Google 'Thanos' For an Epic 'Avengers: Endgame' Easter Egg (cbsnews.com) 48

Zorro shares a report from CBS News: If you're looking for more "Avengers: Endgame" content to fill the void until you get to see the movie, Google has the perfect Easter egg for you. Open Google, search "Thanos," click the Infinity Gauntlet on the right side -- and watch as half of your search results turn to dust. The gauntlet -- complete with the six Infinity Stones -- will snap its fingers when clicked, just as Thanos did in "Avengers: Infinity War." But this time, instead of eliminating half of the universe's population, Thanos will eliminate half your Google Search results, perfectly balancing the internet. Make sure you turn the sound on.

    "Open Google,"

    No.

  • For more fun, open developer console before you start, and get a view of the quality of software Google sees fit to unleash on the public.

    If they really wanted to make it epic, they'd take those results away, permanently.
  • But what they should have done is offer a 1/2 off sale on the older movies in the series in anticipation.

    Of course, this causes the same logical problems as the snap itself- the more you deplete the inventory, the faster it stacks up in response - artificial "demand" at those levels would end up creating a faster glut of inventory, than if you never did so in the first place.

      That's why Thanos was called the 'mad' titan, his plan could never work anyway.

      • It could with one revision: Every time the population doubles Thanos needs to come out of retirement, snap his fingers again, and yell at the universe in general to start using birth control.

    Seriously... it's a mediocre movie at best. Even within the series.

    A drawn-out mishmash of scenes from several scripts, with no clear theme which ends with a "memba this" parade of characters in a messy and overcrowded brawling sequence.
    Which just leaves you reminiscing about the clarity of a similar sequence in The Avengers, 7 years ago.
    Plus there they showed actual team work instead of blind hammering at everything around them without rhyme or reason.

    It's a 3/10 movie at best.
    Which could have been made into a 6/10 IF it had been about an hour and a half shorter, mostly by cutting utterly pointless fan service and pathetic attempts at humor.
    Also that entire pointless intro. And the second one.
    And everything with Thor's newest erectile dysfunction.
    How many times now has THAT been the topic of these movies? We get it - Thor fears he won't be able to get it up.

    Plus a simple line or two of explanation of its time travel concept (say... stones were remains from the time before the creation of the universe and therefore time and space work "differently" with them within our universe - that took me entire 20 seconds to come up with) - instead of ranting at the audience how what they are about to see is stupid and makes no sense.

    It's basically a bad Doctor Who season finale. On steroids and with a bloated budget.
    Which does the wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff wrong.

    • ...and Gwyneth Paltrow.

    • Avengers is bringing the story lines that existed mainly in comic books to the big screen, for a larger population. That means all the advantages and disadvantages of the plots in comic books.

      How many times now has THAT been the topic of these movies? We get it - Thor fears he won't be able to get it up.

      FYI Thor is not in the movies for you, he's eye candy for women.

      Welcome to every superhero movie in the past 10 years. Copy, paste, print for the masses, repeat.
      Gee... I wonder if the goodies will win in this one. Yawn.

    • We're talking about Avengers: End Game, not season 2 of Star Trek: Discovery.
