Tony's bracelets that summon his suit are also an example of a subtle character trait that Tony is constantly learning from failures and improving. Every movie he is in he has 1-2 brand new and improved suits that have some ability or upgrade that is a direct result of a previous failure. It's subtle but shows how much of an engineer-at-heart he is.

The other improvement is that his suit can absorbs electricity\lightning Remember before this movie he fought whiplash which his electric whips damaged his suits

It may have looked a little odd that Captain America was the only character not eating shawarma in the scene, but the simple explanation is that Evans had a massive facial prosthetic in place in order to cover up the beard that he had grown for his role in Snowpiercer.

[@twilightchaosangel011]

Aw I always thought it was because Shawarma wasn't American lol

[@cassieberringer7427]

While, I knew that was why his jaw was covered by his hand, I always assumed by the position of his head turned away that he was just chewing really slowly before picking up the next bite. These guys are exhausted.

[@dylancole1910]

I actually didn’t know that, I assumed it was because he was too exhausted.

[@glennwelsh9784]

Yeah, the shawarma scene was a late addition to the movie. It was filmed and added to the movie right after the movie's New York premiere, before its release to general audiences. So several months had passed since principal photography had wrapped, and Evans had grown out his Snowpiercer beard in that time.

[@Adrianne519]

Also the facial prosthetic actually looked really bad because they had to rush so fast, I’ve seen some stills of it and it really did, it looked like his face was swollen. So to take extra percussion they told him to just cover his face and it worked, you can’t even tell. By the way check out Snowpiercer it is really good!

By Ragnarok he finally learned

[@FiresCollide]

Fun fact: Marvel confirmed later that Loki was also being influenced by the Mind Stone housed in his scepter. It's why he was so off the rails and looked like a madman the entire time with the dark hollows under his eyes and the pale skin and sweat. He was ill from the effects of the Mind Stone filling him with too much rage and bloodlust. That's why there were some moments he almost snapped out of it, like with Thor on top of Stark Tower. Also, you wondered what happened to Loki. As Tom Hiddleston (actor) and Joss Whedon (director) said, they came up with a backstory. When Loki fell off the Rainbow Bridge, he basically fell through the cracks in the universe. He bounced around to all the dark back alleys of the universe and learned a lot. It made him harder and tougher and more jaded.

I have to give props to Tom Hiddleston. He really brought the character of "Loki" to a real believable character, and then some. I think it takes a special actor to make a 'villian' worth something. Although. the Hulk smashing Loki was one of the best scenes in all of these. that was priceless. Also. And this was shown in a few comix allong the way. Thor's power is equal to the hulk. They are pretty much an even match.

[@kamakazines4901]

I was going to say the same thing, he was questioning himself, he probably felt like he failed, failed Loki, failed in getting the tesseract and that guilt of feeling like he was to blame, I mean Fury said they were making weapons because he came to earth and he and Coulson briefly talk about it as well.

[@britlitsch6571]

Love seeing the love for Hawkeye. Love him but Cap is my favorite character by far. Really love to see him in the fight scenes because he is the one that works the best with everyone. They all work together but with Cap they work as one unit. Like in this movie, Thor and Hulk work together to take down a leviathan, but their mostly doing their own thing. Meanwhile Cap launches Nat, uses his shield to redirect Tony's repulser beams. It's a common thing throughout the movies.

[@Adrianne519]

Yes! Him giving out his orders to everyone is one of his most underrated moments! He does it so fast and he quickly knew how to utilize everyone’s strengths! It really showed the soldier in him the most. Everyone immediately followed him, Tony knew he was their leader and he’s the one that tells him to “call it”, really shows his and their relationship growth. Even Hulk listens, he doesn’t do a thing until Cap said “smash”. It’s also the first time that someone encouraged him to smash! A great moment too from earlier was when he first met Bruce, he wasn’t scared, he didn’t judge him and to mean me treated him like a real person who didn’t care about Hulk, it’s actually funny to me that Bruce tells Cap his secret when Cap is one of the few that never asked. Just the many reasons why Cap is my favorite! Lol He really does work off the best with everyone, the only one he doesn’t really work off with his Hulk. In my opinion he works the best with Thor, they work off each other a lot and you can see the respect from them. But it makes sense that they would, they both have scene literal battle and has been part of an army, the others even though they’ve fought haven’t and aren’t use to working as a team.

[@Shawn4815162342]

Throughout the movie, when people are talking to Hulk, they either call him 'Bruce' or 'Banner'. When Cap is doling out orders to everyone, he calls him 'Hulk', which is the first time someone has acknowledged him as a separate entity from Bruce, which Hulk immediately recognizes.

[@johnlake4809]

The hammer obviously knew he was but his own self doubt clouded his mind so he couldn’t Force grab it like he usually does (this, along with many lines throughout this movie come back into play later 😉) “I’m always angry” and that Alex is the pay off to that scene at the end of The Hulk movie where Banner was meditating and suddenly opened his green eyes and smiled.

I've always said the Avengers movies (plus Captain America: Civil War, since it's basically the Avengers 2.5) are the best MCU movies because they bring together all the heroes, so they're better and more exciting than the stand alone hero movies. You got your first look at Thanos and got the fun shawarma scene. They filmed that as an after thought after the movie was done filming and had been for a long time. They had to wait for the actors to all come back to the New York prescreening from their respective other projects and ask if they would use some of their own free time after the screening that evening to re-costume up and go to a small restaurant to shoot that scene. It was a great addition.

I love AoS myself, but as it’s not currently canon, it’s a side quest at best. It actually confuses a few things that are very important later on and ties into the Inhumans too much for the current MCU. And that’s without even touching on the time travel elements. If Feige likes the character, they might be back doored in the way a certain someone was in a recent film, but it’s really on a case by case basis. It might be said that AoS Coulson is a variant of our Coulson. ‘Nuff said.

@@Saje3D way I see it, it's just a different universe in the grand calculus of the multiverse, one that as far as we knew happened the same as the MCU but then diverted at what I assume to be Coulson's "death" from there, similar things unfold but it changes along the way, hence why they introduced Inhumans but never referenced them or any of the greater AoS plot points in the films

@@Saje3D If it is a variant universe then it forks at the avengers. In my opinion It is essential viewing as it is so good but it is too long to interweave into the movies

[@jessicamagri8211]

I love this show and I’ll defend it to the end of the MCU as the best show (or one of the best) they made, and I think it’s canon because of a spoiler I cannot say. Let’s just say it exists in a different branch of reality that was created in one of the other shows…hopefully I was vague enough with that.

[@Disabledguywatching]

i love that you actually show us your goosebumps

[@alexhefnerstvmovievault]

haha thanks for watching!

[@sersastark]

Hawkeye is definitely insanely badass. and it was such a joy watching you experience this movie for the first time! this movie, having been made in 2012, still holds up with the CGI and storyline and acting. you gotta keep going!

[@veot.2869]

Alex, I love your enthusiasm!! I saw this movie at the theatres and there were several times the audience went bonkers, especially when the post credit scene appeared and showed the big guy. Folks were shocked to their core!!!! They were saying, How? Anyway, great job. I look forward to several more, man!

[@scottfield5849]

For all the amazing insanity that follows, THIS remains my favorite Marvel movie. Whatever his faults, nobody handles an ensemble like Jos Whedon. SO balanced and SO awesome!!! 💪🤨👍

[@MizuMing]

3:50 Remember at the end of Thor that Loki appeared in the reflection with the scientist? Loki has a knack for survival, he is a magic man after all. 👍

[@mikelarsen5836]

Yeah, I was surprised when this dude exclaimed "Loki? But I thought he had died?" Maybe he didn't catch the end credits. Some reactors miss them out (real movie fans don't!)

[@MizuMing]

@@mikelarsen5836 No, he saw it. He just forgot.

[@oleksandrbyelyenko435]

Was waiting for this whole day. It is 20:55 here (8:55 pm)

[@ryanhamstra49]

This was the first movie I went to see with my now wife when we were sr’s in high school. We went to see avengers endgame 6 weeks after our first kid was born. I love these movies

[@jonathanpayne4772]

The Avengers is awesome. In the grand scheme of the MCU, you haven’t seen ANYTHING yet! Don’t forget to do the Disney+ shows when you get there! Looking forward to seeing your journey continue.

[@feardabrood]

Agreed, you have finally got to the tip of the iceberg. This movie will seem just above average after a while when you see the next bunch.

[@rubenromero7964]

I have just finished Loki. I need Falcon, Wandavision and Hawkeye ASAP 😆😆😆

[@MtVesuvius]

@@rubenromero7964 wandavision was awesome, it's my favorite so far. I haven't watched a couple of the shows yet though.

[@streetracer1086]

@@feardabrood you know as much as i love the others after this and how good the avengers IW and EG are this one might be the best it started everything and is amazing when watched and just hits a bit different than the later ones

[@BradleyChristmas]

It is the best film adaptation of a comic book, according to a friend of mine.

[@meshuggah5292]

Alex saying "This is the moment I've waited for, for so long, to see them all together". Meanwhile people who've been watching since 2008 waiting till 2012 to see this "Is this some sort of joke?"

[@DillyDilly13]

Lol literally.

[@Wolfofthenightt]

I just started watching Loki and this was a great video to watch and catchup on where I was on the timeline. Amazing reaction, looking forward to watching more of your videos.

[@syn420951]

“And hulk”-Steve Rogers *hulk turns as if to say “yeah”* “Smash”-Steve *smiles as if to say ok and jumps off like a giant hyper 5 year old let loose in a candy store*

[@RichDevine1]

I’ve seen this movie so many times but when it shows them all stood together ready to fight, gives me goosebumps every time.

[@kauh9312]

The last avengers is incredible. But nothing compares seeing these guys together for the first time

[@insertnamehere2746]

Nah endgame better

[@MrZomg17]

Had many choices of what to watch...chose YOU...very entertaining

[@nathanlawson313]

Be warned: YOU. ARE. NOT. READY. FOR. THANOS! Great reaction to a perfect movie. It gets better

[@galinabrack6057]

Pay attention to Loki's eyes: there are blue almost the entire movie instead of green in all his other MCU appearances. Pay attention to his movements and physique, the are different when he arrives than later, even after the Smash. Pay attention to his divergent character style during this compared to all different MCU appearances. He usually is thoughtful and acting more covertly. This plan to take over earth is completely thoughtless and random, unlike Loki, .... Unless Loki wanted to loose. It has been officially stated by the movie makers in interviews and clearly hinted at in the entirety of the MCU that Loki was not acting in his free will, but rather under duress (meaning torture) and mind-control throughout The Avengers. His suicide attempt at the end of Thor was a real suicide attempt, not faking death.

[@jeffthompson9622]

This was awesome on first viewing in the theater and holds up well to rewatching. I would like to recommend the TV series, "Firefly," created by Joss Whedon, director of "The Avengers," and its follow-up movie, "Serenity," that he directed before this.

[@itzel1735]

If Alex hasn’t seen Firefly, I think he’d really like it.

[@dennytaylor1005]

Another great reaction. Love how excited you get watching these. As for fav characters, for me, it kinda depends on the last movie I watch haha. The movies going forward really do just keep getting better. Can't wait for your next MCU reaction.

[@ZachRenko]

This reaction reminds me why I love the MCU so damn much! I love The Avengers, it will forever stay in my Top 10! Phase 1 isn’t the bad movies either, they’re amazing intros that create a beautiful ongoing story throughout each phase of the mcu! Cannot wait for phase 2 to begin, really looking forward to Iron Man 3, The Winter Soldier, GOTG, Age of Ultron & Ant-Man! Btw SpongeBob The Movie was a slapper!!! 🔥

[@tanislater6845]

The Avengers is one of my favorite Marvel movies, it's just satisfying ass kicking from beginning to end!

[@mikelarsen5836]

Sick of Loki? Dude will come to learn that Loki is one of the very best characters in the whole MCU!

[@mikelarsen5836]

And he actually thinks Iron Man could beat Thor? 🤣😂🤣

[@Xxxero42]

Fun fact: in the Shwarma scene at the end, the reason Captain America is hiding his face, is bc he was wearing a fake jaw to cover the beard he grew for the next movie he shot after Avengers, Snowpiercer.

[@koulor315]

Amazing reaction once again!! It’s very exciting watching these, you’ll gonna love Phase 2 cause part 2 gets much darker

[@HeyRonni]

I've just discovered your channel and i have to say, the amount of sheer enjoyment i get out of watching you get excited about movies I love is unmatched. Good stuff!!!!
