Was hoping he could be a recurring villain or a potential ally for the future Avengers because he's not an outright homicidal or pyschotic villain in a sense. And Brolin obviously delivers a great performance. And there are other Thanos storylines I think would have been cool to explore.

I mean they keep bring Loki back so why not bring back Thanos.

And Brolin obviously delivers a great performance. And there are other Thanos storylines I think would have been cool to explore. I thought he was an utter moron, at least in regard to his plan which made everyone involved at Marvel look like pig-ignorant putzs. There's on the order of 100 billion stars estimated in our galaxy alone, which is but one of somewhere from 10 billion to maybe 10 trillion galaxies, the average of which might be larger than our own as we suspect Andromeda might have on the order of one trillion stars. In addition some suspect our universe might be one of many and even just a 'bubble' on/in another one.
At one point they have Banner say Thanos killed 'trillions' of people--that's it? All those star systems in all those galaxies and there's only trillions of people a 50% death snap could kill? How could anyone possibly think we're running out of room and stuff? We also know some Marvel civilizations don't even need stars, they can mine dead space gods and such, does anyone have any idea how much area there is in one miserable cubic light year? Like 2 × 1038 cubic miles, and there's like eight trillion cubic light years in our galaxy alone.
Even if so, and Banner mispoke, how would killing only half do much long term good at all, the populations could easily double in the space of a handful of generations for many species, especially if resources aren't nearly as scarce. So yes, Thanos was a homicidal psychotic villain who was admittedly well portrayed but I never want to see again unless he's worshiping death or something and they retcon this embarrassing absurdity so that's what he was doing all along and used mind control powers to make everyone think differently and buy into this idiocy.
That would make more sense and that is most definitely damning with faint praise.

Now that time travel is in play, there's no reason to think we've seen the last of anyone.

May the end he basically admits that because of everything that’s happened it’s become personal for him to kill the Avengers. |

C'mon man, it's been out for a week now. That isn't that long. It hasn't even had it's second weekend yet. We'll go by the Russo's themselves. uk.ign.com/articles/2019/05/02/avengers-endgame-directors-say-this-is-when-you-can-spoil-the-movie"Posted by the Russo Brothers Twitter account, the “official” spoiler ban will be removed on Monday, May 6. The account posted this morning, "If you haven’t seen Endgame yet, see it this weekend. The spoiler ban lifts on Monday!” So by the 6th you can all post freely.

And Brolin obviously delivers a great performance. And there are other Thanos storylines I think would have been cool to explore. I actually would have liked that too.
In the comics once he gets the power he realizes it doesn't really fulfill him after all, and he actually starts to make dumb plays, kinda on purpose, so that he'll lose the power. In fact Nebula and Adam Warlock both are able to take it from him in Infinity Gauntlet.
Of course in the comics they explore his relationship with Death which is glossed over in the movie. His continued rejection by Death in part leads to his lack of desire for the Gauntlet.
But I think the emotional effect of how they handled all the deaths at the end of Infinity War was such that he had to die. Anything less would be seen as a cop out.
However... time travel. You just never know...

I'm great with his death. He earned. Twice.
I thought it was a strong and even poetic end to a very capable and threatening villain. If he survived, they might as well call the movie MiddleGame.

You know they are going to bring Thanos back. If Loki and The Red Skull can come back so can he. Plus i hold they really do Thanos like his Comic Book self more.

Maybe they could have done him like TWD did Negan. Prisoned and still alive.
Then again, how could they have done that, and what good would have come from it?
