Minute One Hundred Twenty Eight: From The Fall of Tony to Concern About Their Fallen Friend
Robin Burdge from Karate Kid Minute and Sword Boys joins us in this episode!
In the one-hundred-twenty-eighth minute of The Avengers…
Tony continues his unconscious falling from space back toward the one-sided hole, but will he make it? That’s the big question on everyone’s minds below. Unfortunately, with a nuclear explosion heading their way from the other side of the hole, Steve has to make the tough call to close the hole, potentially leaving Tony behind. It’s the tough call a military leader has to know when to make, and he makes it, knowing it’s potentially for the good of Earth. After all, if he doesn’t shut it, that nuclear blast will push through the hole.
It does lead to questions about how much radiation would actually make it through the hole, not to mention why it takes so long to get to the hole. We also wonder about the edge of the hole. Is it tangible? Or is it more like a laser that’d cut you in half if you hit it? And why, on Earth’s side, isn’t it depicted as something people actually have to fly through in order to get from the hole?
But the heroes do shut the hole and Tony makes it through. He’s unconscious, and luckily, Hulk decides he’s going to save Tony and he does so. Then he casually tosses him to the side. It’s touching and funny. Tune in!
