      i can't speak for others. but personally, iron man was the character that i feel most connected to. he was also the one that started the whole MCU saga. RDJ was literally made for that role that i dare say, tony stark is RDJ rather than the other way around.

      mind you i'm not a big follower of the comics. so following this lead me to dabbling in reading up some of the marvel universe and other characters. what endgame means to some of us and me personally, is the closure we've been waiting so long for. without spilling any spoilers to the movie, it has come a full circle in regards to a certain character that i'm so deeply obsessed with.

        I haven't seen Endgame yet but I think you've summed it up nicely. For me, it's about the journey of each character. As moviegoers we've become invested in the them, just as with any show. I grew up reading a lot of Marvel comics so can relate to the films in different ways. Comics were an escape for me as a teenager, so the films imho are an obvious extension of that.

          try “I was never really here.” About as bleak as it gets…save for maybe “The Road” which ismambleak love story.

          Both of these are amazing with the former being quite astonishing.

            The Rover, which also stars Guy Pearce, is bleak as well

              for you wondering about the decision and the direction of endgame, here's a really good interview by the NY times with the scriptwriters.

              beware, SPOILERS AHEAD.

                I went to see Endgame yesterday (finally!) with my son. It's very good. They did a good job bringing together all the loose ends. I have a couple peeves here and there, but overall I'd say 8/10, maybe more.

                  Anyone else pumped for the new John Wick? Just reserved seats for the premiere and can’t wait. 😎

                  Folks were debating the merits of grim movies a while ago and on this vein, I’d like to suggest Zahler’s latest, ”Dragged Across Concrete”, for friends of the genre… All 3 of his movies are an odd combination of awkwardness and holy sh*t -moments and they definitely stand out among the more standard fare.

                    Yup. We love John Wick in our house. I won’t be able to see it on opening day though. My wife is in NYC for work and I’ll be in Indiana.

                      I think there are a lot of John Wick fans here… I basically think they're the best drinking flicks ever made... And hangover pics... Or just lazy midday films...

                        Currently watching a Korean flick called “The Chaser”. Great movie, quite disturbing.

                          The Continental is the one truth and John Wick is our savior

                            There aren't any movie theaters in Indiana?

                                I don’t get the love for the John Wick films. They are ok at best. I think it’s because I struggle to really see Keanu as a badass.

                                  Fair enough.  My wife has zero interest, which is good, since we can never go anywhere by ourselves. I can't remember the last non G rated movie we saw together in a theater.

                                        And yet, he is pretty legitimately a badass if I'm not mistaken, at least with a gun.

                                            There were ten sets of identical working guns from JW3 recently for sale.

                                            Not sure if they sold out yet, they're about $18k for the set.

                                            I'm not going to lie, I was really tempted to cash in part of my retirement and buy this.
