Thanos’ Butt
As ridiculous as that sounds, Ant-Man up Thanos’ hindquarters is a very persistent theory people have talked about on Reddit for years. And, we suppose, that might be one way to end the conflict, at least from the “stopping-Thanos” perspective. We’re pretty positive this won’t happen as the conclusion to a ten-year, 22-film saga that has kept the entire world rapt…but then again.
The Evidence
Disney tweeted on Friday a series of character posters (yes, a different set) meant to get folks excited for a fan event at Shanghai Disneyland. They feature Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye…and Ant-Man. And also their butts!

The heroes face the rising sun on a rooftop. While this may just be a cool image (unless, you know, you want to see any of the female heroes represented), it may also give us a hint about the end of Endgame.
It’s telling us, focus on their butts. Their butts are important. Butts are important. Ant-Man…and butts. They’re important.
A Third Thing
Not only that, but Daniel Patterson on Twitter has given us a pretty great visual representation of how it all might shake out:

The evidence is all right there. Now we’re not sure what’ll happen. It might be a team effort involving many heroes using their individual powers to perfection. Or it could just be Ant-Man going up a Mad Titan’s butt and exploding him via instant-embiggening. You decide. And then ALSO stop. Ant-Man should get 500 medals for this. I mean, Thanos can’t be getting enough fiber.
Avengers: Endgame premieres April 26 and Odin help us all if there’s butt stuff.
