It was already pretty well-established that Thanos is a big guy - he's a Titan after all, and you don't refer to anything as titanic if they're not legitimately huge - but it looks like we got a real indication of just how big he's going to be thanks to Josh Brolin's appearance at D23.

The lean, pumped star of Deadpool 2 showed up to unveil the Black Order and also debuted the actual Infinity Gauntlet that his character will be looking to fill with Stones in the film. And intriguingly, it's absolutely bloody massive.

Judging by the relative size difference between Brolin's hand and the Gauntlet, you'd have to assume that Thanos is going to stand at least 9 or 10 feet tall. And given the fact that Cul Obsidian is taller than him by about 2 foot, he's clearly going to be a big guy too.

It might seem like a pretty minor thing, but the revelation confirms that Thanos and his underlings are going to be physical threats unlike anything any of the Avengers have faced before (aside from Hulk, maybe, since he faced the Abomination). And that's a good thing.
