Dread it. Run from it. Destiny arrives all the same. Merely minutes after fleeing from an exploding homeworld, the Mighty Thor (Chris Hemsworth) rests crumpled on the fiery floor of the Asgardian refugee vessel Statesman. The last time we saw him in the mid-credits stinger of Thor: Ragnarok, Odinson and his mischievous brother Loki (Tom Hiddleston) were debating the logic of returning to an Earth barely recovered from the Battle of New York. It turns out that their mythological bravado was all for naught. Loki’s former puppet master, The Mad Titan Thanos (Josh Brolin) is done sitting on the sidelines and has already begun his collection of the Marvel MacGuffins offscreen when his cronies decimated Xandar in the retrieval of The Power Stone.
With one elemental crystal locked firmly into a knuckle of his Infinity Gauntlet, Thanos and his Black Order raiding party have ripped the Stateman to shreds. We see no sign of Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi), Meik, or the rescued stragglers of Asgard. The presumption is that many escaped during the initial melee, and eagle-eyed viewers place their hope in spotting The Grandmaster’s pleasure craft drifting away during a few brief exterior shots. Such wishful desire is fleeting to the viewer as Thanos drags the limp body of Thor towards his brother.
The last ten years of the MCU have revealed Loki to be a likable yet untrustworthy cohort. However, whether he’s played the outright villain or reluctant ally, the motivation of the petulant child stems from painful daddy issues and sibling jealousy. With Odin in Valhalla and Thor facing obliteration under the Gauntlet, Loki must admit his bond to the Asgardians who stole him from Jotunheim. If they were to perish first, Loki would have nothing to cling to in this realm or any other. His confident proclamation of “We have a Hulk” brings his character arc full circle, effectively sealing his fate while we’re cheering the symmetry of the moment. The pummeled becomes the pummeler. Taika Waititi would find a LOL in this action, but Joe Russo and Anthony Russo only deal in highs before plunging us into catastrophic lows.
Loki’s conviction, as well as our own, deflates when Thanos flogs the strongest Avenger and Ebony Maw (Tom Vaughan-Lawlor) restrains Thor with scraps of the crumbling Statesman. Heimdall (Idris Elba) calls upon the Allfathers to use his dark magic to transport an unconscious Hulk to Earth, and a speedy impaling is his reward. Loki offers his services as an experienced guide, but it’s only a ruse to get within stabbing distance of the Titan. Using the Space Stone, Thanos freezes the trickster mid-thrust and only has a smile as a response to Loki’s dismissive “You’ll never be a god” slander. A light squeeze snaps Loki’s neck, and the baby frost giant turns blue.
Thanos The Mad Titan
Avengers: Infinity War opens with a horrible beat. Thor crawls upon his brother’s corpse, the ship erupts, and Thanos continues on his merry way to gather the rest of the Infinity Stones. The Hulk smashes through the ceiling of Doctor Strange’s sanctum never to make an appearance in the movie again, leaving puny Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) to utter a word of warning. Thanos is coming, break out the dustbuster.
That’s how superhero movies work, right? A threat unlike any other is introduced, the heroes gather their forces, find their courage, and conquer by the climax. Avengers: Endgame may very well resolve in such a fashion, but the Russo Brothers wanted their heroes and their audience to stew in defeat. Infinity War sets up the usual blockbuster stepping stones, spends the majority of its runtime establishing how the Avengers will prevail, but when the killing blow is finally delivered it’s a few inches south of the target. The last words uttered by Captain America (Chris Evans), “Oh god” are a slap to the lifeless face of Loki. A god is seen in the final shot of the film, and he grins.
The first words Thanos utters in Infinity War indicate a grotesque inevitability we never experience during summer movie season. “I know what it’s like to lose,” he explains. “To feel so desperately that you’re right, yet to fail nonetheless.” He’s spent a lifetime trying to prevent other planets from experiencing the environmental cataclysm that occurred on Titan, and he refuses to release the cold arithmetic that arrived in his mind during that crisis. We need to be less. If we reduce our numbers, we increase our chances of survival. Defeat is essential to victory.
He’s got a point. We love our heroes when we see them rise from the darkest depths. To satisfy ten+ years of marvelous triumphs, and provide a villain that could test the limits of The Avengers, the Russos could not just kill a few B-list and C-list characters. Infinity War opens on the unceremonious murder of their most charismatic rogue and ends on the eradication of Spider-Man and Black Panther?!?! Yo. Sure. Peter Parker and T’Challa are box office gold and the second they faded into oblivion we knew that the next film would bring them back in some manner. You either roll your eyes at that capitalistic inevitability, or you ball like a baby. Those that are in the spirit of the narrative suffer alongside the few protagonists left living. As Thanos warned at the start, such loss turns our legs to jelly, and our exit out of the theater was more stumble than popcorn movie stride.
Thor Infinity War
Failure is a vital ingredient to the appeal of the Marvel Universe. We began our journey with Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) pulling himself from the grips of death, weaponizing his mind into a suit of armor, and redirecting his talents towards altruism as a monument to Yinson’s sacrifice in the cave. The Iron Man franchise is a constant series of personal adjustments where Stark must reconcile with past mistakes both recent and old, leading to the ideological fissure of Captain America: Civil War. His very human missteps ground him to a reality we all experience so that the fantastical blue beams of light lasering through the city actually mean something.
The others are no different. Steve Rogers was a selfless welp who devoted himself to a life of service only to wake up decades later and discover he would betray his ethics for the one friend who was always there for him at the end of the line. Peter Parker (Tom Holland) spent the remaining days of his life making up for an unforgivable sin that caused his Uncle’s death. Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) dare not speak of the red on her ledger; she hopes that her time on The Avengers can equal some compensation. Although, that didn’t stop her from betraying Banner’s trust by physically forcing the Hulk to emerge in Age of Ultron.
