After I Watched Avengers: Infinity War - Here's What I Learned About Avengers and Thanos

It beats Star Wars for box office record. Big bad Thanos is waging war on big screens. People are talking about it.

Well, The Avengers: Infinity War is indeed worth talking about.

This movie is one of the most thrilling cinematic wars that every movie enthusiast in the Philippines should see, (and even not-so fan of Avengers). As usual, it’s filled with incredible and breath-taking fights scenes. But more than that, you could learn so much from it; not only from the protagonist but also from the villain. The villain is actually I guess is the best villain I’ve ever watched yet. The journey was both spectacular and thrilling.

So what did I learn from the Avengers?

1. People/friends before powers. Thanos was able to get the stones which gave him extraordinary power because of what is like blackmailing, using its opponent’s emotion to get what he wanted. He was able to get each stone in exchange of the life of the character whom one is attached or closed to. He was able to get the space stone from Loki because of threating to kill Thor, the latter’s brother and god of thunder. Thanos was also able to make Gamora agree to bring him to where the soul stone can be found by torturing the latter’ so called sister Nebula. 

2. We all need teamwork. Apparently, the Avengers is a team that fights for people. Thanos has been too powerful but with teamwork, the hero and guardians were still able to do their best to somehow save half of the universe.

3. Things should be equal and fair. Every Avenger has played an equal part in fighting the Big bad Thanos. Doctor Strange, Iron Man, and Spider Man take the flight to the former home world of Thanos. Thor, on the other hand, travelled with Star-Lord and the Guardians of the Galaxy to look for the place where they can find a replacement to his then destroyed powerful hammer. Scarlet Witch, Bruce Banner, and Captain America defend the planet as well as the vision stone, shoulder-to-shoulder with Winter Soldier, Black Panther as well as his loyal warriors.

What did I learned from Thanos?

This may sound ridiculous but I learned that you could get what you want if you just focus and put all your effort and time into it. He faced too many struggles to get the infinity stone, including the need to sacrifice the one he loves.

It’s also just amazing to know that no matter how bad he is portrayed, he has still this side that knows how to love. 

He also showed how perception can change everything, especially how you see the good and evil. He perceive killing as showing mercy. 

The lessons that can be learned from this movie are too many to note. 

In a nutshell, not only does this movie entertains. It is simply spectacular and delivers lot of lessons that we could use in life. 

However, to fully understand and appreciate the movie, it would pay off if you’ll take time to watch the previous Avengers movies beforehand.

Spiderman Actor Tom Holland Has Shot His Peter Parker Cameo For Civil War

        Superhero movies usually end up ditching the mask in the climactic scenes so they can see the face of the star behind. But after the success of Iron Man where we don’t see the face in the costume most of the time, it has become the norm for other superhero movies to do the same. After all, they wouldn't want their lead to do the stunts all the time and get hurt. It can also save them some time where the star wouldn't be needed on the filming location, with the scenes being filmed by a stuntman instead. And now that stars are signed up for multi-picture deals, this method will help them keep their stars from getting tired of playing the role.

This is what happened with Spider-man, who has apparently shot his scenes on Marvel's Captain America: Civil War even before they found an actor to play as Peter Parker. In an interview with the Vulture, Spectacular Spider-Man writers John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein told that the cameo is already done. Goldstein talks about going to Marvel to look at the footage of Tom Holland's came as Peter Parker in the upcoming film. "We hear good things," he said. "We might even get to look at the Spidey suit, which is exciting."

Even though Tom Holland has just finished his Peter Parker cameo in the filming location, this doesn't mean that he is yet to film the Spider-Man scenes. Spider-Man has been on the filming location for a while now, being played by stunt men. Tom Holland is only needed for the Peter Parker scenes, and can simply record his dialogue over the scene in a studio somewhere.

  With all this talk of a costume, one photo of the outfit is yet to appear online. There were some rumors of a fanart that became the basis of the home-made costume, but those are simply speculation for now. Another rumor that appeared was the cast list that was leaked online earlier. Daley was quick to dismiss this, saying that "We've discussed the characters, but nothing is certain yet, for sure".

Whether Spider-Man will be in the movie for an extended time or just a small cameo, we have yet to confirm. But fans definitely hope that he has more scenes than a cameo. Essentially fighting alongside the Avengers and such. What we've heard from Birth Movies Death however, is that whether a small cameo or not, his fight scene will get the fans excited, not because of how epic it is, but because of how dorky and unlikely the superhero fight will be. If it's true, then the battle will surely be one of the most anticipated scenes in Captain America: Civil War when it opens to theaters on May 6th, 2016.
