How I would conclude the next Avengers movie

I’m going to be discussing major spoilers for the end of “Infinity War,” so be warned (although I don’t know why. Chances are huge you’ve seen it already.)

So basically Thanos won. He wiped out almost every superhero that was introduced post the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie, and almost all of the Guardians as well. Scarlet Witch, Spider-Man, Doc Strange, every Guardian but Rocket…it’s a bloodbath except no blood. That would certainly explain why Marvel has been coy about its slate of upcoming movies. Common sense would seem to indicate that they’re not going to leave newcomers like Doc Strange or the Black Panther, who set worldwide box office records before “Infinity War” shattered them, on the dust heap of the Mad Titan’s answer to overpopulation. If they do, then that’s a pretty gutsy move and everything from here on is moot. But if they don’t, they must have a plan to bring them back.

Here’s what I would do.

I would have Captain Marvel meet up with Adam Warlock, whose presence was first hinted at in the closing credits of “Guardians 2.” She convinces him to aid her in her battle against Thanos. Along for the ride is the ectoplasmic form of Doctor Strange, who bailed out right before his body disappeared. Marv, Doc, Warlock and whoever else is still alive square off against Thanos. Warlock manages to pry the Soul stone from the Gauntlet. Gamora emerges from it and zaps the ever-loving crap out of Thanos. Perhaps even stabs him with that knife of hers. Warlock removes the Gauntlet, puts it on, and uses the power to undo everything that the Gauntlet was responsible for, which would bring back everyone except Loki and Heimdall who were killed without the Infinity Gauntlet.

That’s what I would do.
