Thanos was the perfect villain for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He provided a terrifying agenda that quickly became a reality and some even more terrifying quotes. Thanos posed as one of the biggest threats to our beloved superheroes. He was a powerful titan who believed so passionately that everything needs to be perfectly balanced that he was willing to wipe out half the universe just because he thought it was the right thing to do. When the Avengers battled him in Infinity War, many fans expected to see him defeated, only to be met with the loss of their favorite characters.
All this combined to make the perfect villain. He had succeeded, and he had wiped out beloved heroes and innocents alike, and because of all this success, every fan was in awe of him, especially the words that came out of his mouth.
10 “Perfectly Balanced, As All Things Should Be.”
This quote pretty much sums up Thanos’ thought process. He believed that all things should be balanced, even if that meant destroying half the universe.
Thanos was a complex villain since he believed so strongly that what he was doing was the right thing. However, this quote was spoken directly after Thanos took Gamora under his wing and wiped out half of her world. The chaos behind him as well as the screams of Gamora’s dying family forces the viewers to completely disagree with him and paint him as a perfect villain instantly.
9 “You Could Not Live With Your Own Failure, And Where Did That Bring You? Back To Me.”
This quote makes fans shake for more than one reason. On one hand, fans were not looking forward to seeing Thanos again, but on the other hand, it leads up to one of the most amazing fights in Marvel history.
Nevertheless, this line proves how intelligent and prepared Thanos really was. He knew they would come back to try again and he was ready and prepared for it, implying that there is still a chance that the Avengers will not win this battle. It gives viewers a real indication of the power Thanos has and serves as a reminder that The Avengers have lost to Thanos before, and they could lose again.
8 “I Ignored My Destiny Once, I Can Not Do That Again. Even For You. I’m Sorry, Little One.”
Every Marvel fan knows Thanos is a self-centered titan who will push his agenda forward, even if it means killing off his own daughter. However, not many people actually expected him to go through with sacrificing Gamora for the Soul Stone.
Nowadays, this quote rings through fans like a sad song, it reminds them that Gamora never got the ending she deserved and it’s all because Thanos was so power-hungry that he would destroy his own family just to get what he wants, not that he was a great family man.
7 “I’m A Survivor.”
There are often times in Infinity War and Endgame where the viewers and fans actually find themselves either resonating or feeling sorry for Thanos’ past. This is especially prominent in the scene when he explains what happened to his home planet of Titan.
He explains that he watched his home on the brink of destruction and provided them with a solution but they refused to take it (rightly so) and therefore the planet died. It gives a sense of motivation as well as a personal reason for Thanos to be so passionate since he doesn’t want the same to happen to anyone else, but then again he is actively forcing that on other planets.
6 “I Know What It’s Like To Lose. To Feel So Desperately That You’re Right, Yet To Fail Nonetheless. It’s Frightening.”
When it comes to Marvel, the villain always loses. But to have one that knows what it feels like yet comes back again to fight becomes all the more terrifying. Thanos knew loss, he knew heartbreak and he knew what it was like to fail, yet he felt his cause was so important that he kept pushing through.
All this highlighted how dangerous this man actually was because, rather than giving up after he lost the first time, he learned and kept on fighting which lead him to succeed.
5 “Fun Isn’t Something One Considers When Balancing The Universe. But This… Does Put A Smile On My Face.”
Throughout Infinity War, Thanos was seen as the Titan who was hell-bent on destroying half the universe. He was calm, controlled, and pretty callous in his willingness to murder beloved characters like Loki. However, when he mentions that he is actually having a little fun he ends up truly revealing his evil nature, which sends a shiver down fans’ spines.
Thanos ended up enjoying the power he had from the stones and the battle became less so about balancing the universe and more killing half the universe instead.
4 “What Did It Cost? Everything.”
Whilst this word may not mean much to people who aren’t fans of Marvel, but it means the world for everyone else. After Thanos succeeds in killing Gamora for the Soul Stone he is transported to a different land to contemplate what he did, whilst doing so he is met with young Gamora who asks “what did it cost” to which he responds “everything.”
At this point, fans are reeling from the death of Gamora and for many, it’s the final blow in their hatred for this Titan.
3 “Your Optimism Is Misplaced, Asgardian.”
This scene is heartbreaking and really the first time the viewers get the sense of how powerful Thanos actually is. Fans watch Thor, completely helpless as he watches his brother Loki make a desperate attempt to keep himself and Thor alive. However, rather than just giving him what he wants he tries to go against Thanos and pays the ultimate price for it.
It isn’t really the quote that makes fans shake but rather the scene it’s linked to. Nevertheless, it brings back some bad memories that no one wants to relive.
2 “I Am Inevitable.”
Perhaps one of the most famous quotes in Endgame, this line made fans freak out when they thought Thanos had won yet again.
After such a fantastic fight Thanos still ended up with the stones, so when he looked in Tony Starks’ eyes and clicked his fingers, everyone thought it was a lost cause yet again and that they would have to say goodbye to their friends yet again. Despite the success, it’s still a line that rings in the ears of fans.
1 “You Should Have Gone For The Head.”
When watching Infinity War, this line is really one of the only moments where fans think The Avengers have succeeded. When Thanos is just about to click his fingers Thor drives his axe into the chest of Thanos with what should have been a fatal blow, only to be met with this quote, “You Should Have Gone For The Head.”
Not only is this infuriating but it is the exact moment where The Avengers and the viewers know that for once, the good guys have lost.
