My Thoughts on 'Endgame'
Couldn't keep away from this film forever, could we? So, Endgame, then. The fourth Avengers, after Joss Whedon's fan service exercise in the first Avengers, a studio mandated thing that had a pointless and pretentious subtext in a film ultimately about Easter eggs fighting robots, and The Russos' depressing ugly padding of Infinity War, which turned out to be two and a half hours of story that didn't seem to have an ounce of complexity to it or even much of an ending, adding up not being one of the MCU's strong points. Infinity War was, of course, the film that taught the world that gritty heroism and universe spanning tragedy have their places, and that place is not the same place as the place where Spider-Man fights an ugly mo-capped alien from kidnapping Sherlock. I know the MCU is aspiring to write stories with some complexity, and that audiences are insisting on selfishly trying to have fun must be very frustrating, but they kind of brought this on themselves when they decided that Thor being a fat guy would be a subversive masterclass on how to disappoint people on the best character for years to come.
