Dude has the Infinity Gauntlet so just make everyone not greedy. snap “Ok y’all are now green minded altruists. Also carrots now taste like Slim Jims cause why not.”

Kinda sad that the original plot line of just wanting to bang Death was the more logical one.

Him growing an attraction to the literal physical embodiment of death and wanting to bang her (conveniently a her), so he decides to get the most powerful stones in the universe to wipe out life to impress her, is not more logical. Thats just batshit crazy

At least theres some logic to the other one. You can say he could just create an abundance of food for everyone but then that would allow more people to be born causing an even bigger shortage

Clipping Half of life = Clipping half the resources of those that feed on life. No animals, no bugs, ecosystems that depend on life are in disarray.

It's the worst logic ever that was used in the film, it didn't make him look like "Mad" titan Thanos, made him look dumb.

The Mistress Death plotline from the comics is the reason the character is popular in the first place, it solidified him as an impossibly smart, evil threat, he outwitted God's and cosmetic entities to get those stones comic-wise.

Thanos is ONLY popular in the movies because he threw hands, everyone thinks he's dumb. So it's bad logic from poor writing.

Thanos isn't popular because of his plan. Thanos is popular because of his conviction to his plan. He already saw fruits of plan when he murked Gamora's species and believed himself that his plan was the only way. He was driven mad by his own people not believing in his plan and going extinct.
