Infinity War Who will die in Infinity war Part 1 and 2

Stop with the condescension, guys. Be civil. Only warning.

Thank you
 
I'm def all for SW dying off. If there's a film, def focus it on being a prequel.

But it's just the image of the only major female character being killed off, some folks might complain heavily. Though Captain Marvel should easily silence everyone.

I don't wanna see Falcon die, but I'm sure it would be a total gut punch.

I def see Bucky and The Hulk dying for sure. Maybe also the Hulk by end of A4.

War Machine too, but since he was just paralyzed, no chance him dying in this 1.

I don't think Scarlet Witch is getting a prequel anytime soon.

Female characters aren't interchangeable like that.
 
My bad. I meant Black Widow.

Well that's my point. No one will be happy to see 1 female character die only to be replaced by another (aka the Walking Dead revolving black male character syndrome).

But I do think should she die, fans can clammor around another female character. Someone completely different.

yup, no way she gets a prequel. way more likely to join the dr strange sequel or even a film with vision

I don't want someone completely different, who only is a check the box it's a woman... if it were just about the nethers of a character, I'd like SW (and I don't really care about her. Or her romance. it might make IW tough for me to bite into if that's central, because meh.)

So, yeah, I think they'd be making a whopper mistake killing off BW, since it would be just like the revolving character syndrome if they think it will make one of the other females more popular.
 
Part 1-Loki,Falcon die.
Part 2-Vision dies,Iron man dies.
 
I'm almost certain Loki, Vision and Cap are dying

Maybe Gamora too
 
Literally ever online site, magazine and youtube channel puts vision as the no1/2 candidate for death. Iron Man, cap, nebula, Loki also appear highly on a lot of lists.

Well, those aren't exactly unsound choices, both plot-wise and contract-wise:

Vision - Plot-wise he's in immediate danger because Thanos needs what gave Vision life in the first to win.

Loki
- Some would argue Ragnarok already completed his main arc of true redemption in the MCU and while you can tell more stories with him, who knows how much more time Hiddleston will want to keep playing a big role. Plot-wise, he's probably on Thanos' naughty list after the fiasco with the Tesseract and would give Thor a personal motive to fight the titan (I recall hearing the Russo's say he had an improtant role in this movie).

Iron Man & Captain America - They're arguably the two most important pillars of the (current) MCU so plot-wise killing off one of these two characters would be the biggest shock for the audience (much more than killing, say, Falcon, Rhodes or even Vision) and cement the stakes. RDJ and Chris Evans have also gone on record that they'll probably be leaving after A4 (I think, if they truly die, it'll be in that movie then).

Nebula & Gamora - Plot-wsie, they're the two characters with the biggest connection to Thanos. Their death at his hands would feel personal and, if paired with competent characterization, give depth to the villain. Nebula's arc seems compeltely centered around Thanos (which probably means her story would be difficult to continue without him) and Gamora's called her favorite daughter.

We also have to keep in mind that any "newbie" death, especially of a character with franchise potential, will feel fake. So people like Panther, Strange, Spider-Man or even Thor (who's just found his groove) are probably safe. And secondary character deaths probably won't have the same impact, even if they're fan favorites, because this is supposed to be the "culmination" of the MCU and the climax of a story shouldn't be the death of a secondary unless that secondary is at least as important to the story as the main character (something I don't think has really happened in the MCU).

Totally agree with this. People who think they're gonna kill off Pepper or Wong or whoever are, I think, trying to avoid the fact that one of their favorite Avengers is probably gonna kick the bucket soon.

Killing a sidekick character is transparently cheap and and also, to do it effectively, it would have to take valuable screentime away from the huge roster of active heroes and the massive amount of plot to cover. Not happening.

Yup. I really don't know why anyone thinks if there's a big death in a storyline they've specifically said will close the book on the first three phases of the MCU and have confirmed will end the stories of certain characters, it will just have secondary characters, love interests or normal human best friends.

We went through this in the lead-up to Civil War when people kept insisting the big death would be War Machine. LOL.
 
I don’t think Valkyrie will die because she’s just been introduced and would be perfect in future MCU. I think times up for Heimdall though. :(
 
You know, it's odd... a month ago, I gave a 100% chance of Loki-Death... but today, I only give 98%, just because it is being so telegraphed. It's to the point where they are almost hopping up and down yelling 'he's dead! deeeeead!"

2% chance of a shocker.

Yeah, and I hope you're right. She could be real fun in the future.

Wrong!! Truthfully I could care less if the Hulk departs!! It would be weird considering the fact that Marvel just established the fact that he can’t die, and he’s always survived these catastrophic events, but it wouldn’t bother me one bit.. I’ve seen him die before in Death of the Incredible Hulk ( which included a black widow type character) I would simply not be in attendance for the next film, not like it needs us Hulk fans anyway.

What I’m saying is if you go around killing the starks and caps of the world, you’re going to lose a lot of your fanbase. People who are saying that they will be fine are entitled to their opinion, but having been around a long time and seeing what happened to franchises once a character or an actor departs, it’s really not good. I’m pretty sure DC fans wouldn’t care, as they have been through this before, but Marvel fans will witness the inevitable decline that’s sure to happen.

Again, if you follow the empire strikes back formula, no real major character has to die, again not trying to defend hulk as we can all see , he’s not a major character;you can get that effect by reshaping them by removing those close to them. Again, that’s my opinion and I could be wrong, but if you look at it from a historical perspective in movies, then this is what will happen.

I’m really interested to see how the next Star Wars movie does ( episode 9) I wonder if people are that invested in the character Rey that she can really carry that ship. That will be a good litmus test for the captain marvels of the world, who I still say has zero chance of replacing cap.

That's the point. You want the death in your movie to actually matter. You don't kill someone just because you think they're unpopular and nobody would care if they're gone.

Nah, you’re missing the point.. Go back and read my post. He said my opinion is based on the fact that I’m trying to avoid the fact that my favorite avenger would soon die, and I’m not. I could care less if my favorite avenger is gone. I think I’ve exhausted my opinion on how he has been treated in these movies. I don’t have to go back there, nor make my prediction based on that. I’m not trying to avoid the fact that he may no longer be there. Again I could care less. I’m not coming at this from a fan who has just jumped on board with these types of movies. I’ve witnessed them from the early 80s until now.. You guys are not understanding the financial , commercial ramifications of what you’re asking for. Sure it would be a great story, but moving forward where would it leave the franchise or universe.. Go ahead and take another look at what I’m saying.. There is a small sample who agrees with me here and if history is correct, the gq public will let Marvel know the hard way... By affecting their bottom line.

I hope Scarlet Witch is safe/doesn’t die. I also don’t think Vision will die. I feel like Shuri will find a way to keep him from dying without that stone in his forehead.

My bet is on the big three: Captain America, Thor and Iron Man. One will die, one will retire and one will go either way.

No, I know your point, I just don't agree with it. When we've had a solid slew of hits featuring the newer characters, I don't think continuing the franchise without some of the original Avengers is any sort of impossible feat. Most of the examples used generally don't work in this era because we've never had an interconnected universe of films like this before, where the lead characters can each carry their own film series.

Yeah, the only secondary characters that are DEFINITELY dying are:

Loki (yeah, I know he's more of a major character, get off my back)
Heimdall (He isn't really necessary to Thor franchise, and it's a waste of Elba's talent anyway)
Nova Prime Gotta show major destruction on Xandar somehow, and Nova Prime's death is a good place to start. Why keep paying Glenn Close for such a minor role?

Agree to disagree. We will just have to wait and see how it plays out. Killing stars is killing stars , has nothing to do with interconnected universe. Ask transformers how long it took them Them to recover once they killed prime in the 80s etc.etc.etc.
