Good analysis bro
Between crafting two of the longest films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe(not to mention,two of the most successful movies at the all-time box office), writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely had to make a lot of important decisions when it came to Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.But the hardest part came to deciding who would live and who would die by the time the credits rolled in the second movie.
The screenwriters opened up about their selection process during an interview with Variety, explaining why they chose certain heroes to get dusted and return, while other characters met certain doom — including Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man.
"Both films were conceived and outlined together," said co-writer Stephen McFeely. "We didn’t start writing Infinity War until we knew what the end of Endgame was and that is a conversation that’s happening mostly with Kevin [Feige], Trinh Tran, Anthony and Joe Russo and us. In general, it’s how do we play off characters? And I don’t know if finances or actors really had that much to do with it. What we were trying to do was lead with what’s best for the characters. We felt that that meant that some characters might come to an end because they make an ultimate sacrifice and that’s the end of the journey for them."
Added co-writer Christopher Markus, "I think part of the reason people are finding this so emotionally satisfying is these were characters who had been on paths for over the course of the 22-movie saga and those paths demanded an end. It’s not a situation where you can roll out a James Bond movie every two years, where you just wanted him to keep going ’cause that’s what he does. These people started out in a certain place that had problems that needed fixing and arched over to a point of completion. So, it really is the rightful and fitting end for them. I think if we kept Tony alive or if we killed Cap, it would have wrung false."

So Disney rolled up to Stan in the old folks home and did a sit down with him?
old folks home? you sound dumb.
i have no doubt that over this 10 year MCU ride that Stan Lee was consulted off the books for whatever reason.
it was the same thing with George Lucas. when Disney bought Star Wars, it didnt include him, he was supposed to be hands off. but he was still consulted off the books.
I sound dumb, yet you believe Disney did off the books consulting with a 95 year old man who stopped writing comic books for Marvel in the early 70’s and was a figure head until the 90’s. Almost every story line or arc that the marvel movies were based off were never written by Stan Lee. So why consult with him? No comparison to George Lucas, who wrote the first three Star Wars movies and wrote and directed the 2nd trilogy of movies. So consulting with him to have continuity for the last trilogy actually makes sense.
What is something you noticed in Avengers: Endgame that you believe others have missed?

when banner and rocket went to get thor, he was arguing with a dude playing fortnight whose gamer tag was noobmaster 69...same as the dude playing galaga in 1st avengers.
These reactions are crazy. My theater was not this lit.
The Galaga gag got the loudest laugh out of me during the 1st Avengers.
That's a good thing. I would have asked for a refund if this shit went down in my showing.
As big of a geek as I am, I woulda been pissed in that theater with them cats
Well damn. Disney trying to get everyone back to the theater lol.
Disney like the record labels back in day re-releasing an album just to put the remix and 2 bonus songs on it and call it the Deluxe version.... Lol
I take it one of the new scenes should be the Cap Marvel scenes from her post credits, looking for Fury...
That scene needed to be in there instead of having her just show up to save Tony...
