Remember when we thought just having 4 Avengers in the same movie was too much?

Why did Iron Man sacrifice himself when the Avengers were obviously overwhelming Thanos and his armies?

Because numbers were meaningless the moment Thanos gained control of the Gauntlet.

It was either use the stones to kill Thanos right then or he was probably gonna get them back sometime in the next 3-5 seconds. Killing the rest of his army was basically "well, while I'm here."

Yes that is another thing, why did they brought the Gauntlet to him? He was very underpowered in Endgame, if they would have actually get the gauntlet away from him instead of closer he had no way to chase it. Not to mention they didn't have any real use of the gauntlet by that time. They could have destroy it easily. Without it even if Thanos grabs the stones he can't use them in any meaningful way.

Infinity war was really clever with splitting up heroes and balancing power levels but in Endgame where dozens of characters (who could theoretically solo Thanos) were at the same place the sacrifice seemed really meaningless. Hell even Iron Man could have fly away in an instant with no real way to follow him.

They really need to stop insulting Ant-man when he keeps pulling miracle plays.

Does the gauntlet prevent the user from keeping themselves alive?

Why didn't Tony make sure to "oh yeah, this will probably kill me! hey gauntlet, make sure this doesnt kill me" cover his ass?

>They really need to stop insulting Ant-man when he keeps pulling miracle plays.
That's his gimmick since Ant-Man 1.

>He is just a expendable mook hired for Pym to pull of a heist?
He is capable of beating an Avenger, someone with a better shrinking suit than him and discovers how to exit the Quantum Realm

>He is just weak heroe agaisnt Team Iron Man?
Think again, he is the MVP that ends up fighting alone against the whole team and allows Cap to escape

>He is not needed now that Hope became the Wasp and he was in house arrest since Civil War?
Nope, Hope and Pym still need his help and he ends up saving them.

>He is trapped in the Quantum Realm?
He lucks out and comes up with the heist to save the universe.

>Rocket and Rhodey are making fun of him during the movie?
He ends up saving their lives.

Scott's arc is going to end when everyone recognize him as the great hero he is, maybe if he sacrifices to save the day.

Nobody ever thought this besides MCU fags.

Oceans 11, Saving private Ryan, x-men... there's an endless list of movies even in the recent history before the MCU with 10+ named characters. You disneyfags just like to imagine you created history.

I was bothered by that too, here's how I'd fix it:
>Thanos invades before Hulk can bring everyone back
>OG Avengers fight Thanos and his army alone and struggle
>there's a grapple for the Gauntlet and Tony ends up with it
>looks like he's going to use it to kill Thanos but it seemingly does nothing
>Thanos gets the Gauntlet but not before someone grabs a gem from it
>Tony is still visibly drained from the "defective" snap but keeps fighting or gets benched
>Thanos starts wrecking the Avengers with the gems and things look desperate
>suddenly Strange portals everyone in and they destroy Thanos' forces with ease
>all of them together still struggle against Thanos with the gauntlet
>Thanos gets the last gem but the same "I am inevitable" scene happens
>Tony snaps again and dusts Thanos in the same kino way with him sitting down
>OR Tony puts down the gauntlet last second and destroys Thanos with the Proton Cannon instead
>succumbs to the weakness of the first snap (compounded with the second one in the case of the first scenario)

Some problems I think this would fix:
>Strange bringing everyone in turned out inconsequential when it should've been the Rohirrim charge
>Tony died just to kill Thanos and his mooks when Strange, Witch, Marvel, and Antman could've wrecked them all easily
>this way he sacrifices himself to bring everyone back which is more poetic, selfless, and heroic
>Thanos with the Gauntlet is painted as unstoppable and the true ultimate threat as opposed to relying on his army
>killing Thanos with the Proton Cannon is more fitting for the "I am Iron Man" scene and keeps the snaps to a minimum
>slight parallels with the original Iron Man film where Tony casually uses his suit to destroys threats after seemingly giving up
>the message is "teamwork will save us" and "Iron Man is badass" as opposed to "everyone is useless without the gems"
>the heroes don't resort to the same methods as the villain
>Hulk vs Thanos rematch

Calm down, Scott

Sounds much better. Also I kind of missed everyone from Tony's death scene. There are two or three characters but no Steve for example.

The final battle has all kinds of too many character problems. Heroes had good battles with Thanos together in Infinity war and here they just line up one by one for a short scene. Power levels are everywhere. Captain Marvel feels especially tackled on.

Of course realistically without the gems the battle would've been similar as the one in the beginning where they pile up on him and take him out in seconds. He should've got a few gems to balance things.

>Why didn't Tony make sure to "oh yeah, this will probably kill me! hey gauntlet, make sure this doesnt kill me" cover his ass?
Because the very act of using it unleashes an amount of energy that the regular person can't handle. Just think how average joes are unable to wield the Power Stone, just hold onto it (not even use it), and it took a half-Celestial like Quill and other more durable alien beings to actually use it against Ronan. Using the Gauntlet means activating its full potential, so of course it's gonna wreck a human. By the time the wish is granted, it doesn't matter anymore.

>Why didn't Tony make sure to "oh yeah, this will probably kill me! hey gauntlet, make sure this doesnt kill me"
He was dead the moment he took the stones into his armor. Remember, just putting on the Stark Gauntlet all but crippled Hulk's arm. The amount of cosmic energy flowing through Tony's body even before he snapped Thanos to death was enough to kill him ten times over. He was just lucky most of the energy was radiation so it wasnt an instant death, giving him enough time to make the snap

When a smol one?

Remember when people were all like

>I just can't picture Iron Man being on screen with a talking raccoon
