The sacrifice of Tony Stark was 100% unnecessary.

Im surprised no one has mentioned this yet.
The sacrifice of Tony Stark was 100% unnecessary.
I repeat, tony stark unnecessarily committed suicide.
(Daddy has to go now. I love you 3000. But, unfortunately, i love pointless suicides 3001)
Have any of you asked yourself what, exactly, did tony do with those stones?
Let remember, hulk already returned the people who were snapped away. Everything was fine, except thanos slipping through time. Overall, the avengers accomplished their mission: they got the stones and brought everyone back. They just had to deal with that not so small issue of thanos and his army. Hmm …. how do we handle this?
6 stones are absolutely not necessary to defeat thanos and his army.
The wakandans and a few avengers proved they were able to handle the chitauri in part one. Now, throw in the other avengers and some pissed off asgardians, and we are talking about a slaughter - especially after captain marvel* single-handedly destroys their ship, which likely included a large portion of their army and took away their ability to ‘rain fire’. No scene of the final battle shows the avengers struggling against that army. Obsidian was taken out in the first few seconds.
(* another thing many people didnt notice: the name ‘captain marvel’ has yet to be used in either her solo move or endgame)
This leave thanos.
Admittedly, he appears much stronger than in part 1, where he seemed very restrained. But, we see both captain marvel and scarlet witch (another name thats never used, btw) take him on head-to-head. You cant seriously convince me that thanos can take down all of the avengers working together. Strange, wanda, and danvers together could wipe him out fairly quickly.
Sooo … you have 6 infinity stones and the power to do literally anything you can dream of, but at the cost of your life. What do you do:
  • Thanos: wipe out 50% of the population … in the universe
  • Hulk: revive 50% of the universe.
  • Stark: kill thanos and few hundred chitauri? Yep, definitely worth 6 stones and his life ….
But, but, he saved others from unnecessarily dying in the battle, you say
Keep in mind that the avengers had the stones. This means you could separate them, giving each one to a different avenger (ex: strange gets time stone, wanda gets reality, danvers gets power, etc), and defeat thanos and his army quite easily. When you have 6 infinity stones, you do not play defense, nor do you run and hide.
But, but, he didnt kill thanos and his army; he sent them back to their time.
This makes things even more complicated. Does he return them to before future nebula arrived and they have no memory of what happened? If yes, then what prevents the events from happening again? Btw, this is why i hate the use of time travelling.
Why, oh why, did tony waste a snap - and, by extension, his life - to end a battle that they were already winning?
Thanos: I am inevitable
Stark: and i …. am …. stupid and unpredictable :(

What is something that need not be said?

To begin with: For girls- Never tell a guy no matter if he is younger than you or your best buddy, that their ‘post-office' is open  in front of people . It embarasses them like hell.   (Of course take him in a corner and point that out.) A dark skinned person “You are looking fair  today.”  What do you mean by today anyway? A topper, “Why do you even need to study? You will top this time too.” (Sounds irritating like hell.) A person who manages to pass, “This time you will pass right?” Yeah, you sound very helping. For guys- A girl that she has got some ‘moustache'. Seriously? Do you want her to haunt you for the rest of your life? To your parents, “I want to do something different in my life than studying.” It might give an Indian parent a mini-attack. (Unless, that's what you want.) To your society's some random aunty, “I am not really planning to marry anytime soon.” Consequences: Either you have an affair, you are depressed, you are going to beco...

What is the single most underrated trait a person can have?

  What is the single most underrated trait a person can have? “Have we ever asked if a woman in  pardah  (draping) feels comfortable? What if she loves her culture? We just decided on our own that it's inconvenient so that we could pin it on patriarchy. May be it's for her good so that she could be safe from evil prying eyes.” Sounded meaningless? Well, it won't now. Just replace  pardah  with a  veil over entire body,  strangulating the entire freedom with wholesome swathe. “ Have we ever asked if a woman in  entire body-veil  feels comfortable? What if she loves her culture? We just decided on our own that it's inconvenient so that we could pin it on patriarchy. May be it's for her good so that she could be safe from evil prying eyes.” Why did the  veil  feel okay second time? Because the  veil  of pseudo-intellectualism clouded our judgement. What's the most underrated trait a person can have? Being a lesser hypocrite. ...

What i noticed that i think othersdidn't in Avengers : Endgame ?

The next few lines of my answer are related to the phenomenal once-in-a generation blockbuster movie which an emotionally and mentally painful journey for a few individuals who have looked upon this iconic scenario from the dawn of the cinematic universe and though judging by the record breaking spree of the aforementioned cinematic blockbuster, the person reading this disclaimer has already been engaged in the activity of contributing to the collection but still if some individual is uncertain of what the next few lines contain, it is best advised to go off from here to your nearest movie displaying houses. Spoiler Alert for Avengers Endgame You all remember some mind blowing scenes from the movie right? Cap holding the hammer, Soul Stone moment, Thanos dying, Gamora back, Hulk reveal, Thanos dying,   ‘On you left', Avengers Assemble and so on. The list of all these fan favorite moments is probably longer than Thor's hair right now, but  one moment  stands apart...
