Hehehe, well no matter who we choose as being Snapped, there will be quite a few unhappy fans.
You joke, but that is possible. After all, actors age. Robert Downey Jr. is 56 right now irl. This would be a big way to send Iron Man off and to let the actor out of the franchise.

We can still undo the Snap just fine.
Just have the time period with them gone be very short and wish for everyone snapped or killed as a result of the snap to be brought back safely. Even a week would be the biggest catastrophe in human history. We can show some bad effects from it. Lots of devastation and rebuilding.
Make it a desperate struggle to get the gems. Maybe have them sent throughout the universe after each time they are used together. That way it's the reverse of Infinity war. Thanos trying to stop the heros from getting the gems and undoing his great work.

That would be a genius way to introduce Legacy characters like Kate Bishop!

I'm partial to the idea of not undoing the snap now. Or if we do undo it and a large time skip, have some films of tv shows set during it to show the effects that it has had.

Keeping up with Irreversible Snap, I'm thinking Quicksilver gets snapped as well, meaning Wanda will lose not only her love Vision, but also her brother. If we still have Vision die from the Mind Stone getting ripped out of him.

Mmm, given Infinity War and Endgame were a year away from one another. It would give a good window for a season going after the effects. So that's not a bad idea either.

Yes you are.
That's a good way to make WandaVision/House of M thing

Not undoing it would be a fairly epic move that would undoubtedly get us into cinematic history books for good or bad but good God that is a risky play.
If it's not done INCREDIBLY well that would probably kill the marvel universe stone dead with peoples favorite heros just going <poof> gone.
But if it got pulled off successfully we would be up there among the original trilogy and Citizen Kane. A cultural landmark.
I wouldn't risk it. But if everyone votes for it...
We've got like 15 movies till then right?

To further my evilness, if we can get Spiderman somehow into the MCU, Aunt May and his current love interest will be snapped. Iron Man can still be a somewhat-mentor figure to Peter, but not make it feel like Peter's Ironboy Jr.
So, if I have my way, not only will Peter lose his mentor, but also his only family and love interest. You know what, if Harry Osborn or Ned Leeds is in the MCU, let's snap them as well.
If it's still not obvious, I'm evil.

Oh God... I can see the last scene of the movie now.
The heros have gotten all but one stone. They get to the last one and Thanos throws everything at them. His entire army, his lieutenants, his ship are all eventually destroyed and they rush to the gem location.
Thanos is there and he has the last gem. Looks at the heros and says "There's no going back.". And using the reality gem or whatever to destroy itself killing him in the process.
The end.

Nothing's too much... Ok, maybe I'm going a bit too far. Maybe Harry can live...
I guess to balance things out, I'll let Nick Fury live. He's too badass. Don't know about Maria Hill, but I guess she can live too.
And let Agent Coulson die instead.

The one time the villain wins... What a Game of Thrones level twist of a finale, but hopefully much better done than GoT's ending.

That's true, who knows. Things might look different once we reach there. Phase I is already looking very different than what it was in the OTL.
That would be a good moment in the Agents of Shield if we do that. Have Coulson dust away in front of Skye.

To further, further, my evilness, Captain America is snapped, leaving Bucky wracked with guilt about his best friend's death and Sam the humongous mantle of Captain America's legacy looming over him as he struggles to become the next Captain America.
Far away, I hear the sounds of many wailing fans, in another time, in another universe.

Ngl, I prefer that than what we got in the OTL.

Maybe not snaped but dies from injuries or something.
If we wanted to get real crazy, the Snap could act as something of a timeline split. Different series, shows, and movies could focus on parallel timelines where different heroes/people survived it (since it's supposed to be a random delete button on half the universe). If nothing else, that would provide some great fodder storylines for comics and tv shows.

To further me kicking puppies and just being someone who likes watching people suffer, Thor gets snapped, leaving Loki the burden of ruling Asgard with a populace not too keen on him being ruler. Loki struggles to reconcile with his brother's death and might or might not slip. He also wants to find someone worthy of Mjolnir, since his brother died and now Mjolnir has no wielder.
I'm evil.
Possible scene(Basically Cap wielding Mjolnir, but adjusted):
Basically, Thanos is fighting one of the heroes, and we see Mjolnir lifted. Thanos is knocked back by Mjolnir, and we see Steve holding Mjolnir in a battle stance. In the background, we see Loki tearing up when he sees this, whispering; "Finally, someone worthy."

That's not even considering the horrifying effects that snapping an actual divine being might have on the world. If Thor is literally the god of Thunder, what happens when he is vanished from the universe? Would there be insane, illogical weather phenomena? Depending on whether this Mjolnir is like the comics version, it could also contain a galaxy spanning cosmic storm of immense power.
Personally though, I'm for the main timeline universe still attempting to revert the Snap, because I think it's exactly what they would do... but I'm curious about the differing effects that might have. Thor is an actual divinity, could he handle the power of the gauntlet? Depending on how powerful the gauntlet is in this, what changes would be wrought on the character to pick it up? In the comics it gave you omniscience and borderline omnipotence within the singular universe the stones held together, what would knowing everything do to the person who wields it?

This is something I was thinking about as well. Thor is a literal god, I personally feel that he could handle the Infinity Stones. However, the question is still a very good one that a person can was philosophical about for days. So if the heroes do try to revert the Snap, I would definitely want to see Thor wielding a gauntlet-thing.
