All they really have to say is that it was part of his travels of returning the stones, and he knew he was needed then. It could be a one off appearance or it could be a whole re-introduction. Or it could just be the "real" Steve Rogers from that timeline, not time traveling Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theJ Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I'm not going to make a big deal out of this, but i'm rewatching Endgame and realized that Tony was born in 1955 in these movies. That makes him 53 at the time of Iron Man, 57 at the time of Avengers, and 68 during 90% of endgame (after the 4 years has elapsed). I get it's a point we're supposed to ignore, i just think it's kind of funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time of Endgame's filming, RDJ was 53 years old (55 now) so that was just about perfect. In Winter Solider we find out that his parents die in 1991, when he was 21, which fits about perfectly with the dialogue in Civil War in the BARF simulation.

Everything i'm finding online says 1970, specifically April 1970 with Tony's listed birth date as May 29, 1970. I'm pretty sure they show 1970 on screen when they show the car that has Stan Lee driving (plus I think he's driving a Mustang which didn't start until 1965) and the way every one is dressed is late 60's, early 70's garb. In 1955 it would have been much more conservatively dressed, especially on a military base. Edit, just watched the scene (thanks Disney+), he specifically says zero four, zero seven, one nine seven oh Edited May 15, 2020 by THE DUKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course that just makes Howard 53 when he has Tony, and 74 when he's killed. Which is also a little odd and funny, but not outside the realm of probability.

For the movies, all i'm concerned about is the MCU timeline. I wonder what they will do when this inevitably gets rebooted. Start over again around 2008 in the storyline? Adjust the story for when Captain America was a solider? I don't know, but I doubt we see a full reboot for a good 10-15 years at least, so i'll just enjoy the ride for now.

Deadpulse Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Comic timelines are meaningless. You can't read comics and start thinking, wait how old is he? Shouldnt he be so and so by now? Time moves in strange ways, best not to analyze it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natalie Portman seemed done with Marvel, and she's going back in a big way. There are also rumors she might return to Star Wars in some way as Padme. Never say never.......I've especially learned that as a wrestling fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure Portman's big beef with Marvel was she didn't like the way the character evolved from the first movie to the second. I'm not shocked she was lured back by what is essentially a co-leading role with Hemsworth as opposed to just being the plucky love interest.

I thought it had to do with the female director being let go from the second movie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
