Episode Details

In Part Two of our Avengers: Endgame (2019) episode, Ryan and Jason unsurprisingly disagree on a number of things. They both believe Act 4 (the battle) is the weakest part of the film, but that's pretty much all they agree on. Jason is of the opinion that Iron Man has finally become a "real boy," and that his farewell message and the funeral scenes should not have been included. Ryan completely disagrees, finding the pathos of these moments worthwhile and fulfilling. Jason analyzes a number of philosophical and ethical insights the film provides, and Ryan delivers a heart-felt audio essay. What do you think about the battle sequence in End Game? In what ways do thinking about the film studies, ethics, and philosophy enhance or detract from your enjoyment of this film? What are your thoughts on Avengers: Endgame (2019)?
