Marvel Cinematic Universe - Timeline (Part 3)

You're making up a scenario saying 9/10 doctors could agree smoking is bad. But they don't. And you can keep pointing out your evidence but unless something changes you're not going to persuade people

My point is that appealing to the masses doesn't' make you correct.

I mean, it IS weather, which affects the trees. Also see how everyone is dressed. It's clearly early fall, not late fall like it was earlier in the film.

I live in Kansas, so maybe I'm biased. But I'm used to getting to wear shorts on Monday and then needing a jacket and overalls on Wensday. Weather doesn't always equate to season.

The "timeline" is the film itself.

The film itself is a work of fiction not a window into another actual timeline and as such there are inconsistencies and continuity errors, some which must be ignored to make a coherent timeline across multiple films and shows

I'm not appealing to the masses. I'm just not ignoring the official timeline book for background details. Like I said I'm not throwing out an official source for an opinion even if it's popular

You are though. You are ignoring on-screen evidence in favor of a book that could be wrong. Sure, the film could be wrong too, but you've chosen to go with the book. I choose on-screen evidence (most of the time) over tie-in material. Agree to disagree. Let the lurkers decide.

No I'm going with an official source with a definitive answer instead of following evidence that could go either way. It's either A. Go with the book which has a specific answer or B. Go with the background which could go either way. So if there's a way that point A and B work together it's sensible that that's the correct option.

Again not up to lurkers, this is decided.

Could the book be wrong?
 
Dallas Kinard said:
I don't live in LA so I can't answer that. The scene is supposed to be set in NYC, which is what the story wants to convey, therefore it's irrelevant where it was shot.

It's not irrelevant when it was shot in an area that doesn't produce foilage that would match the rest of the movie and they're not going to go out of their way just to make a 30 second scene look consistent, when as it it looks fine enough. The truth is 99.9% of people don't care about this and you're putting way more thought into it than Marvel did.
 
Starvel said:
Yeah. Could the trees be wrong? Yes. Have trees and weather been proven to be wrong before? Yes. Has the book? No. Process of elimination is a beautiful thing

So both could be wrong? I agree. Therefore let people decide for themselves. It's not "could trees be wrong", it's "could the film be wrong".

Oh please we ALL put way more thought into this stuff than official sources do. Give me a break. This is literally the point of this entire forum, to think about this stuff to death and figure out what the producers don't care to.

The films have been wrong. Therefore evidence can and should be taken with a grain of salt cause a lot goes into production. The book has yet to be corrected or retconed and until such a time as it is it's to be considered correct.
