Breakdown of all script feats:
They hang there a long, terrible moment. CLINT’S GRASP STARTS TO LOOSEN. Finally, she looks him in the eye.
That makes Nolan Batman stronger than Clint and Nat, as he was beaten up, in worse situation and had to handle much heavier weight than Clint had to (when he saved Ra's from falling off the cliff)
That thing is channeling enough energy to light up a continent.
Also in the script, although the dialog was formed a bit different
SMART HULK Lightning won’t help you, pal. It’s gotta be me. (approaching) You saw what those stones did to Thanos. They almost killed him. None of you could survive. STEVE And how do we know you can? SMART HULK We don’t. But the radiation’s mostly gamma. (beat) It’s like I was made for this...
HIM is underlined. It is made clear that what could almost kill Thnos will definitely kill all other avengers. And just like in the movie, it is made clear that Hulk only will survive due to Gamma.
Nothing moves. The smoke clears, revealing...A BOMBED OUT CRATER A MILE WIDE. Avengers Compound has been destroyed.
The crater created by the missiles was 1 mile wide.
THE CRACKED CEILING GIVES WAY. A MILLION GALLONS OF RIVER WATER RUSH IN. RHODEY TRIES TO KEEP HIS HEAD ABOVE WATER
So Hulk was not just holding the ceiling, but also a million gallons of water on top of the ceiling, That's thousands of tons while injured, with one arm.
JUST AS THOR CHARGES THANOS. WHAM! ALL THREE AVENGERS ATTACK, USING THEIR SKILLS IN CONCERT.
THANOS STUMBLES, ON HIS HEELS. THE HEROES PUNISH HIM, RELENTLESS
In the movie, Thanos was never stumbling on his heels. Perhaps they shortened this scene.
Thor calls for Stormbreaker, but Thanos intercepts it. He presses the blade into Thor’s chest, trying to drive it home. Then, across the field...MJOLNIR RISES INTO THE AIR. THANOS GRINS, ABOUT TO FINISH THOR OFF, WHEN...MJOLNIR FLIES IN, KNOCKING THE AXE OUT OF HIS HAND
As I expected, no details about Thor resisting Thanos trying to push Storbkreaer.
Just a short note how Thanos was about to finish Thor off.
Half-conscious, THOR SEES STEVE HOLDING MJOLNIR.
Thor was almost KO'd by Thanos, also clear in the movie, where Thor takes a lot of time to get back up fighting.
Steve leaps, trying to finish Thanos off...BUT THANOS ROLLS ASIDE, HEAD-BUTTING STEVE BACKWARDS.
A minor difference from the movie, where Thanos chokeslams Steve, not headbutt.
Anyways, notice the difference in above line and the previous line "about to finish off" vs "trying to finish off"?
THANOS GETS TO HIS FEET, A FAINT SMILE ON HIS FACE.
All I remember is Ebony Maw stopping Cull obsidian, noting "let him have his fun" and Thanos smiling while fighting Hulk. Not surprisingly, this fight resembles Thanos vs Hulk in many ways.
Steve watches Sam soar over the field, then turns AS EVEN MORE PORTALS OPEN.
THOR gets to his feet, calling Stormbreaker to his hand as...TONY regains consciousness, staring out at the cavalry.
This is when Tony (ko'd by Thor) and Thor (nearly ko'd by Thanos) regain their consciousness and get back on their feet.
DRAX launches himself onto a CULL currently choking the life out of KORG.
A cull?
Elsewhere, TONY BATTLES SEVERAL CULLS. One knocks him into an Outrider, who’s about to rip his armor off when... THWIP. PETER PARKER webs the Outrider, yanking him into the path of...GIANT-MAN’S FOOT. SQUISH.
In the movie, it was Tony fighting several outriders before Cull knocked into rubble and was about to rip his armor off using his blade, before Peter webs Cull Obsidian and puts him in Giant man's path.
So this part would not be canon. (Or the writers confused cull and outriders, which isn't a big deal exactly) or the plan to have multiple culls was scrapped.
Also, nowhere is any evidence of more than one cull so there's that.
CLINT FIGHTING THROUGH THE HORDE, CARRYING THE GAUNTLET. A CULL HAMMERS CLINT, BUT THEN...T’CHALLA SLASHES THE CULL.
Another instance where script hints multiple culls but the movie changed it. T'Challa actially took out a few chitauri apes and outriders charging Clint.
ACROSS THE FIELD...WANDA LIFTS THANOS INTO THE AIR, RIPS HIS ARMOR OFF IN PIECES, THEN SLAMS HIM BACK TO THE GROUND
Another slight deviation from script. Thanos was suspended in air in the film.
STRANGE AND WONG CONJURE TWO HUGE RUNE SHIELDS TO SHORE UP THE BANK. MORE WIZARDS JOIN, CREATING A HUGE “RUNE LEVEE.”
Also in the movie it was strange alone who did it
Rocket looks up at...A COMET HEADING STRAIGHT FOR EARTH. GROOT (nervous) I am Groot. Rocket grins, knowing what’s coming. ROCKET Just wait for it. SUDDENLY, THE COMET VEERS...RIGHT TOWARD THE SHIP. BOOM! THE COMET TEARS THROUGH THE SANCTUARY-2, RIGHT OUT THE OTHER SIDE, REVEALING...CAROL DANVERS
Carol was compared to a comet, reaching from upper atmosphere to sea level in afew seconds.
ACROSS THE FIELD...EBONY MAW SENDS WANDA TUMBLING, BUT SHURI BLASTS HIM OUT OF THE SKY. CULL OBSIDIAN HAMMERS VALKYRIE, BUT NEBULA TAKES HIM OUT
Never happened in the movie. Once again, reinforces the multiple cull plan was likely scrapped.
SHE PUTS HER HEAD DOWN, FLYING FOR ALL SHE’S WORTH. BUT JUST AS SHE REACHES THE GAPING VAN DOORS... THANOS THROWS THE SPEAR...
Thanos used the sword in the film.
There isn't the Thor vs Thanos round 2 or Carol vs Thanos round 1 in the script. It just says Thanos "knocks others aside". Carol vs Thanos round 2 is described word-by-word exactly as it happened on screen.
Summary:
- Most of the script has been adapted word-by-word. However, there are some changes.
- Biggest change is the lack of multiple culls, which are pretty much spammed in the script.
- The tidal wave is focused heavily in the script. In almost every second page, there is a line about how it is too big and powerful.
