I think the Russo brothers stated that when Hulk returned everyone with his snap, a stipulation was everyone was brought back safely on land. So that means nobody was brought back in mid air, or no fisherman were returned to a boat that's no longer there, nobody was returned in the middle of an highway, intersection, etc.
That explanation is very convenient, but whatever, I'll live with it.

However, that doesn't negate the fact that when the snap happened everywhere, airplanes fell out of the sky, helicopters fell out of the sky. Cruise ships and all other kind of boats were stranded at sea, thousands of car accidents everywhere. That led to a mass casualty event within itself. Those people weren't brought back imo.

Then once everyone was finally brought back, realistically, the world would have fell into a depression. Many people would be homeless, jobless, etc. There were hundreds of thousands of property disputes worldwide. Alot of this wouldn't be solved civilly. People snapped back into a home that someone else lives in now. Pew pew.

I think the Flagsmashers could have been done so much better. Their cause could've been made very relatable. Millions of people all over the world who are pissed that they've lost their job, house, car, boat, property, business, etc. People all over the world could unite over their frustrations related to this. But instead, I their cause was very confusing the entire time. In fact, I still don't understand what was their intentions or goals exactly. None of it made sense.

Should have treated reversing the snap like wishes on dragonballs.

"Bring back everyone Thanos dusted... except the evil ones"

All plot holes covered.

All except one.

How did Hawkeye know to keep his wife's cellphone charged five years after she was snapped?

I watched infinity wars last night, or at least the end fight scene. There was a helicopter that crashed into the side of the building in front of Fury and Hill in the credit scene teasing Marvel. That had to have collateral damage from that, people had to have died.

I know people love to tear apart these movies end to end for years but these popcorn type movies can't be thought on like that. They are shiny objects for fish to go after. Enjoy them and don't think too hard.

There are people that still have voice messages from dying occupants from the World Trade center because that's a way they can still hear their departed loved ones. That's not a stretch on Hawkeye.

This whole topic is what makes the race discussions in Falcon & Winter Soldier kind of silly.

Half of all life disappeared and then reappeared due to a battle between an army of superheroes and an alien God....yet people are still worried about race issues?

I suspect they were, but gutting the pandemic storyline killed the continuity of the story. I suspect this series was initially supposed to be at least 8 episodes.

A better question is, "How do we take any of the stakes seriously in future Marvel films when we know the heroes are capable of turning back time whenever they have to?"

Are you saying she left voice messages on her own cell phone? And that he kept it charged while he had gone rogue when he was running around the globe killing bad guys? Also, didn't everything on the person dust when they dusted? Did her cell phone dust with her? If so, why did it still have a charge?

Regarding planes, 1/4 of all commercial aircraft in flight would have lost both pilot and copilot. That's a lot of plane crashes. Add to that half of all private aircraft with a single pilot. Not to mention motor vehicle drivers, surgeons in the middle of operations, etc.

I mean, are we assuming that airlines weren't grounded when gigantic alien ships from other galaxies were invading Earth? Seems like as good a reason as any to ground all places and air travel. So essentially, there may have not been any planes (or very few) in the air at the time of the snap.

Also, if the person with these stones can literally control reality and all of space and time, it stands to reason that they could bringing people back in a safe manner for everyone involved.

This is true.

However, you would also have to assume that at some point some military, of any country other than Wakanda, would also intervene to help fight off the Thanos.
