25. Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending?

Thanos's plot to kill half of all life in the galaxy in Infinity War was stupid and the Avengers' decision in Endgame to undo it but only kinda was even stupider and all of Marvel's attempts to deal with the aftermath in Spiderman: Far from Home and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier just drive home how very absurd those plot points are, and I refuse to allow any of it to enter into my personal MCU headcanon.

I CANNOT ALLCAPS ENOUGH TO CONVEY THE DEPTH OF MY AGREEMENT.

Honestly, as soon as they killed off all the Asgardians who had just survived Thor: Ragnarok I was in "this movie was a stupid-ass decision so I'm electing to ignore it" territory, but Thanos's plot really was the nail in the coffin. I haven't even seen any of the others you've listed here, because I hated Infinity War so much and have heard nothing to suggest that it's gotten any better. (I do kind of want to see TFatWS, but only kind of, and what I really want is a possibly impossible supercut of only the good bits.)

I agree with you and also every other comment here. I know it’s several years later now but I remain utterly baffled that anyone thought IW/EG was a good plot to have!!! I remain annoyed about it enough that I haven’t actually watched any of the subsequent films or tv shows because I don’t want to watch everyone else struggle to deal with the stupidity that was Thanos’s plan and then the plan to sort of fix it but not really. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy???
