I was going to post in Rocked, but then I realized that, beyond a generic "it was good" I was mostly complaining.
So. I saw Infinity Wars. It was good, enjoyable. Though the thing I expected to be a problem was- I fucking hate the Guardians. Specifically Drax, and to a slightly lesser extent, Mantis.
They fucking drag the guardians down in maturity. Quill and Gamora have actual mature conversations when Drax isn't there. Rocket is hilarious.. well, pretty much always, but more so when Drax isn't there. Groot is... well Teen!Groot was more bearable than Baby!Groot. But Drax is basically a fucking walking autism joke, and an incredibly lazy one at that, and Mantis just extends that joke.
So. The complaints that involve spoilers. You've been warned.
At the end of the movie, Thanos wins. Duh. We know there's going to be a second part, so honestly this isn't a surprise. It results in half the universe's population being erased.
All fine, not really surprising. Very well executed, and it's very emotional.
But as the erasure went on, I was taken out of the moment as EVERY FUCKING NON-WHITE MAJOR CHARACTER GOT FUCKING ERASED.
T'Challa- Erased.
Sam- Erased.
Rhodey- Erased.
NICK FUCKING FURY, WHO GOT NO GODDAMNED SCREEN TIME BEFORE THE POST-CREDITS SCENE, FUCKING ERASED.
Wanda and Hill were erased, Carter was nowhere to be seen (though I'm glad for that, because CapXSharon is skeezy as fuck).
Shuri and Okoye live, but if Marvel actually puts even one, let alone both, of them forward as a full major character, I'll be fucking floored.
So Avengers 4 is basically "FIVE MIDDLE AGED WHITE MEN, A CGI RACOON AND A COUPLE TOKEN WHITE WOMEN SAVE THE DAY WHILE ORDERING A COUPLE BLACK WOMEN AROUND."
Like I said, it was a good movie. And I'm being offended over stupid shit here, but it pissed me off.
