Could this be a hint for doomsday???

Hey everyone! I'm new to this subreddit, but I had to share a theory I developed after listening to "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath.

The lyrics of this song connect eerily well with what we know about the upcoming movie, Avengers: Doomsday, and the possible role of Doctor Doom.

Here are the specific lyrical connections that caught my attention:

1. The Time Travel/Sacrifice Connection

The verse:

“When he traveled time For the future of mankind”

This line is a direct parallel to what Iron Man (Tony Stark) did in Avengers: Endgame .

2. Doom's Identity and RDJ Casting Speculation

The questioning lines:

“Is he alive or dead? Has he thoughts within his head?”

This makes me wonder if it could be a subtle hint about why Robert Downey Jr. might have been cast for the role of Doctor Doom. Could Doom be an alternate reality or somehow connected version of Tony Stark who is "alive" but fundamentally changed?

3. The "Doom" Prophecy

The most striking connection is this section, which sounds exactly like the classic motivations of Victor Von Doom:

“Nobody wants him He just stares at the world Planning his vengeance That he will soon unfurl Now the time is here For Iron Man to spread fear Vengeance from the grave Kills the people he once saved”

This sounds exactly like what Doctor Doom would do, especially the idea of "Iron Man to spread fear," which fits the theory that Doom is essentially an evil, parallel-universe version of Iron Man. The song's title itself, "Iron Man," ties directly into Stark.

I know this might sound crazy, but I'm aware the MCU has done something similar before, like associating music with the plot of a Thor movie.

What do you all think? Am I just connecting random dots, or could Black Sabbath's "Iron Man" be a huge, subtle clue?

For a minute I thought, Back in Black? These aren't the lyrics are they? No, lol, Iron Man, they could do this if they're thinking like this, I'm now imagining Doom walks up to his throne as a final scene, just the music plays, no lyrics, he walks past the people by his side, Sheriff Strange, Sue and Franklin, maybe a King Thanos and a Maestro, and he sits at his God Emperor throne on Battle World, cut the music and to black, credits roll with Doom's main theme, whatever it sounds like

interesting

Is this a joke? Is a song that was written 55 years ago foreshadowing a Disney movie that hasn’t come out yet? Did Disney base a movie off of a 55 year old sing? No. No it isn’t. No they didn’t.

When did a song tie in to Thor lore?

Immigrant Song ties into IRL Norse mythology, if that counts.

LOTR was based on “Ramble On”

“Twas in the darkest depths of Mordor

I met a girl so fair

But Gollum and the evil one

Crept up and slipped away with her, her, her, her, her, yeah”

Please go see a doctor. If this isn’t trolling

"A huge hint" highly unlikely and almost definitely not.

But, I'd call it an interesting (at least to me) tidbit that the lyrics line up pretty well to what everyone assumes the plot is going to be.

If the plot is what we all think it is, it would be a fun callback if they used it again to open/close Doomsday since IM1 rolls credits to the same song.

This is exactly what this sub is for. Fun theory OP. I enjoyed it, wether the relationship between the lyrics and the movie are coincidence or not, still an interesting take by you. Bravo

\> I know this might sound crazy, but I'm aware the MCU has done something similar before, like associating music with the plot of a Thor movie.

That's quite the interpretation for a cool needle drop.

Do you really think the Marvel creative team decided they would make sure Tony's life story matched a song called "Iron Man" that wasn't about Tony in the first place?
