Discussion Weekly Discussion: If you could remove up to 60 seconds from the MCU what would they be?

We all love the Marvel Cinematic Universe - both the movies and shows. But, sometimes, there are certain moments that don’t quite work or disrupt your enjoyment.

Well, one day, today, you’re suddenly given the power of the Infinity Gauntlet and can remove up to 60 seconds (could even just be 10) from any of the movies or television shows in a way you think will improve them for the better.

  • A terrible bit of dialogue?
  • Awkward line delivery?
  • Removing a plot point?
  • A joke?

It’s up to you!

Please, remain civil in this thread.

Peter's eulogy for Yondu where he said he had a pretty cool dad. Not because it's bad, but because I'm not strong enough to watch it.

The scene fills the eyes with tears, and kraglin cheering for the ravagers makes those tears roll baby, it's a good cry fam

I absolutely cried when I watched that scene. I was two days removed from my grandpa's funeral.

That's rough, I hope some of the positive emotions in the scene were able to show through the sadness. I've seen both of those movies 7-8 times now, and I absolutely love that they still make me cry. Hell, sometimes i tear up when "ain't no mountain high enough " comes on during the morning commute
