just saw it, and man was it everything I was hoping for, and then some!!! Amazing amazing job, with a cliffhanger at the end. Really look forward to seeing how the sequel goes next year, and to the reactions from our members here.

I just got back from a matinee show, and all I can say is wow. I am not one to give spoilers, but both my kids were clutching onto me at the end, one almost in tears. Can't wait for the sequel!!
 
Same. It was fantastic. My favorite line:
Of course I speak Groot. They teach it in school on Asgard. It's an elective.

The humor infused throughout was brilliant, particularly amongst the Guardians of the Galaxy group.

He's like an angel crossed with a pirate.

The action was great, but the character play really made the show.

The "Elective" comment was classic!

Loved it and man, 2019 is so far away!
 
Fun movie. I was surprised by how much screen time Thor got, but his part really added a lot to the movie. Wow, Stormbreaker was awesome.

Heck yeah it was! While I have not read to much on Thor, I am assuming it was done for the purpose of the movie, but I dug how Groot gave a little bit of himself for the handle! Pretty cool if you ask me.

That was certainly a nice touch. I haven't read much Thor either, but it is interesting that we saw a nod to Beta Ray Bill in Ragnarok and now we see Stormbreaker in Infinity War. Clearly this is either foreshadowing or Marvel is simply keeping their options open for future stories.

Beta Ray Bill! Holy smokes, could you imagine the look on everyone's face if they saw him come down as Thor! I could so see a snide comment regarding a raccoon and now this! HAHAHA.

I thought it was cool, but it would have had more of an emotional punch if Groot himself sacrificed himself to become the handle and to save Thor's life.

However, clearly most of these characters are coming back (most of them have sequel movies to be in) so you couldn't really get away with actually killing off Groot.

That would have been freaking epic if that occurred!

Speaking of Groot, the scene where he talks back to the group like a teenager still cracks me up. Star Lords reaction was too funny.

I honestly thought that's what was happening until he essentially trimmed his fingernails, then I thought to myself "what a missed opportunity for a real emotional moment".

Yup I agree! But something tells me they want him around for future movies and products. That would of been a good if not great scene if it played out that way.

Guardians 3 is already in some stage of production. Same goes to Black Panther 2 and others. These characters aren’t dead, they’re trapped in the “soul dimension” in the soul stone. I’ve never read a comic book but actor contracts, exposition in the movie itself, production schedules, etc all give away this obvious secret.

That said, I’m fairly confident Tony Stark will die in the next one (or his body anyway) as he’s constantly been the “it’s the only way” guy since the first avengers. What I’m REALLY interested in is what about that new nano-suit drawing Thanos’s blood will be a major plot point in bringing him down. The whole “all that for a drop of blood” line is clearly the beginning of the end for Thanos...and perhaps stark as well.

I think Captain America is also done for. Those two characters I can see going down. Oh yeah, they are not going to get rid of one of there most successful aka money makers in Black Panther or Spiderman. I agree they are trapped in the "Soul Dimension".

I think it will be interesting to see if they do the whole turn back time on this with bringing back some of the characters they did actually kill off in this version.

Will it be, turn back time to bring back those characters, then a big showdown and then we see the real death of Iron Man and possible some others?
