Seen Endgame 4 times already and will be having my fifth round probably tomorrow. Epic and mind-blowing but bittersweet ending to a spectacular saga. However, I prefer Infinity War more because I felt that the stakes were higher there, despite Endgame having everything that could've made it better than Infinity War. I think that Infinity War flowed better as a film because it was much faster-paced and didn't have to worry about concluding the story. Endgame took its time (which I think it really benefited from overall) but because of that it wasn't as neatly packaged as Infinity War and ended up with some minor pacing issues that IW didn't suffer from. I gotta agree tbh tho I didn't find any pacing issues with Endgame, plus I felt that it was fast for a 3 hour film. It felt like it was only an hour and a half. Infinity War, however, felt like it was less than an hour imo. As for their rewatchability factor, I have yet to decide on which film did it better, even if I've seen Endgame in theaters two times more than Infinity War (five times now for Endgame and three times for Infinity War).

I didn't think there were any major issues but that's one of the more common complaints I've heard and I sort of understand. It feels quite a bit longer than IW despite there being only 20 minutes' difference. I don't mind long movies at all (in fact my favorite is over 4 hours long), but still a lot of people will say that a movie "feeling long" is a bad thing. In some cases I agree but not always.

In some cases I agree but not always. 30 minutes difference, actually. The runtime is always justified by the weight of its story. Endgame had a lot of stuff to deal with. The Return of the King (which I guess is your favorite movie) had a lot of stuff to deal with as well, which is why the 4 hours don't affect the overall quality of the story.

I don't personally have a problem with Endgame's runtime and you are 100% correct. I was just addressing a common issue that some people seem to have with it, and why many people prefer Infinity War because it's so tightly packaged and feels much shorter than it is. And yes, my favorite movie is Return of the King (although I actually think all 3 LotR are of equal quality.)
