Thor entering Wakanda is much more hype then everyone joining the final battle in Endgame
- Thread starter fanboi
- Start date
Yeah even in UK where audience reaction is usually non existent had noises for Endgame scenes
Thor's arrival was much more hype for me and I think it's because I just much prefer IW as a movie and buildup to that moment.
Enjoying can be done without disturbing others.
I was there in the Netherlands in the first weekend for both Endgame and Infinity War, I'm very happy nobody decided to do this.
Calling the first movie Avengers Assemble always deflated any attempt to say it onwards for me.
Cap/Thor/Iron Man vs Thanos > Thor in Wakanda > Captain Marvel enters earth atmosphere > Avengers assemble.
It's not necessarily that it's hard to follow, it's that the Endgame fight lacks any cohesion. Look at for instance any big battle in the Lord of the Rings films. Those battles have a natural flow. Even though they are long, they all tell their own very clear story. I can precisely tell you when what happened, what were the big turning points in the battles, who was where at what moment, etc.
The Endgame battle after the Portals sequence goes like this: 'And here's Spider-Man doing shit, and here's Black Panther doing shit, and here's the girls doing shit, and here's Tony doing shit, and look at that, it's Ant-Man doing shit'. There's no sense of location or coherence anywhere. It's all just a brown mush with characters swapping in and out. It's very cool as a fanservice thing, but it's in no way a well-written epic war scene.
IW in general was a more enjoyable movie than EG. I think part of it was watching the movie with friends who had no interest in comics and had no idea what was coming; all that hope and confidence Thor brought to a hopeless fight dashed in a single moment. All the rants and discussions afterwards made the whole experience a lot more memorable.
Nah, as evident in the video where multiple languages are used. Thor joining the fight is still the hypest moment I witnessed in cinemae, and it's a fun experience to share with the rest of audience. For the record, it's rare to get that sort of reaction and it's always restricted to these epics moments.

My lowkey favorite moment, aside from the hype ones, between the two is really when Cap says, "Let's go get this son of a bitch."
Thankfully, most people in theaters with reactions like this aren't being disturbed. They're there because they love moments like this.
This post led me to watch every single clip in this twitter thread and damn, it was pretty emotional for me and left me with a strong sense of melancholy by the end. I know these sorts of opening night experiences aren't for everyone but I sure miss being in the same space as a bunch of people, knowing we are united in our love of this one thing.
Oh wow, I'm surprised more people found endgames scene more hype.
For me Thor returning had so much build up to it in the film and the payoff with music and him crashing down sends me into a wave of feels.
The endgame scene was hype too but nowhere near as that for me due to lack of build up in the film itself. It felt more like rise of the skywalker just having everyone warp in at the end ready to take on the bad guys.

Nah man, it was a nice moment, but it wasn't that damn hype to compare to endgames entrance from everyone. Thors side quest was the least interesting thing about that movie really. They nailed his arrival to Wakanda to make the payoff worth, but .... its not "On your right" tier at all.
This is one of the moments I wish never appeared in the trailers.
This is why I only go to the theater 2 weeks after the movie I want to see is released.
It's Avengers Assemble, but more so the Cap-Mjolnir moment.
Also it's still pretty hilarious to see people still bothered at those reaction vids.
Like if the majority of the audience (who also paid money to watch the movie, suprising!) are whooping in excitement at scenes specifically crafted to incite that type of reaction, maaaybe nobody gives af that you're bothered.

I had to tell a guy to shut up during the beginning of Endgame because he was providing bad MST3K style commentary for his whole group for every scene. There was no way I was going to stop an entire theater from cheering though.
I agree that people getting up out of their seats is too fucking much. At that point you're blocking everyone else's view.
I am just trying to imagine some of these scenarios lol
"Attendant! Will you PLEASE show these bothersome rapscallions out? They are affecting my cinema experience."
End Game is a damn Star Trek time travel episode with $500m budget..
Infinity War is a fucking great movie, Thanos beat the shit out of Avengers, put a smile on my face...

Those employees would be just like 'bruh' and walk away lol
This right here. Just fucking awesome the curb stomp he gave them. Thor brought his thunder and in like 20 seconds it was nothing but a whimper.
Cap and Mjolner tops both "On your left" and Thors entrance though.
What a beautiful moment. So cool.
Compared to these 3 showing up ?? Nah fam.
This the winner. Especially with the audience reaction...
God I can't even look at this anymore though without getting emotional. What a fucking loss...
Edit: Now I'm tearing up. WTF thread...
Came to say this. Peanut head Ruffalo kills the whole scene. It looked terrible on opening weekend, and it is only going to continue looking worse with time.
This was more visually hype, and I guess personal storyline hype, but "Bring me Thanos!" just gives me chills every time :DNah, it's this.
and all the other heroes being involved and the stakes I guess just make the Infinity War scene more impactful overall IMO
I prefer the endgame battle to anything in LOTR. Partly because I can't really get too invested in any series of movies without any major black ppl in them 🤷🏿‍♂️. The main reason is that the battles always seemed fake/constructed to me. I've been in big group fights it's not all lined up with everyone taking turns like lotr. I like seeing ppl working together/ppl getting jumped. The scatter shot of important characters doing stuff is why it's better to me not worse. You can see ppl from movies you love in the background of most shots doing their things. Antman rocking off on the giant worm then dipping off to do his own thing is better to me then legolas Scaling a mammoth then killing it. Followed by a cool cinematic slide down its tusk. Looks too movie-ish to me if that makes sense lol.
People whining about opening night reactions to comic book movies will never get old lol. Just wait a day or 2 and you will literally never encounter these kinds of reactions. Let people enjoy shit.
Y'know what I wound up liking more than that initial entrance in Infinity War?
That 1-2 second Dynamic Entry Thor does once Thanos assembles the full Gauntlet.
The most anime shit I've ever fucking seen in a Hollywood movie, I fucking love it so much.

Also its not a real fight unless someone gets a knee in the nuts
+1 for Endgame :P
Thor is hands down the most awesome Avenger in the MCU and it's not even close.
I also thought the Cap-Hammer moment was too short and wasted. He got one good hit in and then was just tossed aside.
My favorite moment of all was when Thor calls for Molnir in the time thread right after he and Rocket meet with his mom from the past in Asgard and then leaves with it. That whole sequence was so emotional.
