The end of Avengers: Infinity War is just as shocking as it is large of scale. Naturally, an interwoven, multi-franchise film universe featuring dozens of important super-powered characters and complex plot lines is destined to come crashing down in an epic battle for the very fate of the universe... and the film does just that.
