Infinity Wars was stupid. Have some super heroes run around fighting bad guys trying to destroy the world for some stupid reason. There was no pick. It's all stupid.

All stupid is correct.

I don't know, I thought it was kind of fun that they mixed things up for a change and had the protagonist be the villain and the central plot be about his triumph over the antagonists who are the heroes; the movie ending with him relaxing and enjoying the sunset now that his great work was over and so he could retire and put down his burdens was a really nice touch.

You ignorant. Thanos was the hero. Ironman is just another billionaire denying the obvious responsiblity for the death of all life on earth Thanos was preventing.

Maybe so, but it was still a janky story. A gigantuan struggle, with epic consequences... resolved by deus ex machina.

It wasn't "resolved." Thanos won. Then some janky billionaire lying asshole undid that and then lied about fucking everything. Everyone went on like a march of idiots right over the suicidal cliff like lemmings.

That's not a fictional story. Goodbye! Forever!

But that plot point was completely nonsense.

Yeah, a BILLIONAIRE undoes GOOD THINGS being done by the "VILLIAN."

Of course it doesn't make sense. It DOES make sense when you undo the bullshit it's spun around. There you fucking go.
