Remember the final battle that took place in Wakanda? In that scene, the shield/force field of sorts they have was able to stop Outriders from reaching the metropolitan area.
In regular films, there is a cliche in which they put up a shield like that to wall themselves from invaders, only to be left vulnerable because the shield failed (like in 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2' or 'Thor: The Dark World'). In here, the film shows that the shield actually works and were effective enough to halt Outriders long enough for main characters to fight them off. It is only when they find out that Outriders were heading to Vision's location that they decided to fight them off directly by letting them all in right to their direction.
Thoughts?

A "shield" or wall that protects a city from invaders, until the King decides to open up the "shield" or wall, whereby the invaders come into the city and start killing people. Hmmm. That sounds a lot like The Iliad. So Infinity War copied The Iliad with the sacrificing of the daughter and with the "shield" or wall around the city to protect against invaders until the King decides to open up the "shield" or wall, thereby the invaders come into the city and start killing people. |

Is the Iliad in the public domain or, should Marvel be tried for war crimes for not paying the copyright holder's estate? Do you have a line on Homer's family's current whereabouts, Detective DC-Fan ? Many people are also spirited away in a "rapture" like cataclysm during the film's ending. Should we get Father Francisco Ribera on the line or, do we need to take this to a higher authority? Hee hee hee... |

That scene was a huge missed opportunity for me. It could've been close to as epic and emotional as the Ride of the Rohirrim in Return of the King, but instead they put in a generic score and just focused on the action.
Thor's arrival on the battlefield more or less made up for it, though. That was a great moment until Mark Ruffalo mucked it all up - "You guys are so screwed now!" Can we get a Director's Cut with everything the same except that line is taken out? That'd be nice.

The Banner in The Avengers wouldn't have said. Scott Lang or Peter Parker, maybe. But not Banner. That's the sort of thing that made AoU intolerable. |
