Odin's quest for the Infinity Stones would make for a great prologue (Thor 5?). Unlike Thanos, Odin couldn't sacrifice the one he loved for the Soul Stone, as it would bar them from entering Valhalla, so he abandoned his thirst for power and became one of the universe's greatest protectors.

[@MarkHougaard]

From Infinity War, "the soul stone requires a sacrifice... you must lose what you love." Not "who" but "what", not specifically a loved one/person. I believe it could be a person or quest or oneself, etc. Ultimate self sacrifice. Yes, the quote does go on to "a soul, for a soul," so I could be all wet.

[@andscifi]

It could be fun. Though I think the ScreenCrush theory was that Odin used the stones to create that test so he wouldn't have needed to sacrifice anything because the test didn't exist until he made it. It's even possible that he made it that so that he himself couldn't get the soul stone since he knew he wouldn't sacrifice that which he loved.

Bifrost (rainbow bridge)... A rainbow has multiple colors. Multicolored infinity stones... Physical manifestations of aspects of the universe.

I like this theory, yet it annoys me when Odin, and asgard are barely looked upon with any great respect, considering the respect Odin apparently had in the universe being called the all father, having had at least 2 infinity stones(that we know of) and the interactions he and thor have had in saving the universe, yet The grand master had never heard of them, and in omnipotent city, no one recognised him, and Zeus barely acknowledged Odins death with any respect, considering how relevant the bifrost seems to be in accessing eternity. The mistake they made was in the first thor, making the events with the dark elves and borr only a couple thousand years ago, and then thor saying to surtur, "didnt my father kill you like a million years ago." Also making zeus the oldest and wisest and most powerful was a mistake, when Odin clearly had more wisdom and demanded more respect and fear from his enemies. Where as zeus was a joke and showed little wisdom or strength, in comparison. The mcu is all over the place, when it comes to stuff like this

Honestly like this theory a lot.

Would just be cool to learn more about what they consider canon because I like a lot of this theory.

[@ryadinstormblessed8308]

Agreed. Would have been awesome if they'd hired Neil Gaiman as at least an advisor for mythology insight and how to tie it into modern stories. Aside from his amazing novels, American Gods and Anansi Boys, he also wrote a book on Norse Mythology which was fascinating, funny and very entertaining.

[@TheBaBaTV]

It has to relate to the comics at least , this isn’t mythology … remember these are marvel characters still and have their own thing… mcu didn’t just add mythology for shts, these are actual characters ! So it has to correlate to the comics !

[@ryadinstormblessed8308]

@@TheBaBaTV To _which_ comics exactly? Since when does long-term continuity matter to comic writers? Over the decades, every comic series has multiple story arcs, often retelling or retconning previous arcs, or just ignoring them to tell other stories without bothering to answer which of the origin stories or continuities is relevant to a current arc. But in the case of the Thor and Asgard comics, yes they've always had differences from the mythology, but always been more-or-less based on and paying homage to the mythology.

This would also explain why Loki’s scepter, using the Mind Stone, didn’t work on Tony in Avengers 2012 when Loki tried to control Tony’s mind. One infinity stone was countered by another. The mind stone couldn’t overpower Tony’s synthetic Space Stone.

[@EggShen905]

We really need a theory on the MCU's cosmology, in terms of which groups of immortal, timeless beings are a higher or lower orders than other groups. Are Celestials more powerful than whatever Eternity is? Can the Infinity Stones defeat Celestials? Are Asgardians (and Greek and Egyptian gods, etc) more like men, or more like one of these higher order beings? Can a lower order being become a higher order one? Are their multiversal versions of each Celestial/Eternity/etc, and if so how does that effect their various existences? So many questions. And in the Marvel comics there is actually a One-God type figure, an inscrutable being that rules over all of the above in every multiverse, though no one knows anything about him. Of course the MCU likely won't bring that into play, but it's there if they really want it.

[@gabriel51366]

The One Above All was considered to be Stan Lee, or Jack Kirby. Powers of the universe top to bottom: Tribunal - Eternity, Infinity, Chaos and Order - Galactus - Celestials. The Stones have the power to destroy the Celestials, but would require someone far more capable than Thanos(movie wise, not comics) as the Celestials would likely be prepared to stop him. Also, the Stones cannot affect, nor work in other universes. Hence in the drawer in the Loki series.

[@spiderhamilton1]

This theory is absolutely brilliant although it kind of falls apart at the end there with the leaving the door open and the death of Eternity idea. (Seriously, Secrets Wars is becoming your Mephisto) The only holes in it are the timing of Odin gathering all the stones while Bor's still alive and Thor's lightning powering Stormbreaker's lightning. I think finding the space stone was Prince Odin's first great quest and Odin didn't go searching for the remaining Infinity Stones until after Bor's death and he became king. And how does Gorr use Stormbreaker's bifrost if it is powered by Thor's lightning? I say it isn't Thor that powers Stormbreaker's bifrost. The original bifrost was built by Asgardians and drew power from Asgard but Stormbreaker was designed and created by the dwarves millennia later and they are much better cosmic engineers than the Asgardians. Stormbreaker is self-sustaining hence why Gorr could use it. Also, I believe Odin enhanced himself and others with the Infinity Stones before he split them up again. Hence why he, Hela, Thor and Heimdall all have greater powers than the average Asgardian. Frigga and Loki and others had to learn magic for their powers. The average Asgardian just seems to be virtually immortal and superhuman physically, like Sif and the Warriors Three. Odin could have just empowered himself and it passed down to his children Hela and Thor, and granted Heimdall his power (from the space or soul stone) which we see he passed down to his son.

[@RJ1J]

This is interesting. What gets confusing in the MCU is that amazing powers are sometimes linked to stones or weapons, other times they are abstract and 'just there' with no real explanation. Case in point when Heimdall asked the Asgardian gods give him the power of the Bi-frost to send Hulk to Earth (That annoyed me a bit, seemed like a plot contrivance). How did that happen? Before then, he needed the huge contraption. So where did that energy come from? Are these gods in Valhalla? Are they intervening. They certainly massively help in Infinity War. I wish there was a little bit more explanation in the MCU about this issue, like this video (Which has a few mistakes you pointed out) . How and why are special powers granted, used, obtained and what is their source? Was Thor exposed to the space stone like Captain Marvel? And how/why is a power granted and used in different ways (Which is what Ryan is trying to figure out partly).

[@spiderhamilton1]

@@RJ1J In the Avengers, when Loki and Thor are talking on the rock before the fight with Iron Man, Loki asks how much dark magic did Odin call upon to get Thor back to earth. Heimdall called upon the "dark gods" to open a bifrost. Those dark gods and dark magic could be the 4 entities that created the Infinity Stones that we saw on Morag that include Eternity. Or the dark gods/magic could be from outside our dimension like Dormammu in the Dark Dimension. In the comics, Those Who Sit Above In Shadow are entities sort of worshipped and invoked like gods by the Asgardians so the dark magic/gods could be them.

I think it would make sense that the Space Stone was in the possession of the Asgardian Kings for, possibly generations. I don't think everything has to come back to Odin though, alot of these points could be things that were established by earlier Asgardian Kings like Bor. I will say its weird that they are going out of their way to retcon (possibly) the godly status of Asgardians, in the earlier videos they were not real gods, but just advanced and powerful aliens, but now they are gods confirmed, but they are not immortal like other depicted gods, and bleed red blood while all the other gods we see bleed Gold, and only the most powerful of Asgardians appear to disperse into particles when they die, while all the other gods we see die do anyways.

That's the very best theory you made my friend : )

If stormbraker is powered by Thor how come the bad guy (don’t remember his name) use it to eternity’s door ?

Well it could be part battery too, storing that energy for when it's needed.

Gorr the God Butcher….but to answer you question, I don’t know that’s a good question! 👍

[@djphat1736]

AWESOME!!!!!! Love this. Great job man!

[@rachagainstthemachine.]

Great theory's. Only downside is alot of Odin's supposed visions of the future happened after his death, and as you stated the Time stone won't let u see past your own death. So Odin couldn't have set up things like imbuing stormbreaks mould with the space stone coz he wouldn't have known about it. Unless of course I missed something.

[@Ked7]

He knew something bad was coming after his death hela so that is what it was made for

[@blackirish2073]

I guess to answer that question we would have to know who Thor was talking to during his fight with Helena was it Odin or just Thor's subconscious

[@SpFlash1523]

But he did theorize that Odin already had Stormbreaker (in concept) for the Dwarfs to make, ever since Thor returned the tesseract to Asgard, especially since Thor was eventually going to be the King of Asgard, hence "a king's weapon."

[@gigachad1939]

I think Odin knew that Thor might destroy Asgard in order to defeat hela, losing the only source of accessing the bifrost. That might be the reason he made sure that stormbreaker could summon the bifrost.

[@mississippiparkers]

@@gigachad1939 Odin told thor and loki of the prophecy, so Odin knew it was coming. Maybe he had used the time stone to see what would come, like strange did?

[@caliq7900]

Wow that was great! I love this and hope it to be true, great work on your part!!

[@BYERE]

The ironic and contradicting factor about the theory that Odin was controlling everything after viewing all the possible futures so that the "perfect future" would come to pass... is that it WASN'T him controlling it. It was He Who Remains, as established at the end of Loki. His power over the TVA and making sure the Sacred Timeline came to pass was what was controlling the future, NOT Odin.

[@apolmedrano3914]

Yeah but Odin didn't know what was gonna happen next, they all felt like they had free will. For example, Dr. Strange with the whatever million different outcomes vs Thanos. He thought there was multiple ways, he didn't known that the sacred timeline willed their win.

[@BYERE]

@@apolmedrano3914 Exactly. I'm not saying the theory that Odin had the Infinity Stones or was trying to make everything happen in a certain way, but that despite whatever he would have done, it would all have been because of He Who Remains. HOWEVER... that does bring up the question of whether Eternity and the like are ALSO being controlled by He Who Remains. Did they come before him, as they were there prior to the creation of the stones and thus the beginning of all time, or has his control over time become so absolute that He exists BEFORE the likes of Eternity and the Celestials and such, and are controlling all of their actions too?

[@Ked7]

@@BYERE no eternity and the othe seven are not controlled since chaos magic caused him to lose his grip on the timeline and why no one went there before

[@krtadjordje]

@BYERE okay, but, what if, he who remains, every time when manipulating time ( when it comes to celestials, eternity or, even Odin ) couldn't quite succed because while he was doing it, every time he wanted to manipulate something while Odine is alive, Odin would have seen it through the time stone ( not "he who remains" but the events and changing of the structure and consequences ) so he would then counteract and slide it to his or Asgard and Thors advantage? It's quite a mind vreaker and twisting paralel and multuvers WTF, but, it's kinda what it would be. Its not Dr Strange looking through time stone its legit GOD ( big G ) who evolved ( lost an eye for gaining wisdom, hey maybe because interactions with troubles "he who remains" caused whilist Odin was alive time ), who ( if we take this theory as a canon ) stroke a deal with eternity, embodiment of the universe...and he who remains how much he can manipulate time can't be stronger than eternity. Don't forget eternity made universe, and therefor made "the time" as its part of functioning. Soooo This theory is cool, and really true to the MCU we've seen so far

[@gabriel51366]

@@krtadjordje Eternity did not make the universe, he was born as the universe from the cosmic egg that spawned our reality. From the egg came space(Infinity), time(Eternity) and entropy(Death). Also, later in the MCU, they'll introduce the 4th, Galactus.

[@Titanicwasaninsidejob]

My dad and I have said for a long time that Thanos waited for Odin to die. And the Fake gauntlet in his treasure room was always because other beings thought Odin to still have the stones- from a time when he did seek/ collect them.

I love Thor I mean Thor the character this last movie just way too much comedy can we ever get a really action movie serious fate of the world Thor movie 🤷🏽‍♂️ is my point I watch The Gray Man last night on Netflix the Russo Brothers are just absolutely amazing I felt like I was in the theater the action was absolutely amazing Chris Evans gave just enough comedy Not over the Top I thought he played his roll well as the psychopath mercenary but my point is it was a better movie than Thor I mean can I get the Russo Brothers to give me an epic Thor movie where the accident is just absolutely crazy like it was in this movie and the suspense that existed with the twist and turns did existed as well that's all I wanted to say have a nice day

[@tnoudy3524]

This is exquisite, my guy. The theory so good. I think it’s marvels actual plan.

[@Jasmin-lg3gf]

You say one cannot see further than one's own death, but afterwards you say that Odin saw things that happened after his death. You have to decide which theory you use, you can't do both. You also say at first that the Bifrost is created, but at the end you say that it is summoned. Again, one thing is wrong here. I'm assuming you don't create the Bifrost, just summon it. In addition, the center of the universe does not necessarily have to have been built by Odin. Otherwise good video.

[@Ked7]

Um once something is created it is then somends. irl example the internet was created, now we use or summon it.

[@Jasmin-lg3gf]

@@Ked7 Yes, but let's take your comparison. A simple computer is enough to use the Internet. In order to set up the Internet, however, you need an incredibly large infrastructure. Bifrost requires an Infinity Stone, this incredibly powerful axe, or something similar. What do you think it would take to create such power in the first place? It's more likely that the Bifrost was a part of the universe from the start and Odin just summons it.

Hi. Mutants are born with the x gene. People who are mutated are different. Deadpool mutated not mutant

[@teovu5557]

MCU is mostly influenced by the Ultimate line of marvel comics not 616 comics. And in the Ultimate universe Mutants were the results of outside mutation and experimentation. Even in the 616 comics they retconed the mutants to being experiments by the celestials anyways....lol

@@teovu5557 I know I was just saying this because he said that mutated people are mutants. Also ultimates are still just mutants since everyone that is a super isn’t called a mutant. Meaning something is still inside to begin with.

[@SamSilk]

In the comics, Thor isn't the son of Freya but rather the son of Gaia (well, up until recent revelations). Eternity could be his real mother in the MCU and he could have been made by his father as a weapon from the beginning.

[@craigwilliams1073]

Yeah it makes sense, Thor was absolutely nonchalant about telling Gore to take his wish! He knew, Thor knows more than the movies are portraying!

This theory as a 4 episode miniseries ahead of secret wars would be so good. Basically like Rings of Power but with Younger Odin and infinity stones.
