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.

(Edit: actually thinking about it, I think I have an answer: music. I'm a sucker for a good soundtrack, it's something that can make or break a movie or game to me. Sometimes it's the difference between something becoming an all-time favorite, or being completely unremarkable in mediocrity. And for all the things I liked about Black Panther, none were as impressive as its soundtrack. I absolutely loved the sound of it, it made every scene 10 times more exciting to me, and gave the movie a real sense of character and identity. I'm listening to the music now, which is why I brought this up. It's easily the best OST in any Marvel film, so maybe that's why I loved it so much. There you go.)

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.

Actually, I started liking Spiderman due to the games, which were great at the time. After that, I started watching the show and movies, which I liked a lot too. Hulk always looked uninteresting to me, and he still does to be honest. xD I still can't over the fact Homecoming was so good. <3

Btw, I'm in love in Shuri. She's always so interesting to watch. I mean, the support characters in Black Panther were all strong and I liked their contribution to Infinity War. I'm so anxious to see part 2 now... can't imagine what they'll do honestly. Haven't been this excited since The Force Awakens was announced years ago.
