>>120764479I'm not saying "Oh, too much info, I can't keep up", I'm saying "It's too much information that I don't care about any of it." It's like reading cliff notes or reading a wikipedia. Instead of setting the mood of the final battle, it's just feels like they're rushing to get the fighting going. There's no silence before the battle. For a film that pretty much has four major action set pieces (The opening Hydra base, the Africa Hulkbuster battle, the South Korea stuff, and the final half hour in Sokovia), there's no real tone set that "we're entering the final battle" That's what I mean. The scene happens and we're instantly having the city rise and Ultron bots pop up. It's too much info at a rapid pace that you don't feel what's happening, you're just absorbing without thinking about it.
And when the film pulls shit like "Red Flags for Hawkeye" and everyone calling themselves a monster, you don't pick up on any of these thematic elements cause the film barely gives you time to breathe. The only slow scene is the farm stuff, and that cause a detriment because Black Widow has the womb talk there.
THAT is what I'm getting at! And for fuck's sakes dude, imagine this film from someone who hasn't dived into all the comics lore. To go from "Giant killer robot" to "Hey! Let's make another robot!" right before the final battle, the film gives you no time to think about what's going on. You're constantly analyzing the film knowing where it's heading when you're not looking to what someone who hasn't read the comics, or more specifically, something that is Marvel taht isn't Spider-Man or X-Men stuff. That is why the bludgeoning of information over tone is a detriment.
God, fuck you guy for just using the spectrum excuse when it's more that it's a film that assumes you know all the fucking ins and outs of comic lore.
