There are, but if you enter in Hela Thanos it gets decidedly x rated in a hurry, so I threw that together to see how it would look.

Holy dip. I haven't watched Ultron since I saw it in theatres (was not a fan), but it was on TV the other day. I caught the end credit scenes where they reveal Thanos. Man was that CGI awful. Actually even in some of the earlier IW trailers I thought Thanos didn't look that great. But wow I thought they delivered on his CGI in spades by the time this got to theatres.

The CGI was incredible, perhaps the best ever done in a superhero movie.

Saw it. Loved it. I've never been to a movie where there was cheering and gasping.
Cheers:
Iron Man stepping out towards Maw as he dons his nanotech suit.
Cap stepping out of the shadow at the train station in Scotland (I wish they didn't spoil that in the trailers)
Thor arriving in Wakanda bad ass style.
Gasps:
Star Lord screwing up the plan by pistol whipping subdued Thanos
Kid gasp when Spider man goes to ash.
Question, tongue kind of in cheek. Thanos has been on this 50% genocidal quest for quite some time now. If he's already killed a bunch of people, how many did he kill when he snapped his fingers?
If he already killed 12.75% of the people in the universe, was that a 37.25% snap?

Maybe I didn't see all the trailers, but I thought the trailer did a good job of making it seem like he was in Wakanda when he got introduced (Black Panther saying "somebody get this man a shield.")
I had a kid behind me make a very loud "no" when Groot dissappeared, sounded near in tears.

After staying off any internet where I might have the movie spoiled I finally got to see it tonight. Loved it, I’m also speechless.

Saldana was terrific - strong, funny, vulnerable, heart-breaking. In a movie filled with great short performances, she is the beating heart of the movie.

Is there a Dr. Strange sequel on the books? That character has really grown on me after this movie and Thor 3. Of course I know he is dead and all.

IMDB says 2021 for the next Doctor Strange but nothing is confirmed. I hope we get another. The first was great.

The only future films that have been confirmed are: - Ant-Man and the Wasp in July
- Captain Marvel next March
- Untitled Avengers Sequel next May
- Untitled Spider-Man Sequel next July
- Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in 2020
Beyond that, Disney has announced plans for basically 3 new Marvel films each year but have not confirmed any characters for those films going forward.

Left the theatre wondering if I just experienced a high watermark of cinema, a grandiose achievement that will never again be matched. 11/10.

It's perplexing, I've heard almost nothing but universal praise for IW on every forum and every converstation I've had with people who've seen it. Contrast that to The Last Jedi where most people I talk to either hated it or thought it was average, and we know how the online discussions about it have gone. Yet TLJ scored 7% higher on Rotten Tomatoes. I love both franchises so I can look at both movies without much bias, IW is just better in all respects. Story, dialog, characters, all far more enjoyable in Infinity War. So what exactly caused critics to like TLJ more?

Probably super hero movie fatigue. Rising sentiment that super hero movies are being overdone.
It is starting to be fashionable to bash super hero movies in hollywood circles.

Just went a second time and loved it even more. I felt a great deal of sympathy for Thanos who believes he's actually the hero in this and doing what must be done at great cost.
At the end of the day, the surviving Avengers have a problem, really only one of them can handle a infinity stone and that's Thor, if I'm thinking right. The other problem is that the gauntlet looks like its wrecked after Thanos snapped his fingers.
So what are the possibilities. With Thanos task complete, it makes logical sense that he either scatter the stones or destroy them so that his work can't be undone.
Also can they re-animate the Forge again to make a gauntlet to house the stone. Now normally you'd say "But Captain", they only need the time stone. But even with less then a full complement of Stones Thanos is far above the other avengers in terms of his power so I would think that they need a Gauntlet full of gems to beat him and then use the Time Stone to reverse the damage done.
If I'm right we pretty much have Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, The Hulk (Who could probably handle a stone but not have the mental discipline to use it) Ant Man, Wasp, Captain Marvel, Rocket, Rocket and Nebula as well as Marvel.
Only two are basically god like powerful.

It is weird isn't it?
I didn't hate TLJ but it isn't even in the same conversation as IW. I'm absolutely shocked that IW isn't getting more praise for being a true achievement in high budget action/comic book adaptation movies.
