Now that the film is finally released across the globe fans are able to freely discuss it. Obviously, there are MAJOR SPOILERS below in the article so do not read beyond here if you have not seen the film yet. many fans have already started to point out major potential issues with the time travel paradoxes, especially in Captain America’s final scene. But there is also a huge glaring mistake right there on screen in the final battle.
The climax of the movie is a titanic battle between Thanos and the massed forces of the Avengers.
It is a truly jaw-dropping spectacle, the screen packed with almost every important hero from the entire MCU so far.
In fact, one of them appears twice in two different places at the same time. No, it’s not tricky Doctor Strange, nor has Loki miraculously managed to return.
It is not an illusion or alternate dimension or time travel versions of the same character, it is simply a rather big mistake.
Pointed out by the clever folk at the Movie Mistakes website: “In the final battle, Wasp and Ant-Man are in the van trying to get the quantum tunnel operational. We cut back to the fight and we can see Ant-Man there too, fighting in his giant form.”
Given the staggering complexity of the enormous battle scene, one slip-up is completely understandable.
Fans have been far more concerned about Captain America’s final trip into the past to marry Peggy, protesting loudly on social media about how it is a betrayal of Peggy, Bucky and the entire established timeline.
In a rare move, the directors have actually explained how it is possible.
If Cap goes back and remains in this direct timeline (as evidenced by his reappearance on the bench as an old man), it would erase Peggys’s husband and two children and mean Steve Rogers lived a happy life ignoring the decades of suffering he knew was being endured by Bucky.
In a new interview, the Russos pointed out Cap has been in an alternate timeline and only jumped back across at that final scene.
A jumbo-size Ant-Man is a little harder to explain away, but not at all hard to forgive and forget in the greater scheme of things…
