You guys are making the same mistakes that have been made in previous timeline threads - citing dates and elapsed time that were not established in the movies.
If you can introduce something, actually seen or heard in one of the movies, that would be helpful. Otherwise, it’s just pointless chatter that only serves to derail the thread and attract trolls.
My current timeline takes into account the 4 year statement by Ross in WS, the reasonable assumption that SMH takes place a few months after CW, the 8 year statement by Vision in CW, the 8 year title card in SMH, the 2 year statement by Falcon in CW.
Here are some further guidelines to aid in a productive discussion.
1. The MCU timeline is assumed to be intact until a preponderance of evidence indicates otherwise.
2. Acceptable evidence is a quoted statement by a character or a description of something seen in the movie. Do not say, “the Avengers was set a year after Iron Man 2” without the evidence from one of the movies to support it.
3. Periods of time mentioned in the movies are assumed to be rounded to the nearest year. When a character says 8 years, it is reasonable to conclude that the actual elapsed time is somewhere between 7.5 and 8.5 years. It is unreasonable to conclude that all events occur precisely on the anniversary of previous events.
4. It is assumed that character recollection is accurate, within the margin of error mentioned above.
