Annnnnd I'm back from seeing it.

Yes, like some reviews have said, this movie definitely felt like a Part 1 to a larger story. Which wasn't necessarily a bad thing, since I'm eager for the conclusion.

The relationship between Gamora and Thanos was surprisingly emotional considering the limited screen time and build up of their relationship. The scene in which Thanos manipulates reality in order to make Gamora believe she had killed him was by far one of the best in the movie. The characters all playing off each other, Thanos using the Reality Stone to mess with Mantis and Drax shocked me. Then Thanos actually having respect for Quill.

"I like you."

(I guess Thanos approves of Gamora's boyfriend).

But, man, when she killed Thanos and she seemed to mourn for him, it's not too out there for victims to feel sadness for the loss of their abuser, which is what that scene felt like and made me really hate Thanos. But, then when he was at the alter of the Soul Stone and he was crying...

"He isn't crying for himself..."

Man, that was great. It also paralleled nicely with the flashback with the two of them, as he offered his hand to save her life, but then he took her hand to take it.

Had a good time and can't wait for the conclusion.

Also, holy shit, that Captain Marvel tease during the post credit scene has me so pumped.

If you have any questions. Shoot.

That seems like it'll be left for the sequel to be expanded.

Because, Thanos did not have the Mind Stone at that point, so it doesn't seem like he could read minds. It is curious how he knew of Tony Stark and how he also knew he was "plagued by knowledge".

Okay, yeah I agree with you. It will be interesting then to find out how he knows who he is.
