Avengers 4: Endgame (Joe & Anthony Russo April 26, 2019) Movie • Page 89

*emerges through Doctor Strange portal* I just saw Iron Man 3, literally a minute ago. It's a great movie.

 

Even if it makes sense in the story, visually it was jarring. Not just technically, just the whole aesthetic didn’t age well. Especially seeing how those movies look now.

 

dunno if this has been posted already, but Joe Russo recently gave an interview in China answering a bunch of questions about Cap coming back, the timeline stuff, etc.

Reddit link to the (translated) Q&A:

 

didn't realize it was going to embed the whole thing lol

 

Sure, crazy to think it came out almost 7 years ago. Watching stuff from around that time is jarring in quality lol.

 

Thiss. I was hoping that Nebula would be the one to take him out after everything he did to her tbh

 

I was totally joking about the oxygen thing at Thanos farm btw

 

Interesting. So he says that Cap lived his life with Peggy in an alternate timeline but then fails to explain how TF he came back to our timeline without the use of the quantum pad

 

I'm not trying to say that intellectual conversation isn't important or that it can't coexist. I'm more speaking from my own personal experience and feelings. There are also so many people who will belittle others for their opinions because of they believe themselves to have a more objective, logical view of things. I personally just don't give fuck about picking apart this particular film, but power to you if you're enjoying yourself!

 

Saw this yesterday and still thinking about Thor playing fortnite tbh

 

I mean, why would he need it? I honestly don’t know it’s purpose.

When Cap and Tony jump from 2012 to the 1970’s they didn’t need a pad. Nobody lands on a pad when they arrive back in time in the first place, and nobody uses one to return to 2023 or whatever year it was.

Was that one way to enter the quantum realm? Yes. Is it the only way? No. Both Scott and Janet have gone quantum without a pad or entry point.

Was this answered in the movie? No. I gues there is just enough inconsistent with it that it’s not a problem to me. Plus these answers pretty much back all what I thought about the time travel stuff. Hell yea.

 

I think the most unbelievable thing about this is that they seem to be suggesting people will still be playing Fortnite in 2023 lol

 

tbf Thor is old af so he'd be into old memes, he just discovered Grumpy Cat and fucking loves it

 

Yeah very good points there. It's definitely inconsistent. Like, remember at the end battle when they made a big deal over Scott and Hope needing to turn on the Van portal to send Thanos back? But yeah, in the end, I really can't be too bothered by it. Still loved the movie, and time travel has problems in pretty much any story.

 

Haha yea... okay, actually. Why were they trying to get to the van? Just trying to get the gauntlet out of there?

 

So they could toss it into the quantum realm

 

Doesn’t really solve the whole army in front of them though. But that was it, I’m sure.

 

I'm not saying there were no inconsistencies because I wasn't paying attention as much to that part of the story, but my understanding was you needed a portal to leave, but not to return. Thus the van at the end, even though everyone else came back after their time jumps without a portal?

Again, I could've missed something huge on this front but I was so swept up in everything else that it didn't matter (for me).

 

I read an article today that confirmed Cap went to a different reality to live with Peggy

 

The logic is so much "whatever these current characters do won't effect the current characters or current timeline" and I think that makes sense, Nebula can kill her past self and not disappear. But by that logic, did they not absolutely fuck over the other timeline versions of themselves?

Captain America has to live with the knowledge that he got his ass kicked by a doppleganger and suddenly shield members are saying Hail Hydra to him, that's going to get SLOPPY. One of the infinity stones is just now missing with Loki. Tons of other instances I'm not thinking of right now.

Modern Avengers are just like "not my problem got my family back fuck you"

 

From my understanding, yes.

 

They kinda explained away "main Cap's" actions when past Cap said he found Loki. They'll probably just assume Loki was the one that said "Hail Hydra" disguised as Cap. But yeah, Loki escaping with the space stone is definitely a huge shift though

 

For all we know though Cap retrieved it from him when he went to fix the timelines

 

I was going to say that this is what made me so mad about Thor stealing back Mjolnir, but now I'm thinking that Cap returned it since he didn't come back from the past with it.

 

Or it’s being used as a very handy paperweight back at Peggy’s place
