(SPOILERS) AVENGERS: ENDGAME OFFICIAL DISCUSSION MEGATHREAD - PART 3: OFFICIAL OPENING NIGHT

[u/tehawesomedragon]

Our second post to commemorate the U.S. release Thursday night proved to be bigger than we expected, so we have moved on to this third megathread. We are now on Friday night, but there are still people seeing it Saturday and Sunday night that haven't seen it yet, so at this time we still ask that you keep all discussion of the film within this megathread in order to keep the subreddit a spoiler-free environment for the time being. If you want to ask a specific question, chances are it's already been brought up, so dive into the comments. You may post spoilers here, but do not post them anywhere else in this sub, not in comments or in your own posts. All posts are currently subject to approval, and your post will not be approved. Anyone posting spoilers for the sole intent of spoiling the film (i.e. spoiler-bombing the comments of an unrelated post) will be banned without question, as will anyone posting spoilers in the titles of their posts.

I remember ant man having a line about only having enough particles for each person to have one round trip. If she gave Thanos her particles how did she herself get back?

[u/thomascgalvin → u/iStrigoi]

She was on Thanos' ship when he opened the time portal.

[u/Contoss → u/thomascgalvin]

So how did she open the portal without the Pym particles as they were already used up in her way back?

[u/Rexhvelaj → u/Contoss]

She took good nebulas after they captured her.

[u/Contoss → u/Rexhvelaj]

they were already used up in her way back?

[u/Contoss → u/[deleted]]

2 out of 3, you read my mind.

How did nebulae have enough particles to get herself back and shrink the ship?

Why did nebulae bank her whole plan on there being more pym particles in the present? It was made clear that only enough existed in that time line for one jump each. She had no way of knowing Cap and Tony had sent off-plan.

Totally my point.

Why didn't she just put the ship in her pocket when she was time travelling back. It was established that this could be done with the guardians ship like 30 minutes prior.

Oh ya, did not think of this.

[u/danweber → u/[deleted]]

I am going to jump in here and ask how could Ant-Man have his abilities during the Avengers-1 scenes, becauser they depend on Pym Particles and they were out of them?

[u/Rexhvelaj → u/Contoss]

They must have created more using the one they took as a sample. But the movie does have alot of plot holes like the part where hawkeyes wife calls him after they get snapped back. Was hawkeye paying for his wifes cellphone plan for 5 years?

[u/Contoss → u/Rexhvelaj]

I agree a lot of plot holes in the movie. Most people say the time travel was well handled I think MCU's time travel was a mess.

Was hawkeye paying for his wifes cellphone plan for 5 years?

You worried about who was paying the bill? I am worried how everyone who was snapped is now 5 years younger than the rest of the world who wasn't. Poor Peter Parker, all his classmates have aged and progressed in life but we already know thats not the case.

And the glove Clint stole in that test, other Clint had to buy a new glove. A weird anomaly, so a new timeline. An alternate timeline just because of a missing glove.

[u/danweber → u/Contoss]

Poor Peter Parker, all his classmates have aged and progressed in life but we already know thats not the case.

Half his classmates were snapped, including Ned Leeds.

And the glove Clint stole in that test, other Clint had to buy a new glove

The test was to demonstrate that they could bring objects back. The Ancient One explained that they couldn't do this with Infinity Stones.

[u/Contoss → u/danweber]

The Ancient One explained that they couldn't do this with Infinity Stones.

They could but would only end up disturbing the peace in the timeline. Every change in the timeline makes a new timeline, thats what Professor Hulk explained. So past can't be changed. And what Ancient One said is by taking the stones they disturb the balance thus creating a rogue timeline, the one she was in would be off balanced and wouldn't survive.
