Correction: For a fraction of a second, the screen of the phone reflects something dark green. There is nothing to indicate this is a green screen and not just an unseen part of the room. It is certainly not the bright, saturated green of a special effects green screen.

Corrected entry: In Edinburgh with Wanda and Vision there are no people on the streets or the station. Edinburgh Waverley station opens at 5am - if it's early enough for the station to be closed then there'd be people staggering home from clubs, etc., especially on the high street, and if it's late enough for everyone to be home and off the streets, there'd be at least a few people in the station running the place.

Correction: They never specify what day of the week it is. Sure, on a Friday or Saturday there would be a few people about, but on a weekday they likely wouldn't. Plus, the few people around would likely run away when a superhero fight broke out nearby.

Corrected entry: If Gamora knows that Thanos needs her in order to get the soul stone because she is the only one who knows where is it, she should stay away from him in order to avoid being caught, but she decides to go where he is.

oswal13

Correction: She knows it's a big risk, but she feels it's her duty to prevent Thanos from gathering all of the Infinity Stones. This is why she makes Quill promise to kill her if Thanos captures her on Knowhere. Had she known that Thanos had captured and was torturing Nebula and that he knew that Gamora knew where the Soul Stone was, then she probably would have stayed away from him.

Phaneron

Corrected entry: If Thor knew that Thanos would be waiting for the stones on Titan he should have gone there, instead of somehow knowing to head straight to Wakanda.

oswal13

Correction: Thor didn't know Thanos went to Titan. He correctly predicted that he would head to Knowhere, after which he would likely go after the 2 stones on Earth.

Thor heard from Thanos that we will be go to Titan inside the ship or at least he should go to Knowwhere not to the earth.

Thor's new hammer gives him the ability to summon the Bifrost, which means he has to survey his intended destination before creating the portal to transport. He very well could have surveyed both Knowhere and Titan (assuming he even knows where Titan is) before settling on Wakanda, but that would have both wasted screen time and diminished the impact for the audience of him arriving in Wakanda to help the other heroes. The movie even shows Thanos arriving on Titan after Thor already arrived in Wakanda, so we can surmise that Thor didn't know where Thanos was located and settled on joining the battle on Earth with the hope that Thanos would eventually turn up there.

Phaneron

Correction: The movie never says that Thor knew that Thanos was on Titan. He knew from the first scene in the film that Thanos sent the Black Order to look for the two Stones that were on Earth (one of which ended up going to Titan with Doctor Strange). He simply used his new powers to summon the Bifrost to survey Earth and located his friends and the Mind Stone in Wakanda and teleported there.

Phaneron

Corrected entry: When Ebony Maw fights Strange and Wong, they send back the spikes and hit Maw on his face on the left side but he gets the wound on his right. (00:22:55)

oswal13

Correction: No, if you look closer you'll see the spike hit the right side of his face which means the continuity is on track.

Correction: No. It's there. Note the strap on his shoulder.

Correction: The strap is there. Look again.

Corrected entry: On the Asgardian ship Maw ties up Thor with some metal pieces, even on his mouth, but that patch disappears between shots.

oswal13

Correction: No it doesn't. It sometimes looks that way because in the distance you don't see his chin/neck area. But that's because of the distance. But, it is always there. Remember Maw didn't tie up his mouth until Heimdal died. So there was some time between when he was restrained and the deal.

Correction: Seeing as how they were able to locate Vision and Wanda in Scotland earlier in the movie, the stones most likely give off some signature that certain individuals can track if they are skilled enough. Thanos, for example, knew at the beginning of the film that two of the stones were located on Earth.

Phaneron

In that case Thanos could know where was the stone of the soul but he didn't, why he didn't use that skill then?

Thanos had already been in possession of the Mind Stone before he gave it to Loki. The Soul Stone had been hidden for years and no-one had ever claimed it.

Unlike the other Infinity Stones, the Soul Stone cannot simply be possessed by anyone that finds it, as they have to sacrifice what they love to gain it. Given that, it makes sense that it would prove difficult to locate.

Phaneron

Or they could have tracked the Quinjet they flew with the entire time.

Correction: He has a shield on each hand when he hits Thanos. It cuts away and they next time he is seen he has only one. It doesn't disappear suddenly, he removed it offscreen.

Corrected entry: When Ebony Maw attaches Strange to the wall, they are upside down but Ebony's hair doesn't react to gravity. (00:23:05)

oswal13

Correction: Maw was using his telekinetic powers to hover above the ground and be upside down. He likely used his telekinetic powers keep his body, hair and clothing in the same state to make it easier for him. You can tell this by the way his hair kind of floats when he is attaching Strange to the wall, compared to when it rests normally when he is right side up.

Casual Person

Correction: As shown in at least two other films in the MCU, Thor is able to conjure his costume magically. He can "take it off" and "put it on" at will, and it will appear or disappear within seconds.

TedStixon

Correction: Yes, because getting the mystical axe regenerates both him and his costume, just like retrieving Mjolnir in the first Thor film did.

Corrected entry: Strange could easily have used his powers to cut off Thanos' arm with the gauntlet on it as he did with the giant henchmen.

oswal13

Correction: As Strange mentioned to Stark before the battle with Thanos, there was only one outcome out of over 14 million in which the heroes would be victorious. Whatever path Strange set the others on to victory involved not doing a number of things he could have tried against Thanos that seems like they should have been obvious to try.

Phaneron

Correction: The portals can not be opened around the limbs of people. The only way someone would get their limbs cut off is if they put their limb in the portal as it closes. Which is what Cull Obsidian (giant henchmen) does as Wong closes the portal.
