1. Vulture, Red Skull, Loki, Crossbones, Alexander Pierce, Bucky (At least in Winter Soldier when he's the "villain"), Zemo, all been great villains. The DCEU only have Zod going for them right now. Doomsday, pfft, not even a proper character, just Zod incarcerated if anything. Lex Luthor, even you agreed he sucked. Enchantress, likewise, you agreed she sucked. Steppenwolf, a poor man's version cardboard cutout of Thanos if anything with little to none characterization without the build up like the MCU has done. There's a fine line between bad and memorable. The MCU villains aren't all perfect, so they're not that memorable, but they're still damn good compared to Enchantress and Doomsday. And Thanos is just about better than any DCEU character.
2. Your complaint against Loki has been countered more than once. It's your opinion, sure, but doesn't make it a fact in anyway and certainly not implausible as there are many historical figures who had sibley rivalry or trying to win over a parent, and Hiddleson is a great performer who gave a powerhouse performance up against a Shakespearean actor like Hopkins in the first Thor film. The DCEU is yet to really capture a good performance like that other than Shannon's Zod.
3. They didn't retcon anything you dumbass. If you're going to nitpick, at least watch the movie first. You clearly see Rhodey has bionic support on his legs, which was shown at the end of Civil War. And given that Infinity War takes place two years after Civil War and Rhodey has been in physical therapy with the bionic legs, yeah, he's going to be walking again.
4. Opinion, not fact. Sure it probably didn't add to the film, but it was a funny joke. Sorry the MCU films aren't dour and depressing like BvS.
5. You realize how ingrained Greek Mythology is in film and pop culture is!?!? Its not a rip off. A homage if anything. Either way, it's been a while since I read it myself, so how about you elaborate on which specific part of the Iliad someone sacrificed their child. I know it kinda happens in the Bible, which again, who's themes are very ingrained in film and pop culture today. Superman the Movie takes huge inspiration from the Bible with portraying Superman as a Christ figure. So this opinion is merely just a nitpick for the sake of nitpicking.
6. That's Quill's character, dude. You can hate, as I'm sure you're supposed to hate it, but that's just his character. Nitpicking.
7. I already countered your argument about Doctor Strange and you just refuse to accept it. Just a nitpick from you for the sake of nitpicking because this is a MCU film.
8. You must be truly a lonely person in life if you don't understand the concept of love and relationships. I wouldn't expect you to understand something like this, but imagine having someone you love who's "death" -in a way- could save the universe, but there is also an alternative to it where you can still save the universe but still save your loved one. If you can't understand that, then that's not even an opinion or a criticism on your part, it's just nitpicking,... again, for the sake of nitpicking. Oh, also, jumping onto someone else's joke about Vision being a "boy/sex toy" and using it yourself... not very original.
9. You mean like how we were supposed to believe that Superman was really dead in BvS even though we saw the dirt rise from the grave?!? But sure, I'll give you some credit as yeah, BP 2 and Spiderman 2 have been confirmed to come out and does undermine it a little, but there are still high stakes as not everything is going to get completely reversed in the next one and the world will still have to deal with the consequences. And honestly, even though we know some stuff will be reversed, that's the point as now we have to wait and figure out how they're going to do that while we're watching the rest of the world deal with it until it can be reverse. Those are the stakes. Now you don't have to agree with that, but at least I was able to elaborate on the effectiveness of the ending while you din't with your point against it. And the film still managed to subverts a lot of expectations of what you might expect from it, and Holland performance as he's dying and RDJ's reaction as Tony unable to do anything is more powerful than any performance in the DCEU.
10. I'm sure it will be explained in her own film like it was explained in BvS that Wonder Woman supposedly "left man's world a 100yrs ago" so that's why she couldn't help Superman fight Zod even though she's living the fancy life in Paris.
11. Well look at how many characters they have in this. Yeah, expect a lot of jumping back and forth, but it was a monumental feat if anything that shouldn't have worked balancing the screen time and the tone, but the Russo brothers really pulled it off. No, it's not perfect, but no other studio has been able to do it with any kind of cinematic universe and speaks to Kevin Feige's genius of building this entire universe up for 10 years, and quite frankly, DC decided to take the easy way out of not doing that, and look where they are today and you can't doubt that.
As usual, this is just a biased review because you're jealous of the MCU's success.
