I have a best friend that, if he died, Id be a complete and utter wreck. Hes effectively a brother to me, and if one of us had to jump off a cliff to save the universe, wed probably fight to equally save the others family like hawkeye and Natasha.
Ill fight for him and his family, equally as much as my own. Yes. Theres love within friendships.

In other words, not all love is romantic or sexual. Platonic love is a very real and, in many people's cases, very deep thing.
Disney's Brother Bear and Frozen were even all about that kind of love.

I think the concept of being educated and being able to educate is something that more people need more of in their lives.
No, we don't all know everything but we should spread and share that what we do know.
If I'm consistently misspelling a word, I would want and expect people to correct me as should I imagine all decent people who know the value of good literacy.
Its just arrogant laziness to know you're spelling a word incorrectly and not correct yourself or ignore the advice when people do tell you how to spell a word correctly.

Thing is, if we'd been shown that Hawkeye and Widow had a relationship truly that deep at some point (maybe if there's bee a movie showing them working together as SHIELD agents?), then it wouldn't seem forced to me.
If you took the Hawkeye and Black Widow from Avengers:EMH cartoon, and put them in that situation, I could buy it much more easily.
Part of the problem is that Renner seems to be a flat wooden actor who can do action stunts but seems to be as emotionally withdrawn as Christian Bale (when Bale isn't being a spoiled brat screaming as a member of the production crew).

Again, they've had moments of genuine affection and friendship since the first Avengers film, when Natasha went out of her way to break Clint free of the brainwashing instead of just straight up killing him. I'm really not sure what exactly you want to make the relationship seem real to you when it's been one of the most consistent of the MCU.
Seriously, Clint and Natasha have more screen time together than Nat and Bruce, but nobody bats an eye that those two became an item off screen.

Actually, I thought that (Nat & Bruce) was really stupid.

Pretty much, yeah.
Thanos got it into his head that halving the population of Titan would solve it's problems. Regardless of whether or not it would've worked, they didn't do it, and everyone died...save him. And thus he made the logical leap that he was right. So he's got it locked in his head that doing the same thing on a grander scale will solve everything. He has to be right, because if another alternative works...well, we saw him taking an alternate route in Endgame, didn't we?
I'm glad he's dust now. Dude was a jerk.

The "double the resources" thing doesn't really work though if you apply some thought to it. The logistics of it seem too complicated for even the Mind Stone to manage.
Like, where do these resources go? Will the planets suddenly be overrun with natural resources like flora and fauna heedless of the people inhabiting those places? Or suppose they get put in a neutral place. Is there any guarantee these resources will be distributed fairly among the civilisations that need them? Not everyone's needs are the same.
And it simply wouldn't be in character for Thanos. He doesn't want to rule or manage anything. Would his army be in charge of making sure everyone gets what aid they need?
Plus, he's a cynical, sociopathic butthole. OF COURSE he's gonna wipe people out. It's the fastest, cleanest, easiest way he can see. He thinks doing it randomly is fair and just, which is what, Two-Face Logic? And Two-Face is SUCH a stable individual...

I think it is partly an inertia thing. Thanos always had an idea that he would gather up all the Infinity Stones and fix things in one snap, but he didn't wait for that to happen. He was going planet to planet doing his plan manually and he had no means to double the resources just by showing up with some space whales. By the time he got the stones, he was pretty set in that idea.

I assumed it was done by either one of the Wombats or by Scott's ex-wife and her cop hubby.
