At what point did he lose the plot?
Is it something which has gone gradually as he got older or did something happen?

I love that DC is trying to catch up to Marvel by doing the exact opposite of what they're doing, tone-wise.
"Franchising is the only reason these movies are popular."- DC executive
"But, Bowielee," you may say. "Isn't that true?"
I point to Guardians of the Galaxy. Only loosely tied to the other movies to those unfamiliar with The Infinity Gauntlet. Almost completely unknown by the non-comic public, and even to some who do read comics.

Is it wrong I read that in the voice of the Hidden Master in Valley of the Four Winds?
Something especially - but wonderfully - unexpected about GotG. Spoilered for size.
Linked from that article, even RDJ admits that Guardians of the Galaxy may be the best Marvel movie, even better than his own.

Great, now Nothing Compares to You is stuck in my head.

I could very much see that happening.[DOUBLEPOST=1409854915,1409854831][/DOUBLEPOST]On another note, Brolin did a good job of portraying that weirdly likable aspect of Thanos from the comic.[DOUBLEPOST=1409855031][/DOUBLEPOST]Or his dad is the hulk which explains why his mom got cancer.
i think ThatNickGuy was on the right track with his guess earlier.

I think she'd have died from internal bruising, not cancer.
My biggest issue with that is, unless they change him pretty heavily from his comic origins, he is not ancient. Nor is he technically "alien"
I hope not. I mean, yes to that character showing up but no to his relation to Quill.
As someone who was unfamiliar with the comic versions of GotG, this was my first guess as well when I watched the movie. I thought it was a neat explanation for why Quill could handle the infinity gem and not get immediately zapped.
I don't think Yondu and the ravages would want to pass a guy like Thanos off by not delivering his kid to him.
They act like they pulled one over on his father, like they were confident he'd never get back at them for it. If it were Thanos, they'd be looking over their shoulders every five minutes.

Exactly what I was thinking. I do think, in the end, it will be an Eternal, but I don't think Thanos is the right fit.
Actually, I change my mind. Quill's father is...
HOWARD THE DUCK
But that would make his mother Lea Thompson and Michael J. Fox his brother!... wait...
I'm, uh, I'm going to need about ten minutes alone with this gif.
Actually, y'know what, make it fifteen. Yeah, fifteen.
I think someone's overestimating themselves.
Look, my refractory period isn't what it used to be, okay? I'm not fifteen any more.
I suppose it's an inevitable result of the internet that I see that gif and it's just somebody on the floor, non-sexual and irrelevant? I mean, after some of the shit we've all seen, you know?
Maybe, but on the other hand, we know of 3 people who are going to be tuning in to Dancing With the Stars(?) this season.

Well it sure would fit the ancient moniker, but does not really fit the fact they also said it was an unknown race (at least I am pretty sure they said something to that affect). As far as we know the Asgardians are well known among the galactic community.
