It was organic Sam Wilson as Cap makes sense too. I can support that. Bucky is there too. And that dealt with race. It paralleled our own history with race and racism. They DID test shit on black service-members. And only a few generations later, we had a black president. And I supported him. Best president of my life time by far. But this.... i do not like this. America is over 80% caucasian (about 60% non-hispanic white). It's about 13% black. Quit trying to shoehorn elements that don't make sense.

There have been a lot of people pointing out his improvements, but another thing is that in 2012 when Loki threw him off the building, the mark 7 suit flew with him and was installed on him but it had to wait fully assembled, he was able to start the thrusters and almost collided with people on the ground.

[@lukefox718]

Something I really like is how half the upgrades are Mk50 using nanotech because it's not only the ultiment optimisation of the suit, but it's also used to it's fully capacity as well. Every else in the MCU post endgame treats it like a gimmick for their mask, but Stark uses the tech to not only solve every flaw in his previous suits, but also constantly reconfigure the nanites in his suit to push every attack he makes against thanos to it's full capacity in real time. His kicks are given triple the weight, his punches four times the force. His rockets have nearly unlimited capacity, and even with nanites being inherently weaker than outright steel, it gives him several options for use once they begin to be depleted, which thanos uses to stab him being the genius he also is. Even his shield is essentially infinite being Wakandan and holographic. On top of the layered visuals, THIS is how you do nanotech: it both optimises and removes flaws from previous technology, and improves upon all of it's uses. It's a third class option besides typical steel being stronger but more inconvienient and hybrids being a mix of real material and nanotech.

[@stretchmcgee]

Another thing to consider is that while Tony is impressive, there would likely be no way to create entirely new devices with the nanotech on the fly, it would almost certainly be limited only to things Tony has already designed and made fully functional, meaning that every single thing he created with the nanites was a device he designed, prototyped, tested, and then uploaded it to the nanite controller so that he could use it in the field. Just look at the sheer number of different devices he pulls out throughout those movies and it's clear he was all about preparation with that suit.

[@matthewbush3360]

One thing a lot of people miss is that during Age of Ultron, the Hulkbuster couldnt slow down the Hulk. So when he built the nano suit, he added more power and more blasters. When his arc reactor was taken out of his chest in the first film, he started adding individual ones to each bit of tech. When he realized that having each piece of the suit fly to him was too unreliable, he made the nano suit so its always with him. During the attack on his mansion, he couldnt aim the rocket in his suit. So he made them auto targeting in the nano suit. And finally, in the first movie, when hes fixing up his hand repulsor, he accidently fires it and realizes it can also be a weapon not just flight stabilizers. Everyone tends to view him as just the guy with money and tech, but hes really the epitomy of always learning from his mistakes. He always grows from his failures. Its why hes one of my favorites

And this was possibly his first use of melee weapons on an Iron Man suit. It was cool how in Civil War, that Fitbit that gave him an Iron Glove was kinda like a prototype for Nanotech.

In my opinion, one of the best ways that Tony learned from his mistakes was when he temporarily took Peter's suit in Homecoming.

Tony saw alot of himself in Peter, so when Peter told him that he was nothing without the suit, he automatically refused to let the Spider-Man mantle lead Peter down the same devastating paths that he went through.

One thing Tony learned, that goes without question, is that his suit up time needed improvement. The Mark 3 suit took a while to get in and out of. And that was improved on with the proceeding suits. Mark 5 was the suitcase suit that took a quick minute to put on. Then the Mark 7 had a rapid deployment even in mid-air. Mark 42 was an attempt for armor pieces to act independently, but honestly that suit was comedically unreliable. Yet Tony improved on the concept. Eventually, Tony got further development in nanotechnology _with help from Wakanda's info exchange_ that could suit up faster than the Mark 5 without having to carry a large object containing the suit.

[@AzureKyle]

He didn't get Nanotech from Wakanda, he came up with it himself. It was Captain America that went to Wakanda after Civil War with Bucky, Tony didn't go to Wakanda until presumably Endgame, after Thanos was killed and during that 5 year timeskip.

[@User-VerseS]

@@AzureKyle To clarify, I didn't mean that Wakanda gave Tony the technology directly; like how they gave Bucky a new arm or Sam his Cap suit. I was referring to Marvel's The Wakanda Files book, which mentioned that there was an information trade between Wakanda and Stark Industries. Tony even mentioned receiving the tech from "a friend." From there, Tony created his Mark L suit.

a wise character once said, "there's a benefit to losing, you get to learn from your mistakes". thats what I love about tony in the mcu, even when he does win a fight, he still loses because of something that gave him a major disadvantage in the battle like with the mark 5(suitcase armor), while he did win, the suit's lack of weapons and its thin plating did give it much more easy portability, but came at the cause of little protection and he was unable to easily use the armor's own weapons

Great video but you missed the best one! In Infinity War his big mistake was not getting the gauntlet off Thanos fast enough. In Endgame at the very end he removes just the stones, not the whole gauntlet, showing he learnt from this mistake! Fun fact in that moment he “shook” just the stones free instead of “pulling” the whole gauntlet, he was taking the last words of advice his father ever gave him, earlier in the movie, to heart “Shake that don’t pull it” Just another reason that final scene with Tony and Thanos is masterful!

[@iamgroot89p13]

Never made the connection on his dad's line. Thank you for pointing it out!

I assumed he was able to pull the stones directly because his suit's nanotech interacted with the nanotech gauntlet whereas he couldn't do that with the gauntlet the dwarves made.

2:57 After all these years, I just realized a very important detail about this scene. The reason why he was so astonished in this scene was that he realized that not only is there something else out there in space, but it is much bigger than anything he could possibly have, and they're probably going to come after everyone on Earth for exploding what was basically a recon ship. He knows aliens exist, but here he actually saw what a sliver of their army looks like!!!

[@jayguero2123]

Yeah, I mean, it’s kinda obvious. That’s literally his whole drive in Iron Man 3 and Avengers 2. His Wanda hallucination in AoU was him being in the opposite side of the wormhole with the Avengers dead and the aliens come through to earth. His anxiety and PTSD come from not knowing what to expect because what he saw was only a teaser. I mean, how could anyone have missed this? Couldn’t be more obvious.

[@meateaw]

it is incredibly stupid of him not to have realised this before. Any species capable of travelling interstellar distances is going to have resources at their disposal that absolutely trivialise anything any one planet could have. Think about it, if you had access to travel offworld to another star system you could mine resources in asteroid belts around millions of different stars, your production base would be off the charts. Then you come across a species that hasn't even left their planet? Hilariously outmatched. It is a no brainer. If aliens exist and they can travel interstellar distances, our single planet production base == toast. The aliens can just throw literal fucking rocks at us they don't even need to build anything and we'd be toast. Tony Stark should be smart enough to know this right from the beginning. It doesn't take a genius (or being "shown" something) to deduce this.

I like how the nano armor was essentially his masterpiece bc it's comprised of everything he's ever learned. It has the fastest suit up time. It's always with him in a compact form that can be deployed at any time. Its extremely resilient bc no matter how much it gets damaged, it will still work. Example being when a large of chunk of nanites were lost during his fight with Thanos he was able to move what was left to where he needed them to be. It's the fastest reactive armor he's got. It comes with a variety of close combat weapons after his fight with Steve and Bucky. And an extra large rocket to make him go faster and go into space easier. It can make it's own weapons such as missiles and restraints. Self replication may be a function of it too. It's just as powerful as the hulk buster armor but even faster. It even comes with its own built in medical kit in case he gets heavily injured. It's got more freedom of movement so Tony can maneuver easier. The list goes on. The suit was his masterpiece. And unfortunately the last one he ever made. I wonder whatever happened to it after he died.

400% capacity sounds impossible. He clearly overengineered and never bothered to test the limits, thus the surprise that it withstood 4 intended capacity.

You can also add that he wasn´t fast enough to save Rhodey from his falling, so he add more power in his velocity with nanotech as we can see when he reach the spaceship. Also, every armor was faster to put in and transportate. Tony is just incredible.

[@ethrsag735]

Suit-up machine --> Suitcase --> calling the suit and have it fly to him in individual pieces ---> Nanotech contained in the equivalent of a heartbeat tracker.

[@glowhoo9226]

I also like that despite how fast the suitcase armor is put on, it’s offset by being weaker than his other armors. Having to be able to fold in on itself means he has to sacrifice some of the armor to give it room to collapse.

[@superspies32]

Its not just faster, he tried to make Mark 43 convenient for him. But instead its became so dangerous (the crotch parts can cause serious damages and extreme painful, the head parts can cause severe head injuries) and less reliable (it required a lot of maintainances and still in constant broken while fighting, the only reliable was embed to villain and self-destruct). So in Civil War he changed the way of thinking, instead of multiple parts with jetpacks, he only bring in basic parts of the arm on his clock and that arm can be assembled in mere second, multiple copies of the suit and its separated parts are stored in his vehicle and can be accessed in few seconds, the doctrined survived until be replaced by nanotech which archieved his goal at first.

Also, there is another one having to do with Rhodey falling. If Tony would have been a little faster he would have been able to reach Rhodey in time before he hit the ground. Two adjustments were made as a result of this. The first one is the parachute in the Spiderman suite like you said. The 2nd one is the boost he added to his suite to make him faster. You see it in the scene you shared when Tony is going into space in the nanotech suite and says, "Friday, give me a boost."

Another one was the addition of multiple smaller backup arc reactors on all suits after the mark 46 including the iron spider suit and subsequent war machine armours. It proved extremely useful in the event the main chest reactor is destroyed or damaged. It was another way of ensuring that the suit could continue to basic function in a fight or at least slow a fall in the case of Rhodey's incident in civil war.

I was just thinking about that! I think the first ones must have appeared in Iron Man 3, like Mark 42, who is capable of dividing itself, and also pepper was able to shoot Killian using an arm from the Mark 8, but it's not clear as in Civil War, when he uses a bracelet powered by a mini reactor when he tried to stun Bucky, and the mini reactors are very visible in the Mark 46 armor and subsequent.
