tony stark: literally is held accountable for every single action made by himself along with maximoff and every other avenger, tries his hardest to work alongside ross and 117 countries that all demand superhero registration through the accords as voted for in the UN, despite knowing how much a lot of his team would reject such idea
wanda maximoff: is just a 26 year old kid!
tony stark: is a villain for trying to find a middle ground between selfish team members who refused to be held accountable for being dangerous people and the 117 countries around the world that want them to be held accountable since theyāre all powerful & dangerous people (a lot of which have bad histories, see: wanda) who shouldnt be allowed to just freely use their powers when they clearly pose to be a potential threat to the public
everyone else: gets to do shit
tony stark: is a villain for doing similar shit while also being the only one who fucking cares
Iām hoping if you play this back, itās in celebration.
Thank you Robert Downey Jr. for 11 years of Tony Stark, Earthās Best Defender.
New! Avengers: Endgame Finals.

So this deleted scene has been going around from Endgame and it makes me wonder⦠Why didnāt the Russos put it in? Well, none of are going to know that for sure, but I can give my opinion on why the deleted scene should have stayed and possibly even replaced the funeral scene.
I think most people can agree that the deleted scene after the battle and funeral scene are very similar, like, scarily similar. They both begin with a close-up of Tony, then to Pepper, and then finally pans across all the other Avengers, giving each one of them a moment of recognition. I think even the music is the same in both.
But what makes them different? To me, the difference is all in the uniform. Everyone in the deleted scene is in their superhero garb, as opposed to black dress wear. Why does this matter?
Think of how many times you see a hero fall to their knees.
There is so much emotional baggage packed into the simple movement, and showing that posture while also having each Avenger in their uniform just emboldens that emotional impact even further. These are heroes, the strongest group of people in the universe congregating together on one battlefield, and they have all fallen to their knees. Even after winning, theyāve all been defeated.
Not only that, but they donāt get back up. We never see them stand. The camera pulls away then fades to black, leaving us with an image of the Avengers, smaller than theyāve ever been before, all because of one life lost.
These simple things: the uniforms, the falling to the knees, the setting of the battlefield⦠They all carry so much more emotional weight than any funeral scene could. Weāve scene funeral scenes before, hundreds of times, but itās so very rare we see our favorite superheroes drop to their knees and donāt get back up.
Tony Starkās death is a defeat in their eyes. They may have won, but they lost so much more. We lost so much more. Weād do exactly the same if we were on that battlefield. We fall on to our knees to mourn our losses, to represent our defeats.
This scene was the perfect, emotional send-off we needed.

Mad fucked up about how everyone was head down, on a knee and Rhodey was so overcome with emotion watching his little brother stop moving that he couldnāt even look. Turned around. Couldnāt acknowledge it. He couldnāt look at Tonyās body because it wasnāt moving and it wasnāt right and it wasnāt supposed to be Tony that died first
Avengers Endgame Deleted Scene - Avengers honor Tony after his sacrifice.
This is so in character.. I CANāT EVEN
Ok...ok... THAT UNRELEASED SCENE OF THE AVENGERS ALL GETTING DOWN ON ONE KNEE WHEN TONY DIED TO HONOR THEIR FALLEN HERO. IM SOBBING.
How dare they cut it out... it was.. so important... it showed SO MUCH RESPECT FOR TONY...and...
The fact that Clint was the first one to go down on his knee cuz he just realized he lost another friend... another great loss that he could hardly handle...
The fact that T'challa saw him and followed right away cuz he is a TRUE KING...
Thor's FACE...how many times does he have to lose parts of his heart..
Steve.. Steve... how his KNEES GAVE OUT...
Stephen's FACE... that heartwrenching GUILT...
And god.. god.. did y'all notice.. Rhodey... Rhodey was standing there.. with his back towards his best friend cuz.. he couldn't face this loss... it was too big... I...
how you feeling now, mister "you gotta watch your back with this guy. there's a chance he's gonna break it."?
One of the most moving parts of the kneeling scene is all the Wakandans joiningā theyāre royalty, theyāre on a whole other level to the rest of those heroes, but Tāchalla is one of the first to go down and pay his respects. To show that he was humbled by Tonyās decision. A king, kneeling for a man who saved him and his people. Likeā¦. it just says so much about Tāchalla/ Okoye/ Shuri, and the humility they carry with them.Ā
Tony died for them, sacrificed for them, and now they kneel for him alongside the rest of the fighters.
Rhodey looking around and seeing people kneeling for his best friend thinking, āFinally, they see what Iāve seen this whole time.ā
Thatās all you got? A cheap trick and a cheesy one-liner?
Sweetheart, that could be the name of my autobiography
do you ever stop to think that tony stark had a daughter? like. tony stark. had a daughter. tony stark was a dad. the narcissistic i-donāt-play-well-with-others reckless chaotic playboy became a dad. more than that, he became the softest kind of dad, the kind that talks to their kids with a gentle tone but still manages to make it sound loving, not patronizing. the kind of dad that drops everything, no matter how important (like, i donāt know, the solution to the death of half of the worldās population), to tuck his kid into bed. the kind of dad that goes teary eyed hearing his kid saying she loves him. he finally understood what it was like to love and be loved unconditionally, what it was like to become the best version of yourself for someone, and i, for one, am devastated just thinking about it

Peter: I just realized the Five Stages of Grief - Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance - spell out DABDA and I feel like this is important information.
Tony:
Peter: Sometimes you just need to DAB DA grief away.
Tony: Never fucking speak to me again.
If you mother effers, I'M TALKING TO YOU MARVEL, think for a SECOND that Pepper Potts will not defend her husband's son from the Daily Bugle....
I canāt believe Iām gonna die in a secret Russian base with SteveĀ āThe Hairā Harrington.
I belong here, alone, where I can be who I am without hurting anybody.
