if thanos wanted to kill off half of the population because there weren’t enough resources……..but then snapped half of the vegetation and animals (according to the russos)……..then isn’t he back at square one……………and there aren’t enough resources for the population……………

what about……..all of the empty and abandoned planets……..he couldn’t have restributed populations there? or like………..what about endangered species they’re pretty much gone now thanks to T Hanos…………..he really didn’t think this through………….

this is deadass what part 4 is gonna be. like he’s gonna realize “huh…. maybe this wasn’t a good idea” and reverse time.

Or he literally could have just doubled the resources

Maybe I’m wrong but all he would need is the Space Stone to teleport and  redistribute resources + life. But I guess killing half of all life made more sense.

Or he could’ve just created more planets and teleported the halfs but a bitch is too dumb

He can throw a moon for a fight but teleporting some resources is too much work?

He can change reality but he uses it to fake his death and do a power point presentation?

He has the time stone, in which he could literally go back in time and save his home planet ….not by killing half of them …but by using these new powers?

T Hanos a stupid mf and needs his ass beat asap

Thanos’ plan made way more sense when it was to try and bone a skeleton.

It’s not often you can say that changing a story so it’s not about a man trying to have sex with a Space Skeleton makes it LESS coherent and sensible but here we are

1. yeah they really should have stuck with the skeleton fucker thing

2. Are you surprised Thanos genuinely thinks this is a good plan? His entire civilization somehow Mr. Magoo’ed their way into being a space faring empire without ever figuring out renewable energy or sustainable farming practices, and when they found themselves in some kind famine, apparently the only two options presented were to kill half the population, or implode and die, somehow. And they decided to just implode and die, so efficiently that thanos is the only one left,, somehow. The Titans were clearly a race of Magnificent Idiots and Thanos is carrying on that proud tradition.

I have ranted about this before but like, there was some genuine potential in this bullshit? that gets completely ruined by the narrative treating Thanos’s plan like it has merit.

If they’d addressed it for being as stupid as it is and let it reinforce Thanos’s characterization as a short sighted egomaniac, it could have been a great plot point.

but the minute they give it an inch of legitimacy or treat it like a sincere moral quandary and try to frame Thanos as a sympathetic character just doing the hard job that no one else wants to do?

That turns what could have been a solid and interesting character motivation into a load of bullshit that makes it look like the writers dont know how google works.

The only way Thanos’s plan “makes sense” is if you assume he had just committed to it long ago and now he’s in too deep to reconsider, psychologically.

My headcanon is that the actual destruction of Titan was a war he caused because no one would listen to his Malthusian doomsday nonsense.

Having wiped out his own people in pursuit of his short-sighted ideas, he has two paths before him: insist he was right about everything which makes their deaths the side effect of their stubbornness rather than his, or reflect and grow which means admitting to himself that he destroyed his own world for no reason.

So he goes out into the universe and doubles down, creating an empire that is dedicated to recreating his original mistake, while looking for ultimate power to give him what he thinks will be ultimate vindication.

Failure to do anything less than wiping out half the universe is leaving open the possibility that maybe he made a mistake, and each life taken by him or in his name just multiplies the psychic cost of admitting that.
