The Russo Brothers Have Answers Brad: Why the ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Final Scene Doesn’t Break the MCU, According to the Russo Brothers Chris: Joe Russo Explains Some of the Confusing ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Paradoxes Brad: ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Easter Egg Could Hint at a New Superhero Coming to the MCU Ben: The Final Battle of ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Puts ‘Infinity War’ to Shame – But Not Because It’s Bigger Brad: How the ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Directors Assembled the Most Star-Filled Shot in Marvel History Chris: ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Suggests the MCU Has a Problem With Captain Marvel’s Power Brad: Robert Downey Jr.’s Finest Moment in ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Was a Last Minute Addition Ben (og HT): The Russo Brothers Explain Why ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Doesn’t Have an End-Credits Scene In The Mailbag: Scott from Alameda, CA writes in “Hey Peter- So I need to disagree with your and the staff's take that it was a mistake for the screenwriters to kill off Black Widow instead of Hawkeye. To defend this case, I unfortunately need to pull out the parent card. This movie is very much about parenthood and fatherhood specifically. It feels as if this idea of raising the next generation was quite in the forefront of the screenwriter's minds. To start the movie with Hawkeye losing his family and then to end it by implying that his family came back only to find their father dead would be heartbreaking and devastating. It would be downright cruel. Having Tony die leaving Morgan fatherless brought me to absolute tears. But in that case, the sacrifice matched the character arc. Black Widow (while I agree a better character) needed to sacrifice herself in order to give Clint his family back and allow him the chance to be a father. As a parent myself, I complete agree with Natasha's decision and understand the sacrifice made in order to allow someone (Clint) to have more time with their children. Keep up the amazing work even if I disagree with your take in this case.” Other Articles Mentioned: Siddhant: Road to Endgame: ‘Avengers: Endgame’ is a Bold New Beginning (and Look Back) for the Marvel Cinematic Universe Interview With A Local Man Returning After Thanos’ Snap All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
