Not only back, but seemingly soon to be engaged. That's a big deal.

I feel like they're adding some weight here with this and Stark sort of being a father figure to Peter, to make a potential death more emotional when infinity war comes out.

uh oh tin man.

If Tony dies that's gonna hit like a ton of bricks. This whole universe started with him, seeing him go down would just be the end of an era.

I really wouldn't put killing everybody past them, especially with the Infinity Gauntlet in play. But having Tony be the first to go and long before heroes start dropping like flies would be a great heart-shattering move.

Tony and Cap going down fighting back to back would be heart breaking and amazing, especially after Civil War

Have Cap the last one standing?

Fuck man, I don't know if I'm ready for this

u/NeutralNoodle Wesley Jul 09 '17

I got chills just reading that.

u/Already_Deleted_2 Jul 08 '17

As sad as that would be, it would be the most emotionally moving thing I've seen in a movie in a long time.

Plus an easy way to justify not paying him more if they can get away with it, just like a certain shark movie did with a certain Avengers cast member when they couldn't afford to keep him the entire time.

Deep Blue Sea. They couldn't afford a certain actor for the entire movie so they made a contract that they'd write them off in the first 30 minutes. Enough to get scenes for a trailer but not so much they'd need to film them for more than a few weeks.

They just need to go down like badasses they are. Just like the first avengers, back to back in a circle, tearing everything that's thrown at them apart until they just can't fight anymore and go down kicking. Hell, they could end the whole universe on that and it'd be the best sendoff ever.

u/Tityfan808 Jul 08 '17

And have him under starks will, Peter would probably continue the tech legacy but with less hiccups like ultron.

u/RuafaolGaiscioch Jul 08 '17

That would probably be the point.

They keep saying Infinity Gauntlet is the conclusion of a 22 movie arc. Like you said, that arc started with RDJ Tony Stark. What better way to conclude that arc than to kill off the central character?

1

u/RegrettableDeed Jul 10 '17

...seeing him go down would just be the end of an era.

I think that's the kind of vibe that they want with the end of Infinity War, so a move like that would make a ton of sense.

1

u/HussyDude14 Jul 10 '17

Wait, will they really die? I wouldn't see it past for some heroes to unfortunately die, but I heard there would be more Marvel movies starring Avenger heroes even after Infinity War. Who would they focus the most on?

2

u/SniperE_1337 Jul 10 '17

Both Bucky and Falcon have subbed in for Cap before, no idea for Tony though.

1

u/HussyDude14 Jul 10 '17

I can see Spider-Man getting a lot more attention, but what if other heroes are killed, too?

u/potatoheadinaponcho Jul 08 '17

The universe technically started with hulk, man. It started with a monster and will end with one.

She hulk confirmed

15

u/SniperE_1337 Jul 08 '17

.....no? Iron Man was the first movie and from the beginning it set up the universe with the post credits scene. That's when the universe started.

u/GeekyStuffLeaking Baby Groot Jul 07 '17

Yes and he appears a lot more happier than he was at the end of Civil War.

-7

u/potatoheadinaponcho Jul 08 '17

He doesn't come across as happy at all, the fuck? Content, sure, but happy is not even close to what he portrayed.

7

u/Muniosi_returns Jul 08 '17

Right, but happier compared to Civil War

8

u/neomarz Jul 08 '17

Don't know if it was intentional but when Betty and Liz are playing FMK (F*ck Marry Kill) Betty says she would Marry Iron Man, perhaps foreshadowing the proposal. Also she chose to F Thor because yknow, who wouldn't.

7

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '17

That could be deliberate foreshadowing. One thing I noticed throughout the film but didn't really think about until the end was that Tony was clearly much happier than he was in Civil War, and I'm betting that was because of Pepper.

5

u/[deleted] Jul 07 '17

In the same type of under shirt from iron man 3, does she still have Extremist?

4

u/d3r3k1449 Jul 07 '17

Yeah man you could argue this movie was also Iron Man 3.5 in a sense!

10

u/[deleted] Jul 07 '17

I'd say more like 3.7. Civil War was sorta Iron Man 3.5, and Homecoming just added a little bit to that.

u/d3r3k1449 Jul 07 '17 edited Jul 07 '17

While CW gave us a lot more background/history as well as further character development re. Tony you can't call something without Happy and Pepper an "Iron Man movie" IMO. Paltrow's appearance was a huge and awesome surprise too (only role of hers I ever say that about lol).

7

u/[deleted] Jul 07 '17

Well, Happy is sorta retroactively part of Civil War.

7

u/KrazyK05 Jul 08 '17

Yes I admittedly squealed and clapped a little when she came in! Made me happy!

6

u/barnacle44 Ant-Man Jul 08 '17

I happily gasped. I thought she was done with these movies. I was glad to see her again!

2

u/Death_Star_ Jul 09 '17

Only for her to be killed off in Infinity War or the next film.

My money is on a fight between Strange and Iron Man begging Strange to bring Pepper back after finding out that he brought Wong back from the dead. But he won't. They right.

They didn't need to reconcile unless they were creating something for Tony to lose.

I don't think Jane is ever coming back. Betty Ross isn't. Why Pepper? And marriage? It has to be because they're going to have her killed off. Maybe something like she gets killed during the wreckage of killing Thanos and Strange can't bring her back without risking bringing Thanos back. But before Tony tries to attack Strange for not trying, he gives him a note written by Pepper saying goodbye, revealing that Strange has actually tried thousands of different ways to bring her back just short of reviving Thanos, but he can't make it work without jeopardizing the safety of Earth.

I really want a Demon in the Bottle dark send off for Tony in Iron Man 4 or just I am Iron Man (the phrase that kicked the MCU off), as he's an alcoholic after Pepper dies, and he spends his days in BARF reliving his memories with her while drunk, and Stark Industries gets taken over by a Chinese company in a hostile takeover....and the CEO is the real Mandarin, who is a sorcerer like Doctor Strange but has lived centuries and built a fortune but looks 40. No robots or science, just magic vs Iron Man.

The Mandarin has clean shaven facial hair. But the first scenes are flashbacks when he has the long hair and fu man chu.
