Thanks for the reply. First, I didn't hate the movie, but I can understand why you would think that based on my post. I think it's a great super hero movie. I also just happen to think it sucks from a time-travel-movie perspective.
I'm fine with Captain America staying in the past, I was just pointing out that others seem to have an issue with that.
Hey, thanks for explaining the Widow/Hawkeye space travel issue, that was a huge issue I had.
I think a another big issue for me, was that, with a 3 hour running time, I would have liked for them to explain their time travel rules/theories a little better. A little more trial and error would have been nice. (I mean, if your movie is going to spit in the face of several other time travel movie, it should be explained and shown VERY well, IMO).
"Cap returns all the stones back to the moment they were taken".......So they say, but I have ALOT of doubts and questions about his ability to do that. It took several teams of Avengers to go get them in the first place, and now Cap alone is going to return them all? He's going into Asgard, alone, and going inject Natalie Portman?
Anyway, Thanks again for the reply, and for clearing up at least one of my issues with the movie.
I thought the time travel aspects of this film were absolute garbage nonsense. I'm shocked more people haven't complained about it. I'm shocked that most critics gave this film their stamp of approval despite the time travel issues.
The main time travel related gripe that most people seem to have an issue with, is Captain America returning to the past to live with his former love. This was the smallest of the issues I had.
For example, time travel is not the same as space travel. How in the world did Hawkeye and Black Widow travel across space to retrieve the soul stone? Neither owns a spaceship, or knows how to operate one.
How do they know killing Baby Thanos won't work without testing it first? Science is about trial and error.
According to this movie, changing the past just results in creating/altering other timelines/realities. So, They're messing up multiple other realities to save our own? Not exactly a heroic thing, and pretty damn selfish really.
