Thanos neck-snapping Loki right in front of Thor was just brutal. (I saw a truckload of clips before they all got snatched off reddit, hah.) It was like a foreshadowing of how he killed Vision too. Just tossed them aside like trash once he got what he wanted.
I thought RDJ acted the hell out of that scene (under-acted, really, his eyes are so huge and communicative!) but I just don't like Holland, he's way too young for me. I also thought if we got a long operatic farewell for Peter dying in Tony's arms, Steve and Bucky could have gotten longer than ten seconds. (I also really, really could have done without the prolonged slo-mo Wanda-and-Thanos-paired "I kill the person I loooooove!" bits.)
But Sam really hurt because I hadn't read the comics when I saw TWS and so didn't know anything about Falcon, and I spent like half the movie chanting "No killing Sam! No killing Sam!" because I was so sure as the brother, he would go out -- something like Bucky killing him and then Steve felt Bad, whatever. And I was so totally pleased and surprised when he didn't (and Fury didn't either). And it was like they wiped that away in five seconds. Nobody saw him, he didn't have anybody, it was like he didn't matter.
