You ever wonder if some people have been watching the same movies as you for a decade?

Completely disagree. All the thought and discussion is what has made these movies so good for the last decade. The first thing that many people do after watching these movies is jump on the internet to discuss.
Right?? Some of the questions people are asking on here makes me wonder how many bathroom breaks they took, assuming of course they were in the right theater in the first place.PatAg said:

How does Tony get the stones at the end? They are in the gauntlet on Thanos' hand, then...poof...they are in Tony's suit hand. Did he already have that part of his suit made? Did he snatch the stones out because he's also a magician?
The whole Nat piece was weird. Yes, she sacrificed herself and that doesn't seem to fit the bill of giving up someone you love. Although, it does make perfect sense she would do that. It didn't make sense that Hawkeye put up a fight about it. He has a family.
In that vein, I would have preferred that Cap put the gauntlet on and sacrifice himself. Tony has a family. And he already sacrificed himself in Avengers (lucky to have gotten back).
Didn't like the Thor change. Just seemed pointless. Also didn't understand why he abdicated the throne.
While the Hulk was entertaining, it was weird.
All that work to get Capt Marvel into the storyline, and that's all she had. Laughable.
Why does Pepper have a suit? Did Oprah have a show where she handed out suits to everybody?
I thought it was OK, but I certainly didn't feel it was incredible.

One of my friends said he was going to specifically watch for how Tony got the stones on his second viewing. He told me he thinks that Tony used the nanoparticles to do the work of retrieving the stones. Or at least that's what he is going to go with.

1. I'm not sure that anything was really "resolved." Somebody mentioned it a few pages back, but they just doubled the population of the universe where things were already chaotic from the aftermath of the snap. I wonder if that will be addressed at all in future movies... I mean, if food production was working at 50% or less for five years and then sjdde suddenly you have twice as many mouths to feed, that's a major problem.
This is definitely what happened. I did the same thing your friend did, watching for that on the second viewing, and you see the nanotech wrapping the gauntlet with the stones around Tony's wrist. I didn't see how Tony was able to activate the nanotech to wrench the stones from Thanos, but presumably they both had their hand on the gauntlet that ended up on Thanos' hand at the same time.Dr. Horrible said:

Lot going on in this post but just want to point something out here. I fully expected Cap to die going into the movie and Tony to "retire". I was kind of like you and thought that made the most sense.Kramer said:

Yep, Rhodey dropped the ball on that one.jsc8116 said:
SIAP, but when present day Nebula burnt/damaged her hand retrieving the Power Stone, but past Nebula returned to the present day, why didnt War Machine notice her arm was magicallyhealed? Did she have it covered by the time travel suit? Only thing I could think of..... was waiting for War Machine to notice that when old Nebula returned back to the Avenger's base.

This worked better though. Cap sacrificed himself 70 years ago when he went under the ice. He needed/deserved the opportunity to go back and have "a life" (something I think Tony would have really wanted for him).
Tony needed to set things right permanently, he needed to rest. He needed this moment because so much of his story has been about failure. Failure in Ultron to protect the world with his creations, failure in Civil War to keep the Avengers from falling apart, failure in Infinity War to beat Thanos. This was his moment to essentially erase those failures and in doing so, he was able to guarantee the safety of his greatest success (his family).
Honestly this movie does a fantastic job of showing the way failure effects people. From Thor's drinking and letting himself go, Black Widow burying herself in her work, etc.

So which was the better or more awesome scene ...
Thor's arrival in Wakanda in Infinity War
or
Cap wielding Mjolnir in Endgame?
These two scenes seem quite similar in the emotional response I noted in audiences. Personally, as a bigger fan of Captain America, I was "Hell yeah!" when Cap lifted Mjolnir but I think Thor's arrival in Wakanda was more bad-ass.

has anybody seen any explanation as to why cap is now deemed "worthy", but wasn't in age of ultron?

The 2 sequences of Cap swinging the hammer tops any of those sequence moment in all of the MCU.

Because he didn't sell out his principles and sign some stupid accords that wouldn't have prevented any of this anyway.
Great thoughts here. Had not heard that from JW.PDWT_12 said:
Two theories I've heard that make sense.
Believe there's an interview with Whedon where somebody asks why he wasn't worthy enough to lift in Ultron and he says "Did he fail? Or did he stop?" So maybe he could have lifted it, but didn't want to take away from Thor or whatever.
Other theory is that in that moment, he knew that Bucky killed Tony's parents, and was hiding it from him. So he wasn't technically pure/worthy. In Civil War he admits to Tony that he knew, and defends his best friend knowing it means exile, making him worthy to lift the hammer in Endgame.
He does in CW. Its what triggers the final fight.Sbisa04 said:Great thoughts here. Had not heard that from JW.PDWT_12 said:

I thought Cap knew that his parents were murdered, but not necessarily that WS is the one who did it. Can anyone confirm?

Something that piqued my interest, SIAP.
At the end, Cap is going to return the stones. Hulk and Falcon are all like, he'll be back in 5 seconds. Bucky says something like "we'll miss you."
I'm wondering if he knew what Cap was planning.
Also, from a production standpoint, I wonder if they filmed a Bucky getting the shield scene as well, so fewer people knew who got it until the movie came out.
