fanfic: Peter Parker calls Thor ‘Mister Thor’

A lot of the movie was changed due to test audience reaction (the deleted scene where Odin was there to see frigga die was cut for this reason), And this sort of romance where people amicably break up is a very nonstandard narrative, so I don’t think it tested well.

If you wondered why thor compares himself and jane to the convergeance, a cosmic phenomenon that only occurs when things align just right, and then passes? I think it was foreshadowing them being compared to the classic definition of starcrossed lovers. Together for a moment, but doomed to eternally be pulled away from each other by the universe.

Loki: The mindless beast, makes play he’s still a man.

Hulk: puny god

*screaming*

It’s the best timeline we fanfic authors could have possibly asked for:

Loki escapes with the Tesseract for parts unknown

Steve learns Bucky is alive two whole years ahead of schedule

Tony now has to rethink keeping the arc reactor in his chest and might get it removed much sooner

Thor, now without Loki, the Tesseract or even the Mind Stone, cannot return to Asgard empty handed, which means he will have no choice but to stay on Earth and bond with the other Avengers while they all search for him

Steve is supposedly loyal to HYDRA, which could lead to important information being slipped to him and speed up Bucky’s rescue

If JARVIS was still uploaded to Stark Tower and keeping tabs on everything like he always is in the IM movies, he more than likely has footage recorded of future!Tony sneaking into the tower and dressing up as a guard, future!Steve entering the tower while Loki is still in custody proving that he wasn’t just Loki in disguise, and Loki grabbing the Tesseract and gtfo'ing outta there

Bruce Banner now has a connection to the Ancient One that he doesn’t know about, and while I’m sure she’ll try to avoid him to preserve the timeline, with how much everything else is changing it’s anyone’s guess as to what happens next

Random street camera footage of two Hulks existing at the same time??? One acting as normal and the other being oddly unenthusiastic about ripping the aliens apart and smashing debris???

The Mind Stone is no longer in HYDRA’s possession, so they can’t use it to experiment on the Maximoffs

With the Loki series still on the horizon and our collective knowledge of what happens in the future movies, the story is now in our hands.

This is literally the timeline of our dreams. I don’t give a shit what the Russos or anyone else at Marvel says: this timeline belongs to the fandom and no one else.

Edit: @ everyone reblogging this and laughing in victory about Wanda being gone:

you’re not allowed here you asshole

just for that, here’s a solution:

This one was hard to make fun of, because it already made fun of itself so well (which is why I love it). Still, where there’s a will, there’s a way. 

You lack conviction

For years Coulson’s answer seemed to me to be devoid of any real meaning, only the answer of those who want to have the last word. Since it was clearly stated by Marvel that Loki was under the influence of Thanos in ‘The Avengers’, I think that Coulson saw far away and Joss Whedon sowed in the film endless clues to make us understand.

The time he was found worthy

It did not matter. Loki hauls his unconscious brother onto his back and to safety. Picking up The Hammer was an afterthought.
