That makes sense. Btw, I totally missed the "anti-Vision" spear part. There was so much going on that it made me excited and distracted me sometimes. That's why I'm going to see it a second time this weekend (saturday). I want to catch details and stuff, not to mention the awesome fights.

And yeah, it's hard to dislike the universe even for someone whose favorite heroes were from DC as a kid (Batman and Wonder Woman). It's like I said, I've never been huge on super heroes, but the ones I liked the most as a kid were from DC, aside from Spiderman, so it's kind of surprising to me that I'm falling in love with the Marvel Universe. 

About Black Panther: I've seen it and I really liked it. Thought it was overhyped a bit, but still a great addition to the MCU. Now I'm looking forward to Captain Marvel... that's going to be very interesting.

I see. This seems to be the general "internet consensus", if that's a thing, about Black Panther. I really struggle to understand it, as I couldn't see anything in the movie that wasn't amazing, and mostly everyone I know personally considers it to be easily one of the best superhero movies ever.

As for your favorite heroes growing up, well, it speaks for itself. You're not huge on superheroes, so your favorites were very much the most mainstream ones - since Spider-Man was Marvel's only truly mainstream hero before the MCU, except maybe Hulk, he was always going to be your favorite. I mean, he definitely was my favorite growing up and I'm sure he was mostly everyone else's, too.

I've seen Infinity War twice, and I'm thinking about a third time already. I think it'd be a good experience to maybe go alone the third time, it really allows you to focus more and soak in the movie and catch all the little details and dialog nuances and all (that's a lot of "and"). I guess I really just can't help myself when there's Guardians of the Galaxy on a cinema screen - I can only imagine how much less I'd have enjoyed Infinity War if not for them, which isn't at all to say the other characters aren't awesome too, but, you know.

The "anti-Vision" spear thing though, it wasn't explicitely explained or anything, so I'm not sure you really missed anything. I just called it that because well, any other spear in the universe would just go through Vision.

I think the line he says is "I wasn't able to phase to dodge it" to which Wanda asks him if that was even possible, to which he replies "I didn't know it was" so Vision and her are shocked that they had the power to stop him being able to have super powers.

Keep in mind him being able to Phase does 2 things, he can change his body so that he has really low density by phasing his matter into another realm and being able to pass through things like Ant Man in Civil War, but he can also Phase more matter into this realm and make his body harder than diamonds which is what would stop him being stabbed... or from having the mind stone ripped out of his forehead, without the ability to control his phasing, Vision has almost no super powers other than his intellect. (afaik, could be wrong)
