Trivia: Nebula says to Rhodes "I wasn't always like this" and he replies "Me either." Could be referring to his legs, equally a nod to the fact that he's one of the few main characters who's been played by a different actor in the films.

Trivia: The film took inspiration from the Star Trek saga - the last episode of Star Trek Voyager was named Endgame as well and involved time travel.

Suggested correction: It should also be pointed out that "Endgame" as a term has been around a long time. It's a chess term and refers to the final stage of a process or event. "Voyager" might have taken inspiration from Marvel themselves since Marvel Comics have had at least 16 stories titled "Endgame", starting in the 60's. Stories involving The Mighty Avengers, Iron Man, Captain America, Black Panther, Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, The Incredible Hulk, and Thanos.

Suggested correction: Not to be confrontational, but has this actually been confirmed? As in, did any of the filmmakers say that they were inspired by "Star Trek: Voyager"? The fact that the word "Endgame" appears in both titles doesn't mean that one was inspired by the other.

It was confirmed by the producers.

Kevin Feige confirmed that Star Trek: The Next Generation inspired elements of the film. At no time did he mention Star Trek: Voyager.

The episode is also about time travel. Caption Janeway goes back in time to get her ship home faster and save member of her crew.

The fact that 2 things involving time travel also involve the term "endgame" does not mean that one inspired the other.

Trivia: Prior to the film's release, there was a tongue-in-cheek fan theory that speculated the Avengers would defeat Thanos by having Ant-Man shrink down, crawl into Thanos' anus, and then expand. This theory became so widespread that the Russo brothers and even Neil deGrasse Tyson commented on it and why it wouldn't work. Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly also briefly discussed the theory in character as Scott Lang and Hope Van Dyne, respectively.

Trivia: Thanos breaks Cap's shield just like in the Infinity Gauntlet comic.

Trivia: "New Asgard" is based in Tonsberg, Norway, but the filming location is in Scotland. As nods to that, the beer Thor's drinking is a Scottish brand and there's a bottle of Irn Bru on the windowsill.

Jon Sandys

Trivia: Captain America, Thor and Iron Man each have a scene featuring a cameo by directors of their most critically acclaimed solo movies - Cap talking at the support group to Joe Russo (director of Winter Soldier and Civil War), Thor hanging out with Korg (Taika Waititi, director of Ragnarok), and Iron Man with Happy Hogan (Jon Favreau, director of Iron Man 1 and 2).

Trivia: At 181 minutes, "Avengers: Endgame" is the longest theatrical-released superhero movie of all time. (Not counting extended home-video releases).

TedStixon

Trivia: The movie was so anticipated, that the day tickets went on sale, a number of websites selling tickets for the film crashed or experienced delays. It became the top-selling title for first-day online ticket sales, beating the previous record in only six hours.

TedStixon

Trivia: While Nat talks with Steve in the Avengers base on the chair there is a pair of ballet shoes - that's a reference to her background where she was a ballet dancer.

oswal13

Trivia: In the opening sequence on Marvel's logo all the avengers that disappeared with the snap in Infinity War are not included.

oswal13

Trivia: Just after Tony gets the tesseract in 1970 in the far background on the aisle the is a monitor with the green face of Arnim Zola, similar to the one seen in The Winter Soldier.

oswal13

Trivia: Ava Russo, the daughter of director Joe Russo, plays Lila Barton.

oswal13

Trivia: Before settling on saying "And I am Iron Man," the writers toyed with having Tony Stark simply telling Thanos to fuck off, even filming multiple variations of it. Aside from the former line being more poetic, they felt ending the moment on a curse word wasn't the best option, and Disney may have vetoed it anyway.

Phaneron

Trivia: The kids who asked Hulk for a pic are related to the directors Anthony and Joe Russo.

oswal13

Trivia: Is the tenth entry in "Phase Three" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the overall 22nd film in the franchise.

TedStixon

Trivia: The ending credits with the pictures and signatures of the Avengers is a reference to Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country, which ended in the same way.

oswal13

Factual error: New Asgard is in Tonsberg, Norway, but was filmed in Scotland. The truck Hulk and Rocket use to get there has a UK licence plate (SW61 5PN), whereas Norwegian plates use two letters followed by 4 or 5 numbers. Plus the pizza boxes in Thor's house have a phone number in UK format (01632 960776) not Norwegian. In fact, the 01632 area code is specifically designated for fictional use in the UK. Norwegian telephone numbers use fewer digits. (00:48:50)

Korg: Thor, he's back. That kid on the TV just called me a dickhead again.
Thor: Noobmaster.
Korg: Yeah, Noobmaster69.
Thor: Noobmaster, hey, it's Thor again. You know, the God of Thunder? Listen, buddy, if you don't log off this game immediately, I am gonna fly over to your house, come down to that basement you're hiding in, rip off your arms and shove them up your butt! Oh, that's right, yes, go cry to your father, you little weasel!
Korg: Thank you, Thor.
Thor: Let me know if he bothers you again, okay?
Korg: Thank you very much, I will.

More quotes from Avengers: Endgame

Answer: No, his snap simply restored all the people Thanos' snap eliminated. They discuss it before he snaps. Tony reminds him to not try to do anything other than bring the people back.

We don't know that's all he did. Considering the Ancient One's warning that removing a stone for one's universe could have disastrous affects on that universe. One would think he would return the stones.

DetectiveGadget85

She was talking about removing them from the timeline, nothing about destroying them. According to the comics when the stones are destroyed the powers they represent will be made physical again in a different way. This does not happen when they are removed completely, since the power inside (the energy) cannot be reassembled again.

lionhead

Destroying the stones almost killed Thanos. Hulk would not have been able to bring back half the universe and the stones with no further impact.

We do know. As stated in the answer, Tony and Hulk specifically discuss ONLY bringing the people back. Since it's stated in the film, we can say with certainty that's all he did.

As stated in the film, he also tried to bring Natasha back who wasn't one of the half Thanos snapped away, so while unlikely, perhaps he did try more.
