Avengers Endgame: Reversing the Snap a Mistake? | Big Question
Avengers Infinity War and Avengers Endgame saw the dusting and resurrections of half of all life… but did the Avengers do us any favors by bringing us back to a crappy world? The MCU gave hints of life during the five-year Blip period in Avengers Endgame and Spider-Man Far From Home — a dark time, but one that society appeared to begin to move on from. So when Bruce Banner, Tony Stark, and the rest of the Avengers snapped everyone back into existence, what version of reality were they bringing them back into? Should they have been left blipped out of existence? In this episode of #BigQuestion, Filup Molina and Erik Voss explain the darkest consequences of a real-life society in which half of all life suddenly vanishes, but even worse, what would happen to that society if, five years later, everyone suddenly reappeared where they had vanished before. Would even more people die if they were brought back without notice like that? How would reversing the snap affect things like unemployment, housing, food shortages, crime, public health, and relationships? Are Bruce and Tony monsters for resurrecting everyone?
