Tony Stark: Oh, Mr. Rogers, I almost forgot. This film did nothing for your memes.
Steve Rogers: No one asked you to watch, Tony.
Tony Stark: They're ridiculous!

open/close all folders
General
- End Me Explanation Taking out a few letters from the word "Endgame" nets you this phrase, which summed up how many fans felt when the trailer was released.
- *fistbump* Explanation In a fake trailer, there was a description of a shot of Rocket and Nebula fistbumping each other. This is often seen by the community to be really Narmy, and clashing with the tone of Infinity War and Endgame. People reference the fistbump whenever the rematch is referenced, as a way to mock how hilariously off-mark some fan theories/"leaks" are.
- "Avenge the Fallen." Explanation The tagline of Avengers: Endgame, associated with posters featuring the survivors and victims of Thanos's Snap. People have made edits of these posters, featuring dead characters from other series with the tagline. This page's image is but one example.
- #DontSpoilTheEndgame Explanation A hashtag warning fans not to spoil Avengers Endgame with memes and such, since fans made dust memes of Infinity War roughly a day after it was released, spoiling the events of the movie.
- Don't watch Endgame, it contains Endgame spoilers Explanation Taking the above warning to its ultimate conclusion
- Batman dies in Endgame.Explanation Poking fun at the taboos of posting spoilers, especially over who dies, a fake spoiler that was spammed all over the place was to say Batman from DC Comics died in Endgame. Doubly funny in that there is a Batman story titled Endgame where he does in fact die.
- The rat was the real MVP of Endgame. Explanation The reason that Ant-Man was able to get home, and thereby be the Spanner in the Works for Thanos's grand plan, was because a random rat stepped on a button to let Ant-Man out of the Quantum Realm. Some jokingly call him the true hero of the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. It was taken even a step further for some who started guessing various identities for it like Master Splinter or Mickey Mouse.
- Avengers: Endgame Spoilers without context. Explanation Like with its predecessor, the internet phenomenon went viral once again with images related to plot events (among others, a Möbius strip, the Dude, Hawkeye and Black Widow joining Suicide Squad, Spider-Man vs Spider-Man, Build-a-Bear Workshop, stairs, a rat, paper football, tacos, a red glove, back end of an "american bikini", and Fortnite)
- "Is that everyone?" "What, you wanted more?"Explanation A popular Answer Cut by fans to the Avengers Assemble moment when Doctor Strange asked Wong if that's everyone while the latter is exasperated that he wanted more during the climax of the film...while showing all the various Marvel heroes that couldn't make it to the MCU sitting at home wondering if they were missing anything due to lack of communication lines to the Avengers and Guardians. Netflix Avengers, S.H.I.E.L.D, Defenders, Inhumans, X-Men, Fantastic Four, Ghost Rider, Deadpool, Daredevil and other Marvel TV series that were not part of the MCU are all popular examples. After the announcement for the re-release, Strange representing fans asking "Is that everything?" while Wong representing Kevin Feige responding, "What? You wanted more?"
- As was the case in Infinity War, "Endgame as Vines" videos started
popping up almost immediately. - "WE'RE THE AVENGERS OPEN UP!"Explanation The Avengers way of breaking into Thanos' farm, with some of its members bursting through his farm's roof, instantly drew connections to a video exaggerating how the FBI breaks into houses, introducing their presence by shouting "FBI OPEN UP!".
- "You murdered trillions!"Explanation What Bruce yells at Thanos when he explains that the stones were only a source of temptation. It saw some use as a meme template, with purposes such as satirizing particularly large and powerful AOE attacks/incredibly skilled players in FPS games, or people who equate activities such as eating meat with murder.
- "I'm dead."Explanation When Chadwick Boseman was asked by a reporter about what to expect going into Endgame, he refused to say anything other than this line. Fans have taken it into account as to how they felt after seeing Infinity War, and other related events in the MCU. After Boseman's passing, however...
- "Doctor Strange watched Endgame during Infinity War. Thanos watched Infinity War during Endgame."Explanation The observation that Doctor Strange technically "watched" Endgame while he was looking through 14 million possible futures during Infinity War was followed up with the joke that Thanos technically "watched" Infinity War while going through Nebula's memories.
- Spot the hidden superheroes from the future.Explanation Comments saying that the various heroes from the future are offscreen or invisible in the original scenes the whole time spread like wildfire after the movie. For example, the intro for Guardians of the Galaxy were dominated by comments of War Machine and Nebula's talk about Peter Quill being an idiot.
- Lt. Col. James Rhodes: Baby Killer.Explanation Rhodey briefly suggests killing Thanos as a baby while operating by Back to the Future time-travel rules. Due to the hilariously dark nature of the joke, the fans have naturally run with it.
- "Activate Instant Kill" explanation Spider-Man finally activating Instant Kill Mode... a screenshot which fans quickly adopted to express their anger.
- "...ucker!" Explanation Since Spider-Man: Far From Home's description of the snapped's resurrection is them being Un-Paused, fans believe this is Nick Fury's first word after he's resurrected. (His last line in Infinity War was "Motherf...")
- "Hey, Peter Parker. Got something for me? Explanation Captain Marvel's brief exchange with Spider-Man during the final battle sounded uncomfortably flirty to many fans out of context. As a result, fans quickly jumped on the bandwagon with fanart and fanfics popping up depicting Carol coming onto Peter.
- Look closely during the march of unified forces of heroes towards Thanos's forces and you will see that Spider-Man seemingly web-swings from nothing. This led to the jokes/theories that he swings from one of these objects off-screen: Giant-Man (who was nearby in the scene) extending his arm, Wakandans/Ravagers ship, Valkyrie's flying horse, or even Stan Lee extending his arm from heaven.
- The other 14,000,604 Explanation In Infinity War, Doctor Strange claimed to have seen 14,000,605 possible outcomes of the Avengers' battle with Thanos, all but one of which ended in the heroes' defeat. After the release of Endgame, it became popular to come up with alternate endings, usually involving Thanos defeating the Avengers in a humorous way.
- The sun shining on Thor and Loki again. explanation While this line, "I assure you brother, the sun will shine on us again," originates from Infinity War, this meme is mostly applied to Endgame in the form of fans desperately seeking any semblance of the sun shining so Thor and Loki can have a happy ending like the end of Ragnarok promised.
- "The film will start, and then it will end." Explanation When being interviewed with Paul Rudd for this movie, Jeremy Renner repeatedly kept saying variations of this line to avoid spoiling any plot details ala Mark Ruffalo or Tom Holland.
- Fans noticed that the Red Skull just seems to disappear into the background while Hawkeye and Black Widow fight for the right of Heroic Sacrifice (or logically, anybody who shows up for the Soul Stone). This led to fans wondering if the Skull is just standing off to the side, quietly and awkwardly watching or doing a Pass the Popcorn since this is the only source of entertainment he's had in decades.
- "Open a portal on his LEFT." Explanation Sam's Call-Back has led to fans having fun imagining him insisting to Doctor Strange that he open the first portal in a way that makes it possible for him to get his revenge on Steve for the Running Gag of The Winter Soldier.
- On that note, "On your left." Explanation Adopting the very first line of dialogue from Captain America: The Winter Soldier, this is what fans would think the Avengers would have said to each movie they passed by on their way to the top of the box office list.
- "What's Mantis going to do?" "Kick names, take ass." Explanation A common response to seeing non-Action Girl Mantis at the forefront of the heroes charging at Thanos's forces.
- The entire portal scene has since been used to represent various groups and factions banding together for a common goal, i.e. all of social media (including porn sites) assembling to storm Area 51. Most recently, the scene has been used to represent everyone who's against Sony taking back Spider-Man from the MCU after a financial deal between them and Marvel Studios went south.
- Peter Parker's moms. Explanation The female heroes of the MCU assemble to help Captain Marvel get the Infinity Gauntlet to Ant-Man's van. While that's the true context of the scene, fans much prefer to think that all of these ladies are in full Mama Bear mode after Peter Parker got caught in Thanos's barrage of aerial fire and want vengeance for the boy all of them had simultaneously adopted.
- Giorno's theme.Explanation Crossing over with a meme from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Vento Aureo, the scene from Endgame where Thanos realizes that Iron Man has the Infinity Stones has been edited many times to play the piano segment from "Il Vento D'oro", referencing how Giorno's theme plays whenever he turns the table on a villain he's up against. For bonus points, the Japanese dub in fact involves Yūichi Nakamura (i.e. Bruno Bucciarati) playing Captain America.
- "You're weak." "I'm you." Explanation 2014!Nebula mocks 2023!Nebula. Used to express I Hate Past Me or Self-Deprecation.
- Avengers Assemble but at the pool. Explanation A few guys at a swimming pool decided to have some fun after seeing Endgame and did their own Avengers Assemble by reversing footage of them jumping backwards into the pool after striking a pose. Since then, others have joined in on the fun with their own reversed videos.
- Taking various famous film series and giving them the "Main on End" credits treatment is very popular among fans who wanted to give other film franchises they also liked the similar treatment. It's noted that due to accidental plot parallels and timing, the series that was given this treatment the most is My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic of all things, judging from the many examples on the internet, though Star Wars, Harry Potter, and the Arrowverse also have plenty of videos with this treatment as well due to either already having a Grand Finale or an Endgame-level event.
- Literally everyone Explanation Taking Serial Escalation to its logical conclusion by adding more and more and more characters, be it other heroes joining the Avengers to the Avengers Assemble scene or other villains being part of Thanos' army during the Darkest Hour, even characters who aren't even from the MCU or superheroes.
- "... will defeat Thanos in Avengers: Endgame". Explanation Pre-release running joke listing various Memetic Badasses unrelated to the MCU as defeating Thanos, with Big Chungus, Shaggy, Yoda, Chuck Norris, and Gaston among many examples.
- "You're about... five years too early." Explanation The Ancient One's response to the time-travelling Hulk coming for Doctor Strange; used with a varying number of years as a response to Hilarious in Hindsight (or Harsher in Hindsight), for instance posts about wearing plague doctor masks from 2015 - five years before the coronavirus.
- The real reason Cap went back Explanation This phrase and several variations of it are frequently commented in particularly attractive pictures of Peggy Carter's actress Hayley Atwell.
- "Karen, is there a window open in here?" Explanation An edit where Matt Murdock, who is blind, has this reaction to one of Doctor Strange's portals to the final battle to explain why he didn't join the fight.
Thanos
Despite having less screentime and focus than the previous movie, Thanos is just as quotable as before and just about every sentence he speaks have been used as captions:
- The #Thanus theory. Explanation The infamous crack-theory that Thanos would be defeated by Ant-Man crawling inside his ass and expanding. This meme ended up becoming so popular that several actors - including Paul Rudd (Scott Lang) AND Josh Brolin (Thanos), the actors behind the characters in question - have made references to it. Even the Russo Brothers (lead directors) changed their Instagram profile picture to reference it. Their real answer? Thanos's insides would be too strong for an expanding Ant-Man to move. Additionally, many fans have joked about Doctor Strange's Brain Bleach reaction to one of the possible futures if Scott Lang actually tried to do this.
- Thanos is Shrek.Explanation Jokes about the cloth on Thanos's shirt resembling Shrek's became common after the first teaser. After the movie came out, some fans even pointed out how the scene of him harvesting his crops and cooking breakfast resembled the opening sequence◊ from the first Shrek movie.
- I am inevitable! Explanation Thanos' recurring claim ends up being used for this to determine something that will happen (Such as Endgame's box office gross doing over $1B in its opening week, or managing to reach $2 Billion in the box office, or Endgame overtaking Titanic in box office, or Endgame finally overtaking Avatar after a nail-biting run), all of which actually happened.
- And I... am... Iron Man Explanation Stark's Pre-Mortem One-Liner combined with the above made a good one-up bait
- I am Groot! Explanation Combine them with the tree and all three of them have taken off running. Variations abound!
- I don't even know who you are. Explanation 2014 Thanos's Fish out of Temporal Water moment while confronting Wanda (who still remembers 2018 Thanos killing Vision) has spawned a new type of memes mocking the Unknown Rival trope as well, as well as comparing Paper-Thin Disguise.
- You will.Explanation Wanda's counter remark before unloading on 2014 Thanos with everything she's got, playing further into the Unknown Rival trope.
- Thanos copterExplanation Thanks to Infinity War and Endgame elevating Thanos back into mainstream popularity. Fans dug up and found a rather hilarious panel of Thanos using a helicopter in Spidey Super Stories #39, a 1979 comic. Needless to say when Thanos' double-bladed sword was revealed, fans were more than happy to compare it to helicopter blades. Finally the coveted Thanos Copter was shown in Loki (2021).
- He was just eating breakfast! Explanation Right before the Avengers assault Thanos' farm, he's seen making soup. This has lead to many memes, particularly from the "Thanos did nothing wrong" group, depicting Thanos as an innocent bystander who was wrongfully assaulted.
- Thanos has no blood. Explanation The mostly Bloodless Carnage of Thanos being beheaded was joked about by fans, with some disappointed at the small amount of Alien Blood Ludicrous Gibs. Many fans joked that his blood should have also been purple.
- "I used the stones to destroy the stones." Explanation Thanos explains how all of the Infinity Stones are gone when the Avengers confront him. Used as a reaction when something is turned against itself.
- "Gone. Reduced to atoms." Explanation In the same scene, saying where the Infinity Stones have gone. Became a response to when something inexplicably disappears.
- "Impossible." Explanation Self-explanatory but the context is that this meme originally started off as an ironic example that any quote from Thanos no matter how basic or unimportant could be turned memetic, only to balloon and prove its own point.
- "You could not live with your own failure. And where did that bring you? Back to me." Explanation Originally spoken by 2014 Thanos to Thor, Captain America and Iron Man regarding their failure to move on and confront Thanos again, it has been a common reaction to reposts as well as retrying an earlier attempt, more commonly Thanos saying it to Feige and Co when they were unable to beat Avatar in their first try, and rereleased it
- "RAIN FIRE!" "But sire, our troops!" "JUST DO IT!"Explanation With Wanda Maximoff levitating Thanos into the air and tearing him apart from the inside out, he bellows a command to unload Sanctuary II's artillery on the battlefield in hopes that something will hit Wanda, to Corvus Glaive's objection. Thanos's response to Corvus's questioning is often replaced with the likes of Shia LaBeouf, Emperor Palpatine, or Nike, while Corvus's line is often used in the context of overusing memes or masturbation.
- "I will shred this universe down to its last atom." Explanation Thanos' new plan after realizing his 'wipe out half of life so that the other half thrives' plan boils down to Insane Troll Logic. Used as a common reaction to cringe articles as well as instances where humans make some really stupid moves, or in more serious examples, where Humans Are the Real Monsters.
- Hippopothanos.Explanation A meme with Thanos's head photoshopped onto a hippo. Some have joked that the "Into the Spider-Verse" universe of Spider-Ham, where all superheroes are Funny Animals, will have Hippopothanos as a main villain.
- “Thanos travelled between universes to take Sentinel Prime’s sword.”Explanation A joke by members of the Transformers fandom noting the similarities between Thanos’s double bladed sword and Sentinel Prime’s own in Transformers: Dark of the Moon
- "Perhaps I treated you too harshly." Explanation Thanos's final words towards Nebula when she tells the other Avengers he isn't lying about the Stones. It's since become a response when something that was disliked is viewed more favorably in retrospect than before or gets overshadowed by something much worse.
- What was he cooking?Explanation A YouTube thumbnail◊ for a video trying to figure out what Thanos was cooking before his death. The esoteric nature of the question being posed made the thumbnail a popular subject for parodies, often jokingly appending the question to other works. Both the original thumbnail and derivatives of it also became popular reaction images for when someone hypes something up (or posts something rather confusing). The meme eventually got so prominent that "cooking" itself became a slang term for online content creation.
Captain America
- America's ass.Explanation A meme stemming from when Tony points out Cap's rear being under-emphasized by his 2012 uniform. The nickname, however, came from Scott Lang / Ant-Man.
- God of America Explanation Cap is proven worthy of wielding Mjölnir (which Thor brought forward from the past), holding it in the final battle against Thanos, and since Thor is the "God of Thunder", it just picked up from there.
- This set photo◊ of Captain America helping to clean the mess in the aftermath of The Avengers has made rounds around the internet.
- "Some people X... but not us. Not us..." Explanation In the "Big Game" TV spot for Avengers: Endgame, Captain America says this short line, which fans have gleefully eaten up.
- Jumping off of that: "Some people move on, bananas."Explanation Intentionally mishearing Steve's line as such.
- Replacing 2012 Cap with some of Chris Evans' other roles when 2023 Cap encounters him.
- "You gotta be shitting me."Explanation 2023 Cap's reaction when being confronted by 2012 Cap. The scene has also being used to represent finding yourself at fault.
- Joking that Steve using profanity in the movie is a sign of character growth after his "Language!" outburst in Age of Ultron.
- "Welcome, Steven. Son of... a bitch! You're still alive?!" explanation Fans noted that to return the Soul Stone, Cap would have to travel to Vormir and reunite with the Red Skull. This joke reaction is a popular one.
- "That's my secret, Thor. I'm always worthy." Explanation In The Avengers, Bruce tells Cap, "That's my secret, Cap. I'm always angry." in regards to how he apparently controls his transformation into Hulk. In Age of Ultron, Cap was seemingly unable to wield Mjölnir, causing fans to theorize that he was just pretending because he's too humble and didn't want to upstage Thor. As of this movie, and as per the Word of God, the fan theory is proven correct.
- Time-travelling Steve Explanation A caption of Cap's face expressing a reaction, pointing out historical events that did not age well, often during conversations with his wife Peggy Carter. For instance, Cap smirking when Peggy asks him why he invested their life savings in a no-name company called "Microsoft" or asking why he is crying when asking if he wants to meet Howard's newborn son.
- "No, I don't think I will." Explanation This is old Steve's response when Sam tries to ask him about his marriage but it gets used in other contexts both as pop culture references or to every day events. Like someone trying to talk George Lucas out of creating Jar-Jar Binks for the former or someone in real life asking you for your Reddit handle. It can also be used in a similar manner to the Steve time traveling meme like Steve waking up the morning of the JFK assassination or 9/11 and choosing not to stop it or Hitler being told to not invade Poland. It's also used as a reference to this movie, like with Clint's reaction when his wife and kids ask him to tell them what he did in the five years they were gone, or even Thanos being asked to reconsider his plan to something more sustainable and beneficial.
- "You new here?" "Not exactly." Explanation Steve's response to a S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel in 1970 noticing that he's not a familiar face. It gets used mostly in terms of Loophole Abuse especially in video games where you restart and know exactly what to do or other scenarios such as reapplying for another free trial with a new email address.
- "AVENGERS!... Assemble." Explanation Jokes about how Steve says "Avengers" very loud and clear but practically whispers "Assemble" under his breath. Cue other heroes in the back going "What did he say?", "Are we supposed to attack?" etc and noticing everyone in the front going for it and deciding that they should just also attack despite not knowing what he said. Becomes Hilarious in Hindsight when Tom Holland revealed that actually happened and he charged before everyone else and had to do another take.
- Captain America turned into Joe Biden. Explanation More than a few viewers see a resemblance between the aged-up Steve Rogers and the 46th President of the United States.
- Hail Hydra - Endgame versionExplanation 1 Cap gets into an elevator with several S.T.R.I.K.E team members and defuses the situation to get the scepter by telling Japser Sitwell "Hail HYDRA". Memes abound again. One meme came back with Sitwell saying "Avengers Assemble" and the agents attacking cap (from Winter Soldier). Explanation 2 Also mutated into Elevator Fight Dad Joke, as another variation of the above meme popped with Captain America doing the Dad Joke "I saw my dog walk over sandpaper / he said rough rough" and the agents beating him up due to the bad pun. Subsequent memes evolved into Captain America saying common jokes and Puns as the Not So Stoic agents fight with him again.
Iron Man
- "Howard Potts"Explanation During their Time Travel mission to get the stones, Tony accidentally encounters his father Howard. When the latter asks for his name, Tony used such a name as cover.
- People begging NASA to save Tony Stark. Explanation When the teaser trailer first came out and it shows Tony Stark and Nebula stranded on the Guardians' ship somewhere in space, the internet exploded with people begging NASA to do everything they can to save Tony Stark and bring him home. Even the people at NASA themselves got in on it.
- I love you 3000. Explanation How he and his daughter 'Morgan' say I love you to each other. Used to say goodbye to the current Avengers after the movie ended, and later for showing one's love of something in the Marvel Universe.
- Fuck you 3000. Explanation After the news broke that Sony would be potentially jettisoning Spider-Man from the MCU due to a financing dispute after Spider-Man: Far From Home was released, fans were quick to make edits of the scene where Tony does his snap, often inserting a middle finger that's directed at Sony and/or Marvel for causing Spidey's potential departure from the MCU.
- Tony StuckExplanation Jokes about Tony being stuck on the Benatar came up as soon as the first trailer came out.
- Irondad kissExplanation An unused take for Iron Man's reunion with Spider-Man has Tony giving Peter an affectionate kiss on the cheek as well as the hug. A number of fans, especially on Tumblr, wished they had gone with that take, and not even for Shipping reasons.
- Good Luck To All Starks this Weekend!Explanation Fans of Game of Thrones and Avengers noticed that "The Battle of Winterfell" and Endgame came out the same weekend. Cue jokes about which Stark will survive their climactic battle
- "We won, Mr. Stark." Explantion Peter says this to a dying Tony after the Battle of Earth. Fans have also taken this line in reference to how Endgame finally overtook Avatar at the box office, and after Disney and Sony patched things up to allow Spider-Man to return to the MCU.
- "You can rest now." Explanation Pepper comforting Tony in his final moments can also be attributed to many sitations, such as the aforementioned defeat of Avatar by Endgame
- "I, uh... I lost the kid." Explanation Sony and Disney's brief split, temporarily removing Spider-Man from the MCU, sparked outrage and grief among fans. Tony saying this to Cap now has Tony being replaced with Marvel Studios and Cap being replaced with fans.
- Tony pointing at a briefcase◊ Explanation A labeling meme where the briefcase is something Tony is smugly showing off to Steve Rogers. For instance.◊
Black Widow
- Chose a bad time go back to her natural red hair.
- Black Widow took fall damage.Explanation The most common way for a Video Game hero to die is to fall from a great height —kinda like Black Widow did, except not on purpose.
- See you in a minuteExplanation For a statement that's said in good faith, but proves to be patently false.
- At least Natasha understands the gravity of her situation. Explanation For those who get sad for another female character's sacrifice to get the Soul Stone, this is their consolation that unlike Gamora who was cruelly sacrificed against her will, Natasha willingly sacrifices herself and goes out with a smile.
Hawkeye / Ronin
- Mohawkeye Explanation Making fun of Hawkeye's mohawk as Ronin. Others took the punny name to mean "more Hawkeye", referencing the clamor to give Renner's character more screen time.
- Hawkeye spent a little to much time playing Ninja Gaiden.
- Hawkeye became a weeb. Explanation Hawkeye's fight with one of the Yakuza bosses was spelt with most of anime sword movements, as well as fans jokingly stating he learned Japanese from Anime (while of course the true reason is that Hawkeye spent most of his pre-retirement years as a trained assassin and a spy).
- "Don't do that. Don't give me hope." Explanation Clint being told by Natasha that there's a way to undo the Snap, resulting in this line which fans use to express their wary reactions to possible good news.
- When you get called the worst Avenger for 6 years and they want you back Explanation Hawkeye's status as a Memetic Loser got turned on his head after fans noted that, in the one Avengers movie he wasn't in, Avengers: Infinity War (as he was at home on house arrest), the Avengers actually lost the battle. This led to people (including Jeremy Renner himself) to argue that had he been in Infinity War, Thanos never would have won.
Thor
- Staring! Jeff Lebowski playing Al Bundy Explanation Thor gets called Lebowski by Tony Stark, due to his appearance. There is also a scene of him sitting sulked in a chair just like Al did in his sitcom.
- Thortnite Explanation An obvious pun on the fact that Thor has apparently spent the vast majority of the five years since the snapture...drinking beer and playing Fortnite with Korg and Miek. Becomes even funnier when Thor would eventually get version of himself as a skin in the game (along with a good chunk of the original Avengers).
- Noobmaster69 Explanation Korg complains about being insulted by a Fortnite player with this name, to which Thor promptly responds by taking the headphones and threatening the child with flying over to the child's house, ripping off his arms and shoving them up his ass. The internet instantly made Noobmaster into a Memetic Badass on the same level as the rat that saved Ant-Man, saying that he was the one who called the Avengers' armies together for the final battle, or joking that the true identity of "Noobmaster's" player was actually someone like Thanos, Doctor Doom, Howard the Duck, Loki having faked his death (again) or the Red Skull/ Stonekeeper playing Fortnite to pass the time while being stuck on Vormir alone for all eternity. His identity was eventually found out.
- I now have the body of a god./Thanks to Endgame, I now have the body of a god.Explanation A joke referring to Thor's extreme change in appearance during the time skip and the common expression "body of a god" meaning... not what Thor has for most of the movie.
- Instant Braiding.Explanation In the scene right before he confronts Thanos, Thor's hair and beard goes from unkempt to braided in between shots. This prompted fans to joke that braiding is one of Mjonir's/Stormbreaker's powers or that Thor's hair itself has some inherent ability to braid itself in a matter of seconds.
- "I'm still worthy!" explanation Thor's rejoicing over being able to still summon Mjolnir has been adopted to refer to whenever someone finds out they Still Got It.
- "You have the little one." Explanation Thor insisting that he keeps Stormbreaker while Cap keeps the much smaller Mjolnir.
- "Are you crying?" "No!...Yes!"
- Impressed Thor◊.Explanation Thor's reaction after Hulk puts the Stark gauntlet on and withstands its energy long enough to reverse the snap
- "Is he asleep?" "Nah. Pretty sure he's dead."Explanation Thor's complete lack of reaction to Steve asking him about what he knows about the Aether.
- I like this one Explanation The reaction of Thor to Carol's stoic reaction and smirk and Thor saying this has been paired up with various alternate takes such as Thor giving two choices and Carol choosing to Take a Third Option, which normally resulted in this quote.
- "Hold my beer! ...No wait, give it back!"Explanation While not an actual line Thor says, many fans tend to use variations of this joke to poke fun at Thor's dependence on alcohol during the events of the film.
Ant-Man
- The #Thanus theory. Explanation As Ant-Man is the other half of the Thanus theory, which jokingly imagines Ant-Man defeating Thanos by either crawling up in his ass and expanding or becoming Giant-Man and shoving him inside his ass, while Scott's reaction tends to be This Is Gonna Suck.
- Scott being locked out of the garage. Explanation Scott's moment of arriving at the Avengers facility and demanding entry has been likened to Scott requesting for his role in Endgame where he was Put on a Bus for Infinity War.
- Ant-Man is Brandon Breyer. Explanation When Scott is turned into a teenager as part of time-traveling shenanigans, he's played by Jackson Dunn, who later played Brandon Breyer in the film Brightburn, a film about a kid, Breyer, with an origin story similar to Superman (rocket ship crash-lands near a couple's farm, a baby boy is found on board, the couple takes him in as their own and raise him, boy turns out to have extraordinary superpowers), except that he uses his powers for evil. Cue several Brightburn jokes.
- Ant-Man, the real Savior.Explanation A statement that made the rounds after fans noted that, while Thor killed Thanos on Titan and Iron Man snapped Thanos from existence at the end of the film, Ant-Man was the one who came up with the entire plan of the Time Heist, and he was responsible for rallying everyone around in the first place.
- So Back to the Future is a bunch of bullshit? Explanation Fans like to exaggerate Scott's realization that the rules of time travel of Back to the Future don't apply to the time travel they operate with in this film in full blown betrayal angst.
- What the hell happened here? Explanation Scott asks this to a kid passing by when he emerges from the Quantum Tunnel 5 years after the Snap with no idea what's going on. Became a reaction to a person discovering a scene of chaos, or to any (written sentence mentioning a) real life Noodle Incident.
Hulk
- "My rematch is coming real soon, I can feel it!" Explanation A fake trailer description, in which the Hulk trains Rocky-style to fight Thanos, ended with the Green Goliath saying this Narm-tacular line, in Bruce Banner's voice. It's often used as a joke referencing the possibility of Hulk fighting Thanos again, or to express general excitement toward seeing Hulk in the movie after he was subject to The Worf Effect in Infinity War. This experienced a surge in popularity when the Hulk really did spend the entire movie speaking eloquently in Banner's voice. Amusingly, Hulk and Thanos do not have a rematch, although Banner does use the Hulkbuster to hold Thanos down in the prologue.
- Hulk dabsExplanation Self-explanatory; done when a group of kids ask him for his autograph. Became notable due to the sheer absurdity of the Hulk dabbing, often being used as a spoiled scene because it's not important plot-wise and sounds like a made-up joke spoiler.
- Using TVTropes without night vision (Hulk) vs using TVTropes with night vision (Professor Hulk)Explantation With the reveal of Professor Hulk, many began posting images of Old Hulk and Professor Hulk using captions like the example given.
- So many stairs!!Explanation One gag in the movie features the Hulk from 2012 failing to change back into Bruce after defeating Loki. As such, while the other Avengers take the elevator, Tony has the Hulk take the stairs from the penthouse of Stark Tower to the lobby. The sheer absurdity of something as banal as a stairwell aggravating the Hulk caught on in the fandom. One common variation came about once the second trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home was released. One included bit sees Peter Parker listing adult superheroes better suited to the current crisis, all of whom are Hand Waved away. In the comments, people jokingly include other hand waves - nine times out of ten, the Hulk can’t come because he’s either taking the stairs or dabbing.
- Angry Hulk vs Civil Hulk. Explanation As Bruce and Hulk merged as one, Hulk mellowed out to become the source of power while allowing Bruce to keep his sanity, enabling Bruce to 'be the best of both worlds', according to him. This spawned a meme series where Hulk before maturity is compared to Hulk after maturity, being a (false) poster for Badass Decay, or Character Development.
