A new Easter egg was recently discovered in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that proved that Tony Stark was a man with more heart than the playboy he pretended to look like.
In a scene in Iron Man 2, Tony Stark meets Nick Fury in a robe with a very special pattern. At first glance, it seemed that this robe merely confirmed his pompous character and flamboyant taste.
But in reality, he was remembering his father, Howard Stark. In another MCU film, Howard Stark wears an identical robe.
Tony Stark once said to Potts: "I have a lot of characteristics, but 'nostalgia' is not one of them." "Obviously, the character is hiding his true emotions.
I didn't expect this Easter egg to be hidden so deeply, but this small detail very accurately reflects Tony's unknown true feelings.
As Tony has shown in many Marvel movies, he is not good at expressing himself, always clumsily expressing his tender heart with arrogant and humorous words.
In Avengers 1, Tony gets close to Banner the first time he meets him, poking Banner just to tell Banner that I'm not afraid of you, and when he shows off the gamma-ray knowledge he's just learned recently, just to tell Banner that we have a common language and that we can be friends.
In "Iron Man 3", although Tony usually looks like a big guy to Happi, after Happi is unconscious, Tony tells the medical staff, don't change the station, this is Happi's favorite show.
In "Spider-Man", although Tony did not say it directly to Harpy, he secretly asked the little spider to pay attention to Harpy's health, and he was also duplicitous to the little spider, ostensibly saying that he would not pay attention to the little spider's small things, but he listened carefully to all the calls from the little spider.
This is Tony Stark, the arrogant playboy who has a soft heart under his cynical exterior.
