Not sure why people keep thinking that the sacrificed people for the Soul stone are stuck somewhere and can be freed? They're dead. We see their dead bodies laying on the ground where they fell. The Soul stone requires a sacrifice, nothing says the person sacrificed is saved somewhere.

As for the question about the Time stone and Dr Strange....that thought had not occurred to me, but now that I think about it, the stones ARE gone. Though the Eye of Agamotto was not Dr Strange's only power. He has plenty of other mystical powers. That one just gave the ability to turn back time.

I suspect it's safe to assume that you aren't Christian/religious?

A soul and a person are separate entities in this respect. The person dies but the soul lives on....somewhere.

The soul stone is like that in the comics, which is the source material

Hahaha....that's kinda funny since I am Christian.

There was nothing in the films to suggest that the person goes in the Soul stone. That's all I was trying to say. Might be in the comics, not sure.

I think that is where we are missing the boat...

An alternate timeline can not merge into a prime because of the butterfly effect. Now if Cap was always supposed to go back and time and marry Carter under another alias then yes Cap grew old and was able to show up at the end of Endgame [/Nerd debate]

In the Russo brothers' NYTimes interview, they said they talked about it to several quantum physics guys and they all said time travel doesn't work like you think. Back to the Future got it all wrong. So butterfly effect? Who knows.

Something that's always bugged me. How and why is Hulk sent to the Sanctorum at thr start of Infinity War?

No tradebacks on the Soul Stone return. For all intents and purposes, Black Widow is dead. Yes, you could go pluck a Black Widow from another timeline, but in doing so you may ensure that that timeline's Snap is never reversed, and trillions die.

Well, technically, you could snatch her from the alternate 2014 since that Thanos is dead. But then you would basically be kidnapping her from her friends in that timeline to fill a void in your own.

Sine poena nulla lex.

Thinking about going to see it again tonight, in IMAX this time. Worth it?

I was startled to find out that quantum physicists believe that the film that best represents time travel is Bill & Ted.

If you have the capacity of time travel you can will events into existence. Like saying thursday 0600, may 9th 2019 mooretrucker will put $10M on his bed. If you have the capacity to time travel, you can make that happen in the future to affect your present.

Likewise Bill and Ted returned all the historic figures back to their time coordinate as to not interrupt the timeline...just as the inifinity stones were returned to their place in history.

One glaring issue is mjolnir. Thor took it out of the timeline and brought it to the thanos fight. It is out of the timeline.

I have also suggested that they make a film where Captain is restoring the timeline including hunting down Loki and the space gem. But heres the fun bit: cap still has infinity stones and the God of Mischief has the power to warp anywhere at anytime.

I assume Cap returned Mjolnir when he went to Asgard.

he did, it was on the jump pad when he left 2023

It's a joke about Endgame becoming the #1 movie, which Avatar currently is.

I mean, it doesn't sound like he got the joke though. Avatar is current #1 - hence, the current girlfriend.

I think we're all winners here.

If that's what you want, just go on a Friday or Saturday night.

Though, I did notice a bit of dropoff in the audience reactions from opening night to Friday night.

Which makes sense, the biggest fans are there opening night.

I saw it at 11:00 AM on Saturday opening weekend and people were going nuts for the last 30 minutes or so

I'm not sure if it has already been mentioned on here. But I would have loved to see a scene between Cap and Red Skull.

wasn't that exciting due to Red Skull feeling a sense of loss so he started hanging out with Thor and Capt. America spending his time as a married man which infringed on his gym time.

Sine poena nulla lex.

So who is this Roger Wardell guy (tweets above that were correct back in December)? Seems like a leak in the MCU offices somewhere. Surprised that guy hasn't been silenced yet...

Maybe it was discussed on another thread but I didn't realize that Red Skull wasn't Hugo Weaving anymore and had been replaced by the guy that plays Aaron in The Walking Dead.
