Maybe Steve found a replica of his shield on theRPF. If so, then Sam will have an unhappy surprise during his first battle with it when he realizes it’s made of aluminum and not vibranium.
Avengers: Endgame (Post-release)
- Thread starter Vivek
- Start date
It's impossible to keep track of all the fan service moments. I was just thinking about the photo of skinny Steve on Peggy's desk. I knew it must've been the same photo from CA:TFA, but I just thought it was as good a photo as any. But today I thought about it in the context of the story - that it was the exact same photo Peggy pulled from his file at the end of the movie, and is probably the only photo she has of him.

I particularly liked the fact that it was that picture, because it reflects him as he was when she actually started to fall in love with him. There were probably TONS of pictures of Captain America she could have kept, but the one she kept, and obviously cherished, was of the skinny, sickly kid from Brooklyn who didn't know how to back down from a fight that needed fighting.

I haven't seen every MCU film but...
Cap is the biggest reason I stuck with these movies.

I wonder why time travel was such a big deal? Peter Quill already owns a device that can see into the past, it was used in the first scene of GOTG. Seems like it was a normal thing for him to have. So, obviously some form of time travel tech is already there. I know he was taken out in the snap, but still....

That always struck me as more of an augmented reality map system. Likely old high detail survey or "security camera" footage, extrapolated and projected using your position so you can get your bearings, and follow old roads, tell where buildings used to be, etc. It even had the location of the orb marked in it, if I recall. That wouldn't be something a "time viewer" did. That seems more like someone took a map, and put a marker on the map, then had a Gizmo plot your course to the mark.

I was just watching this yesterday and noticed something. In the final battle, where is everybody and everything else? Its like as soon as Thanos attacks, all of a sudden, Avengers headquarters is out in the middle of nowhere. There are no people or buildings anywhere around.

It kind of IS in the middle of nowhere.
The timeloop thing was in the big, long building in the upper left, which was at least partially levelled by Thanos' initial volley from his ship, and the below screenshot shows that other buildings were also hit pretty heavily. Add in the rest of the fighting and few, if any, of those buildings are probably standing, much less safe to enter.

That does seem like a much better(safer) place for everyone that allows a bunch of superhuman people and advanced tech suits and weaponry to train than say… Midtown.
Also more peace and quiet lol.

Ok, how about this one. How does Thanos of the past get to the present? Evil Nebula would've had to use good Nebula's Pym Particles to get to the present when everyone returned. Then Evil Nebula just turns on the time machine and Thanos comes through. How? He didn't have any Pym Particles. Did he? Am I missing something?

Who is to say, with the galaxy at his disposal, that it was hard to copy the formula and make more? Sorta works both ways....just saying rare on earth doesnt mean rare for him.

Think of it this way, it took til 2022 to devlop ozempic. If you took that to another company with 0 work on the process, how long would it take that company to figure out the composition and make more? Not very long. The hard part is figuring out how to get there.
Joe Russo explained it in a interview
“There is a guy called Maw in his army; he was a great wizard. Thanos himself was a brilliant genius as well. Those two easily reverse engineered, and mass-produced Pym Particles.”
I can’t find it but I also remember him saying nebulas memory’s helped with the reverse engineering
