Gem sounds like they were something shaped, something created. Stone makes them sound very primordial and natural.

It fits with the idea they're the very stuff of the universes.

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.
It doesn't have to be the SHIELD, just an organization of heroes, protecting, training, developing, that sort of stuff. I feel like T'Challa has the responsibility, experience, influence, and power to properly lead such a thing.

But who knows, maybe Avengers 4 will end our universe.

I’m not the Russo’s biggest fan, but I don’t think they’re stupid enough to reintroduce SHIELD or have Cap or T’Challa run it.

Also it’s going to be weird to watch Captain Marvel and see her palling around with super-nazis.

Yeah it's weird how everyone's ideal ending for Cap is to reunite with the woman who nazified SHIELD.

Honestly if they throw Cap back in time he should be dropped in the same room with Hitler and his final shot in the mcu is a freeze frame of him punching Hitler out reenacting his first cover.

A real hellraiser


Cap stands at his own grave, pulls out a gun and is about to blow his brains out when Howard Stark fires a gun into the air, he's old as gently caress, in a wheelchair, behind Cap.

"How could you possibly be alive?!" Cap shouts.

Howard waits a beat.

The entire group of original Avengers should die at the end of 4. It’s the fulfillment of their promise. And clears the slate for the next group of heroes. Let their sacrifice be the necessary step to bring back everyone from the Snapture.

I don't think Cap needs to die, but the idea of a Cap who just quits is just bizzare. It's nice to think about, but it really doesn't fit the character.

Killing off all the original Avengers would feel really arbitrary, but that wouldn't be new to the MCU.

Ok, let's say he is sent back in time to be with Peggy, that doesn't mean he has to "give up" as if there was no conflict between WW2 and the NYC invasion.
That being said, what could/would Cap be able to change with the knowledge of the future he has? In theory he would stop Hydra from infiltrating SHIELD, save Bucky from becoming the Winter Soldier, and possibly even convince Howard to stop producing weapons and be a better father....which I guess would undo Iron Man altogether.

What else?

Well in my scenario he uses the Gauntlet to go back but preserves the timeline. It's a paradox but God can do whatever he wants.

So I've read a few posts that make it sound like Thanos halving the universe tapped the stones, I don't think that is the case. I thought the gauntlet getting all hosed up was just a physical representation of the immense power being used at that one time. I'm sure he'll show up with the Gauntlet just fine and the stones just as powerful as ever. Am I wrong, or did I miss something?

I think the implication of the Gauntlet blowing up is that The Snappening was his "big" move with the stones and that it's exhausted.

He was still able to open a portal afterwards and the final scene shows that the Gauntlet is still holding the stones, but it is charred and cracked.

My only grievance with that is that he would be allowing Nazis to thrive and his best friend to be tortured. He can change some things without running everything but most poo poo would play out differently. I'd just like a movie to actually account for all the potential changes to the future and Marvel Studios have surprised me plenty so far.

Wait, Wanda and Pietro wouldn't develop powers.

So in the test screening cut of Deadpool 2 prior to reshoots, word was that all the members of X-Force except Deadpool and Domino are quickly killed off as a gag. I wonder how much that changed in the final cut, given the poster and marketing.

Maybe Cap should appear to have died, then the post-credits scene cuts to Cap-Wolf howling at the moon, then Doctor Strange 3 or whatever is about Strange teaming up with Thanos (who I imagine would've come back to life and reformed by that point) going on a road trip to find the werewolf Captain America.
