Avengers: Endgame is finally available for home-viewing, which means Marvel Cinematic Universe fans are taking advantage of that HD footage and posting some quality screenshots on social media. While some posts are fun, others are reminding us of the movie’s more tragic moments. A recent post to r/MarvelStudios, a subreddit “dedicated to discussing Marvel Studios, the films and television shows, and anything else related to the MCU,” shows the moments Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) and Natasha Romonaff/Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) realize they’re going to have to sacrifice themselves for the greater good.

“The moment of realization,” u/AscAnsio wrote.
Ouch, our hearts! Many fans chimed in on the post, paying tribute to the fallen characters:
“Part of the journey is the end,” u/MatBan_Quids7567 wrote.
“Love them 6000,” u/Rapturesjoy replied.
“I believe Tony was thinking of Morgan and Pepper in this scene. That is why his face reflects pain and struggle along with determination. However, Natasha’s face seems to reflect a slight sense of contentment. As if she is finally able to redeem herself… That she was meant for this,” u/817_Atlas suggested.
“Whatever it takes,” u/ruanl1 added.
“I know it’s a shot in the dark but I truly believe that RDJ deserves an Oscar for Endgame (or at least a nomination.) He carried this whole movie with such dramatic weight for Tony,” u/psykobyte wrote.
