The Best Scene in ‘Avengers: Endgame’

Thanks to Avengers Endgame: Encore, Avengers: Endgame is back in theaters. And that has the ScreenCrush team reassessing this monstrouly successful film. What made it so  popular? You can argue it had to do with its clever time travel story, or the satisfying action climax, or all of the fun Marvel cameos. But Avengers: Endgame either succeeds or fails on the basis of one single scene. Just one. Without it, the movie doesn’t work.

In our latest Marvel video, we’ll tell you what that scene is and why it is so important to the success of Avengers Endgame: Encore. We’ll also explore Tony Stark’s character arc from selfish to selfless, and from the original Iron Man to Avengers: Endgame, where he makes the ultimate sacrifice in order to stop Thanos. Plus: How will these events color the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, where Robert Downey Jr. returns to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Doctor Doom?
