Rewatched the Endgame elevator scene and I still can’t let this go.
Howard tells Tony his wife is expecting. Tony doesn’t smile. He doesn’t get emotional first. He looks confused… then immediately asks “how far along is she?”
Tony knows his own birthday. He picked that year on purpose. So why does the math suddenly look like it doesn’t add up to him?
Was it just the shock of standing next to his dad? Or did Tony clock something off about the timeline?
Be honest. What do you think that look was?
Thanos didn’t beat the Hulk.
He embarrassed him.
No full gauntlet. No army. No “I am inevitable” speech. Just hands. And Hulk, the guy the MCU spent 10 years treating like a walking nuke, got folded in under a minute.
Then Hulk hid for the rest of the movie.
So either Thanos is just that much stronger… or MCU Hulk was never as strong as the movies pretended.
You don’t get to call him the strongest there is after that opening.
Who actually wins that fight if Hulk isn’t rusty and scared?
@Genghistwelve It was never only about saving mutants. It was about making sure he was never the one being dragged again. Protecting his people was the justification. Control was the point.
The first scene of X-Men is a child getting dragged away from his parents.
The last act is that same child building a machine that forces a change on people who never asked for it.
Magneto spends the whole movie talking about never being helpless again. Then he straps Rogue in and does to humans what was done to him.
So was the plan about saving mutants… or about making sure somebody else felt that gate close?
Because the movie never treats that as a coincidence.
@kuaroo_@TheCinesthetic@DanielRPK Concert movie is the right insult. Theme park at least puts you on the ride. This is just everybody walking out, waving, and leaving
The reshoots for AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY will reportedly add a lot more cameos.
Marvel is apparently using the additional photography to expand the already massive ensemble.

@TheCinesthetic@DanielRPK If they’re adding more this late, it better actually change the movie. Another 8-second group shot of people we already know are in it isn’t a cameo, it’s padding.
@emmywayne64 He didn’t have one.
That’s the hole. Snap half, retire, hope people stay grateful.
They don’t. Populations bounce back. Then 2014 Thanos watches it fail and switches to “burn it all and start over.”
The first plan only works if nobody rebuilds. They always rebuild.
@regalredstar Pepper wasn’t pregnant in Infinity War.
Tony dreams about a daughter named Morgan and Pepper shuts it down. Morgan is born after the Snap, during the five years.
That’s why he’s scared time travel erases her. She only exists in the life he built after everyone was gone.
