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

It's all a guess at this point.
 
I think Captain America will die but if you read the Russo Bros newest interview, he's almost surely to die in Avengers 4. They basically say the story they started with Winter Soldier will finalize with part 4. They wouldnt say that if Captain America was dying in Infinity War.
 
i hope the deaths make sense and not just lazy ala The Walking Dead
 
I think everyone dies, and then no one dies. Except for Thanos. And his minions.

Honestly, at this point, it'd be more of a surprise if Steve Rogers doesn't die. Same with Loki. They both tried it, a few times, and it didn't stick. So even if they tried to depict any death scene with as much finality as they possibly could for either of those two, a part of me would still be thinking, "Nice try guys, I know it's not gonna last..." and be forever waiting for them to show up again. ;)

What if it's Thor? He'd be the least likely Avenger to actually die. But he's got no home, if the trailers are accurate he has no people to rule any longer, he lost Jane a while ago... He might be in the frame of mind for an ultimate sacrifice play in the end. Battle of the Titans, er, sorta, him being a "god" and all...

Now I shall try to read the rest of this thread. Hope I didn't just repeat what others said.
(Ha. That rhymed.)

it did! Yeah, I am with you on a lot of this- Every time something gets released that screams "Loki dies" "Steve dies" "Tony dies" ... I up their chances of survival by 1%. There won't be any surprises if there aren't ... surprises, right?
 
I only got 8 pages into the thread. That's a lot of death to take in all in one go. But, now I'm thinking what if it's all the original founding Avengers? Cap, Tony, Thor & Hulk. They do it "as a team" in IW4 because Steve and Tony finally put aside their differences for the good of the world. I didn't include Natasha or Hawkeye simply because they sorta latched on as Avengers uninvited. ;) Tragically, Nat will probably help them do whatever it is they're planning, knowing they'll probably all die. Hawkeye will be too angry over the loss of his family to be weepy about what they're planning. He'll be Mr. Full of Vengence, "go kick his ass" about it. But then Bruce falls back to Earth and lives, cuz he's cursed like that and hates he was unable to die along with his friends, but never turns into the Hulk again. He's just simply run out of anger.

Back on Earth it'll turn out Pepper is pregnant (hey, it can happen), and Jane, feeling both grief and guilt for breaking up with Thor, finds his hammer near where Bruce landed...

(I'm so just making this all up....)

But that frees up everyone else to go on with Phase 4 and opens the door for Bucky or Falcon to be Captain America, (my vote is Sam while Bucky has his own adventures, maybe in space because he can't stand being on Earth without Steve...and occasionally has run-ins with Loki who's now a little messed up after Thor's died and Bucky is the only one that had even a smidgen of a connection with Thor via Steve, and that's good enough for Loki to obsess over.)

Of the space-faring characters, probably Drax and Nebula. Basically anyone blue. Maybe Rocket.

Yep. Although I've tried this tactic before and was sorely disappointed. "Oh it's a red herring, they're just messing with us..." and then it actually happened. Ha. But Loki never dies. He's too ornery to die. But Thanos will sure make it look like he did to Thor to mess with him, but I think he'd want Loki alive just so he could make him pay for double crossing him. So, Loki "dies" but doesn't actually die. Which we don't find out until IW4 or something.

What did 'blue' ever do to the Russos? lol... I swear, if all the Avengers die and Jane and Darcy are left standing there in their place...

Makes sense and it would work nicely on a lot of levels. It could even work form the comic history where Loki turns up again, but he doesn't look the same.
 
The speculation has been interesting but I'm really not looking forward to any of the mainstays dying. This fixation on our favorite heroes getting killed so we can all get together and have a good cry just seems morbid and perverse to me. As far as I remember, people mostly hated the last time a hero was killed off (in a heroic sacrifice, no less), so it's pretty odd to see so many fans practically licking their chops at the idea this time around. I can already see one of two potential reactions getting traction - either their favorite hero's death wasn't heroic/tragic/epic enough, or that said character's death was "wasted", which we've heard before. I suppose the flipside is possible as well, in that a character's death could be handled poorly (hi Talia & Uncle Ben), yet fans defend it anyway because of how sad they are to see the character go.

Personally, I think at least part of it stems from MCU fans' general insecurities and/or frustrations about stakes in these films, but I could be wrong. In any case, I'd like to see at least some of the old guard get happy endings. There's more ways to end a character's story than killing them off. Whatever form it takes and whoever it befalls, my only real hope is that it's done well and is a genuine, fitting decision that serves the story. Won't work if it's some contrivance designed to placate anxious fans.
 
People really seem to be grasping to that White Wolf thing.

Seriously doubt it's anything more than an easter egg. We might hear it again as a one-liner in one of these Infinity War movies, but doubt it's anything significant.

Actually, it's far more than that. Sebastian Stan made multiple comments about this arc and how he never thought about it but makes sense. WHite Wolf is not an Easter egg or just a reference but his new arc.

The original scene was apparently 8 to 10 long with a lot of dialogue between Bucky and Shuri, Bucky meeting elders and children of that tribe. He said it at Portland Wizard World Comic-Con.

Bucky is 100% going to become Captain America. They've teased it in every single movie he's been in. That's his story arc.

Steve will die and Bucky will pick up the shield.

There is no such a thing as 100% be Captain America.h
Things have changed by now with this White Wolf route. While He had this arc in the comics, but comics do not equal movies as we can see here. Bucyk's arc has been changed immensely from the start. Merge of Arnie Roth + Bucky Barnes, role in Civil War, Hydra, the killing of Ton's parents etc.

In the MCU it's far harder to sell it and with the lack of solo movie, very unlikely it'll be materialized. Where else he'll get proper character development with such a twist.

While Steve MIGHT die, far from certain, Bucky being Captain America is now less likely given circumstances.
 
Him losing the stone doesn't mean he's dead. He may be incapacitated or something, sure, but we don't quite know what the full extent of the Mind Stone has on Vision, and whether he can survive without it.

Also, if the latest teaser does indeed show Thanos with all the stones (except for the mind stone) he should just be able to freeze time already. :loco:

My Theory:
I think he asks Wanda to take the stone out of his head. He transfers his consciousness into it. Wanda gives it to Cap.

Cap has it. Thanos appears and goes for Cap... Vision exploits the proximity to the other stones to control them, then Wanda channels her power via the mind stone, neutralising the gauntlet.

Thanos will be absolutely shocked at this.

Then Thor, Hulk etc ambush Thanos at his weakest moment.

He ain't gonna get that mind stone without a huge fight. This is the moment where Thanos will not breeze through.

Hmmm....i actually think Cap will die in this film.

I feel like the fans 'licking their chops' is unfair, and since it seems to describe fans like me, I feel I should respond.

Chris Evans' Cap is my favorite character in the MCU, by far. The MCU won't be the same without him. But I have zero problem with him dying. There's a problem with the comics that the movies have an opportunity to fix: Endless 'deaths' without consequences, that are endlessly reversed. It's an insult to the characters, and to human life in general, to never introduce real, mortal stakes.

The entire character of Cap is based in self-sacrifice. To say that he should be exempt from paying the ultimate price is not only a disservice to the character-- it's a renunciation of the veterans that he symbolizes.

I know that if the story and its themes call for Cap's death, Marvel will give it real weight, meaning, and closure. And that's more than a lot of good people get. Maybe most.

And I'm sure that there will be peaceful, non-death endings for some of the 'old guard'.

If it comes when A4 ends, that we've only had a few minor deaths, what will folks say?

I agree. When Marvel has a once-in-a-generation event like 'Infinity War' and 'A4' there have to be gasping-for-breath, mortal, GIGANTIC consequences for MAJOR characters. Otherwise there's no way to take the franchise seriously after that. It's bad storytelling and bad business.
 
I don't need anyone to die to realize what's at stake. But it's probably going to happen and I'm just trying to mentally prepare myself for what could come, because I love all those idiots.
 
Post your predictions on who the casualties for the Infinity war will be


1. i think Cap will die...and Loki will "die".:cap:

2. all of them will die but Dr. Strange will find a way to fix it
 
'phew'. depending on one's definition of 'minor' ... death isn't necessary, 'stakes' do not require death.

You have a point. Rhodey's injury was a major rise in the stakes. It wasn't a tussle anymore. Iron Man was gunning for blood.

There will have to be some deaths. Whether they are a shock surprise or a sacrifice is unclear, but "there will be blood".

You have to present THANOS as the gravest threat and you can't fully believe that if everyone is Hanky dory when it's all said and done.
 
Hmmm....i actually think Cap will die in this film.

But Evans is under contract for Avengers 3 & 4. Are you saying he will be only in there in like BARF or flashback form? That feels like a waste. I would say the same for any of the big 4
 
Gamora, Cap, War Machine, Okeye, Thor and temporarily Vision. Quote me.
 
Yes...that's what I'm speculating.

I don't see why you would pay Evans like 12 million dollars to be in Avengers 4 in that form? Seems like a waste of the character as well as money. I really don't see any of the big 4 dying in IW. I will be shocked if any of them do.

Avengers 4 is another story.
