The equivalent of "I am your father" for our generation isn't from movies.
"Would you kindly" is our generation's plot twist.

The endgame assemble scene is not a twist that redefines the entire context of the film series, nor the primary antagonist and protagonists motivations, so no.
This ^. People who haven't watched game of thrones know this scene. It redefined the recent golden age of TV and changed how most shows are written nowadays.

Definitely this. It was a legitimate mind-blowing twist when LOST was at its height.
This one made me laugh out loud in the cinema. It was so horribly done.
Personally I've gotten better plot twists from tv shows than films the last decade.
Fight Club was a wtf moment for me as a child but it is based on a book so not the same...
Although I love the "Would you kindly" scene, it doesn't (and won't) even approach the cultural impact of "No, I am your father".
I do agree however that the equivalent isn't from movies; I think television shows are a much 'better' source of potential candidates.
Game of Thrones with Baelor and Rains of Castamere are the closest from the last decade which immediately come to mind.

I'm not sure I'd say that particular line is close though.
"Avengers Assemble" is something I've been waiting for since the very first Avengers movie. It absolutely elevated Endgame for me. That said, no it's not a huge pop culture event anywhere near "I am your father." There have certainly been much better ones in movies and on TV.
Avengers doesn't have to encompass every aspect of a generations pop culture. I mean if you wanted to pick on Tony stark revealing he's iron man is a better choice.
The Vader scene is an iconic plot twist coming from a time when plot twists like that were super rare, and it re contextualize the whole story in a few words.
Avengers Assemble is the closest they could get to Cap actually turning to the camera and winking to the audience. It's dumb fan service. It's works, it's super cool, but it's nothing more than that.

This is hyperbolic. Star Wars is not as big as the US thinks it is.
I'd argue most of the newer generations aren't interested enough to watch the older movies.
The snap is closer. Even knowing what was coming, it still affected a lot of people emotionaly during the movie. It was such a well executed moment. The one thing that took away from some of the fallout was knowing what sequel films were in the works.
I said please dont let this be a surprise marvel thread and here we are. To contribute there is no moment this generation that's like that so far.
A garbage scene for a garbage movie. Even "the snap" stuff was undone. None of those movies had any impactful scenes. It's typical Marvel stuff.
The statement didn't make sense when he said it - the Avengers have already assembled when he tells them to assemble. It's like he's just trying to use a snazzy catchphrase rather than issuing an iconic command.
Also, I really doubt the internet would become super anal and pedantic about misremembering "Avengers Assemble" like they are about the whole Luke/father quote, so it's definitely not that. Although I guess they could become super anal and pedantic about whether "Avengers Assemble" is a command to gather after they've already gathered...

It's not really when the comic has been out for nearly four hunnid fitty years.
you are correct. Wish more people thought like you around here. What trash the MCU is. Hard to believe it's so "beloved."
