Avengers: Infinity War (2018) ✦ Full-Length Watchalong Reaction
Added 2023-07-07 21:59:51 +0000 UTCI'm baaaaack! 🥳 Happy Friday to you all! I hope you all had a really great past week while I was away. I literally watched this movie last Thursday and when the credits were done, I had just ONE HOUR until I had to leave my house for the whole week and I hadn't packed. 😅 The full-lengths take much longer than one hour to edit, export, upload, and share here (usually around 4-5 hours), so there was no chance of getting this out before I left - sorry about that! I'm super glad I managed to squeeze in the time to watch this before the trip though. And I was able to talk to my brother about it as he drove me to the airport. 😊 [Direct link here.]
Enjoy! 🧡

2023-07-10 18:37:20 +0000 UTCImagine having to watch Infinity War when it first came out and then having to wait an entire year to see Endgame 😅 The agony!!! 😫 Your reaction was awesome as always Kaiielle!

2023-07-10 16:15:47 +0000 UTCYep, I truly have NO idea how Endgame is gonna go, but I'm so excited to find out! Thanks for watching.

2023-07-09 02:54:50 +0000 UTCThe sound design during the "dusting" after the snap was such a brilliant choice. No music. No extraneous sound. Just the limited dialogue and wind noises. Watching it opening day in the theater was one of the most memorable theater experiences I've ever had. All you heard were a few sniffles and gasps in the audience as each character disappeared. There was minimal conversation during the credits as well. It was like collective shock and awe at what we had all just witnessed. It was a very daring way to end it. People compare it to Empire Strikes Back in that it ends with the bad guy "winning." But with Empire it ended with us knowing there was a basic plan to get Han back so there was still hope. This ended with no plan. Just Steve's, "Oh God," and Thanos's smug little smile as he stares into a sunset.

2023-07-08 21:15:10 +0000 UTCThanks for watching! Enough going on story-wise that it didn't feel the movie was relying on the humor too much like I've felt with some other MCU films.

2023-07-08 18:04:43 +0000 UTCHahaha, after Ragnarok, I was expecting you to haaate the humor in this movie. RIP It looked like you had a ton of fun, and it was cool to rewatch with ya! Thanks for the thoughtful content

2023-07-08 17:45:05 +0000 UTCFinally! Up to this point in the MCU this was the only one to top "Winter Soldier" for me. No judgement that you said you currently feel the Cap movies are better. When this came out, we didn't necessarily know about Endgame, so the victorious villain ending was a shock. The build up for Thanos was so huge. Hinted at in end credit scenes, the puppeteer behind the curtain setting things in motion. When I first saw the movie, I assumed that Hulk was not coming out because he was scared, after getting wrecked by Thanos. Another fun bit, they made one last jab at the end of the credits. Usually we get "hero x will return," but this time "Thanos will return"

2023-07-08 14:45:54 +0000 UTCTotally understand your Quill defense and I agree! And LOL welp I guess I better get ready for people to be upset with me for not being emotional at the snap? My brain over here was just like Okay cool visuals, but they're not GONE. I refuse. This will get fixed. 😂

2023-07-08 14:44:29 +0000 UTCLoved the reaction!!! I love Bucky & Rocket meeting. The way Bucky just picks up Rocket without missing a beat, or not being shocked about a talking raccoon that is shooting a high powered gun at raging space dogs. Then, proceeds to use Rocket to create a spinning spray of bullets and kill said raging space dogs, the whole scene is perfection. Bucky’s face and the walk off after Rocket tries to buy not only his gun, but his arm as well, comedy gold and the meeting we all needed given Rocket’s known prosthetic body parts fetish. The Cloak of Levitation is hilarious as well in this movie. I love it when the Cloak is mimicking Tony as he is talking to/parenting Peter 😆 good stuff. Looking forward to the edit and review! Also, WELCOME BACK! Hope you had a good vacation!

2023-07-08 09:12:18 +0000 UTCI am not a GOTG fan, and I am especially not a fan of Quill. However, it does bug me when people get so mad at him ,not KL😜 but the many others that have. So, being completely non-biased, I would add this argument to his defense. Dr.Strange saw 14 million+ possible outcomes of the “coming conflict” and he has a photographic memory. If we agree that Strange knew what he was doing when he gave the time stone to Thanos. Then it could be argued that Strange also saw Quill’s reaction after hearing that Thanos had just murdered Gamora. So Quill’s outburst was just as much a part of the path that leads to a victory as handing over the time stone to Thanos willingly was. It could also be argued that instead of pulling the gauntlet off his hand, someone should have tried to cut his hand off his body or better yet just kill him while he is incapacitated 😆 Of course, then we wouldn’t have this awesome movie and set up for the Endgame. So, either way, the way it all went down from the point that Strange looked into the future, is exactly the way it was supposed to go down. In conclusion, Peter Jason Quill aka Star Lord is innocent 👩⚖️🧑⚖️👨⚖️😜😁

2023-07-08 08:52:45 +0000 UTCPure. Peak. Fiction. Easily my favourite MCU movie. An absolute masterpiece in my opinion, my only issue is that like you, I was bummed that we didn’t get a proper reunion with Bruce and Nat, I think the people at Marvel realised a large majority of people didn’t like their relationship in age of ultron so they kinda retconned it in a way. I also wanna defend my guy Quill here from the people who get genuinely pissed at him for what he did (not you obvs lol) Like, imagine finding out the love of your life got killed to fulfill their “parents” completely messed up ideology of correcting the universe, not only that, but that exact same person kidnapped them and held them hostage right in front of you and demanded you to kill her. Like bruh I totally agree with people saying Quill had a part in their downfall, that’s objectively true, but you can’t sit there and tell me you wouldn’t flip the fuck out 😭 Anywayyyyy, lovedddd this reaction, KL. Really interesting seeing your reaction to the snap, most people completely crumble haha😆

2023-07-08 05:36:47 +0000 UTCI have to apologize, as I am the asshole that hinted at Josh Brolin being in the MCU during the No Country premiere. It was stupid of me to say that I look forward to your future review of him at that time. I sincerely apologize. But I do appreciate your reactions a great deal, KL. Thank you.

2023-07-08 03:21:57 +0000 UTCMy 2 cents: I agree wholeheartedly, seeing Peter Dinklage, especially as a dwarf who 'dwarfed' everyone, was a treat. Great reaction, I'll be waiting for more...

2023-07-08 01:58:36 +0000 UTCThanos is GREAT, I am really enjoying him. It's nice to finally have a movie where he has a big presence after being kinda hinted at for a while now through dialogue and like two credits scenes. To your last point, that's hilarious haha I love when things like that happen!

2023-07-08 01:53:09 +0000 UTCI'm currently in mega disbelief that everyone is actually dead/wiped out. I definitely knew that Thanos wanted to wipe out half of life and could do so with a snap, but actually seeing it I was just sitting here like Nah, I refuse to believe they're gone. 😂 Probably makes for an underwhelming reaction, but oh well.

2023-07-08 01:52:01 +0000 UTCWelcome back KL, Hope you’ve had a wonderful vacation. What makes Thanos so compelling for me is the fact that he is not your average two dimensional bad guy, who does bad stuff cause he is evil or on a power-trip. He is someone with a genuine conviction that what he’s doing is right and that it is to the benefit of everyone (who survives). The fact that there is some logic in his plan (like a randomized selection to not favor any groups over others) makes him even more scary. However, when you think about it. The really scary part is that if half of all humans on Earth were turned to dust today… population wise it would ONLY put us back about 45-50 years to the population size of the 1970’s. On a different and totally unrelated note. At around 1:33:30, my watch chimed and immediately after, you pulled out an earbud as it looked like you were listening for something… Just found that so random and hilarious 😂

2023-07-08 01:18:07 +0000 UTCI love this movie a lot. I think it's really funny that since practically the entire scene on Knowhere was made up by Thanos, if I understand things correctly, he would have been the one to come up with the idea of The Collector shouting "Magnificient!" at Gamora. Idk why but that's funny to me. The scene where Cap holds back Thanos for a second during his final approach is always really cool to me, because Thanos genuinely looks very surprised that Cap is that strong. Obviously Thanos isn't using a single Infinity Stone there (I assume you noticed they glow when he does?), and doesn't even need one to knock Cap out immediately thereafter, but still, Thanos on is own is very strong already. Idk if I misinterpreted it but I was surprised when you at first didn't realise what was actually happening even a couple dustings into everyone disappearing. But I guess it's different for you because Gamora's line "The entire time I knew Thanos, he only ever had one goal: To bring balance to the universe by wiping out half of all life." was a huge, and I mean huge, part of the marketing for this movie, so everyone that saw that had that on their mind as his goal when this movie first came out. I wonder how relevant that line and its meaning seemed to you during the movie. I'm excited for pretty much everything yet to come for you in the MCU 👀

2023-07-07 23:57:18 +0000 UTCIt's really cool reading the Infinity War comics and watching the film as a comparison. For one the part where Hulk falls through the roof of the Sanctum Sanctorum is pulled right out of the comic but instead of Hulk it's the Silver Surfer. He warns Strange of Thanos but it's too late as Thanos straight up snaps his fingers and deletes half of life in the universe. His reasoning for doing so is different in the comics, Wants to impress Death by killing a bunch of people pretty much. So the snap happens right at the start of the comic instead of the end like we see in the film. Then the hero's come together to fight Thanos from The Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, etc along with solo hero's as well. Villains as well like Doctor Doom help out so pretty close to how the film plays out where everyone comes together just without most of the teams I've mentioned for legal reasons. Smaller roster in the film but the Guardians show in the film so that's great, Pretty sure Drax the Destroyer was in the comic but this was before he was apart of the Guardians of the Galaxy introduced in 2008. Nebula and Gamora were also in the comic as well.
