Get ready for the longest non-DW related comment in the history of our friendship.

You really should watch Ragnarok (which I personally call "Thor of the Galaxy" because in style and story it owes far more to GOTG than the other Thor films), it is good fun! You get some really good Bruce/Thor scenes and the Thor/Loki relationship actually moves forward. On a personal note, Doctor Strange's cameo is one of my favourite scenes in the entire movie.

Doctor Strange effortlessly takes apart Thanos's plan to 'save' the universe

The greatest breakdown of this scene ever

Peter dissolving in Tony's arms is EVEN MORE heartbreaking when you know that Tony is the reason Peter is involved in Avengers stuff in the first place (he semi-coerced Peter into fighting for him in Civil War) and so what's running through Tony's head is that this kid is now wiped out of existence because of him. (It's more complicated than that but that's how Tony would see it.)

Bucky dissolving right in front of Steve was a kick in the stomach for me as well.

Chris Evans is one of the few men who looks tasty both with AND without a beard (I didn't know that was possible). Also when Steve stepped out of the shadows and the Avengers instrumental kicked in, my heart began to pound with anticipation and I was not disappointed.

"This is a friend of mine, Tree."
"I am Groot!"
"... I am Steve Rogers." - Truly adorkable

This moment when I thought "YOU SHOULD HAVE WATCHED MORE ZOMBIE MOVIES, THOR!"

This moment

You are right in that this movie is stuffed full but I think the Russos do a very good job of keeping things moving, I can't remember it ever dragging.
