Avengers: Engame - 9/10
A roller-coaster ride full of emotions, joy and sadness. Excellent ending for the Avengers timeline.

nah hype is fine. people had a connection with the characters for so long. it was an emotional situation to bid goodbye to them, as many of the audience grew up with them for a decade. apart from that the plot, the story and action stuff were top notch for a superhero movie.
And that's why it is a plot device because it is must for success/plot.
They were discussing in the Avenger compound. At least at one point one of them were there where the stone was (except for Soul stone). And I am assuming that they were guessing that Strange should have time stone in 2012, in New York @ Sanctum.
But they didn't have any resource to try other combination. This is the only thing they tried and succeeded.
GUESSING:
Why not? Gamora is alive in this new timeline, right?
Resurrection by Infinity stones and not via Time travel.
Thanos reverse engineered the Pym Particles to mass produce for his troops.
Thanos & his companion Magician
That applies to DC too,it is not a guarantee that marvel movies will repeat their success every time. Infinity Gauntlet is probably the most popular/recognizable crossover/team-up story in marvel universe( 15 Best Marvel Comics Storylines Of All Time ). Maybe next time they can reboot Infinity Gauntlet storyline with X-men,fantastic 4 & adam warlock.

Silver Surfer, Deadpool, Wolverine, Death and the Titans were supposedly vital for Infinity Gauntlet storyline as well, but they managed without
I would have loved to see Deadpool in Avengers. Best comic relief IMO.
My bad, I remembered that it was held by someone other than Marvel but couldn't recall who.
I mean tesseract was just sitting in Asgard's vault at that time.
It was not just sitting,Asgard's vault probably has some of the most powerful security measures in that universe.
You mean the one when he first refused to work with cap & ant man.I think it was just some standard time paradox statement.
Here's The Actual Science Behind That Huge Plot Point in Avengers: Endgame
EPR Paradox.
Read this when it came out in The Conversation, thing is they do not address all the technical terms used.
Ya. Not all the terms are wrong though. From what i've read, EG handled the Time travel paradox effectively compared to the other time travel movies.
Another way to look at is - 2018's Thanos got more time to study each Avenger effectively learning their weakness/strength, prior making a move in I-War. We also can't forget the fact that Thanos beat Hulk purely based on his Brute strength, and not with Infinity stones. He may've thought "If i can beat Hulk without stones, then i can very well take down others without my armor".
well, may be their detection antenna was not facing towards thanos planet this time, to detect the energy signature. for the retirement plan, may be thanos shared with his beloved daughter about his desires to purchase a house to settle down at shimla post retirement.
I think when Tessaract was returned to 1970 it reset any changes done in 2012 by future versions.Of course marvel can use this as an excuse to bring back loki in future but that would be a plot hole like I mentioned in my previous post.
- Cap jumps back? If I have to assume, I would assume it as that he stayed with Peggy and got old. But how that timeline crossed prime universe is kinda loophole. If he stayed with Peggy, he didn't fight 2012 war (or he did fight as an old man), or who saved Bucky in Winter Soldier?
Wasn't Loki truly dead in IW, just like Vision/Heimdall? As Prof. hulk said how many times he tried to bring back Natasha, he can't. So, i doubt Loki will appear in future.
Yeah, he did died. They can't bring him back using stones to current timeline. But he can be alive in the timeline branch they created in 2012 and in the 2014 timeline where Thanos comes to current timeline and died. If there is no Thanos in 2014 timeline, then Loki can't be killed by Thanos.
From what I've understood from End game time-travel concept, one can't change the past. If they try to change, it will create Branch timelines though Original will remain intact. So, O will be present with B1, B2, etc.,
Yes, parallel timelines the only thing is they stole the stones from the timelines which were meant to be restored to its respective timeline
Yes,it should reset everything including no branching of original/prime timeline.Stones are not being returned to "their timeline" but "their original place in time". If someone took a stone in 1970 to use in Endgame then it needs to be returned exactly to 1970(that is also why loki getting tessaract is irrelevant because that was not used in Endgame as the one used was from 1970) & since there are 6 stones so there are 6 places in time they need to be returned. Existence of alternative timelines suggest more than 6 infinity stones as each timeline will have their own infinity stones but as per comics,infinity stones of a particular timeline/universe work only in that timeline/universe.
If infinity stones are gathered again in a similar way then loki & Heimdell can be brought back but who would do that(infinity stones grant a single specific wish so it is either "undo the snap" or "bring back loki & heimdell"). Vision & Black Widow are special cases because Vision was created from mind stone so his existence require mind stone from start(after coming back) but mind stone cannot be with vision from the start if it is already in infinity gauntlet. Same is the case with black widow whose soul was a payment to get soul stone,you cannot bring a soul back which was already given as payment to get soul stone because if it comes back then transaction for soul stone stands null & void meaning no soul stone in the first place.
It's not clear and it's confusing. And I don't know why it's irrelevant Loki absconding with Tessaract. It's a total mess up by the makers, that's what I would say. Please don't bother explaining this for me again. Thanks
So Marvel bent the story for it's convenience to make this movie, then. Coz, none of the stones used by Tony are from this timeline/universe. All from different timelines/universe. Iron man snap shouldn't have worked then.
Yes, exactly, plus Peggy has to pretend that she is not married to Cap when she meets him at her death bed.
That's where the confusion comes from,in my opinion all stones came from same timeline/universe but different times(each timeline/universe has its own past,present & future after all). In comics it is clarified by numbering of the different realities/timelines/universes,prime universe/main universe is Earth-616 & any infinity stone of Eath-616 universe will work in it whether it comes from the past or future of Earth-616 reality/universe.
Young cap is in the timeline, frozen in ice? Old cap could also have "rescued" young cap to change the timeline
Yeah, that's right.
I missed it.
very much valid concern. he will need another time travel to go 1970 and return the tes.
I don't see a single plot hole here.
I think I understood this theory.
The original branch remained with Thanos & everything exactly as it was before leading to IW event.The Thanos that came from past who died along with his army was resurrected back in 2014 as soon as timeline was restored/infinity stones were returned.It only means that Thor & group who killed Thanos in 2018 now have a memory of killing him again in 2023.
Yeah. If branches are erased or vanished after returning the stone, means Hulk snapping should also be erased. Why? Coz Nebula who comes from 2014 is part of that branch. She is the who brings Power stone which Hulk used it to snap the people back to current time. So this theory doesn't make sense at all.
In that case bringing back Tony and Natasha using time space gps not gonna create any branches. So the rest of the avengers chose those two to remain dead. Captain could've taken two extra gps with him when he went to return those stones.
That's not going to work,issue is not with time space gps but with the way Tony & Nat died.Tony can't be resurrected in prime timeline because he is always going to be the one who snapped the past version Thanos away(aka the only possible future which Dr. Strange saw in IW where Avengers won & the reason he gave time stone away to save Tony's life in IW),his resurrection demands another assemble of infinity stones in prime timeline which is not possible. As for Nat,she died as a payment for soul stone which was then used in Endgame snaps so she also cannot be resurrected because her resurrection means soul stone cannot exist in prime timeline at the time of Endgame snaps(you cannot have duplicate/2 versions of same soul of Nat of original timeline).
First,from the point of practicality this won't happen.It is better to reboot the entire marvel lineup or go with some other plot line instead of stretching the original movie lineup(think of terminator series). I don't think Marvel is going to make this same mistake.
Just my guess but exactly after nebula & hawkeye returned to 2023 & as soon as cap returned it & went back,2014 timeline was reset so peter quill was on his way to get stone without getting knocked out & thanos was in his usual place in 2014.
My guess is that Janet is different from Ant-man in the sense that she actually lived inside QR for a long time so maybe the rules that affect Ant-man don't affect her in same way.
Sure, but how did Cap actually return the stone? Did he just go up to Red Skull and say, "here, you can have it back"? Does Cap not get a soul in exchange for the soul stone?
I don't think soul can be exchanged for placing back soul stone.
Not sure but most likely he just need to drop the soul stone from that cliff.As for getting anything in return that is not possible because as I said earlier,any soul given as payment for getting soul stone is kind of like a rent(but without any fixed time period) so whenever the stone is returned the payment still stands.
but, capten needed to travel to that planet first. how could he do that ?
I believe the time travel tech allow them to directly reach any place in universe as long as they have correct coordinates(which avengers had for all 6 stones' locations).
i would guess thats for the time jump only. to return other stones he had to travel to earth, if soul planet was his first destination.
No,the time travel tech allows one to jump to any coordinate as long as there is enough supply of pym particles(cap & tony jumped from 2012 to 70s).
That too without the need of quantum tunnel they can travel anywhere
Cap is not going to other branches timelines,he went to past points in prime timeline to return stones to prevent the occurring/splitting of any timeline branches at those points.
They should have mentioned, only for viewers with degree in astrophysics.
Lol heard the whole last season sucked. So glad never started watching GoT.
You mean degree in quantum physics.
Read the books,just like LOTR & Harry Potter movies,the books are much better.
Reminds me of this
.....
Thanks bro. More concrete info here-
My interpretation, could be wrong.
AVENGERS: ENDGAME Writers Explain How Two Captain Americas Existed In The MCU At The Same Time
I will leave the other queries as there is no definite answer but this one is easy.Stones power is too much for any human to handle so any solution for this is not possible.Hulk survived because he is not exactly human(& as per comics,his hulk power has no limits as it depends solely on his anger which itself has no limits) & Thanos was already established as the most powerful being in the universe(GOTG 1 movie Ronan's henchman quote).
