“The end of a melody is not its goal: but nonetheless, had the melody not reached its end it would not have reached its goal either. A parable.” – Friedrich Nietzsche
Well! Did Todd still have the same opinion after his rewatch? Either way, I sorta side with Wes on this one. A very long winded “arbitrary” (word of the day) weak follow up to an otherwise masterpiece (infinity war). Could also be that I felt a bit burned out with marvel movies by the time it came out. Which sucks because I liked the overwhelming majority of the MCU. I’m surprised the captain America movies weren’t in your list of favorite movies of this universe. I loved all of those. Particularly winter soldier. Anyway great stuff. Bye.
Y’know, the first Cap was fairly dry to me, felt like it was trying a little hard to have a heartbeat and just never connected for me. But Winter Soldier and Civil War were damn damn great!
As for Endgame, def hear you on being a little burned out. I don’t know if I was burned out before watching it, but I definitely was afterwards.
