Was hoping Thanos would have said “Come Get Me” like he did on the cover of Infinity Gauntlet #4. I want the "Snap Fingers and Half the Universe Dies" moment. |

I want Thanos to be presented as such a threat that we want to see him fail. What's been missing in terms of villains is a sense of wanting to see the heroes overcome them.
What I see in my head is the heroes failing to take Thanos down, not being able to touch him, and through it all he's just gloating while rubbing salt in their wound thus making the audience hate him even more. Then at their bleakest, darkest, and emotional moment it all seems fruitless when the heroes are either broken, bleeding, or near death as Thanos is delivering an evil monologue. Just as he's about to deal them a final crushing blow Cap's shield smacks him dead in the mouth and he says "As long as one man stands against you, Thanos, you'll never be able to claim victory."
I feel the audience reaction of that moment would be epic.

Spoiler for a possible accessory Thor might use in Infinity War: {Spoiler}I'm curious as to why they're referring to the axe as Stormbreaker as opposed to Jarnbjorn, which seems like it would be a much more current reference. |

Because Stormbreaker puts butts in seats, and moves the merch! Seriously, I think it might just be that's a more marketable name. |

That thought did cross my mind, but then I thought "they never had any problem marketing Mjolnir". |

I feel the audience reaction of that moment would be epic. I’ve got a feeling that Thanos is going to completely destroy the Avengers while treating Nebula as a non factor. Nebula takes the Gauntlet from him and reverses a lot of the things he did leading to that shield to Thanos’ stupid face happening you want. Followed by those two words that everyone has waited for since Avengers 1 and got teased with in AoU... |

Thanos wipes the floor with everyone, and Carol Danvers's arrival is treated as a big damn hero moment.

I just want him to mop the floor with all the overexposed characters who need to take a backseat already (Hi, Tony Stark). |

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if the soul gem is buried in Wakanda's vibranium mound. It would explain why the heart-shaped flower grants T'Challa and Killmonger the ability to cross over to the spirit world, given that vibranium has become a part of Wakanda's flora.

That's exactly where I think it is. That makes perfect sense. |

That would make sense considering the massive Outrider invasion on Wakanda. |
