Marvel Cinematic Universe - Timeline (Part 5)

I know you have done a bunch already but here is my preliminary take on times. At least if just for reference or starting point for the last episodes. After this episode I would still stick with my claim that the hood put together the team within the year aka 2025

*Tentative placement - Hottest day in Chicago 2025
**Placement for now

If you have seen my timeline before, I use dates until stuff is solidified with dates or just months in which case I dumb it down. This will probably get looser after the hottest day occurs so dont take it that my dates really mean anything - other than how many days occur during or between episodes in my opinion.
 
Just got done watching the rest of ironheart and I really enjoyed it tbh much better then I was expecting

Btw here is my timeline placements:

Ms.Marvel S01E01
Ms.Marvel S01E01 Mid-Credits Scene
Ms.Marvel S01E02 - S01E06
(16th September - Early Oct 2025?)

Thor: Love and Thunder
(between 1st and 9th October 2025)
(2-3 days pass for main events)

Thor: Love and Thunder Post-Credits Scene
(Concurrent on 2nd/3rd day)

Thor: Love and Thunder Mid-Credits Scene
(Day after film ends)

Ironheart S01E01 - S01E06
(10-25th October 2025)
(4 days pass by the end of ep6 main events since the end of ep3)

Ironheart S01E06 Mid-Credits Scene
(few days after ep6 but still in October because of the October flyer in the window my guess is before Halloween)

Werewolf by Night (31st October 2025)


So here is my working out for each episode

Ep1. = 10-12 Oct 2025
Ep1. Ending = 13th Oct
Ep2 = 13 Oct 2025
Ep2 Epilogue = 14th Oct
Ep3 = 20-21 Oct 2025 (tunnel heist was last week)
Ep4 = 22-23 Oct 2025
Ep5 = 23-24 Oct 2025
Ep6 = 24-25 Oct 2025
Ep6 ending = Late October/Early November 2025
Ep6 mid credits = between 26 & 30 October

Not sure whether Thor should go before Ironheart Ep1 or in the week gap between eps 2 and 3 really depends on Jane's cancer Diagnosis 6 months ago line

Could be between 1-9th October 2025 or 14- 19th October 2025

I'm gonna be honest, any of the 1 second flashes of Riri's childhood isn't gonna be timestamped. Those are internal memories technically too.

Episode 5's is also a hologram, not a flashback.

so personally id say:
- may - september - montage of riri from end of wakanda forever until she is suspended from mit (classes start 09/03/2025, so i assume this is when they waited to not extend her grant; then around two weeks back in chicago before the first job, a few days before parker kills stuart on 09/22/2025; then early october for episode 3 ("hottest day in october" from john) - the earlier the better for hotter weather anyway - with the rest of the series stretching into mid-october, with the post-credits being in november at the latest; i didnt notice snow, which typically starts in chicago in late november
 
from the wiki discussion thread:

At 35:04 of Karma's a Glitch, Rampage's autopsy report lists his death on 9/22/2025 at 2:30 AM and signed by the County Medical Examiner on 9/24/2025.

Thats not enough to give exact days for Ep 1-2. Eric Andre got yeeted between 2 and 3, which is a several week time jump- plus investigation into that can last weeks.
 
Then wouldn't that mean that it happened in 2010 and not 2008?
I think Iron Man is set in 2010, Iron Man 2 is set in 2011, six months later, as stated in the movie, with The Incredible Hulk and Thor in Fury's Big Week. The Avengers, which is set in 2012, Fury mentions that Destroyer attack in Thor movie is set a year earlier, which is 2011. It makes sense to me.

That is not what the Timeline Book says.

Be thankful I am the one doing this timeline because I am not going to be so easily swayed into ignoring said book in favor of a news blurb.

I know that, but the timeline book didn't pay attention when they made the book, they ignored lines from the movies, like, 6 months later (Iron Man 2), a year earlier (Thor). Officially, Iron Man takes place in 2008, but it doesn't make sense to me, but I respect the timeline placement.
 
The complete line about Obadiah Stane's dead in news is ''who tragically died in a plane crash more than 15 years ago.''

Ironheart take place in 2025, so using 2008 placement for Iron Man, Stane died 17 years ago by the time of Ironheart show.

Technically the news anchor does say "MORE than 15 years ago" so she's still right. I'm sure the line was a product of the show originally planning to release in 2023 (or 15 years after Iron Man's release). The timeline book and actual movie both feature 2008 evidence and I don't see any reason to throw that away over this.
