So I'm watching Civil War right this second and Vision says during his equation that it had been 8 years since Tony Stark had announced himself as Iron Man.
Which would fit in real time (2008-2016). Of course this movie has Spider-man in it and Spider-man Homecoming is set not longer after, just a few months I think.
In that movie though it's established that it's been 8 years since The Avengers events. Meaning the Avengers would also be set around 2008.
Which then of course would have to mean that Iron Man, Iron Man 2 and The Avengers all happened in the same year.
That doesn't seem like it should be possible.

Do you really think four years passed in-univers between Iroman 1 and The Avengers? We know they didn't. Ironman 2 takes place less than a year after Ironman 2 and Thor 1 happens almost immediately after Ironman 2.

It would have to be within the same year. You're right that Thor would happen around the very same time as Iron Man 2 but then there couldn't have been much of a gap between Thor and Avengers either. |

Well, to be fair, there doesn't seem to be a huge time gap between Ironman 2 and The Avengers. Of course, if there are issues with the timeline, I'm hoping that its the "consequences" of messing with time that were discussed in Doctor Strange.

I don't concern myself much with the MCU timeline based on film release dates. Not when IronMan, Hulk, Thor, & Captain America have films to get through prior to The Avengers. I don't fret thinking why were the other 3 of them hanging around idling while the other's film year was current.
It probably would've been best not to quote the years at all.
Along that point - I saw TR this week (really liked it) & re-watched Civil War earlier today (because November blahs can diaf). I feel like Thor Ragnarok can take place nearly simultaneously as Civil War & the end of Guardians 2. Each of those 3 films (+ Black Panther to come) will pretty much be meeting together for Thanos' arrival n'est pas?

Iron Man 2 begins with Banjo watching on TV Stark saying he's Iron Man. Then it cuts to 6 months later. So Iron Man 2 would be 6 months after Iron Man. Which means The Avengers has to be within half a year of that movie. |

I just found a comment from Kevin Fiege in an interview, Thor 2 was supposed to be 2 years after the original but Feige said that it was a year before the events of The Avengers that Thor was in New Mexico. So The Avengers would have to be a year after Iron Man 2. Which in turn would mean Spider-man Homecoming would have to be a year after Captain America Civil War. Which if you weren't technical on it actually being 12 months, then maybe Civil War was at the end of 2016 and a few months later Spider-man Homecoming was at the beginning of 2017. Then it's still count as 8 years. Then it would kinda still fit. It probably is just confused somewhere. |

They should probably just release an official timeline and get it over with to clear this up. But yeah, at least the first potential major MCU screw-up is just muddling the timeline a little bit.

I think they do intend to. I'm sure even though it'll be problematic going by things said it shown in movies before but at least it would be official. |

True, but at least we still know the order everything happened in. |

This might be bad timing on my part, but I just got back from JL, and I would gladly trade a simple typo for a good film.

I posted an article a month ago which gives a good explanation of how the MCU timeline is shattered to pieces: MCU's Broken Timeline.
No MCU is going to come up with a new timeline that'll retconn most of the previous movies. Ragnarok already retconned every movie that Hulk was previously in by making Hulk able to from complete sentences and have extended conversations when he never said more than 10 words in any of in previous movies.

If it was eight years ago, we could restart the DCEU, and actually make it good

He's not usually insulting people that's why. Just saying things that usually cause insults to come his way but I can't really do anything about that because he's technically not doing anything wrong by mentioning Hulks speech inconsistency. |

Someone who's intentionally looking for a fight isn't doing something wrong? Just about any school dean will tell you otherwise. |

You threw the first insult and he didn't even respond to you. Now you're continually arguing about it and derailing a thread about the timeline. At least half his comment had something to do with the timeline. There was no problem here until you just made one, again. |
