Been watching several of the older movies again after seeing Captain Marvel and a few questions came up.

Is Yondu Kree?

How did Hydra acquire Loki’s scepter at the beginning of Age of Ultron?

I see The Ancient One and Crossbones are cast to appear in Endgame. Any ideas how that’s going to plat into it.

What happened to Lady Sif? They just write her out because the actress is busy with Blindspot?

Do you think Valkyrie, Korg, and Mick show up in Endgame.

It was given to SHIELD which was rogue to Hydra.

So this most likely would have happened during the events of Winter Soldier.

No. He is a Centaurian.

You have to love the proliferation of so many Wikis

How Hydra got the Scepter is shown in a comic prequel for the Age of Ultron film. LINK
quote:

Avengers: Age of Ultron Prelude - This Scepter'd Isle is a comic set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is set before and during the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

quote:

With the Battle of New York concluded, the Scepter that was used by the Asgardian war criminal Loki is given to S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists Nicholas Cooper and Mark Smith for study. Smith, who abhors his scientific position, is approached by secret HYDRA leader Wolfgang von Strucker to join HYDRA, which is working within S.H.I.E.L.D. Accepting Strucker's offer, Smith steals the scepter and kills Cooper, bringing it to Strucker's facility in Sokovia, a European country embroiled in constant conflict.

Nope. He's Centaurian

Because Hydra had infiltrated SHIELD. (See Winter Soldier)

Flashbacks or Time Travel.

Is he in the comics or just a character written for the movie.

The Russo's confirmed she did not survive the Snap.

The Russo's neither confirmed nor denied their survival saying it would be "too spoilery" to say.

I guess the snap is a super convenient way to explain away characters. She wasn’t in Ragnarok either so I’m sure there is more to it.

Ragnarok was actually a scheduling conflict, but she would have been killed along with the warriors three if she had been there.

Along with many others. Korg was one of my favorite characters in Ragnorak. He stole the show for sure. Im deseperately hoping he finds a way back and was not killed off after Thanos wrecked shite on the Asgard ship.

Valkyrie was just ok. I liked her character. But it wouldn't hurt my feelings if she didnt appear in another MCU movie.

I could have sworn I saw a photo from the set of Endgame with Tessa Thompson and a few other women from the Marvel movies in it -- like she was with Karen Gillan, Brie Larson and Evangeline Lilly. But I don't see her name in the cast list on IMDB.

I think Valkyrie might be the person who rescues Tony Stark/Nebula from outer space. I thought the first time Captain Marvel appeared in the Avengers would be to rescue Tony, but I don't think that will be the case.

With James Gunn not involved anymore does the Adam Warlock pod appear in future storylines or just become destroyed when Thanos took the Reality Stone from Knowhere?

Yes. But only once. I know that the race in that film isn’t canon and was created for the film. So the pod was just one of them then I guess.

But like I said I’ve only seen it once so I could have missed a ton of stuff. Was not one of my favorite MCU films.

No. He was a Kree slave (mentioned in GOTG2 when he and Rocket were locked up together)

Shield would have had it. Since HYDRA had infiltrated Shield (CA-WS), it is likely they stole it. They probably replaced it with a fake. Wouldn't be a bit surprised to see this fleshed out in Endgame if the plot plays out like I think it will.

Yes.

Yes. I think that's even been mentioned.

Crossbones died in CA-CW, so he'd have to show up in a time-travel capacity (or, in the Soul Stone).

Yep. Has me wondering just how much time travel and how far back they might go in Endgame.

With Skrulls officially introduced in CM, will they reveal any non-superhero secondary characters as being Skrull?

Probably not because of the memory thing is my guess but just a thought.

Good question. Would have made more sense if the Skrull’s were the actual bad guys in CM. Kind of like a 2nd Hydra infiltration.
