@jiggs1234: I actually made a poll for this upcoming series on the mcu forum. Check it out. Its Winter soldier and falcon cast.

@ravenvice01: Sure do

@nitelite: why thank you ??

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who felt this way. Especially since the movie went two hours without any real action until the final battle. I was wondering if they should have sped up the first two hours or lengthened the final battle for more characters to get some shine.

We finally have a legitimate connection from a movie to a television series instead of the other way around. I believe this is an MCU first and I'm surprised it isnt being talked about more.

I think the whole female thing would have been better if marvel was racing to the van and the gradually jumped in to take out the bad guys instead just popping up and being like Female Power!

I'd give the movie about a 7/10. I really enjoyed it in the heat of the moment--which is more than I could say for Civil War--but many parts of it don't hold up super well.

The first 30 min or so of the movie were way too exposition-heavy, and ended up intruding on the grief factor with the constant need to explain the time travel. It reminded me a bit of the beginning of Days of Future Past, but more drawn-out. I liked Tony swearing off the Avengers, but Hulk's popularity felt really random and clashed with the darker theme they were trying to set. It was disappointing but not surprising that Marvel kept trying to lighten the mood with jokes.

I liked the minimal amount of Captain Marvel in the movie. The parts we saw her in, she was great, but I am likewise glad that they kept the movie focused on the original Avengers. However, the end of Black Widow felt cheap, especially given that she has built up more of a fanbase (having appeared in more movies) than Hawkeye. I was really expecting him to jump and for his daughter to take up the bow in his place. Though I did enjoy them fighting for the role of sacrifice.

The time-travel parts were super wonky. I figured they would have to be, in order for there to be sufficient drama while time-travelling, but it clashed with the well-defined nature of the MCU's timeline. It seemed like they were going to be leaning into the multiverse concept like in the comics, but it was never actually stated outright.

I loved Nebula, but wasn't impressed by Thor. He wasn't bad, just... disappointing. I don't know why I keep waiting for Thor to become a noble warrior character, but it seems that Marvel is intent on keeping him the jokester because's he is dumber. Though I am looking forward to him joining the Guardians in space, as it paves the way for more inter-connectivity in solo movies.

I think my favorite parts were the tweaks to history. The bit in the 70's was largely unnecessary (except to reiterate Steve's love of Peggy to set up for the ending), but I ADORED the return to the original Avengers in 2012, in particular Steve conning the HYDRA agents and fighting himself.

The final battle was, of course, amazing. Steve wielding Mjolnir and saying "Avengers Assemble" was a long time coming. I enjoyed the bit with all the female heroes, it just felt really sudden and a bit random, especially given that they were supposed to be protecting Carol and, like... two of them have powers. But I respected what they were going for.

Tony and Steve's respective endings were great. I actually anticipated it being the other way around--Tony retiring and Steve dying--but I am glad they went with what they did. I was hoping for Bucky as the new Captain America, but Sam is good too. Just wish we got to see Bucky and Steve's goodbye.
