@_justNoble The hammer’s enchanted, so it wouldn’t just rip his arm off mid-turn ... it would politely course-correct like a very judgmental GPS. The self-fetch theory still slaps though. Worthiness probably includes “don’t become a cautionary tale.”
Thor doesn't actually have the biological power of flight; he just spins Mjolnir really fast and throws it, holding onto the leather strap so it yanks his body through the air. He is essentially playing a permanent game of fetch with himself. If the hammer suddenly decided to turn left mid-air while Thor wanted to go right, would his arm just pop out of its socket?
@chiidex277 Hive mind theory is the only thing that actually makes this work. Eddie never knew Peter, but that goo has definitely met a Spider-Man somewhere. Either that or Marvel just wanted the Tom Hardy cameo and hoped we’d all shrug and move on ..
If a person benefits from a system for long enough, they can start experiencing the system’s advantages as evidence that the system itself is fair.
They don’t have to consciously defend it.
Their own experience keeps giving them reasons not to look too closely at what happens to people who don’t fit into the same position.
There’s something about that Vision footage in the Endgame Encore trailer that caught my attention.
At first, I thought Marvel was simply bringing back a familiar face for nostalgia, then I started thinking about the timing.
Why remind audiences of Vision now?
We already know his story isn’t finished. We know he’s returning, but Marvel hasn’t told us exactly how far his story will connect to the larger MCU.
And that’s where my theory starts.
What if Marvel is quietly reminding us of Vision because he has a bigger role waiting for us?
Imagine Doomsday arrives and Vision suddenly becomes important to the conflict, carrying memories, information, or something connected to the Avengers’ past.
Maybe I’m connecting dots that aren’t there.
But if Vision becomes important to the next Avengers story, this little trailer moment could look very different in hindsight.
Would Marvel really bring Vision back into the conversation this early for no reason?
If Doctor Strange’s spell only pulls in people from other universes who know Peter Parker is Spider-Man, why was Electro brought into the MCU?
Max Dillon died in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 without ever discovering that Peter Parker was Spider-Man. As far as he knew, Spider-Man was just the guy behind the mask.
So what exactly triggered the spell?
Did Electro somehow learn Peter’s identity after his death?
Or does Doctor Strange’s explanation of the spell not fully describe how it actually worked?
A knight can survive a battlefield. Surviving being fully seen is harder.
“The bravest thing he ever did was take the helmet off and let her look at what the war had left.”
After the siege of Greyford, Sir Caelan would not remove his helm even at table. Lady Isolde waited until the fire burned low, then simply held out her hands. He placed the dented steel in them. She did not flinch. That was the night he stopped being only a knight.
Would you stay if they showed you the part they hide from everyone else?
