I know it's my fault if I still haven't watched it yet, but I managed to survive without this spoiler up until now.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

Don't worry, it's not worth watching

[–] [email protected] 11 points 14 hours ago

If you have seen A New Hope you have seen it, just imagine Episode 4 with more lens flare

If you want to know what happens after Return of the Jedi read Heir to the Empire and its follow-ups.

That's how I felt about infinity war and endgame.

I decided not to watch after finding out it was a 2 parter, then after endgame came out I still hadn't watched it after a good year and a half.

Then someone spoiled the ending out of nowhere in a post and I decided I'd finally watch it.

I'm impressed you've gone this long.

What kinda spoilers for infinity or endgame? I’m curious as to what’s a spoiler for those. I know about the snap, but I know nothing of endgame (I haven’t see a Marvel thing since I went to an iron man 1 prerelease for work, and probably won’t)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago

The big one of endgame is Tony Stark commits the single worst crime in the history of the universe by "un-snapping" the half of the universe that was snapped by Thanos 5 years after they disappeared. No accounting for all the people who are dead in the meantime, no accounting for all the awkward conversations of "oh for me I just blinked and now you have two kids and a new wife" or "who are you people and why are you in my house where am I supposed to live now" all because he lacks the imagination to make the universe go back 5 years while keeping Pepper and his daughter the same.

Oh and

spoilerhe dies in the process too
. That's probably more important to most people.

Vision and Gamora both die but Gamora gets replaced with a time clone. The Hulk and Banner integrate and become Smart Hulk. Captain America wields Mjolnir and Thor forges an axe called Stormbreaker whose handle is Groot's arm.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Interesting! I only know like three of those names hahaha

Thank you!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Vision is Jarvis after he became fully self aware and got a body.

Gamora is a space mercenary who joined the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Bruce Banner is the guy who turns into the Hulk.

Groot is an anthropomorphic tree who only says "I am Groot"

Mjolnir is Thor's magic hammer

[–] [email protected] 1 points 13 hours ago

Thank you! I knew about Mjolnir from history and Ragnarok Online hahaha. I knew Bruce and Hulk. The rest is foreign to me. I do intend to watch Guardians, but I don’t know that I’ll ever see Avengers stuff. Maybe.

You asked for spoilers so I'm not tagging them. Iron man dies, Captain America retires, black widow dies, antman joins in. There's some wonky parallel world time travel hijinks. Think those are all the big ones.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 17 hours ago

Interesting, thanks!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 19 hours ago

I know I saw the movie but I guess it wasn't memorable. 🤷‍♂️

I feel like it might have been spoiled before release? I could be wrong but I remember speculation based on Harrison Ford talking about being too old or plain wanting out of the series.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

Possibly. I didn't follow it that closely.

Disney, the makers of Bambi, the Lion King, and Up paid $4 billion to own Star Wars. They made a trilogy about death.

We didn't expect that, but we probably should have.

Harrison Ford killed Han Solo. He was trying to after the first film.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 12 hours ago

Scott, is that you? Call the gang!!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 15 hours ago

I booked tickets for opening day to see it after work. I was browsing /all before the show and /r/4chan had tagged all their posts "Kylo Ren kills Han Solo, his father".

Those fuckers.

The downvotes on this post are from the crows.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 21 hours ago

Scott's getting murdered all the time.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 21 hours ago

Scott is a prick, and got what's coming to him. Caw.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago

And althoo with you.
