A year ago, fans held their breath as the Marvel mammoth 'Avengers Endgame' hit the screens, putting an end to 10 years worth of storytelling. We had to bid painful goodbyes to characters like Captain America (Chris Evans), who decided to live the rest of his life with Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) and Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr), who sacrificed his life to save the universe from Thanos (Josh Brolin). Packed with nostalgia, iconic moments such as the the final showdown with Thanos, the Time Heist and the comic banter, 'Endgame' is a truly a film that fans can never get tired of reminiscing.

On its anniversary, 'Avengers Endgame' began to trend on Twitter. Fans put forward questions, their favourite moments and new theories. A fan tweeted the video of Thanos snapping his fingers, only to realize that he didn't have the Infinity Stones. Tony Stark, who has them, snaps his finger and says, "I am Iron Man." The fan wrote, "This scene gave Audience with goosebumps Epic scene and Tony stark always be in our heart #AvengersEndgame #OneYearOfEndgame #TonyStark #3000.

"One year ago! That day will always give me goosebumps! The cinematic experience will always be remembered!" A fan wrote.

"For 10yrs we saw heros building, superheroes saving, and a LEGEND!!! We waited a decade for Captain calling #AvengersAssemble And we saw Tony's ultimate sacrifice.... I am #IronMan #AvengersEndgame," a fan wrote. 

"It was worth the wait... #AvengersEndgame best Marvel movie I've seen... and I've seen nearly all of them. The theaters were popping for this film. Great blend of action, emotion and humor while keeping the stakes high throughout. Truly an achievement in blockbuster filmmaking," another fan tweeted.

Another fan added that the world needs 'another snap' at the moment. "One year since #AvengersEndgame. Wonderful ending to one of the entertaining film franchise of all time. Btw, We do need another snap to reset the world right now," they tweeted.

Some fans tried to puzzle how exactly Captain America returning to an alternate timeline will change the current timeline. "Still thinking about how the fact that Steve Rogers went back in time and ‘moved’ there to have a life with Peggy means that there’s still another version of him frozen in the sea. Are we going to see him in the future? WHAT DOES IT MEAN," the fan wrote.

"Love you 3000 iron man 1 year of endgame first movie made me cry when tony died," wrote another fan.

"Happy 1 year anniversary to the greatest movie to ever be created #AvengersEndgame," tweeted another fan.

'Avengers Endgame' smashed records and went on to become one of the highest-grossing films in Hollywood, beating James Cameron's 'Avatar' and 'Titanic'.
