A question I’ve been pondering since watching Endgame a few more times, Could Tony have used the Hulkbuster to wield the Infinity Stones and minimize any damage to himself?

A question I’ve been pondering since watching Endgame a few more times, Could Tony have used the Hulkbuster to wield the Infinity Stones and minimize any damage to himself? I would think so. But I would just guess that he didn't have time to get it. Thanos was not that far away and could have stopped it.

Also the story was that he was always hesitant to make the ultimate sacrifice and in this moment he had one shot and went for it.

I'm not sure any level of armour would have helped Tony.....

Endgame 'theories' are really getting to me, mostly because it is MCU educated fans (not comic book fans) who are coming up with them.
as a comic book fan, even with the whole victimising theme, I have NO bad feelings for Stark dying... this guy has been a real heel in the past (causing so many dramas and hurting for his fellow Avengers), if they were more accurate, he would not be the martyr Captain America should be!

I saw end game. Before watching end game I decided to give the newest Predator movie a look. I thought the Predator movie was awesome.
So as I'm sitting in the theater to watch end game, I couldn't stop thinking about Predator. And that's because end game is so long and boring.
I think they could have trimmed a lot of scenes from end game. It would have reduced the length of the movie and made the movie get to the point.
End game tries too hard to elicit an emotional response from the viewers. I think the producers of the film got confused. They weren't sure if they were making a super hero movie or a drama.
At the end of the film I thought it was completely unnecessary to kill off Iron man. That was done purely to try and make fans emotional.
Iron man built the glove. The same Iron man that built a suit that allows him to go into space and survive the vaccum of space along with it's cold and radiation. The same Iron man that was smart enough to make time travel and teleportation possible. But somehow that Iron man did not forsee the radiation caused by the infinity stones?
Why not just pause the movie, throw up a sign, and tell us Iron man is dead because the actor is done with the character? That would have made more sense than what they did in the film.

As iconic as Downey and Evans became in their roles as Iron Man and Captain America, I can understand why Marvel decided to write out the characters in the end of phase 3 but to be honest, I don't see why they couldn't have recast the roles like DC did with all the different Batman and Superman actors. Sure there would be some people arguing over who is the better actor for the role and memes about "He's not my Iron Man" but overall I think there's more to the fans love of these characters the just the actor who is playing the role. Are they going to kill of Spiderman once Holland gets too old to be portraying a high school/college kid in spandex? Are they going to leave Wolverine out of the Marvel Studios X-Men movies because Jackman defined the role for so long but has moved on now? I mean, look at how many actors have played James Bond, one the most iconic movie characters of the last fifty years and the Bond movies haven't lost any steam. It's actually become a thing for Bond fans to debate over who will be the new Bond, going so far as to lobby for specific actors to get the role. There was a huge push for Pierce Brosnan to play the role and much excitement when he finally landed it. And right now there's an equally huge push for Idris Elba to get the role after Craig moves on.

And right now there's an equally huge push for Idris Elba to get the role after Craig moves on. I dont care who plays what role. I might despise certain actors getting certain roles..... [cough] Pattenson Batman [cough]. But at least the bad actor will be a place holder for a franchise. Iron man will exist after Downey. Captain America will exist after the other guy, who's name I dont know. But when a film commits to killing off a main character, in a super hero movie, it is so counter productive. They kill off heroes because they want to be edgey and counter culture. But I dont need an artsy Super hero movie. I want a movie with action, special effects, and a happy ending. Let me sit, stuff my face with popcorn, turn my brain off for a few seconds, and enjoy. End game was not that kind of hero movie. Also, I just remembered, I hated how Snarky Iron man was. Specifically a scene where he called Ant Man piss ant. Why? Was the rude snarky ness needed?

And right now there's an equally huge push for Idris Elba to get the role after Craig moves on. Because it's one connected universe right now, just like the comics. Feige is telling one flowing story and recasting Iron Man disrupts that narrative. It's the reason the film has made 2.7 billion. This is a 22(23 inside the next month) piece story that had payoff. Look over at DC. You used Batman as an example. Justice League only made 658 million worldwide because nobody was given time to invest in those characters before they got together. And I'd argue Batman and Superman are historically more popular than anyone Marvel has on screen right now, give or take Spider-man and X-men throughout points of the 90s. This is the same situation as X-Men I brought up in the other thread, though. If they do a multiverse, they can bring in a new Iron Man. I think Feige would rather bring in Morgan Stark to carry on the legacy a few years from now. That's the kind of story we're getting out of the MCU. Batman already simulates the Bond franchise. We had West, then Keaton, Kilmer, Clooney, Bale, Affleck, and now Sparkles. It works, but just not as well as what Disney has done since 2008. They're willing to build a new character for a decade rather than repeat a formula you've already seen and so far it's worked really well. Time will tell if that can continue.

I dont know why DC hasn't done better at the box office. Personally, I think, it's because of poor casting. No one wanted Batfleck. And no one wants sparkles. I dont care for the guy playing Aqua Man or the lady that is wonder woman. It seems to me like the people at DC want to cast the flavor of the month in their movies as opposed to good actors. Or taking a chance on new actors. I do know that I didn't care who Iron man was. I saw the Hulk movie with the Australian or British guy as Hulk. I saw the Hulk movie with Norton as Hulk. And I saw the Hulk movie. I didn't care who was Hulk. It didn't make me want to see the film or miss the film. I grew up with Adam west as Batman on TV, then Keaton in 2 films, then Kilmer, then Clooney. The actor behind the mask is secondary to the mask itself. To me the Iron man story does not end because Downey doesn't want to be snarky on film anymore.

To me the Iron man story does not end because Downey doesn't want to be snarky on film anymore. This is hilarious. Endgame was awesome. Not perfect, but damn sure not boring. Dc struggles because the movies suck. Casting is fairly decent. Gal did awesome, Momoa did solid. Then I did some thinking, you're also the one that had an issue with women getting TV time on raw. At this point the only logical conclusion is you got bored and are talking just for shock value.

To me the Iron man story does not end because Downey doesn't want to be snarky on film anymore. But see. The Ironman story does end. That's the whole story they've told for 22 movies. Tony Stark only cared about himself and wouldn't make sacrifices for others. Eventually he got to a point to where he sacrificed himself so that everyone else lived. That's the sole story they told for him. It's over. The Ironman story ended. The end. You can say it didn't end for you but unless you're making your own Ironman movie for the world to see it's over for Tony Stark. Because I doubt you're funding a different ending you could always sign the asinine petition to bring him back. It'll do no good though.

I havent seen Endgame yet (and wont until the Bluray hits) but honestly I still dont feel we've see the end of RDJ or Evans as their characters. I feel this is more a "pause" in their stories and will eventually be brought back into the fold (year(s) down the road)
Outside of Spiderman, Captain Marvel, Black Panther & Doctor Strange whom all have sequels announced, I havent seen anything rumored for the MCU that could help carry the weight of what Iron Man, Captain American & Thor has done.
