I really like how this Thanos was portrayed and this answer fits that character. I saw it as that he accepts the personal losses that come with a win, and this pretty much confirms that.

Also, is it just me or is the site extra slow today?
Luminus - 8/1/2019, 5:11 AM
@MalseMarcel - If it was any slower, it would be frozen.
Kurne - 8/1/2019, 2:46 AM
FUN FACT people are now claiming that they also stole Thor chopping Thanos' head off from Zack Snyder's original idea of Justice League with Diana chopping off Steppenwolf's head.

That bastard Geoff Johns is a snake I tell ya.

@Kurne -

You can't steal an idea that was never used in a film that doesn't even exist.

Humperdink - 8/1/2019, 2:51 AM
It didn't seem that he was in any condition to stop them either way, but I'm sure he probably didn't care if he died at that point. The work was done. I just don't think saying he let them do it means anything when he couldn't stop them anyway.

The brotha was brunt up, stone-less, crippled, and eating space beans & rice. 🤭

@Humperdink - this

@Humperdink - All beans are space beans bruh.

Origame - 8/1/2019, 2:56 AM
Yeah we already established these guys dont realize what they're writing. They seem to think steve rogers travelled back to the main timeline past, even though thats against the rules for timetravel they established.

Captain marvel was able to take a hit from thanos without even flinching by the end of the movie. And thats thanos in his prime. How can she somehow not be strong enough to fight a much weaker version of thanos?
Kumkani - 8/1/2019, 3:08 AM
@Origame - She used her full powers against Thanos towards the end of the film and not in the beginning
Ryguy88 - 8/1/2019, 3:24 AM
@DnA - that contradicts the statements from this article. It says Thanos let the Avengers kill him, including Captain marvel and whatever powerlevel she happened to have at that moment.
LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 3:40 AM
@DnA - Can't believe I'm saying this but I 100% agree with @Origame on this. She didn't use her full powers on him at the beginning because 1) The goal was not to kill him before forcing him to reverse the snap or get the stones so they could. 2) Thanos never fought back at all, why would she need full power to restrain someone who is surrendering?

Also it's not like she gain more power between the beginning of the film and the end, as far as we know she was always powerful enough to take a power stone punch to the face and live.

Which means she could have easily went full Kratos on Thanos in the beginning of the film if she wanted to.

Origame - 8/1/2019, 4:58 AM
@LongMayHeReign - wow. Agreement from longmayhereign? Im happy for it, but this feels like a sign for the apocalypse at this point. Better go see if dogs and cats are living together.
LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 9:11 AM
@Origame - I'm never above agreement when it makes sense, but it's nice and sunny over here and my dog tried to [frick] my neighbor's cat up this morning so it's not end times yet.
newhire13 - 8/1/2019, 11:31 AM
@Ryguy88 - They’re saying that he didn’t put up a fight or defend himself.
Ryguy88 - 8/1/2019, 12:43 PM
@newhire13 - yeah, and if he was in a weakened state at the beginning, if he wanted to put up a fight, how would he be able to when the same writers have Captain Marvel not flinching vs a full powered Thanos with the Gauntlet later on in the film?

Thanos didnt make a choice at the beginning to be killed because he couldnt stop it from happening if he wanted to.
Robby - 8/1/2019, 3:19 AM
The more the writers and Russos talk about this movie, the more sick of it Im becoming. Why can't they leave it up for the fans to interpret this movie like Kubrick and Nolan did.
LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 3:29 AM
@Robby - They aren't openly gong around talking about it to anyone who walks by tho. This was from the film commentary, and other than the SDCC panel where they openly talked about it, they are being asked questions and simply answering them. They had a huge part in the making of the highest grossing film in history so it's natural that they are being requested for numerous interviews.
Robby - 8/1/2019, 10:17 AM
@LongMayHeReign - Great now I look stupid because I forgot to mention that I know this the the film commentary. Aside from that, they're really making this film seem forgettable with everything they're revealing about this movie that we didn't see. I guess it's just me though.
LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 10:28 AM
@Robby - I think it is just you because majority of people don't even care about what could've been they just care about what is. Yet at the same time I can understand you feeling that way. That's personally why I don't click on every Wilding article about the subject, he has a tendency of over saturating a topic to where you don't care anymore.
CaptCoulson - 8/1/2019, 10:54 AM
@LongMayHeReign - But also I have no doubt that this site, especially certain employees, have taken where there was one particular interview done by, say, the Russos at a given day and venue, and there wound up being like 3-5 different articles created from it, each highlighting one separate answer/topic.
That can help make it seem like they're just out there talking about it constantly when it's not quite the genuine case.
LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 11:08 AM
@CaptCoulson - Oh without question that's a fact. The media ruins everything so they can push agendas and make money.
Ryguy88 - 8/1/2019, 3:22 AM
It seemed pretty evident that he was just too weak to do anything. They could basically make another movie about everything the writers and directors said happened but didnt actually happen.
CorndogBurglar - 8/1/2019, 3:32 AM
So can everyone finally admit that Endgame isn't the gigantic masterpiece everyone claimed it was initially, and that Infinity War was much better?
PantherKing - 8/1/2019, 3:35 AM
@CorndogBurglar - Nah Endgame was better IMO.
LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 3:49 AM
@CorndogBurglar - Not sure how this makes the film any less masterful imo. If they want to interpret that scene that way it doesn't change how interpret it. I always believed Thanos let them kill him because he never tried at all to fight back, even with his good arm which Rhodey was holding which is strong enough to deliver hurting blows to the Hulk.

But there's no way Thanos has any chance of surviving that encounter whether he wanted to or not that's just factually obvious.
Kurne - 8/1/2019, 3:52 AM
@CorndogBurglar - only if everyone who was claiming last year that Infinity War wasn't the gigantic masterpiece everyone claimed it was, will stop pretending they think Infinity War is a masterpiece now just so they can downplay Endgame all of a sudden.

JamesPunn - 8/1/2019, 4:43 AM
@CorndogBurglar - Nah. I hardly ever rewatch movies I've already seen unless it's with someone else, but with Endgame, I fully intend to sit down and take in all three hours as soon as the Blu-ray drops. It's just so well done.
regularmovieguy - 8/1/2019, 5:11 AM
@CorndogBurglar

IW > EG (for me)
CorndogBurglar - 8/1/2019, 5:27 AM
@LongMayHeReign - neither are "masterpieces". Infinity War just raised one issue for me, which was the fact that Thanos' plan made absolutely no sense.

But Endgame has so many issues and even the creators of the film can't explain them.

At least in Infinity War you could convince yourself that Thanos is just crazy. In Endgame they contradicted rules they set up in the same film that kind of make some things non-sensical. And also, for me anyway, time travel was a cop out.

I don't dislike Endgame, but it's not the end all be all Marvel film.
MotherGooseUPus - 8/1/2019, 5:31 AM
@CorndogBurglar - i agree. IW is better (Imo) than Endgame. Both are my top 2 fav MCU movies to date
CorndogBurglar - 8/1/2019, 5:33 AM
@LongMayHeReign - I didn't mean to sound like THIS is the one reason why Endgame isn't a masterpiece.

It's just that I don't see how people can claim Endgame is a masterpiece when you take all the issues that have been discussed a million times and then to find out that we are still getting silly explanations for things that weren't portrayed in the film.

This comment he's making doesn't make sense. You mean to tell me that Thanos didn't care if he died because he already accomplished his goal, so he just doesn't even try? Even though he's still strong enough to take them on? Come on...
Victorg1983 - 8/1/2019, 5:59 AM
@CorndogBurglar - I loved IW and that movie will be very hard for anyone to top in my eyes. as far as EG to me the movie was pretty much built around that final battle which was nearly perfect. but the rest of the movie left a lot to be desired IMO
heisei24 - 8/1/2019, 7:21 AM
@CorndogBurglar - I still prefer Endgame honestly.
Sure, Thanos' rush for the stones was great and thrilling, but Endgame's down-to-earth drama, plus delivering a great conclusion was just a lot more satisfying to me.
bkmeijer2 - 8/1/2019, 8:16 AM
@CorndogBurglar - In my opinion Infinity War is even the best MCU movie, but definitely not my favorite. That honor still goes to The Winter Soldier
LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 9:16 AM
@MalseMarcel -

LongMayHeReign - 8/1/2019, 9:36 AM
@CorndogBurglar - It makes perfect sense actually, what more does he have left to fight for? He has no more purpose, no more family, no more drive to go on. He was going to sit on that farm and wait to die of natural causes which for him could be hundreds of thousands of years.

How many times in movies or real life have you seen people die after battling an illness or just die of old age even though they clearly have the strength to live much longer or fight the illness? Remember Padme dying of a broken heart even though she was physically fine? She lost the will to live and gave in to death. Thanos spent a lifetime to fulfill one goal and he accomplished it, and then to his knowledge made sure it could not be undone giving him nothing left to do.

Now whether you want to debate the writers as to him actually being able to defeat the Avengers in the state he was in and with them having Carol? Well that's a different story, he gets murked by them easy!
