Even ignoring the whataboutism, this isn’t even true. Gamora and Nebula existing already built up Thanos indirectly. In Avengers 1, he didn’t just sit in a chair, he was the one who sent Loki. You don’t gotta diminish your own previous work to justify being washed now😭
Some might call all of this extra work pretentious but I think it's fun that Nolan challenges his creative teams. How cool they got the chance to learn from history and play replicas of ancient instruments. I appreciate this level of artistry and they look so proud of themselves.
I hate how I’m not even in my 30’s yet and it feels like the world is falling apart around us with potential life paths for myself and my friends being snuffed out and our hobbies slowly degrading all in the name of “progress” and more money for old men
