"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"

I hate to sound like an old man and agree.
They have sound techs, their job is to manage the sound.
We get it, splosions, car chases and shit need loud dramatic music.
But don't make that the baseline for your sound, on the quiet parts, turn the fucking dialogue up.

I ended up getting a soundbar just so I could hear the dialog better.

Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

I wondered whether you give you a like for that reply, then I decided it was super low hanging fruit, joke-wise.

I am to high-brow comedy what Trump is to international diplomacy. Still, on occasion it makes people giggle.

My take.
It's pretty great up until the last 5 minutes when

But great lines, good action, relatively light on the CGI overload and some solid dramatic moments, not to mention a lot of development for the villain. Best movie of the MCU? No, probably somewhere around the fifth. But definitely in the upper tier.

I don’t think it’s a spoiler to say there is only one end credit bit unlike the normal 2 but I guess it makes up for that as it’s probably double the length of any 2 in other movies. Now I will tag a thought about it. It’s a simple thought but more of a concern.

damn. It wasn't my favourite MCU movie, but it was definitely awesome. Some people claim that they always use the same predictable formula, which is not true imo, but this movie was so far from the usual superhero movie (or action movie in general) structure that even these people probably don't have anything to complain about.
