The most anticipated movie of our generation left with unfinished business.

7 Lingering Thoughts I Had At The End Of "Avengers: Infinity War"
Gage Skidmore

After avoiding spoilers like the plague and constantly worrying about which characters were going to die, I went to the movies and finally saw "Avengers: Infinity War." I’ve been not-so-patiently waiting for the movie to come out, and now that it is finally here, I am devastated. Don’t get me wrong, it was an amazing movie, but the ending where a majority of the cast dies almost killed me as well.

Disclaimer: Spoilers Ahead.

1. Why didn't Ant-Man make an appearance throughout the entire movie?

He was mentioned only once during the course of the entire movie. It’s led to believe he is choosing not to fight crime to focus on being a family man, but in reality, Ant-Man is being used for the new wave of Marvel superheroes that are to come like Captain Marvel. He does have a movie coming up with the Wasp, so we know he has some story to be told.

2. Why did Loki’s death happen after like thirty seconds?

Loki is one of the original "bad guys" from the Marvel movies, and he was killed in the first few minutes of the movie by Thanos trying to stab him. Loki's moral compass has always been off, but he is more of an antihero than a superhero. He's been known to help the Avengers, specifically Thor, but also betray everyone for his own selfish needs.

3. Is Wakanda is doomed for good?

The Avengers, with the help of the army of Wakanda, had the biggest fight against Thanos’ army in Wakanda. The force field that surrounds was destroyed and they just lost their leader T’Challa. The future of Wakanda is unknown, but they will definitely need some help.

4. Iron Man and Nebula are stranded, so what now?

After the fight is fought and half of the population is killed, Iron Man and Nebula are left on another planet. They are the only two who survived the killings of Thanos and haven't even been introduced to each other. Iron Man needs to get back to Earth not only to get back home, but to also explain to everyone's loved ones what happened to all the Avengers. Nebula now has no sister and no one that she loves, so she is left bitterly alone in the world.

5. What is Thanos going to do now?

At the beginning of the movie, Thanos seems to be this detached monster who is motivated by his own idea that he thinks he is right, but after he had to sacrifice Gamora for the soul stone, we see that he does have emotions. Now that he has successfully killed half the population, he can sit back and watch the sunrise like he always wanted. Is he just going to do nothing now? He doesn't have any more family, and I guess he still has an army, but he's just alone now.

6. So...Rocket has no more purpose in life?

As the last Guardian of the Galaxy left, Rocket doesn’t know anyone. Plus, his best friend Groot, who he would travel the galaxy with stealing and taking what he likes, is now gone, so he has no motivation to do anything.

7. Star-Lord couldn't have just held in his emotions for five more seconds?

The most frustrating moment of the whole film was watching Spiderman take the gauntlet off Thanos' hand just to have Star-Lord punch him in the face for killing Gamora, which wakes him up from Mantis’ forced slumber. If Star-Lord would have waited five more seconds, he could have saved half the population from dying and gotten the revenge he wanted to.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
