Current Events > Are the next MCU movies going to take place *Endgame spoilers* too?

(+) Yeah! (+)

5 years in the future too?

some

for the most part, I think, with the exception of prequels like the Black Widow movie
---

Yes. Unless it's a prequel, the movies are by default now 5 years in the future

I think it's an unnecessary complication that they did not have to introduce. But here we are

Are you joking? Everything being reset would've been the most boring and disappointing way to end this arc.

Well that Black Widow movie aint lol

Black Widow is a prequel and Eternals is rumored to take place way in the past.

They could have done something different. It's just gonna make things overly complicated for the future

In the comics, it ended in a total reset . The time jump was invented by the movie. The comic story all happens in like one day or something

Including Infinity War AND Endgame. Thanos comes, snaps, gets beaten and snap reversed all in like a single day

Either they explore impacts of Endgame/Infinity War, which is interesting, or they ignore that, but in that case what year it actually is doesn't really matter.

I guess we'll see how the world changed in that timeframe

I hope the one and only result of this is that Miles Morales is old enough to become Spider-Man.

Everyone told me far away from home was a prequel. What happened to all those people?

IIRC, the time jump actually moves them into 2019. Before that, I think the movies were lagging behind real life.

i bet there will be a movie or two taking place between the end of IW and endgame.

hell, they could make captain marvel 2 end with her appearance at the end of endgame and consulting with fury at the funeral.

Add five to the number at the end.

Not like everything is meaningless in the comics.

The changes with Nebula alone if they followed closer to the comic would have been crazy.

I'm actually not familiar with comic Nebula, what do you mean?

nope. Endgame ends in 2023. I expect phase 4 to slowly catch back up to realtime.

The Infinity Gauntlet storyline has Thanos torture Nebula and turning her into a barely living being.

After Thanos turns off his cosmic awareness to flex on the Avengers, he stops paying attention after the battle when he takes a rest, and Nebula steals the gauntlet.

Nebula restores herself completely with the gauntlet, and proceeds to get her revenge on Thanos torturing him and trapping him in space.

Saved by Warlock and Strange they lecture him on his flaws and then return.

Thanos goads Nebula into rewinding the universe to the previous day (as it would undo what he did with the gauntlet) which also brings back her damage, as she restores herself once again beating back Thanos, Warlock steals the gauntlet, eventually dividing the gems between six people he picks (after being called unworthy by the cosmics, and Strange telling him trying to remove negative emotions would be taking away humanity from people) because you can't destroy the gems in the comics.

Nebula is taken into custody but feels simultaneously conflicted as she in some ways got revenge on Thanos and is now at 100% health but at the same time didn't fully claim revenge against him.

I'm a bit displeased we didn't get to see a healed Nebula, and she doesn't get anything close to revenge against him in the film, or really any interaction at all.

And Thanos realizing his whole philosophy was completely wrong and ending up farming, I prefer more as an ending than losing to just being essentially outmuscled rather than his flaws playing into it.

Those people were always wrong as one of the first things confirmed about it was that it was after Endgame.

Holy shit shut the fuck up, especially about the comics. Theyre interpretations/adaptions, not complete retelling.

It makes sense for the MCU and allows them to have a power vacuum for 5 years to bring people like Norman Osbourne, etc like what they did for Spiderman Homecoming. Battle for New York (Avengers 1) directly influenced that movie.

The five years is ridiculous for future storytelling though.

There's no way countries could handle their populations suddenly redoubling like that, and not to mention the grief and changes during that period.

You can't really skip over that for the future.
