2. The Funeral Line-Up

The literal lineup of people during Tony Stark's funeral might seem random to most viewers, but for fans who followed Tony Stark's journey from the first film to the last, the attendees hold a lot of meaning to the hero's history in the MCU.

The OG Iron Man team stands right up at the front, with Pepper, Tony's wife and beloved partner from the very first film, alongside Rhodey, Tony's best friend and personal superhero, and Happy Hogan, his chauffeur and dear, loyal friend. The only newcomer in that group is Tony's very own daughter Morgan.

Standing right behind them is Steve Rogers, whose connection to Tony as a partner in heroism and co-leader, who stood equal and sometimes opposite to him as heroes and Avengers, cannot be understated.

Many more characters are seen following them, including Peter Parker, who Tony helped grow as a superhero, and even Harley, the inventor boy from Iron Man 3 with whom he "had a connection".

Last, but not least, Nick Fury stands at the very back, watching over everyone - ironic, as the first character to bring the singular Iron Man into an entire universe of marvels.
