I guess that tracks because Thanos is stupid as fuck.

Trying to solve the resource problem by killing half of the universe just doesn't help. In a couple of decades, the population would be back to the previous number.

He could just snap his fingers and make those missing resources appear. Whole empty planets for people to live with abundance etc.

It feels like he thought of the problem for like one minute and decided to take the easiest short term solution possible.

Because that was hamfisted in. Originally, he wanted to kill half the universe to impress Lady Death.

Hm that sounds even dumber to be honest. I guess it's hard to write a plot that kills half the universe without it sounding idiotic

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Not that hard. Kill half the universe as a scientific experiment. Leave the other half alive as the control group.

At least this one didn't try to sound smart, all while trying to stay "apolitical".

This movie shit was virtuous vs what the giant walking hard-on was in the comics.

he was doing it to prevent the celestials from emerging from planets killing the population. im guessing he probably thought of that already that alreayd, adding more natural resources would accelerate the emergence. also seems the stones is not powerful enough to affect celestials, or primordial beings(death, GOD, angels,,,etc), otherwise he wouldve just used it to kill them. he is stupid in that having the 6 stones, why dint he conjure about things that can kill celestials.

I thought his threat was going to be that the universe either gets itself under control or he does it again?
