10 Off-Screen Movie Moments Audiences Deserved To See
1. The Destruction Of Xandar - Avengers: Infinity War
The third Avengers movie almost wasn’t an Avengers movie, as in reality the main character of the piece was Thanos. The Mad Titan was at the centre of the titular war fought across the universe, and fans had been highly anticipating his infinity quest since 2012.
Everyone knew that the villain would ultimately collect the six Infinity Stones and snap his fingers, but the journey is just as important as the destination. How exactly would he wrestle the gems from some of the most powerful beings in the universe?
At the start of Infinity War, Thanos had boarded Thor’s Asgardian refuge ship and could almost taste the Tesseract, but this wasn’t his first stop. By this point, he had already obtained the Power Stone when he attacked and destroyed the Nova Corp and Xandar a week earlier.
Though it is genuinely difficult to find fault with Infinity War, why could we not have seen this?! Thanos and his forces overrunning an entire planet would have been one of the most explosive ways to bring the villain to the screen, and even though there was the flashback to his exploits on Xen-Whoberi, fans do have the right to feel a little robbed on this occasion.
