I could take the role. I respect your work and DIRISHB's work so much, and I want it continued to the best of my ability. My only problem with this is breaking things down minute by minute and so I will need some help. Otherwise I want to be as helpful as possible.
I accept all the help I can get. Like this thread, I would be happy for it to be super collaborative
I don’t think they copied Disney +, I think they’ve been involved with it since the beginning and the book is just a reflection of that.
I always just went with the therapy session being around the movie’s release date of May 2013. Disney + placing it after The Dark World made me consider it could potentially be late 2013 or early 2014, but now it’s clear they see Iron Man 3 as 2013. I think the problem is that during production they have an idea in mind like Iron Man 3 in 2012, but later on move from it. Like Eternals. I believe 100% the original intent was for it to be Fall 2023 since it was originally going to be the first “Present Day” movie coming out after Endgame. However, with the Covid delays causing Shang-Chi to release first, they pushed it to Fall 2024. So far, Iron Man 3 is the only placement I have issues with, and even then I get why they see it like they do.
Spooky...
I could see them doing something similar (most likely unintentionally) with The Falcon & The Winter Solider. I’m sure they’ll want it released around Brave New World, so an April-May 2024 date wouldn’t surprise me.
I would but I am already swamped with other timelines and other irl stuff.
I remember a bit of everything did a video where he reconstructed a timeline from scratch without using any hints from Disney plus, and came up with something very similar, just by focusing on particular pieces of evidence.
I'm so confused. You want to stop working on the timeline, but you want to start a new one?
"this place isn't about rewriting the MCU Timeline as we see fit, it's about making it the most accurate to what it is."
But there's logic behind choices made for this book, just because there's more logic behind one argument doesn't mean the other argument isn't logical. And again at the end of the day were aren't the ones that get to choose which of the two is going to be used when moving the MCU forward, Marvel Studios is and this is their official placement. If one is truly unlogical absolutely I say we don't hold to the book. But if there is reasonable placement behind one of the porjects, like how some have pointed out IM3 or Eternals could be moved without breaking the films logic. Obviously we should wait for the book to release but dismissing it this early is a very egotistical thing to do
I agree. My point is logic trumps everything. The best arguments + evidence should be our standard. Not a book written by fallible humans!
We are also fallible humans, and unfortunately the best argument is "because Marvel Studios says so" and as long as there is evidence behind it as to why that argument is made in the first place it should be at the very least considered. This fictional universe is also made by fallible humans, not every single detail will line up with every single project, especially one as large as the MCU. Logically there will be contradictions and continuity errors and if we try to force the MCU around something we see as logical but Marvel Studios does not see as logical we're the wrong ones.
I can't agree with that last statement because it makes Marvel Studios appear to be infallible when they aren't'!
