My Secret Garden: May 2018

We are not pleased with this man. At all.Marvel

Warning: There are massive spoilers ahead for "Avengers: Infinity War."

"Avengers: Infinity War" is in theaters and you're probably going through a range of emotions after finishing the movie.

While you're processing the two-hour-and-40-minute movie, we know you probably have a lot of questions. What's going on with Bruce Banner? What did that end-credits scene mean? And is Tony trapped in space?

Let's work through all of it together. Keep reading to see the biggest questions we have after "Infinity War."

What was up with all of the characters vanishing into thin air?

Did this catch you off guard? Marvel

At the film's end, we watched as beloved characters ranging from Tom Holland's Spider-Man to Black Panther and Bucky Barnes horrifyingly disintegrated before our very eyes.

If you were too traumatized to piece together what was happening in the moment, there's a simple explanation.

Thanos said earlier in the film his plan was to wipe out half of the universe's existence to create a balance and that's just what he did.

Wait, so are all of those characters really gone ... or dead?

We're not planning on all of these guys staying gone for long. Marvel

For the moment, it would be safe to assume, yes. Spider-Man, Groot, Doctor Strange, Bucky, Drax, Mantis, Black Panther, Scarlet Witch, Nick Fury, Maria Hill, and Peter Quill are all dead.

They surely weren't raptured.

But that doesn't mean they'll stay dead. As we saw near the end of the movie, Thanos was able to easily turn back time to change events as he saw fit. Who's to say everything can't be undone? Plus, there's no way Spidey's staying gone. He has a sequel set for 2019!

You can read our full explainer on the end of "Infinity War" here.

What's going on with Bruce Banner and why can't he access the Hulk?

Banner has some unresolved issues to work out with the Hulk. Marvel

The entire movie, Banner has trouble turning into the Hulk. Multiple times the green guy refuses to emerge, refusing Bruce quite emphatically.

What's going on?

We're not completely sure, but maybe Hulk is suffering from some sort of PTSD after going a round with Thanos, getting beat, and thinking he let his pal Thor down. We'll probably get more insight in "Avengers 4."

You can read more on Banner's inability to access the Hulk here.

Where are the other prominent characters who were aboard the Asgardian ship with Thor and Loki?

We were surprised Tessa Thompson's Valkyrie didn't appear at the film's start alongside Thor on the Asgardian ship. While it looked like the Asgardian population was decimated by Thanos, it's tough to imagine Valkyrie would be killed off screen.

Did she manage a quick escape or is she floating through space? And speaking of other Asgardians, when may we see Sif (Jaimie Alexander) again?

Are Korg and Miek still alive?

Korg was played by "Thor: Ragnarok" director Taika Waititi. Marvel Studios/Disney

They were two of "Ragnarok's" most fun additions. Hopefully, they're still out there somewhere in the multiverse.

Where are Ant-Man and Hawkeye?

We were missing two of our superheroes in "Infinity War." Marvel

It's briefly hinted the two went their own ways after refusing to sign the Sokovia Accords.

We won't have to wait long to find out what Ant-Man has been up to since "Civil War." "Ant-Man and the Wasp" hits theaters on July 6. Perhaps Hawkeye will show up in his movie in the same way the Hulk was in "Thor: Ragnarok." If not, he should appear in "Avengers 4." He was caught on camera wearing a new suit.

You can read more on what Hawkeye may be up to here.

Why did Tony Stark have a flip phone?

There's a good reason Tony has that phone. Marvel

If you were confused why Stark had a flip phone to call Steve Rogers, it's because Rogers personally sent him that burner phone pre-programmed with a number at the end of "Captain America: Civil War." Cap's a fugitive of the law on the run after refusing to sign the Sokovia Accords which would've made him basically a hero under the direction of the government.

You can read more on Tony's flip phone here.

How will Tony get off of Titan?

We're also not sure how Tony's breathing without a helmet of sorts on. Suspension of disbelief, I suppose! Marvel

Thankfully Stark is on Titan with Nebula, who unlike Stark, knows how to pilot a ship so they can escape.

Hopefully, they'll find the Guardians' spaceship or one of Nebula's intact. Otherwise, Stark may need to build something to find a way to communicate with others back home or get off of Saturn's moon.

Can Vision be fixed?

It's not looking good for Paul Bettany's character. Marvel

Vision ceased to exist when the yellow mind stone was ripped out of his head, but his android body remained. Maybe there's something Shuri can salvage if she's still around.

Bruce Banner did say Vision was more than just the stone. He was made up of parts of him, Stark, and Jarvis, too.

Are Shuri and Stark ever going to meet?

Tony would probably approve of Shuri's sneakers. Marvel

Bruce Banner and Shuri had a quick battle of the brains and Black Panther's sister easily outwitted the Hulk. But would the same hold true for Stark? It looks like the two developed similar suits for Black Panther and Iron Man so they'd have something to chat over.

These are two brainiacs we want to see in a room together.

Is the Collector actually dead?

The Collector was holding onto the reality stone after it was given to him by Lady Sif.Marvel

We know Thanos retrieved the red reality stone from the Collector's place on Nowhere, but we didn't see how it went down.

It's easy to assume the Collector was killed. However, we didn't see his body. And if there's no body, then anything goes. Since the Collector is one of the oldest living beings in the universe, that would be a pretty big loss.

We also refuse to accept Marvel would kill off the Collector before he can be seen on screen with his figurative brother, The Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum).

Will Adam Warlock come to save the day?

Ignore that gem stone in his head. Marvel

In the 1991 comic "The Infinity Gauntlet," Adam Warlock leads a team against Thanos after half the world's population starts vanishing.

There's just one problem. We haven't seen Adam yet in the Marvel Cinematic Universe — in the flesh anyway. Adam was actually teased at the end of "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2." During an end-credits scene, one of the villains, Ayesha, is hovering over a chamber housing, what she refers to as, "the next step in our evolution."

Ayesha says she'll call him Adam. "GotG Vol. 2" director James Gunn told Slashfilm Warlock was originally supposed to have a larger role in the movie. So don't be surprised if we see him show up in the next "Avengers" movie. Stark and his gang are going to need all the supernatural help they can get.

You can read more on Adam Warlock here.

Where does Captain Marvel come into play?

We're down a lot of superheroes. Earth can use all the heroes it can find right now. Marvel

The movie's sole end-credits scene teased Captain Marvel is on her way when Nick Fury sent out a distress signal asking for help.

We'll get the backstory on the heroine's origin story when she gets her own movie March 2019 set in the '90s. Then, she'll hopefully be on her way to help the remaining Avengers take down Thanos in next summer's "Infinity War" sequel.

You can read more on the end-credits scene here.

Will Nebula work alongside the remaining heroes to stop Thanos?

Her character winds up eventually stealing the gauntlet from her father in the comics. Maybe she'll help put an end to his rule in the next movie, too.

What exactly is Red Skull doing on Vormir?

Is he just going to stay there forever?

It was a surprise to see the "Captain America" villain in the flesh. While he said he was transported to Vormir after touching the Tesseract, why is he just hanging around? He told Thanos he was pursuing the Infinity stones, but now that they're all acquired there's really no point for him to stay.

If he wasn't among half the universe who turned to dust at the film's end, perhaps he'll join forces with the remaining heroes to take down Thanos.

Desperate times call for desperate measures ... and allies I suppose.

Was Peter Dinklage's cameo necessary?

Most people thought Dinklage was starring as one of the new movie's villains. But then he showed up, looking much like himself, to help Thor forge a new weapon during a huge side mission.

It seemed more distracting than anything.

Is the Infinity gauntlet all right?

It was pretty banged up near the movie's end. Marvel

When Thanos escaped Thor in Wakanda, the gauntlet was severely damaged. Even if it's wrecked, Thanos can probably fix it with a snap of his fingers.

Is Rhodey OK?

Rhodey's been through a lot. Marvel

When Thanos tossed him we were concerned he may heavily injure War Machine after his "Captain America: Civil War" accident again.

We saw him up and walking by the movie's end, so hopefully he's all right.

Has Thanos been seeing visions of Tony Stark?

How much does Thanos know about Tony? Marvel

In "Age of Ultron," Stark has a vision of the demise of the Avengers. It's been weighing on him for years. When he comes face-to-face with Thanos in "Infinity War," the Mad Titan tells him he knows Stark.

Sure, Thanos probably knows that Stark helped defeat his Chitauri army in "Avengers," but it seemed like there was something more there. Did Thanos have some grand vision of the man who may bring him down one day?

What was the one vision Doctor Strange saw where they beat Thanos?

Did Strange sacrifice himself to save the vast multiverse? Disney/Marvel

Strange says he saw 14,000,605 possible outcomes for their fight with Thanos. Out of them all, there was only one reality where they won.

Did Strange put that plan in action by giving Thanos the time stone and allowing half the universe to die? Right before he vanishes, Strange tells Tony "there was no other way," so hopefully they're on the right path.

Can Thanos only be killed by chopping off his head?

That sounds really uncharacteristic of Disney. Marvel

Thor nearly manages to kill Thanos by plunging his newly forged weapon straight into his chest. (Great job!) But it doesn't finish Thanos for good. Instead, he tells Thor he should have gone for the head.

Since Thanos has the time stone, he can easily turn back time and fix any injury he receives. That's a bit tougher if he doesn't have a head. Does that mean that's the only way the remaining Avengers will be able to defeat the Titan? Thanos may regret giving Thor that tip later.

Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians) asked us to design his house. This is what it looks like now.

Malaysian-born Hollywood movie star uses Recommend.my to find an interior designer for his home.

When the movie trailer of Crazy Rich Asians was released, Malaysians and Singaporeans collectively went nuts, and could not wait for the movie to arrive. The main reason? The leading man is Henry Golding.

As the son of English-Iban parentage, many Malaysians (and Sarawakians in particular) see Henry Golding as a local boy made good. Before breaking into Hollywood movies, he was a local travel host on 8TV and Discovery Channel Asia.

Settling down in Bangsar

In 2016, Golding married Liv Lo, an Italian-Taiwanese TV presenter and yoga instructor, in a ceremony in Sarawak. And when the couple is not jetting about, they live in the residential suburb of Bangsar whenever they are in Kuala Lumpur.

Their home in Bangsar is in a 30-year-old apartment, and when the couple purchased it, its age was certainly showing. The apartment was dark, parts of the walls were stained, and the floor tiles and kitchen cabinets looked dated.

So when the actor needed to find an interior designer that could help transform the property into his matrimonial home in Malaysia, he turned to Recommend.my.

Recommend.my is Malaysia’s top home improvement website, used by thousands of homeowners to find the best designers and contractors for their home. The company also operates Recommend.sg in Singapore.

After submitting his interior design request, our team got to work in sourcing for suitable pros to respond. And the interior design team that ultimately rose to the challenge was Mil Yung and Edward Lye from MIL Design and Construction.

Breathing new life into an old condo

As Mil explains, “The challenge of this project was to create a new home, a new living space within a very old structural shell, marrying in new functions and space planning with the existing.”

“Spatially there were a lot of restrictions we had to address: the narrow entryway, low ceiling height, noise from the elevated MRT train nearby, lack of sunlight, large beams, the overall cluttered and narrow space of the living area, the redundant large balcony, and a dark enclosed kitchen.”

“We chose to approach the whole project differently, rather than complying with the existing space. We seek to rebel and challenge the space.”

Once the actor was connected to the design team through Recommend.my, the design process began in earnest.

“He was very involved with the design process and even sketched his ideas out for us. We loved working with him it allowed us to design very accurately around their lifestyle needs” added Mil.

After detailed design discussions and reviews, the initial plan and mood board was finalised. The materials used were kept as natural as possible. Bare bricks, white ash timbers, hexagonal black penny tiles and Volakas marble added a touch of finesse.

An unconventional approach

As Mil describes, “The client requested for a ‘kitsch-industrial’ style mixed with a slight ‘brutalist’ language. It’s something very unconventional in Malaysia.”

And because the client was keen to create an open space, the designers totally flipped the living room around, so much so that there was no clear boundary for living, eating and chilling out.

The result is a completely open floor plan that integrates the kitchen, living and dining into a single space. Taking it further, the false ceiling has also been completely dismantled, opening up the space vertically.

The kitsch industrial style has been applied throughout the property, turning it into a warm and inviting space to entertain and relax.

The colour theme is blue and gold (a play on the client’s name, perhaps?). The primarily white walls and white floors are punctuated with a storm blue feature wall, and exposed painted brick at the dining area.
