Since Endgame is probably one of the most anticipated films we've had here in a while, let's quarantine all discussion from those who have seen the film (or who have otherwise read spoilers). If you don't want to see stuff get spoiled, stay out!
(And this will likely be the last time I view this thread until Friday, so if you need me to put something in the OP or similar, shoot me a PM. I won't read posts in here.) [Reply]
So, when Cap is sitting on the bench as an old man, did he actually come back from the previous timeline to that point?
Yep. He went back, spent life with Carter in a different timeline, then eventually "warped" back to the "prime" timeline. It sounds like they're leaving the door open to tell some stories from Cap's time in the "past" at some point. [Reply]

I would guess in the past he did things a lot different seeing as he had so much more knowledge about Shield, Redskull, etc.
Would be interesting to hear.
Theoretically, in his previous timeline Black Widow would still be alive and well too. Hell, i'm wondering why he would even want to come back. He could have stopped all the things that lead to the Avengers but that would have left his new timeline unable to stop Thanos, so maybe that's when he decided to pull the cord and come back to this reality.

I had wondered about that, but I think you can explain how he'd do it pretty easily. Basically, the space stone can let him teleport just about anywhere, so he pretty much just needs to use that one to return the ones that are off earth and then return the space stone itself toward the end. Mission accomplished.
I'd definitely be curious to see how it went down though. If they ever do get him to come back, that could almost be a movie in and of itself. [Reply]

I was meaning more because of who was there giving "instructions" about the soul stone.
But it seems the quantum realm allows them to travel around to different places pretty easily. [Reply]

I think that's what led to the Russos talking about Cap in that alt-timeline. It was a question about how Cap's interaction would go with Red Skull. [Reply]
Exactly 11 years ago to this day, audiences were first introduced to @RobertDowneyJr's IRON MAN in the film’s theatrical opening, and thus began the ever-expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe... pic.twitter.com/I0Q8oQeV0N

Not as interesting as him having to "stuff" the ether back into Natalie Portman...:-) [Reply]

thats the only way time travel is possible as we currently understand according to Einstein’s theory. But, that speed faster than light is not possible either. So who knows? [Reply]
As THR reports, Avengers: Endgame has already made $1.785 billion in its first week of release, easily giving it the fifth spot on this historic list. That pushes the 2015 film Jurassic World and its $1.764.3 billion down to sixth. The new total comes after a Thursday earning of $121.4 million globally, a total that most movies would kill for on an opening weekend let alone a Thursday night. [Reply]
