I Am SO Upset Over 'Infinity War,' But That Doesn't Mean I Don't Highly Recommend It

The biggest movie cross-over in a decade ended so differently than expected

WARNING: "INFINITY WAR" SPOILERS AHEAD!

I will not try to pass as someone who has researched all of the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies and found all mentions of the infinity stones or a connection to the Universal war that was upcoming.

I had wanted to see the movie since I heard word about it coming out. I hadn't even seen "Avengers: Age of Ultron" yet, but was still so excited to see more of my favorite superheroes all together, such as more screen time for Doctor Strange and my all time favorite, Tom Holland as Spider-Man.

Austin and I needed a date night so I suggested we go out to dinner and finally watch "Infinity War." I dressed up and we set out to see the climax of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I was so excited. I somehow managed to not read or hear any spoilers from the movie.

Austin and I were almost the only people in the theater because it had been a week after it had premiered. That was perfect so we could ask each other questions and mention facts from the Marvel movies the other hadn't seen.

I am incredibly upset over the ending of "Infinity War." Austin will tell you I cried and was angry and whined for about an hour after it ended. I was mostly petty because they killed off my baby, Spider-Man. I was so upset that it didn't end like all the other "Avengers" movie where the resolution was at the end tied up like a bow. I would always just sigh in relief when they ended and the 'villain' or situation was subdued and everyone was saved.

When Scarlett Witch managed to destroy the Mind Stone I breathed a sigh of relief. When Thor struck Thanos with the Axe, I was so happy. I was like this is the ending I was waiting for. Suspense, last minute save like always, perfect.

But, NO! When Thanos looked at Thor and said "You should have aimed for the head" and snapped his fingers, I gasped. I was so upset. I was sobbing as I watched all of my favorite characters vanish in the unbiased genocide. The improv death scene of Spider-Man made me clutch my chest. I almost had a panic attack.

This was not how it was supposed to end!

I guess it was a smart director move to not end this climax as every other Avenger movie and also it is how it ended in the original comic books. But it was not what I was expecting. I was expecting all of the heroes to band together, all of them together on earth, to defeat Thanos. They did band together, but all over the universe, and not communicating about how to defeat him.

Although I whined and sobbed after the ending and was so angry for a good two days after watching it, I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of the Marvel Universe. The movie itself is amazing with all the different worlds colliding into one huge cross-over. Go see "Infinity War" if you haven't, although I hope if you're reading this you already have and agree with me.

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.

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.
