Sadness x 3000
Remarkably one of the most heartbreaking and memorable lines in Marvel history is the detrimental transaction between Tony Stark and his on-screen daughter. Millions of Marvel Universe fans reached for the tissues and wiped their sad eyes at the exact same moment this line was spoken.
“I love you 3,000” tore audiences apart but Robert Downey, Jr. didn’t take responsibility for the off-beat line, because it was inspired by what he says to his own children. Tony told his daughter Morgan, “I love you tons” and she countered with, “I love you 3,000.” What a stellar moment that was.
