This motherfucker was first introduced in fucking Avengers. AVENGERS! That was literally half a decade ago, and the only other movie that actually references him at all is Guardians of the Galaxy. Everybody goes on and on about how these Marvel movies are so great because they had "a plan", like they were all meticulously plotted out ahead of time, but five years and a retarded number of movies later, we still know next to nothing about who Thanos is or why he wants the Infinity MacGuffins. Yes, in his first appearance he is told that doing whatever the fuck he's doing would be like "courting death" and he gives a slick little grin and that's neat, but it's a fucking easter egg at best. If I have to go read a fuck ton of comics in order to understand the plot of a completely unrelated series of movies, I don't count that as effective cinematic storytelling. They had five years to set up this story, but they didn't. It's all going to get pushed to "Infinity Wars". You basically could skip almost every movie in the fucking franchise and be on the same page as everyone else.

After Infinity Wars there will announce a 2029 project called Thanos. The movie will show exactly what he was doing for the time inbetween Iron Man and Infinity Wars. Directed by JJ Abrahms.
I like that his armrests have iron man jets on them
sound like you know exactly who Thanos is and what he wants but you are just mad you got forced to open a wiki-tab instead of being told in cinematic form.
Guess you got the autisms, OP.
I couldn't give less of a fuck about who he is, all I want is the next stage of Avengers. Avengers got a group of rogue heroes together. Infinity War will bring multiple groups of rogue heroes together. Its gonna be cool to see, and I couldn't give less of a fuck about your opinion OP.
All I want is to see some known characters smacking some ass, I don't give a fuck about your feelings. Ciao.
Based OP getting angry over a children's movie
Because marvel doesn't want to blow its load like five movies deep like WB has. They can keep releasing decent flicks and build the franchise, eventually giving this foreshadowed guy the spotlight as villain.
He'll never live up to any hype they're building or the ridiculous wait.
Yeah, it shows how far beyond Stark tech he is.

lel, came here for this
You could just watch the cartoon, or read the comics if you're that "not interested."
What if Thanos kills most of them off and then restarts the universe so he can kill them all over again.
Would that be kino to you? It will allow for recasts and to tell a different story than the one we know.
i yearn for the day capeshit becomes ban on sight
Somebody mad that Justice League was a huge disappointment?
They better end the first IW film with the finger snap
>This motherfucker was first introduced in fucking Avengers. AVENGERS! That was literally half a decade ago, and the only other movie that actually references him at all is Guardians of the Galaxy.
False. Age of Ultron had a Thanos appearance, too. If you are going to sperg out, at least be accurate about it.
I yearn for the day you grow up.
The way to defeat Thanos is to offer him a really comfy chair.
He will sit in it and never be able to leave due to it being so comfortable, thus preventing Thanks from being naughty ever again.
Oh, I'm sorry. I did forget about the 5 secong post credit scene where he delivers a single line about "doing it himself". That fixes everything. Forget every single thing that I said. With that single line, the character was elevated to iconic movie villain status. Thanos is this generation's Darth Vader.
What is the average rating of a DC movie?
>With that single line, the character was elevated to iconic movie villain status. Thanos is this generation's Darth Vader.
Is that an argument a noticeable amount of people are seriously making?
Thanos is operating behind the scenes. We will know more about him when Infinity Wars comes out. Why are you raging so hard over nothing?
amen, brother
>sound like you know exactly who Thanos is and what he wants but you are just mad you got forced to open a wiki-tab instead of being told in cinematic form.
You're right. As long as there is a series of comic books that are in no way related to the plot of a particular movie that explain a characters motives, that movie gets to bypass character development. It's why everybody loved Justice League and BvS so much. In fact, I don't even know why these studios bother writing scripts or hiring actors. By your logic they could have just put up a static image of Capatain America with a caption that read "Civil War" for two hours. Yeah, it would be pretty boring, but all you have to do is go read the wikipedia page and you'll know exactly what was supposed to be happening. Because after all, the point of a movie is not to tell an engaging story, it is to dryly transfer information from one brain to another.
Thanos movie isn't out yet, its like complaining you don't know about civil war before civil war is out. If you are in that situation, just read the wiki m8
This guy is the laziest peace of shit in the galaxy. Why can't he just get off his fat ass and go get the infinity stones himself?
do you even realize how big the universe is?
He is the invincible blue guy, that's all you need to know.
You are right but Disney shill will never give you a satisfying answer. Instead they will spam Chris Evans and RT scores.
Must be pretty fucking small considering how big a role fucking Earth and a small cast of nobodies play in its fate.
if earth had no infinity stones then there would be no movies to be made since earth is irrelevant
It is only because earth is the coolest place in the universe than there is a story to tell.
Marvlel is gonna kill him off like a bitch because they're mad that Brolin is in a FOX X-men movie.
Comics have shittier writing than most things aimed at children, colour me shocked.
Disney is considering buying FOX completely so I don't think they are that mad
The whole "we've had a plan all along" is just a marketing ploy to give the impression everything fits together perfectly.
>Red Skull just vanishes (I guess we can assume he's dead but really it's obvious they were setting up him being absorbed by the cosmic cube for his return in the present day)
>Thor destroys the Bifröst Bridge and strands himself on Asgard, then just shows up out of the blue in Avengers
>Tony Stark is able to reconstruct a crime scene and collect evidence in Iron Man 3; somehow doesn't use the tech in Civil War
>Tony Stark has an operation to remove the shrapnel near his heart (dumb to begin with because why didn't he just do so earlier?) and quits being Iron Man - shows up in Avengers: Age of Ultron none the wiser.
>Thanos movie isn't out yet
And that in and of itself is fine, but then why introduce the character six years prior to his film's release? It would have been like if they introduced Nick Fury and the avengers initiative like they did at the end of Iron Man, but then never referenced it again for like twelve movies.
My problem is that we're being sold this idea that Marvel is meticulously crafting this universe, and that every film they release builds upon the last to form some kind of grand overarching saga, but that's a load of shit. Most of these movies have nothing to do with each other and can be skipped without losing any relevant information. Even movies like Civil War that look like they are built on the consequences of a previous film aren't. Going by the trailer, it looked like the Sokovia Accords came about as a result of what happened in Age of Ultron, but in reality it didn't. It was the result of the conflict at beginning of the movie. All of the information that you needed to understand Civil War is explained in Civil War.
With regard to the narrative structure of the series over all, it is not A happens then B happens so C happens, it's just A happens and B Happens and C happens.
Theres no way they dont. Only ones who live are Dr Strange, possibly Nebula and Scarlet Witch and Cap. Its the only way, and a perfect cliffhanger
So his power levels are top top tier?

>Thor destroys the Bifröst Bridge and strands himself on Asgard, then just shows up out of the blue in Avengers
Odin Force. They explained it in the film.
>>Tony Stark has an operation to remove the shrapnel near his heart (dumb to begin with because why didn't he just do so earlier?)
Fire monster technology. Watch the film.
Stop being retard and actually watch the film will ya?
Problem is they had a "plan", and slowly realized that the plan isn't that interesting, but they have to do it or else they'd get called out on it.
They'll have to force it to be interesting by having the good guys lose for one movie, before letting them win in the 2nd.
how is he sitting in space when there is no gravity to hold him down?
Wasn't he on some kind of rocky planet or something? I think Loki was there groveling on his knees and I don't remember him just floating in the middle of space. Or maybe it was a cluster of space rocks? I don't know these movies are awful.
"Why are the villains motivations explained in the movies in which he's the main villain?"
do you really think any of these people actually watch films?
Rocket powered recliner
His armrests have boosters
This is what you watch
he literally destroyed everything once and restored it all back since he has no one to fight that's how powerful he is.
>"Oops"
Again, that in and of itself is not a problem. By showing Thanos at the end of Avengers and in other movies, the tacit implication is that each of these films are building toward him when they aren't. People are acting as if every one of these movies is a cog in some kind of master plan when they're really just a bunch of stand alone stories that are loosely connected by common characters.
>Wanting movies to explain their characters means you have autism
...
>Odin Force. They explained it in the film.
Literally never stated that term odin forcr, nice try, and they don't explain it at all. They hand wave it with how much dark energy did he need to get you here.
>Fire monster technology. Watch the film.
Never stated to do anything with getting the shrapnel removed. To state otherwise is either an assumption or headcanon on your part. Tony didn't give himself extremis to remove the shrapnel. He merely removed it from Pepper.
You're the only retard who needs to pay attention to the films
In the comics, his chair actually does a bunch of nonsense - it has guns and can travel through time and shit.
So yeah it looks silly as fuck but at least it's not just hover jet armrest for no reason (I hope).
He literally perfects Extremis, the whole point of the movie and reason they took Tony alive. Remember his drunken formula he wrote? Dipshit
