| Topic | Was Avengers Endgame actually off-message? *SPOILERS* (article) |
| Polycosm 04/02/20 3:09:25 PM #15: | Endgame is such a massive movie, it's ripe for a range of interpretation. That said, I don't find this take to be a compelling one. I mean, just to focus in on the central character (because I don't have time to write about all of them)... Tony's relationship with Pepper had been growing since the very beginning of the MCU, and his relationship with his father was central to the Avengers splitting up in Civil War. It would be weird if the movie didn't spend some time resolving those relationships. (And keep in mind, this comes after Infinity War spent a good chunk of time on the Tony / Peter Parker relationship). True, the original team is split up for most of Endgame's runtime... because that's how badly Thanos beat them; he destroyed everything they stood for. The turning point of Endgame is when Tony decides to leave his family (by blood) behind to save the people he lost (found family). --- I bow before my emperor, Advokaiser-- winner of the 2018 guru contest.
