Well, I can't say nothing that hasn't been already told, Tony's new amazing armor, carrying Steve's phone all this time, Tony's intense moments with Strange and Quill (those were my favorites), Tony always looking out for Peter, fighting Thanos with everything he got, a blast after blast and one wondering how things would end. And the rest of the cast were awesome too.

But there are two things that got me thinking. One was that Tony never got the chance to fight at the side of the original team, like at all (Bruce couldn't even transform back then, but at lest there was an small Bruce and Tony warm moment), what leads me to think that in Avengers 4 all the team will get back together.

Two, Thanos KNEW WHO TONY WAS. Like, the moment Thanos said "Stark" it felt like a punch in the face to me (and probably to Tony too), how did Thanos knew? Was it because of the stones or he send spies to earth? There is something fishy about that.

Another small detail is Red Skull cameo, I always wondered what the hell happened to him, now we know.

Loki saying "We got a Hulk" was pure gold.

And finally, despite how awesome and breathtaking the movie was, it practically killed all the new ships that involved Tony: no StarkQuill, IronStrange, Stucky and IronPanther, there will only be Stony from the time being.

My theory is that they get their hands on at least the Time Stone somehow and reverse things to the point that they are all together and fight together. We saw the "Devided we fall" part, I think the second part is "Together we stand".

As for Thanos knowing Tony, didn't he say something along the lines that he, too, is cursed with knowing? Maybe this is a hint that Tony has something that Thanos has too, something that lets him wield the stones? Because it felt that Strange traded the stone for Tony because in the one outcome they won in, Tony was there. Tony was needed. Maybe because Tony is the only one who can wield all stones without being consumed by it as well?

I think Tony is the key to reversing everything, otherwise Strange wouldn't have spared him.

My guess is that they somehow get the gauntlet and either Tony or Steve are able to wear it and make reverse everything.

The only thing is, for the soul stone, will they need to sacrifice someone in order to wield it? And if so, who is going to die? And maybe stay dead?
