Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: Re: I was mostly bothered by how dumb they made Thanos’ goals

[quote name="laudablepuss"][quote name="blackwater"]Kill 50% of everyone one time and then retire Yes that will solve all the problems I guess if they had come up with more realistic goals like limit population over time, it would have raised actual moral issues rather than just being “purple man bad.” The time travel subplot was retarded even for capeshit, but it was more lazy writing than anything central to the story. They could have written it to make sense we without really changing much but they just didn’t care about the nerdrage of internet autists[/quote] I assumed this was half of all intelligent life, because most non-ant animals have natural limits on their population growth. But then it transpired that they meant like, half of all dandelions were snapped out too. What. Here's another awful moment: the girl power superhero moment. Two things suck about this: first, why is Pepper here. She is a nobody, and if you have an iron man suit, that doesn't make you a superhero. Tony is a mixed martial arts badass, has his awesome AI to help him, and generally works at this all the time. But she just shows up and we're expected to believe can kick butt? We already established that she never wears that thing. But worse than that is the original girl superhero of the MCU isn't there: Black Widow. The MCU fucked her over so hard. She should have had her own movie by 2013 at the latest, and now they kill her off before the great big all girl show. :( I generally disagree completely with MM's view of the color and tone of the Marvel movies, but the end of Edamame is so drab and crap. They spent forever making this ending, too.[/quote]
