Hello everyone, I know it's been a while since we've done a HISHE review.
There's been a collection of reasons why but you don't need to worry about all that stuff;
so let's just call this getting back on the massive cancled unicorn and give it a whirl.
Shall we? Cancled unicorn shirts are available?
By the way, as well as other HISHE attire if you want to help keep us in business.
Anyway, is this an Endgame review or what? You want to talk some Endgame, right? Of course you do.
So let's -- get -- to IIIIIIT!!
This movie's 3 hours long!
You don't want to pee your pants
'Coz it's endgame baby and you don't wanna drink a thing
All right
Back on the unicorn. Endgame, the biggest movie of all time that brings the incredible conclusion to the insanely
impressive 10-years stack of Marvel Movies is here. And what a finale it is
If you've been keeping up with the MCU this movie is likely to be everything you've been hoping for and then some.
The Russo brothers
deliver on so many levels and this is the kind of film that will mean so much to so many different types of fans.
The cast is amazing. Each Avenger brings a layer of heart to this one. That hasn't always been the case in my opinion.
Dare I say this is the best acting in any Marvel film?
I don't know
I think maybe I'm just sentimental but I thought they really brought it for this film and it made it feel extra special
The movie starts just right.
The aftershock of Thanos has set the tone and it leads down a path to a very exciting conclusion
you don't want to miss. It's really hard to talk about much without spoiling things. This film wants you to experience yourself.
So I'm trying to stay vague here at the beginning
I do think the film delivers so beautifully because of the legacy of films leading up to it,
so as a standalone film, I don't think you can enjoy just the same
It's like saying Return of the King is the best of the Lord of the Rings when I would say, yeah
but it's only because you had the previous movies to bond with all these characters.
It's a journey and Endgame is the climax to Frodo taking that ring to Mordor
I would imagine if you jump in with this one as your first Avengers flick or if you're brand new to most things MCU,
There will be nothing special for you
but if you're like the rest of us, you may cry your eyes out because there are many moments that are just
(It's so good!)
So I will just say I enjoyed it immensely the film went lots of places I expected
It had many awesome surprises and it has in my opinion the most emotional moments in the entire MCU
I actually want to hug the Avengers after seeing this movie. So I say with enthusiasm go check it out!
It's such an awesome achievement.
That's about all I can say for my non-spoiler review. So let's dive into the story, shall we?
Because I'm assuming everyone really has seen it appear, right?
If you haven't seen it, please don't ruin it for yourself just to hear my thoughts. This one is worth the ticket price
I'll be here when you get back. So go check it out and then come back for the spoilers
I can't believe they teased the x-men with Robert Pattinson as Wolverine
That was nuts. I mean my crowd went bananas all the men in the audience were like, yes
Robert he's such a great actor and deserves to be known for more than that dumb twinkle vampire-themed
It doesn't matter anymore in the slightest
I'm kidding that that didn't happen at all
But for real spoilers from here on out people, let's start with what did I think about the story?
The story is pretty full being three hours of twists and turns but I absolutely loved it
I loved the time travel angle
I think the time travel was one of the things we've all been waiting for
So it was kind of cool to see that prediction actually come true
this being the finale the time travel angle gave such a cool way to let characters and
previous movies have a final POW
They crammed so many people in this movie that even some of the directors got to have some final lines
I love that. Did you like Thor Lebowski?
Absolutely Thor being overweight was such a shock and so hilarious, but I thought him taking
Responsibility for the loss and infinity war was very believable. So it actually made a lot of sense
What did you think about Thanos?
I felt like Thanos should have been a lot easier to beat without the gauntlet considering his fighting style and infinity war in
This movie he's almost just as dangerous, but he doesn't have any stones
So I thought it was weird and thought he should be defeated way more easily the second time considering Thor
Absolutely wrecked him at the beginning of the film. So that kind of bugged me. Nobody throws magic at him
Suddenly Stormbreaker isn't a formidable weapon
He can take lightning and he just bats away the hammer and the shield. I mean, come on
I know that wouldn't be as exciting to watch so they had to make him hold his own and
Be terrifying but the avengers should have easily been able to take down Thanos immediately
What did you not like?
Um black widow dying. I didn't like that one bit
Hawkeye gets to live because he has kids but not Ironman. Are you kidding me? I wanted a Hawkeye to make the sacrifice
anything else
I didn't like the courgettes playing fortnight in the year 2023 like her we do assume that the game is still hogging the spotlight
Five years after the snap. Other negatives? I didn't like Hulk at first surprisingly
It took watching the film a few more times to start liking professor Hulk
He's more of a teddy bear in this film which feels really opposite of Hulk's stereotype, but I guess that's what Professor Hulk is
I think Ragnarok Hulk will always be my favorite Hulk, but I didn't think the effects of a Hulk's face in this movie were
incredible I
Get it. Do you think Loki is dead not anymore?
I mean, I always wanted Loki from infinity war to be revealed that he faked his death
But now this movie gives us a little reason to think that Loki could still exist when he portal jumped out with the tesseract
That would mean not only is he still alive? But he's also back to being the evil Loki
We all expect him to be I think that's really cool
I hope they go that way
And this makes me think that's the real reason why Thor ended up going with the guardians at the end
What about that huge battle though?
The final battle is just superhero eye candy galore
I knew they had to do something bigger than
Infinity wars battle and they definitely do for endgame when the portals start to open up and the crowds of people that just keep pouring
Out to fight Thanos army. It's like yes
Yes
after yes
And after that is just like so much going on
You can't even see it all in one go people are punching and blasting and chasing each other over the map
It's insane and full of awesome moments Cap's wielding
Thor's hammer like yeah what everyone else is getting their shots in it was awesome and it all leads up to the big finish
the final snap
When we tease Tony dying in our dubs video, I didn't exactly expect to be totally correct
I sort of hoped that the Avengers were gonna like
All live together somehow
Like alternate-dimension or whatever but they'd all live happily ever after I didn't know it was gonna happen
But I sensed there would be something that happened that made moving forward without certain cast members permanent
But when Tony says "I'm Iron Man" and snaps his fingers
That was so powerful because not only was he saving everyone he was also doing what his father said he could never do
And that's putting the greater good above his own self-interest. I thought that was really cool
And then as Tony's like laying there with his face half charred the way they like had the characters kind of say. Goodbye
with Rhodey first and then Peter and then finally
Pepper. I thought that was
beautifully done and
So cool. What was your favorite? there are so many pleasing moments in this film. It's hard to lock down a favorite
Most of my favorite parts were with the quiet moments stark teaching nebula to play paper football at the very beginning
Black Widow tearing up after talking to Rhody about Hawkeye. I love you
3,000 Thor talking to his mother one last time stark talking to his father one last time cap seeing Peggy through the blinds
Stark hugging Peter the funeral sequence old Steve Rogers. Oh my gosh. Are you kidding me?
That was so perfect. And then the dance
These are the moments that don't mean anything
Unless you've seen the old movies the way they just gave the fans bit after bit
It was so heartwarming and perfect even when it was predictable. It was still so good
I think my personal favorite moment was the funeral with Happy and Tony's daughter when Happy asks her
Are you hungry? What do you like to eat? She says cheeseburgers
I knew that that was a callback to the first Ironman when Tony says I want cheeseburger
But when Happy said I'm gonna get you all the cheeseburgers you want, that squirt hit me right in the heart
I think it's just the dad in me now, but I really loved that moment. And I thought it was such a sweet final
Goodbye from the director of Ironman since Iron Man is what started all this
I think that was my favorite old Captain America talking Falcon though is also pretty dang special and
Hulk sitting in the back of a truck, there's too much in this movie guys. It's just so good
To make a bazillion for jillion monies I
Feel like the theme of this movie was recovery
There were several moments that felt like cap support group where a character confesses their fears to someone and that
Someone encourages them to turn out of their despair Thor is drinking his sorrows away and clearly is depressed
But then when he gets to talk with his mother
She tells him everyone fails at trying to be who they're supposed to be. Black Widow tells Hawkeye
She doesn't judge someone by their worst mistakes when he says you know what I've become
Nebula even tries to convince her past self. That change is possible but ends up having to kill that version of herself
Which is basically symbolic of her letting go of the past
There's a lot of things in this film that I think might encourage someone who may be struggling with things in real life like depression
grief
anxiety stuff like that
If you want to look at Hulk he is someone that represents someone who faced extreme difficulty and found his cure
He is now the best of both worlds. I feel like this movies about healing and helping others
You can't fix what's broken?
There is always time because everyone deserves to get their life back so they can have joy just like Steve and Peggy dancing in the window
Or it wasn't about any of that it was just about making a whole bunch of money you decide
Okay. Those are my thoughts on endgame. I hope you enjoyed them
Let me know what you thought of the movie in the comments. We are definitely working on how Endgame should have ended
This is gonna be a big one. I'm sure but everything is very in the early stage right now
So give us some time to build it. I want to do it good
I want to do it right so don't expect it like next week or something, but it is on its way
