Avengers: Endgame

Trivia: Spoilers: Captain America being worthy of lifting Thor's hammer Mjölnir is something that is pulled from the pages of the comics directly, most notably in this context the Civil War comics. He'd previously been able to move it fractionally in Age of Ultron - Joss Whedon has implied he was able to lift it the whole time, just pretended he couldn't so as to spare Thor's feelings.

Trivia: Spoiler! After Tony snaps his fingers at the end, a scene was filmed with him having a vision of his daughter Morgan, now grown up, played by 13 Reasons Why star Katherine Langford. Much like Thanos' conversation with a young Gamora in Infinity War, Tony and Morgan would discuss what he'd just done and she'd forgive him, putting him at peace. The scene was ultimately scrapped because there wasn't the emotional connection with an adult version of his daughter, and the Russos dismissed it as "too many ideas in an overly complicated movie."

Trivia: When Steve is watching Peggy through the glass, she mentions that Braddock "hasn't checked in." This is likely a reference to Brian Braddock, known as Captain Britain in Marvel comics. No confirmation that he'll be appearing any time soon - might just be an Easter egg for the fans - but Kevin Feige has mentioned discussions relating to him and the MCU before.

Trivia: Spoilers! The prophecy/vision in Age of Ultron is semi-fulfilled in this film and Infinity War - Captain America's shield is broken in half, Hulk is unable to fight, Black Widow lies on her back in death, same as here, and Thor is in the same position when injured by Thanos as he appears in the vision.

Trivia: Stay to the very end of the credits - there is a metallic hammer sound, from Iron Man where Tony was building the mark 1 armour in the cave.

Trivia: When Hank Pym is shown in 1970 New Jersey, the camera sweeps across his desk, and the original Ant Man helmet is briefly on screen.

Avengers: Endgame trivia picture

Trivia: During the climactic battle, before Doctor Strange returns with the other restored heroes, there is a wide shot of Captain America all by his lonesome walking towards Thanos. This is similar to a scene from the "Infinity Gauntlet" story, where amongst a slew of defeated heroes, Cap defiantly walks right up to Thanos and tells him he will never be able claim victory as long as at least one person stands against him.

Suggested correction: With the exception of Bucky in Civil War and Maw's buddy in Infinity War, only in the Phase 2 movies has someone lost an arm in every movie.

Klaw has his metal arm removed in Black Panther.

Suggested correction: It's not a Spider-Man skirt. It's just a skirt with a black and white spider web design. Especially since the black suit was not something that has happened yet in universe.

Trivia: Spoilers! Tony Stark's line at the end "And I am Iron Man" wasn't in the script, in fact it wasn't even originally filmed, he just snapped his fingers. When editing the final battle together, the directors realised something was missing, and editor Jeff Ford suggested bringing his arc full circle with that line. They filmed it as part of reshoots, only a few months before the movie was released.

Avengers: Endgame trivia picture

Trivia: In September 2018, before the title was announced, the Russo brothers posted an image of the set on Twitter, with the caption "Look Hard." Eagle-eyed fans worked out that shapes within the image spelled out "Endgame," later confirmed by the Russos.

Trivia: Marvel has been responsible for the first film to gross over $100 million in its domestic opening weekend (2002's "Spider-Man", albeit made by Sony), the first film to gross over $200 million in its domestic opening weekend (2012's "The Avengers") and the first film to gross over $300 million in its domestic opening weekend with this film, "Avengers: Endgame." "Endgame" also holds the record for the quickest film to reach $2 billion, reaching the rare number at the end of its second weekend.

TedStixon

Trivia: The title "Endgame" has been teased in two previous Avengers films - most obviously in Infinity War, when Dr. Strange says "we're in the endgame now", but it actually originates more significantly in Age of Ultron, when Tony says "We can bust arms dealers all the livelong day, but that up there... that's the endgame."

Jon Sandys

Trivia: Spoiler! Howard Stark's butler/driver Jarvis appearing marks a rare, maybe even only, instance of a character from a Marvel TV show appearing in the films. He was a main character in the Agent Carter TV series.

Trivia: With this film and counting cameos, Chris Evans will have appeared on-screen as Captain America in at least one film a year between 2011 and 2019. With this film, Tom Holland will also become the actor who has portrayed Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the most films with his fourth appearance as the character - he will beat the previous record held by Tobey Maguire, who appeared as the character in the three films of the original "Spider-Man" trilogy.

Trivia: This is the first film to have the distinction of having the highest worldwide box office gross and not winning any Oscars.

Avengers: Endgame mistake picture

Continuity mistake: While Hulk eats breakfast with Cap, Nat and Scott, the crepe on the top is cut in two. In the next shot it's in one piece, then in two again. (00:38:30)

Suggested correction: The crepe is cut in two in every scene. The angle in the middle scene, does not show the cut as prominently as the first and last scene.

The mistake is valid. It's after the kids wanting the picture are leaving that you see the crepe is intact. You see the crepe from the same camera angle when the Hulk agrees to the picture and it's in half. In fact, in the shot of the crepe intact, it's completely differently coloring with less browning spots, so it's a different prop altogether.

More quotes from Avengers: Endgame

Question: If Captain America had to go back to return the infinity stones to balance the timeline, would he not have to go back to before Black Widow died to return the Soul Stone?

Answer: Well since he wouldn't know the exact moment she sacrificed herself, he might have shown up before then and then just had to wait for everything to play itself out before returning the stone.

Phaneron

Answer: No before Black Widow died the soul stone was still there, he had to get it back after it was taken, so after Black Widow died.

lionhead

I think the poster meant he would go back to the time he knew Black Widow and Hawkeye were aiming for, or a bit before for safety, then go there and wait until Black Widow died and Hawkeye got the stone, and then return it. It would be hard for him to watch, but then he would know when the right time was.

Right. But you also have to think that, having witnessed the events, and then seeing that the Red Skull is the guardian, that would have been a damn interesting scene to watch. Does Cap try bargaining with the Red Skull to return Black Widow to life after giving the stone back? On the other hand, the Ancient One's explanation was that the flow of time occurs simply because the stones are in the universe. I don't think it mattered where they are. She only wanted the time stone back because of how it was tied to the Sanctum. So really, Cap probably could have just thrown the stone in a ditch somewhere and been done with it. It also raises a question about the nature of Vormir as the home of the stone. We see the other stones were more or less fashioned into artifacts and out and about. This implies that they too were in some sort of temple in their raw stone form before being found, seized and manipulated into a real-world application. So does Vormir even have a mechanism for receiving the stone back once it's been claimed? And what is the soul stone's solo power, anyway? Reading people's fates like a crystal ball?

I don't think the red skull is really the red skull anymore, just some kind of ghost of whats left of him. However the stone gets returned is irrelevant, yes he could even just leave it in a ditch somewhere. He didn't return other stones in their original form either, except the time stone. These timelines don't continue on as the original one. According to the comics the soul stone is sentient and everyone sacrificed to obtain is has their soul trapped inside the gem. Cap and the others of course don't know that (although Hulk must theoretically know having used it) or in the MCU this does not apply. When possessing it you can control any life and read their souls (their feelings and desires). One can also revert living things back their original state (like Nebula for example).
