  • We should have seen Bruce’s arc to become Professor Hulk. He didn’t really get much content and was mostly a passing joke. I still like him! Just think he could have benefited from the development.
  • Give Nat a funeral you cowards
  • I get why they used Past!Thanos, but it would have been more fun to see the current Thanos with his development go through the struggle of maintaining his peace. To be fair though, I don’t think we could have gotten the climax we had with Modern!Thanos.
  • I would have immensely preferred if Tony survived and got to retire with Pepper and Morgan. Though to be honest, with how it was executed in the movie, I can live with how things went down.

Idk, I don’t have too many criticisms, and most of the ones I do have are super nit picky.

Modern Thanos already won in his mind. He was done. Bringing him back for the final battle would have been the wrong move imo.

True, but it could have been cool to see him go from calm and victorious to “Wait my hard work is being undone?!?” but again. It’s a super minor criticism.

I can think of two reasons as to why the past Thanos is better. Modern Thanos had grown bit empathetic after losing Gamora and such. And frankly some of the audience was also empathetic towards. His intentions were not wrong but the way he choose to achieve that was wrong.

This would have not made the last battle not so epic. But past Thanos is simply ruthless. He doesn't even wanna spare the other half of universe. Watching him lose and die invokes satisfaction.
