Now that you.mention it, it would be sort of cool to have a planet-threatening battle last so long that China had time to move their carrier off NYC, and join in air campaigns alongside American and other air forces, as allies.

I'd enjoy that movie.

LET ME EXPLAIN TO YOU WHY YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING
the two Avengers movies are my least favorite MCU films, excepting Iron Man 2, which is borderline unwatchable. I just don't really enjoy Tony Stark that much, and Civil War has the decency to at least make vague gestures in the direction that he's sort of a villain now, though one with mostly noble intentions who always comes to the absolute wrong conclusions about how to enact his high-minded ideals.
Captain America is kind of an incoherent character now, too.
Thor: Ragnarok managed to salvage both Thor and Hulk/Banner at once, a hell of a feat.
Doctor Strange, Black Panther, and the Guardians being heavily involved in the plot means that most of the important cast is interesting characters, though.

I just have no faith in anyone's ability to make Thanos interesting. like, they're even gutting his traditional central motivation (PLEASE NOTICE ME LADY DEATH I KILLED ALL THESE PEOPLE FOR YOU <3 ). and replacing it with...what?
I expect Tony Stark and Steve Rogers will die, because both actors probably want out, and it'd be the logical move. Heck, even Thor could die.

C'mon this is obvious. Couple of the old guard die (Iron Man and Captain) plus a handfull of the side characters, like really legit die to show how serious a threat Thanos is. Dr Strange loses his time stone and can't reverse it. Earth burns and the remaining heroes look down on the planet in that shot in the trailer. Also the last infinity stone is what makes those purple flowers in Black Panther glow and let you talk to dead relatives.

Next movie is "Death of Captain America" or something, Bucky takes up the mantle, they defeat Thanos with help from his daughters or someone who has a personal grudge sacrificing themselves, and Starlord rebuilds the world using his imagination with all sorts of fun 80's pop culture references like putting David Hasslehoff on Mt Rushmore.

It's a license to print money and I can't wait.

Haven't a bunch of those big crossover events changed essentially nothing?

Like, I remember Dark Reign was supposed to invert the order or whatever, instead it lasted barely a year.

It's serialised entertainment. The thing that is happening right now is super important, right up until it isn't and they just start ignoring it.

Again the status quo is what comics are all about. A big shift event is going to be about letting certain actors go. Maybe someone else will take up their mantle that's how comics work. You're complaining about a built in feature of the genre, like saying "im upset this clock always circles back to 12".

The big crossover things remove something, either add or restore something and keep moving, but they always eliminate a lot somehow (even if it's eventually brought back). Infinity War will do the same for certain actors, but you're right it won't be the death of this cinematic franchise. It will be a change in that some folks will no longer be a part of the future stories, but yeah okay you are right they won't just end the MCU because it would be darkly unpredictable.

I don't quite get your complaint you think they're lying and RDJ really wants to sign on for another decade of these? I'm p sure he doesn't and that's why we're going to get this capstone to the first set of MCU avengers to let these folks leave the serialization.

If it's actually two movies I can't imagine anyone important is going to die in the first half because they'd be too afraid of how it might negatively affect the second half.

The other thing that will make people go NOW THE GAME HAS CHANGED is that at the end of part one Thanos will be smirking quite smugly and Black Widow will go, "You can't beat us, Thanas, we have the power of friendship on our side," and all the other Avengers will go, "Yeah!"

But Thanos will smirk smugger and go, "Oh? I have friends too BITCH (Joss Whedon script doctored this movie)," and the he will use the power of the Franchise Infinity Stone to rip open a portal in space and time and then a New Order Star Destroyer will hyperjump in and Kylo Ren will Force Leap out of the ship and go, "Did you think I'd let you have all the fun, Thonos?" And then Thanos will go, "About time you showed up." And then they'll kiss (Black Panther convinced Marvel-Disney to push a different minority identity in all their new movies going forward).

I'm not complaining about the feature, I'm complaining about people going 'yes, this will change things' when we'll get, at worst, some cosmetic change to the roster.

Also, RDJ has been saying he's not really interested in doing the character for a long time, ditto Evans.

It happens in the comics but I agree there's no way they're just going to roll with it like that. Like maybe they still have Nebula get the gauntlet but Thanos will still be around in some like possession/advisory position or something.

I mean they're almost certainly not going to do that, they removed him wanting to kill tons of people to get the humanoid personification of death to notice him (even though this was literally how he was first introduced into the franchise in the Avengers 1 post credits scene), it's already established that both his daughters hate his guts and have left him, like is this guy just gonna be another Steppenwolf (as presented in the Justice League film) dude now with absolutely nothing going on?

Also from what folks are speculating they're seriously gonna kill Iron Man instead of Captain America so they can't have the latter appear out of nowhere with no explanation at a critical moment in the second flick so he can finally scream for the Avengers to Assemble?

Then in a few years Riri comes across a hidden cache of Stark tech, which will interface with a special satellite where Tony had stored his digitized consciousness (uploaded some time before Thanos as a backup but he never finished the project so it's been laying dormant) and will become her A.I. mentor. At that point RDJ will be able to do all his lines in a day at any sound studio he happens to be near.


Unfortunately it seems more like they are going to go the Pepper Potts Rescue route, which is just depressing.
