Based on reading spoilers, I think the crowd reactions for this thing could vary. Curious to what people responded to the most.

Laughs - Squidward joke, Banner cant get it up joke
Gasps - Drax and Mantis fake death, Gamora death, Red Skull Cameo, Thanos snap
Cheers - Cap's arrival to save Wanda and Vision, Wanda's arrival on the Wakanda battlescene, Thor's arrival on the Wakanda battlescene

People cheered when
cap first appeared and basically every thor scene in god mode
 
The most silence I ever experienced after the film, people were stunned.
 
Pretty quiet here, surprisingly, but there were a lot of older people rather than the younger crowd at my screening (which was a little odd in itself).

Nowhere near as vocal as with Ragnarok, but guess they're different types of movies. Ragnarok's all fist-pumping "**** yeah!" fun, whereas this was pretty dour & somber for the majority.
 
the 1st biggest reaction was

Cap coming out of the shadows...insane pop for this.

The other one was when Thor, Groot and Raccoon beamed themselves to wakanda

Wanda is getting cheers! Yes!!

Same here, plus laughing at the jokes and silence at certain other parts. Have had 2 good crowds so far.
 
Crowd reaction threads are always so interesting to me... I don't know if it's the part of England I live in, but if anyone claps or makes a noise during a movie, it's seen as a massive faux pas. Like, you better not be making a sound when that Marvel intro pops up. Clapping at the end of the movie is especially weird. I think laughter is the only noise considered acceptable over here and even then, it better not be annoying and over the top lol.

This is why the English are considered uptight...

In France, it's the same. Cheering or clapping during the film would be considered very weird.

Definitely true. The cinema where I live now is better for that but the best of all for crowd reactions was Leicester Square midnight on opening night for big fan properties. Then everyone including me would be screaming just at the opening title. I used to go with my sister when we were in our 20s.
 
I might clap at the end today... see what happens. I assume I'll be escorted out lol.

There was a timid clap at the end of my screening, but it was more of a mom clapping towards her little boy to show support/appreciation (the little girl next to them had fallen asleep during the film !).

I kinda envy the crowd reactions people are reporting from the american theaters, yet, I suspect it would bug me and take me out of the film.

Haha. They'll have you listed as an official troublemaker after that! I think underneath a lot of people want to at least clap when a film turns out to be amazing, but they don't want to be the one to start it in case it peters out quickly.
 
Swedish crowds don't tend to be very vocal, apart from laughter, of which there was plenty, so there wasn't much in the ways of cheering etc at my screening. There was however a special tension in the air when the film ended and it seemed to have affected people.

Yeah I think going to the cinema is a more interactive experience in the US. I suppose when you grow up with it being like that, it's just the norm. I side eye people if they so much as crunch their popcorn too loudly lol.

I'll just clap to myself when I watch it alone on DVD.

EDIT: That sounds so wrong...

My mother went on a trip to Canada and she said that going inside a cinema theater, the smell of the snacks was very strong.

I suppose that in Europe, the experience of going to the movies is a little less about pure entertainment than in the US, maybe it's because cinema is more perceived as an art form with its authors, etc.
 
I don't mind crowd reactions if it's obviously meant to be a fist pumping moment. Like Fast and Furious movies are all about crowd reactions now. But I admit does make it difficult
to hear any dialogue immediately after.
 
It was really different in an IMAX cinema that I attended in Jakarta, Indonesia. It felt like a music concert and that was the first time I experienced such thing.

Before the movie played, some audiences (more than a dozen), did the Yibambe chant from the Avengers's tv spot. It happened for a couple of minutes before they ended it by screaming Wakanda Forever. They got a lot of appreciation from the other audiences because it really boost our mood before watching the movie.

Then, during the movie, lots of the audiences laughed, clap, and cheered in every special scenes. The energy dropped a lot at the ending, but regained during the post credit scene.

I don't know. It's definitely seen as pure entertainment here. It's just... you have to be quiet whilst being entertained lol. There's even an advert before the movie starts telling people to be quiet.

Absolutely. Which was a pleasant surprise during my showing yesterday.
Last time I remember people reacting so loudly to a movie was I think Avatar and it doesn't compare in intensity to what I experienced yesterday.
I said it elsewhere but people went absolutely ballistic every step of the way.
And that's a nice change of pace because frankly it sometimes sucks when you're the only one being vocal in a crowded theater.

If people cheer during my showing in a few hours... I don't care that I have The Worst Cold Ever... I will do my best,"YOU WERE NOT RAISED IN A BARN!" speech that my mother gave to a bunch of rowdy kids when we saw The Phantom Menace when I was little.
