You gotta see the performance and the passing of the scene, too, which you can't see when you just read the lines

Can anyone help me settle an argument? I watched the movie with Spanish subtitles with my friends and when Tony takes the flip phone from his pocket the words "a flip phone" appeared on screen. I think it's because someone, probably Strange, mumbled that, and they say it's a subtitle that was added by the directors/translators, either for laughs or to help children in the audience. Who's right?

The performance fails to make chicken poo poo into chicken salad.

Did Thanos include himself in the pool of 50%? That might have been a cool aside, to see him get ashed too.

Spermando posted:Thanks! Anyone remember who said it? Strange, Banner? Pretty sure it was Tony, exasperated that not only did he have to suffer the indignity of calling Rogers for help, but also that of course the phone that Rogers gave him was a low-tech, old-fashioned flip phone, as if to rub it in. At least, that's the way RDJ played the scene.

You’re jumping through so many hoops to defend it, just stop. I'm jumping through zero hoops to "defend it" because I don't give a single gently caress either way. I don't have a dog in this fight. If it's bad, it's bad. I did make some effort to look it up because multiple people had a differing opinion and I realized I might be wrong. A.I.

CelticPredator posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUosv677ucA Watching this it seems to me that the scripts intention was to communicate that she feels she has been turned into something with no purpose other than to assassinate, but the problem is the flashbacks focuses heavily on her sterilization rather than on her evil actions, and the ultimate point made in her description of the training is not "I killed a kid" or something but that she was sterilized. It's an unnecessary inclusion and the implication is that the ability to bear children is somehow a key facet in what makes a woman a woman.

I think there are even odds of that happening vs him just doing whatever was necessary with his dracula medal and then not telling anyone anything.

ashpanash posted:I like the representation of magic in the film as being not some harry potter-esque 'it's in your genes and you get to throw bolts of light at each other through sticks' but rather essentially a martial art that requires a great deal of skill, precision timing, intense concentration, and occasionally the utilization of some powerful objects. Dr Strange is that guy in the adventuring party who has all the magic items. All of them. You need something done, he's got an item that a wizard spent four months and a boatload of money to make that does exactly that thing.

The whole conversation will be something like Strange saying "Quinn... you just do what you do best" knowing that Quinn being a dumb broham is probably the one thing that was consistent in all 14 million realities.

There's also no need to stop the movie and follow someone to a Battery Plus store or find a charging cable so Stark can use the phone, just as there isn't a need to explain why Stark would have the phone on his person. It's implied, and it's not a major plot point. It's mundane enough to simply chalk up to storytelling expediency. And it's not like the movie needed to be longer.
