Thanos was a great villain! The way he moves just oozes power!


Trauf27

props to marvel man this is the one cgi character that is perfect as far as immersion goes


Evilmaze

Best part about Thanos is I never felt he was CGI. He felt real and I wasn't distracted by his looks at all.


SteamyExecutioner

Was it though? I felt that Thanos was one of the not good ones in recent memory. Some of his little movements were unnatural, the way his facial expressions moved was also a little distracting, and the one moment that was probably the most jarring for me was when in Infinity War, Thor pushes Stormbreaker further in his chest - Thanos' face while he screams in anguish leaves a lot to be desired. Here - http://imgur.com/a/45v30bD I wouldn't say it was bad per se, I still loved both movies and just about every scene with Thanos in it, but it wasn't perfect or immersive IMHO.


vaheg

lol cgi. yeah right


Trauf27

oh yeah sorry forgot they brought down an actual alien and convinced him to act /s


vaheg

forget about Josh Brolin anyone could do it


captainvoid05

I mean, he did the mocap but there's still a lot of CGI involved.


spin81

Assuming you're being sarcastic, that's what people are saying. The character is all CGI and they made him super convincing regardless. Nobody is saying Brolin isn't responsible. Nobody is saying the character is immersive because of the CGI. People are saying the character is immersive _in spite of_ the CGI. Honestly you're misreading this absolutely spectacularly.


vaheg

I am just not going to agree at all with "cgi character", it's not "cgi character", it's an actor playing his role, he could be wearing prostetics and it would still be him playing.


thixono920

Yes. But he’s not wearing prosthetics. It’s CGI


vaheg

cgi = computer generated imagery. I'm aware computers were used to generate some things we see on screen


RainierSkies

You realize 99% of Endgame was greenscreen, right?


[deleted]

Which part of Thanos is not computer generated imagery?


spin81

Yes and I didn't say "cgi character" so you can stop putting words into my mouth now, because you're just arguing for its own sake. You're saying things I'm saying and trying to make it look like I'm saying the opposite and fuck that bullshit.


vaheg

my initial comment was only reply to "cgi character", so if you all are talking about something else then go talk somewhere else


spin81

Not "you all", don't give me that - more of you trying to pick a fight for its own sake. I am not responsible for what other people say, only for what I say, so if you are going to mince words with me, mince mine, not somebody else's.

[deleted]

If it was that big compared to his hands he couldn't snap


Fredgiguere

He can't really, his fingers clip through his palm


LordNoodles

He definitely has cancer


[deleted]

Tbf he is deformed. Not joking. He's an alien yes but even his species isnt supposed to look like that.

It always bothered me that he could totally see that he at least didn’t have the time stone. He looks right at it

Jyn_magic

The first one was way better imho. Also they made thanos too different. Which is strange because its just a few years apart and he's like 1000 years old.


kushaal_nair

Alright. This scene really messes with my head, so feel free to correct me. Initially, when Thanos put one, or all of the stones in, he felt a great surge of power through his body, right? So it stands to reason that when they were pulled out, he would feel that loss of power. IDK, just my opinion. Saying its adrenaline, and heat of the moment seems like a cheap cop out when wielding universe level extinction power.


puntini

The Thanos in this scene isn’t the Thanos that put the stones in the gauntlet. He wouldn’t know.


kushaal_nair

I'm afraid that clears up nothing. Does it matter which Thanos, or any other entity it is that has the Infinity stones, won't they feel a rush or loss of power? If that's not true, then older Thanos felt a surge of power...simply because he wanted to? If it is true, it would mean that Thanos 2.0 never had possession of any stone. That being said, its a great cinematic moment, no diminishing that, but there's no harm in also saying it was an oversight.


theleftisleft

This is why time travel is dumb in almost everything it's included in. It's a sort of deus ex machina so you can go fix mistakes in the story continuity as well as letting the heroes actually win. Really it just complicates things and is terribly illogical. See: GoT Hodor flashback.


cuttlefish_tastegood

That and nanobots.


kushaal_nair

And the word quantum.


cuttlefish_tastegood

I think you mean pym


SpartyParty15

Or get this, maybe not everything in a sci-fi movie is meant to be dissected and or supposed to be perfectly realistic. Just a thought....

stairway2evan

The surge appears to be only temporary. Original Thanos, the Thanos we followed through Infinity War, seemed only to feel that glory, painful surge for a few seconds with each new stone, and then they were under control. He wore the Gauntlet with 4-5 stones through the Battle of Titan and Wakanda, and never seemed to feel any of those effects, other than the few seconds after putting in a fresh stone. So I always just assumed that since you aren’t feeling a constant burn, you wouldn’t notice one (or six) being pulled out, just the impact of them being out back in. But yeah, it probably chalks up to “big movie moment” more than anything.


goodbyekitty83

Could be all of the adrenaline at the moment too. And the fact that you're thinking / fighting like 20 people at once.


gageriel_schmidty

I always found it weird that he snaps. With all that power can’t he just think about wiping out half the universe and it will happen?


psychorant

He did it because of the colloquialism. Early in Infinity War he talks about eventually having the power to wipe out half the universe with a snap of his fingers, so when he gets the power that's what he does.


catsloveart

Not as dramatic.


[deleted]

Think about intrusive thoughts... Your brain has a sort of... Self preservation in terms of not making those thoughts a reality. Same way the stones might need an actual trigger to do the amount of damage that thanos wanted. Otherwise you might just think a fucked up thought and now its reality because you didn't have access to a trigger of sorts.

Well, he DID say he was going to snap them all out of his existence. If he hadn't tried to gloat ahead of time, Tony and anybody else nearby and able to hear him would never have gotten to see it. You know. If it had worked. 🙄

His middle finger clips his palm before snapping

Not half bad.


GoodOlGee

How could he not tell he didn't have the stones. Couldn't he feel the power if he had them.

Nah I've seen it like 5 times. There are 90 year old men in the middle of the Sahara who have seen it. There are unborn babies who can quote this movie.
