It was like Badness x Shitty and then exponentially multiplied! "First....we kill off HALF THE UNIVERSE. Thanos wins! The Avengers are losers! It's daring and gritty and dark! THEN....well Tony has to be motivated by his moppet, not by any of the people he's known for the past ten years, so we can't kill the moppet. So we keep everything the SAME, but bring everyone BACK. All at once. And oh yeah, Tony and Steve and Bruce all have this development that makes them really different, but it's gonna have to happen offscreen so we have time for Tony and Howard to catch up. But then -- this is the really great part -- we're gonna KILL half the OG Avengers and take the rest off the table!" (this was before we knew about all the shows) We called it the feel-bad superhero epic of the summer.
I mean it really reads like The Worst Comics Event Ever (except maybe Hydra Cap) that wound up being about how great one Avenger was, when the whole point was this weird little group of superhero misfits came together &c &c. Yes it's nice RDJ cleaned up and became a dad again but that is not why I see superhero movies! and HOW could they not mention Natasha ONCE during that memorial --
....lol I will hate this movie til I fucking die. I'm going to sue Feige for pain and suffering.
