I am going on opening night! Anyone else manage to get tickets?

I went to get them when they went on sale and the sites were all crashed but I was able to get mine later that night...

I found out later that it was super sold out all over and may well shatter all opening night records.


I have only seen the first teaser but it is a comic book so we kind of can guess but I am excited!

I used to be bothered when a trailer had stuff that was not in the movie or as you said made to be misleading... but then I realized those could be the best kind. Like the "Rogue One" spots were very different but the did show the tone of the movie...

i bought a ticket for friday opening weekend today, something i never do. i usually take pains to avoid crowds in order to not have to deal with people & their phones & their popcorn & talking. i'm usually taking in a weekday matinee.

but this feels like a movie that needs to be seen with the fanboys. i have to think it will gain from seeing it with a packed audience, & i'd hope that people who went out of their way to reserve a ticket in advance will mainly be people who really want to be there watching the movie rather than being there to make small talk & browse half-heartedly through twitter.

i went to see infinity war during a weekday matinee, & it was fine. i enjoyed it, think it's one of the best marvel films. but i can't help but think my experience would have been better if i'd seen it in a room packed with sweaty, smelly fan-boy energy, so i'm hoping to get a bit of that for this viewing.

Do you care about spoilers being everywhere by the time the movie is available for home viewing?

By "Endgame" do they mean it's the last comic book movie in this series?

And this isn't the Avengers with Emma Peel, is it?

It's the last movie in the "Infinity" series, which began back in 2008 with Iron Man. But it's not the end of the MCU. Think of it like this, each movie is like a chapter in a book. Avengers Endgame is the last chapter. But this is only "Book 1". Spider-Man: Far From Home, which comes out in July, I think, will be the beginning of "Book 2". And apparently Marvel have many, many "books" still to come. So you can expect plenty more Marvel movies in future. Especially now that they have the rights to X-Men and Fantastic Four back too. The next Avengers movie will probably be another 4 or 5 years away and will have an almost entirely different lineup of superheroes. Spider-Man is definitely still in and I'd say Captain Marvel is almost certainly going to return after the success of her solo movie this year. The rest of the team will be mostly new heroes who haven't had their own movies yet, like Shang Chi, whose solo movie starts shooting later this year, and The Eternals. Expect Fantastic Four and X-Men to show up at some point too.

EmmaMcG says no Emma Peel, huh? Bummer. A clear lack of Emmas, if you ask me.

Emma Peel was in the TV show Game of Thrones for a few years. And when I say Emma Peel, I mean Diana Rigg of course, not Uma Thurman. Her character did not suffer fools gladly.

I will probably feel "alittle bad" about the spoilers etc but ... I also can divert my attention enough from the spoilers that .... it wont matter too much ....

I just watched the first one with Thanos the other night .... it was ok but ... I admit not being that "into it " ...

I am going. Although Capt Marvel was maybe a B- at best I still need to finish this Infinity Stone chapter in Marvel. Can't say I'll be following the franchise afterwards. From Black Panther to Doctor Strange to Spiderman to Cap Marvel...they all seem too boring. Everything's been tried and done as far as character development goes. Ok maybe I'll follow spidey just cause I have a soft spot for him. After that... done!!

i read a review today that wasnt that good (bbc ) and

then another one that was super (local rag not sure where they got the

person who wrote it from ) ...

I am sure i will check it out at some point ....
