Why did Loki had to come face to face combat with Thanos in Infinity War?

If you watched Thor Ragnarok, remember when he went into the vault and grabbed the Tesseract? It contained one of the infinity stones, and he kept it with him on the ship. Thanos seemed to be naturally drawn to the stones so he sought out Loki. (Or he had a way of finding them I’m not sure.) black canary costumes

He must of known who had it, (Thanos sent him to earth in The Avengers too so he knew Loki at least had it then.) and he used Thor to get to Loki, and unsurprisingly it worked. Their history went back a lot further than Infinity War however. They probably met at around the end of the first Thor movie. thea queen cosplay

So Loki ended up trying to kill Thanos directly to save Thor and the rest of the Asgardians. source:www.cosjj.com

How can the MCU possibly continue beyond Avengers: Infinity War and the all powerful Thanos

Thanos is going to be tormented by the image of Gamora in his mind, constantly, and he’s not going to be satisfied with killing half the universe. He’ll drive himself crazy trying to rationalize all the good that can be done now, make a stupid mistake where he puts the Infinity Gauntlet down, Nebula’s going to put it on, and then she’s going to undo everything he did in the last movie — except now Nebula has the Gauntlet, which is not better. The heroes are then going to need to contend with a more volatile but (fortunately) more shortsighted opponent in the grand rematch for the Infinity Gauntlet. Somewhere in all this Tony Stark’s participation is going to be of vital importance (he’s probably going to help Nebula, then immediately regret it), and somehow Carol Danvers will be involved. red arrow costumes

The MCU has a great future ahead of this movie here is why….. www.cosjj.com

1. The New Fox/Sony/Disney Deal

With the new deal going to be put in full effect sometime in 2019 we can expect to see the avengers, x-men and the fantastic four to be in a massive crossover event or even come together for an event like infinity war! It would take some time to establish the X-men in the MCU but it could be done in an awesome way! My expectation is that they will continue to do X-men movies seperate from the avengers and it’s character up until 2024 when Avengers 5 comes out which will most likely be the big crossover event either with only the avengers and x-men or maybe both teams going against a greater threat! green arrow and black canary costumes

2. Galactus

Galactus could be the potential next villain which would be a great introduction into brining all the marvel heroes together! Galactus is even more of a threat than Thanos and would require more than just the avengers and the guardians! By having Galactus they can give reason to adding so many characters to the movie! young justice cheshire costume

Why is Thor so late to attack Thanos at the end of Infinity War?

Not sure if below answers are entirely appropriate for your question but what I think is, if you observe carefully, the part where Thanos enters wakanda, takes on all the heroes one by one, wanda destroying vision’s stone and then Thanos reversing time to take away the mind stone was shown in super slow motion (for cool effect). If it was speed up to regular motion, you can see it happened fairly quickly within a matter of few minutes. black canary costumes

During this time, Thor was fighting huge chunk of outriders and destroying their ships all by himself which will have had him pre occupied for few min and soon as he saw Thanos, he came rushing to him throwing his axe at him www.cosjj.com.

Above should be a very plausible explanation for why he was late in attaking thanos. Even if not, it is after all a movie so he could have been late so his attack would be gripping and super dramatic. Cheers!

because nobody informed him that Thanos had arrived (he was not a part of Captain America's team, as such, not in posession of any communication device). So, just the fact that he arrived at the scene is worthy of him being Thor - The god of lightning. green arrow and black canary costumes

On a lighter vien, Avengers is a team not a Thor, and Thor is no superman, he is a god. So, we can't expect him to do all the heavylifting by himself and on time. And since it started as a team so it needs to end as a team, and not by a Thor. So, Thor had to take one for the team...and by extension, I guess the same can be said for The Hulk young justice cheshire costume.

Is it important to watch Hulk before watching Avengers: Infinity War?

No. Hulk (2003) isn’t even part of the MCU.

The Incredible Hulk (2008) can barely be considered a part of the MCU. Besides a Tony Stark cameo and a few SHIELD easter eggs, no other connections can be made with the rest of the MCU.

Bruce Banner and General Ross are the only characters who re-appear in later MCU films. Bruce Banner was recast, so it was pretty much a brand new version of him. Hulk’s backstory and powers are also explained pretty well in other films- Avengers, Age of Ultron and Ragnarok. black canary costumes

General Ross has only a brief appearance 8 years later in Civil War. He even appears in Infinity War in an insignificant role, but if you’ve seen Civil War, then you should have been able to recognize him. green arrow and black canary costumes

All the best Hulk moments were in the Avengers films and Ragnarok.

However, a 31 hour MCU marathon did include it, so if you have time, it wouldn’t hurt to watch it. “Avengers: Infinity War” makes its predecessors seem like small potatoes. The 19th film within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it combines nine franchises and more than 30 major characters. Audiences now have a decade’s worth of people and plot points to keep track of, beginning with 2008’s “Iron Man,” and retaining that much information would be a superhuman ability in itself. last guardian costumes

But don’t worry help is on the way. We’ve created a guide to all the important happenings leading up to the new film, complete with a list of characters involved in each one. So is this truly the “most ambitious crossover event in history,” as the facetious meme suggests? Judge for yourselves.

In Avengers: Infinity War, since Thanos snapped half of the universal population out of existence, what happens to the planets he had already decimated half on such as Gamora’s?

There are two options here.

Either those planets remained untouched, or half the remaining population was decimated.

Thanos had been applying his “salvation technique” at least since Gamora was a child, doing all the dirty work by hand. When he was done with the planets, only half the population remained, and if we are to believe Thanos, they then went on to live in prosperity because of it black canary costumes

With the Infinity Stones, Thanos is able to do this by thinking about eliminating half the universe and snapping his fingers.

And herein lies the question: did Thanos consider the planets he’d already “saved” or was everyone actually chosen at random as he so claimed?

I think that in the moment he snapped his fingers after Thor had plunged an axe into his chest, he was too busy thinking about completing his mission to worry about the planets he’d already hit. This means that approximately half the remaining population of planets like Gamora’s were disintegrated leaving only a quarter of the original population untouched thea queen cosplay.

This would make sense considering “halfing” is exponential decay. Think of it like the half-life of a radioactive object: the object doesn’t lose the remaining half of radioactivity after the second half-life; it just loses half of what it has left. I imagine population decay the Thanos way would apply the same way injustice 2 joker costumes.
