There is very little help for these refugees. Refugees who can only wonder who, if anyone, will help.

#I said this before#but this moment is peak Iron Man#tony stark donning one gauntlet he was just fixing on screen#fresh back from a gala (he’s still in his gala trousers) but without the shirt and jacket; just the undershirt#aka impromptu Workshop Attire#we’re in the WORKSHOP BY THE WAy#the reporter on the TV is asking WHO WILL HELP#tony looks at his REFLECTION (!!!!!) my goD it’s so much iron man oh my god#THERES AN ARTWORK OF THE AMERICAN FLAG OVER THERE#you can see the arc reactor GLOWING THROUGH HIS UNDERSHIRT#this scene was like#‘lets shove as much Iron Man symbolism as possible here’#my god#tony stark#mcu#favorite movie#i am telling you the history of tony stark as a character Peaked right here#and i’m not saying mcu tony i am saying Tony Stark ™ the entity#the character concept#like you can have a million people writing a million versions of tony stark#but every single version that is true will have This moment in common#not EXACTLY THIS of course#but
this moment when everything he’s built so far in terms of 1) iron man
armor 2) public and personal self 3) guilt and self-loathing#4) sense of responsibility 5) LITERAL AND METAPHORICAL HEART ISSUES#all come together and they all built up to this decision#‘they can only wonder who; if anyone; will help?’ – FOCUS IN ON TONY’S REFLECTION#which he immediately shatters not once not twice but three times#before fully suiting up for the first time#this is peak iron man i’m telling you#this is Peak iron man (via @knightinironarmor)

robert downey junior doesn’t say a word in this scene. he doesn’t say a word and yet this is the purest crystallisation of tony stark as a character. not a word, and the thing at the core of tony stark is laid completely bare and obvious, that thick seam of self loathing with a centre of pure iron. you can cut deep into tony stark, you can metaphorically slice him to ribbons, you can reduce him to nothing but a bleeding mass and it’s so easy because try as he might to guard it his heart is still so vulnerable. but right before you kill him, right before you deliver that one last emotional death blow, your sword hits iron

#i never noticed the tear

i just realised how similar the colouring of  this scene was to this:

two moments where tony stark gave up, one because he was saving the world, one because he couldn’t save it. tony stark only stops fighting when he believes there is no more fighting to be done, and while i believe in 4vengers we’ll see him rediscover the will to fight, right there on titan he doesn’t have anything left to give, just like he gave absolutely everything when he went through the wormhole

“when i drift off, i will dream about you. it’s always you” is honestly SO romance and i can’t wait to see it on a million gifsets of ships from other fandoms because it really is that instantly iconic and everyone wants a piece of that poetry

me rn watching the trailer with tony leaving a goodbye message for pepper, about 1 day away from death: 

vs me next year watching that very same scene but then pepper as rescue, carol and valkyrie all come at once to save them:

just think…when the actual movie comes out we’re gonna see that scene of tony saying goodbye to pepper without cuts to other scenes, just 100% pure rdj acting his lil socks off. we won’t just hear his voice break on “that’ll be it” we’ll see his face as he says it too

tony stark…really is…odysseus…travels far from home to fight a war he doesn’t want to fight…loses his entire team…stranded and loses hope…just wants to see his wife…super smart…i love him…a goddess (carol or pepper) will help him get home…
