Infinity War and Endgame Had to Make Some Changes
Today was the second year anniversary since the original theatrical release of ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ and yesterday was the one year anniversary for ‘Avengers: Endgame.’ Those movies were the end of a saga that spanned over 10 years and gave us a solid end to a generation of films. There are countless moments throughout both films that have paid off due to years of hard work. However, there are a few things that had to be left out unfortunately. So now, we will go over a list of a few changes that had to be made to the films.
One of the first changes to mention was the deletion of the a longer reunion scene between the Hulk and Black Widow in ‘Infinity War.’ As we know, they had a relationship in ‘Age of Ultron,’ but we didn’t really get a longer scene involving them due to time constraints. A big change going into ‘Endgame’ was the addition of Smart Hulk, which seemed sudden and out of nowhere. How he ended up in the film was meant to be explained but, according to the writer it didn’t fit with the plot of the film. Something else that was cut was Iron Man had dying words, but this was decided not to happen in the final cut.
There are also countless other scenes like Rocket talking to Jane Foster in the past for the reality stone and Dr. Strange knocking Thanos out of his body during their fight. Sometimes movies just can’t include everything that was meant to be in them. These two films were no exception to this fact, especially because of their lengths exceeding two and a half hours. On top of that, there was reportedly somewhere around 900+ hours of footage to comb through. So, I guess we can be happy with the footage we got to see play out in the two films.
