  (#5) Thanos's Co-Creator Makes An Appearance At Therapy

  After half of all life on Earth is eliminated by Thanos, Steve Rogers spends some of his downtime running a counseling group. It's a pretty high-profile one too based on the members. Not only does one of the movies' directors, Joe Russo, share a story about dating post-Snap, but Jim Starlin, the co-creator of Thanos himself, is also there to seek and provide emotional support to fellow survivors.

  (#8) Morgan Stark Is A Comic Book Character - But Not Tony's Daughter

  Even though Tony and Pepper name their daughter Morgan in Avengers: Endgame, she's not the same Morgan Stark that fans may know from the comics. That Morgan Stark is actually Tony's cousin and also a recurring villain. In the comics, Morgan's father sold his shares in Stark Industries decades earlier, so this version of Morgan Stark resents Tony for his success and riches. Morgan teams up with villains like Madame Masque and the forces of H.A.M.M.E.R. to pester Iron Man both as a businessman and as a superhero.

  Even stranger, in Avengers: Infinity War, Tony tells Pepper he had a dream they had a son. Clearly, the name Morgan is both some kind of homage and a fake out for comic book super fans.

  (#16) Tony Always Loved Cheeseburgers

  When Happy Hogan asks Tony Stark's daughter Morgan what she'd like to eat at the funeral, Morgan immediately responds with cheeseburgers. While lots of people like cheeseburgers, this shows Morgan is a lot like her father. After Tony escapes from captivity in the original Iron Man, his first request to Happy after he gets back to the United States is to get some cheeseburgers. Like father, like daughter.

  (#7) "I Love You 3000" Came From A Surprising Source

  When Tony is tucking his daughter into bed after sorting out how to safely travel through time, she tells her father, "I love you 3000" which he later brags about to Pepper Pots. The line became an emotional pressure point after Tony's passing when he says it again at his memorial service. It's no surprise that the phrase has taken on a life of its own with fans using it in their day to day. 

  Endgame writer Christopher Markus revealed that Tony's daughter was initially supposed to say, "I love you tons," but RDJ inspired the change on set. Apparently, RDJ and his kids actually say, "I love you 3000" to each other, and the writers liked it so much they put it in the film.

  (#1) 'The Terminal Beach' Has An End-Game

  Once Scott Lang escapes from his stint in the Quantum Realm, he faces the very real possibility he'll never escape from the storage facility in which his van is stored. Thankfully, a sympathetic security guard played by Ken Jeong helps him escape.

  But before he does, the security guard puts down his book - The Terminal Beach. This book was published in 1964 and includes several short science fiction stories, including one titled End-Game.

  (#4) A Fantasy Football Expert Backs Up Secretary Pierce

  This is more of a cameo for sports and fantasy football fanatics, but ESPN's senior fantasy analyst, Matthew Berry, shows up in 2012 New York as a personal bodyguard for secret Hydra member Alexander Pierce. He doesn't look as imposing as some of the other Hydra double-agents, but maybe he's just there to advise on whether Aaron Rodgers was worth a first round pick in Pierce's fantasy draft.
