no seriously he has the best round pert squeezable ass, why are there not more ass shots, MCU?

every time something goes wrong, the next iteration of his suit makes sure it can’t happen again

JARVIS and the bots

#MCU Women: Suit Up.

people often forget that tony stark is actually very strong underneath all the metal casing of that iron man suit. they think that because he's protected and he's got an arsenal of weaponry in his armor, he's never trained his physical body to do the work for him.

they forget that the iron man suit weighs hundreds of pounds. that it takes a considerable amount of effort to maneuver the suit, even with hydraulics installed to make movement easier. that essentially tony is doing a weights workout every time he's in it. even after upgrading to nanotechnology, which streamlines the suit and makes it more lightweight, it still takes someone with incredible levels of agility, endurance, and strength to wear the armor and continuously fight in it for hours on end.

that's not even considering the amount of physical labor tony regularly does when he's outside of the suit. he's dragged a battery-dead mark 42 from the outskirts of a remote town to a ratty old couch in an empty garage with nothing to support him except a sturdy piece of thick coiled wire. even at his lowest point, when his body was failing him, he pieced together massive chunks of cement and metal into a particle accelerator in his lab with his own bare hands.

people take one look at tony when he's standing with his teammates and can't look past the fact that he's shorter and more breakable than a demigod and supersoldier. they compare him to the others and all they remember is he's not a specially trained spy and assassin. they remind themselves he's just a regular human being, with no green monster lurker beneath the surface.

instead they think, oh tony stark can be easily taken down. his brain is his one defining feature, with his ass that won't quit coming in second place. but they don't consider that the aforementioned ass didn't just appear out of nowhere one day. tony goes to the gym and works hard on those glutes, quads, hamstrings and calves. he putters around in his workshop everyday, lifting weights in the form of pieces of steel and titanium, to tone and build the muscles in his arms.

so when a villain tells him take only what you can carry, they don't know what they're in for. he'll drop everything else to carry his whole world back home.

“You take the little guy, I’ll take the big guy”

Sebastian Stan didn’t even know that Bucky Barnes was one of the characters who was snapped away. He was just told to “fall,” and he had to ask both of the Russo brothers before either of them gave him an answer.

Brie Larson: “I had no idea what I was shooting, what the movie was. I didn’t know if anybody else was in a scene with me. I didn’t know anything. And it’s not until you show up that you get your pages for the day. But you only get your part. So it was like a scene that was completely black redacted, and then just my one line.” (x)

"RDJ was probably the only one to actually read the entire script," Joe Russo told Rotten Tomatoes, adding: "I think Benedict [Cumberbatch] got the script that included his scenes only. Maybe [Chris] Evans might have read the script."

“Tom Holland gets his lines and that’s it," Joe Russo revealed at an Endgame event. "He doesn’t even know who he’s acting opposite of. We’ll just, we use like very vague terms to describe to him what is happening in the scene, because he has a very difficult time keeping his mouth shut.” (x)

I will spare you the gritty details, but just about everything works worse than it did beforehand. Lungs aren’t as effective, heart is worse at it’s job. I’ve got way less energy and sleep a lot more, which let’s be honest is probably just catching me up. It’s been rough to get used to, especially with a kid, but I’m in no position to complain.
