Are There Enough Daddies In Avengers: Infinity War? Twitter’s Too Thirsty To Say
By now nearly everyone has seen Avengers Infinity War once. If not, there’s enough nerdy journalistic coverage for everyone to learn the intricate details of every aspect of the movie. Of course, websites aren’t the only ones who’ve worked up a mighty thirst over Infinity War, Twitter is also in an uproar over the number of “daddies” featured in the film.

Avengers: Infinity War has been argued as the most ambitious cross-over film in history, bringing together characters from across the franchise to complete the major arcing story. Still dominating at box offices around the globe, it is making itself one of the highest grossing movies of all time. But one question that hasn’t been answered by the directors, actors, or influx of articles dissecting every moment is; “Are There Enough Daddies?” Twitter is far too thirsty to answer this question, so the author of this article has taken it upon himself to examine it further.
Mild Spoilers Ahead.
CAPTAIN DADDY:
The first Avenger is also arguably the first to be named Daddy in Infinity War. Ovaries and testicles exploded indiscriminately as Captain America stepped from the shadows in the teaser trailer with a full beard. Thus, Captain Daddy was born:

And the look served as an awakening for some:

Of course, Cap isn’t the only one from the 1940’s who’s still got it:
BUCK DADDY:
After some time off in Wakanda, Bucky Barnes is brought back into the fold and audiences hearts. The Winter Soldier definitely didn’t pull any punches in the battle for the universe, and apparently, fans don’t want him to stop there:
Bucky barnes could punch me in the face and I would say thanks daddy

Of course, some fans found a way to poke fun at other Avengers in the process:
this picture cracks me up so much seb looks so fucking hot like yeah ur daughter calls me daddy too and CHRIS IN THE BACKGROUND LOOKS LIKE AN ACTUAL SUGARBABY WITH HIS STUPID COFFEE MY HONEY BLESS HIS HEART pic.twitter.com/CTZVAhnqdP

Speaking of Wakanda:
DADDY T’CHALLA
Black Panther jumped from a solo film right into the fray of Infinity War. With little downtime between films, fans have been fawning over the king of Wakanda for many months now. Much love for the films diversity made it one of the best films in the franchise, and it would seem that some fans got a bit parched in the process:
black panther is daddy
— bianca (@_bguapa) May 5, 2018
In some cases, T’Challa was yet another awakening for fans even before Infinity War:
was watching black panther at a party and when chadwick did a flip onto a car the only thing my Galaxy brain could process was the word ‘daddy’ and by the time I realized I had said it aloud it was too late
— caroline (@rickdeckards) May 10, 2018
In the end, his Daddy factor even transcended sexuality:
I may be gay but black panther can be daddy 😂😂😂
— Menace 🔪🥰 (@Loving_Azerath) May 6, 2018
But an old Wakandan rival is giving Black Panther a run for his money:
THICC DADDY M’BAKU:
This badass new face of vegetarianism took the fandom by storm, showing that Daddies come in all shapes and sizes. The thirst for Thicc Daddy M’Baku ranged from low key to off the rails:
Mmm M'Baku THICK
— i r e n e 🇵🇸 (@Iree_MT) May 9, 2018
One fan even had the Tweet read by the actor in a recent video:
M’Baku could blow my M’Back out if he wanted to.
— me, a fat 🦋🇬🇾 (@SimoneMariposa) February 20, 2018
But are some of these Daddies dad material?
Iron Dad?
Easily the Sugar Daddy of the Avengers, Iron Man’s image may have shifted when he took Peter Parker under his wing. The shift in his character’s dynamic brought him from Iron Daddy to Iron Dad in the span of three movies, and Twitter took notice:

The shift also left some in the strange place of wanting both:

And in the end, some were just outright disappointed:
I wish I was more of a pervert. But I’m not. When I dream, I dream that RDJ is my dad. Not my Daddy. #fml #Freudplease #ironman

But on the topic of things that are Strange:
WIZARD DADDY:
A pivotal character in the Infinity War struggle, Dr. Strange was faced with some hard choices in the film. It would seem that some fans struggled as well, and as the name suggests: some of the Twitter thirst was strange:

Meanwhile, Wizard Daddy made some question the very fabric of society:
My 12 year old cousin just called Dr.Strange daddy now I’m just thinking how this generation is affecting the children pic.twitter.com/YuUiOo25Y0
— abby is moving accounts (@chensoo__) May 7, 2018
But things definitely could be stranger:

But Dr. Strange wasn’t the only showstopper in this adventure:
DADDY ASGARD:
Easily the fan favorite of Infinity War, Daddy Asgard has probably undergone the most transformation throughout the MCU. With his recent haircut, fans seem to love him more than ever. The thirst hit overdrive after Infinity War:
https://twitter.com/HerediaRicky/status/993053347279093760
His celebrated arrival in Wakanda even caught some off guard:
yoo when thor whipped out that new axe in wakanda i accidentally squealed “daddy” really loudly oops
— Stanley Yip 🏳️🌈 (@istanastan) May 5, 2018
And some even claimed him for their own:
https://twitter.com/thatjamp/status/994927615759839232
But Daddy Asgard may not have been the heart stopper fans wanted. Some much prefer:
THICC DADDY THANOS:
Arguably one of the best villains in the MCU, his absolute power and confidence mad many a fan swoon. This lead to some pretty thirsty tweets and, for some, confusion about their life choices (though ultimately brought fans together):
I would 100% reply to him on Scruff on a Sunday morning
— Philip J. Ellis (he/him) (@Philip_Ellis) April 28, 2018
Then there was this observation:
https://twitter.com/kas_ponce/status/993624883341881344
Whoever had you going HNGGGGG in the theaters, it would seem Twitter at least acknowledges that there can never be enough Daddies in the MCU. For fans who haven’t seen the movie, now is the time. If nothing else is taken away from the movie, it has gotten people talking about how perspective has changed:
before IW: calling people daddy is gross
after IW: anyway remember when captain daddy and god of daddies had that cute conversation about that daddy beard and the daddy haircut
