Okay, thanks to

I am on this thread lol, and I'm probably one of the earliest to watch Endgame actually... but hey better late than never.
Some of my thoughts on the film:
All the time traveling... thing... theory... despite I get what are they trying to do, but I never thought it would make sense... or why changing the past won't really effect the future the are in, they said it will only create another timeline, so does that mean they are traveling to a different kind of timeline? And it seems that "Can't been seen by anybody" from the third Harry Potter doesn't apply because Captain America just beat himself...
The Ancient One and Bruce Banner did proper explanation, still don't get how they can return all the stones though...
And here's something that's gonna be controversial, I'm glad that Captain Marvel didn't become the one to truly defeat Thano or being in majority of the game, I don't expect her to be totally MIA either but yeah... how she only appears in the first part and latter part of the movie was ok.
Also the death of Tony Stark was already speculated in some sort thanks to Spiderman Far From Home trailer, so I was prepared a bit when begining to watch Endgame and was even more sure when Doctor Strange said to Tony Stark that it won't happen if he told him how can they win to make that one chance of winning come true.
And come to think of it, it seems that all of the original Avengers "died" in some sort besides of Tony Stark and Black Widow... Captain America turned old, Thor joined Guardians of the Galaxy, Hawk eye retires (again), and Bruce merged himself with Hulk, so that's why we never see Bruce really smash stuff.
I am also delighted on how even the Chinese subtitles make some good localization.
One is that when Bruce Banner and Rocket went to Norway to find Thor and found out he became fat and playing Fortnite (Sot of)... Rocket said he looks like a melting ice cream.
In Taiwan's Chinese sub it translate to, "You look like a Chinese Maitreya..."
Maitreya is probably the best metaphor to describe Thor's body 5 years later... because if you do not know, Maitreya is a type of budda that in China or Chinese world looks like this:

Also there are confusing parts in Endgame, like plenty... especially the ending.
- Peter Parker is back to school, and his friend Ned didn't age... so... my guess is they can only give explanation that nearly of Peter Parker's school's staff and student were affected by the snap.
- I was expecting 2014 Gamora to be vanished too when Tony Stark snapped his fingers , but Peter trying to search for her was old... also same with Nebula, but Hulk did sort of said that killing younger self won't really affect the future so I'll let that slide.
- What I couldn't slide is how Captain America change his own future... I'm pretty sure there will be some good explanation but still...
captain america is old lol
This is probably the most confusing part ever...
This movie had the mother ****ing Howard the Duck...holy ****
View attachment 212998
This guy technically fought Thanos and his squad
So...
Is Howard the Duck gonna have his own movie in MCU? Um... no?
I know many super hero movies were crap back in 1980s including that Howard the Duck movie, I don't know how can they make Howard the Duck movie good... especially for MCU.
