his reasoning was due to his love for death.

So different universe, different motivation, same fate.

They planted a bit of the seed of a potential multiverse in the first Dr.Strange. http://marvelcinematicuniverse.wikia...iki/Multiverse
