StarTalk Podcast: Neil deGrasse Tyson on Avengers: Endgame

[@ScreenRant]

Great episode as always! Thanks so much for collaborating on our video Why Captain Marvel Should Have Dominated Avengers: Endgame! kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4atZaSZmduEmJI

I want to learn your time traveling abilities

[@LeaderOfTheLostSouls]

Screen Rant The problem is in the MCU Quantum Entanglement isn’t apart of her powers and it isn’t official. Like there’s some issues, It’s debatable if she is even stronger than Thanos if you don’t go off random science that isn’t officially used for the character and never were apart of her powers. If you go off feats, scaling, lore, and such it’s a close fight but she isn’t FAR stronger that’s factually wrong. Captain Marvel’s Powers came from the Space Stone vía the Light Speed Engine which is why she can go faster than light even her Photon blasts are light speed, the reason she was overpowering Thanos is more likely to do with the fact she can absorb energy and her powers came from the Space Stone canonical which made it so she could hold Thanos down and take a headbutt since before he could grab her and throw her aside, not to mention this is after Thanos fought Iron Man, Thor, Worthy Cap, And Scarlet Witch who damaged him, broke his armor, and knocked away his sword so he wasn’t at his best. But she would still be very even with him and could possibly overpower him especially if she can Amp herself by absorbing energy. Yet honestly Scarlet Witch was more impressive, with her powers she can destroy the Mind Stone and she can completely overpower Thanos breaking his sword and armor almost killing him. She just isn’t physically stronger or more durable. Just had to point some stuff out from a scaling and feats view which is more concrete than using science which wasn’t used in the movies and isn’t apart of her powers.

[@matthewwoods632]

Gearie Bowman True. Additionally, Thor is not one of these perfectly incorruptible gods (ahem Wonder Woman); he has grown immensely across his character arc. He lives with losing his powers, earns them back, handles loss in an imperfect way (retrieves his hammer from an alternate timeline), and has his shortcomings (Thor Lebowski).

The time machine in endgame sends you back in time, creating a different timeline but it returns you to your own original timeline, and not the future of the timeline you created. That's why you can interact with yourself without causing a paradox.

[@tasarasforever]

But Captain America went back in time to his own timeline at the end of Endgame. Because he never turned back like you said.

[@chrispork2597]

I appreciate that you lead into your breaks like they do on TV. It's less jarring that just letting the ad interrupt

[@DTG_LOCKETT]

This a video recording of a radio show that has commercials. KZbin has an algorithm that recognizes points in a video where ads can be placed so when he stops the conversation flow for where there was a commercial on the radio show the algorithm places an ad. It's probably based on the same algorithm when CDs were still fairly new. Back then you could record an entire concert as one mp3 file and most CD burning programs could break it up into tracks based on a lull in the music or a beat change. The problem with ads in most videos is the video doesn't have a big enough lull for the algorithm to find so it uses the length of the video. The flaw in the old algorithm was if a song had a beat break the program inserted a track change that you would have manually remove before you burned the cd and it's probably the same issue that you run across on KZbin where a thirty minute video has fifteen ads because it had fifteen lulls and no one manually remove the extra ads

"The strongest metal on earth and the humans make a frisbee"

[@pattheman3686]

interesting little fact: Vibranium is NOT the strongest metal earth. it may very well be the most "powerful" in terms of practical applications (as we've seen in Black Panther - the stuff is in everything they use from clothes to eating utensils) But there is one metal that is far more durable AND "physically" resistant. I believe the reason it's never been mentioned is due to Marvel Not owning the rights to X Men until now. Can y'all guess what metal I'm talking about?? Yep Adamantium. Adamntium is far heavier and denser than Vibranium and in the origins of Captain America ( the true comic origins) his shield is truly unique because it is the ONLY ONE of it's kind. an alloy of Vibranium AND Adamantium. So it has the properties of absorbing kinetic energy and the added bonus of beinf far more durable than ANY other object made from Vibranium. Fun Fact: if Cap's shield had been Adamantium, Thanos would NOT have been able to tear it apart.

[@ahmedgalal305]

[@bharatsurya9017]

[@jemal999]

@@pattheman3686 Actually, considering how it acted, it's quite probable that Thanos' blade was a Vibranium-Adamantium alloy, and thus would have been able to destroy an Adamantium shield

[@pattheman3686]

@@jemal999 That "could" be a possibility; we KNOW that Vibranium is not native to Earth, but so far no mention has been made of Adamantium "EXCEPT" in X Men Origins, but I do NOT count that as MCU official history. Besides in Origins They nd up going to Africa for the Adamantium; which is where the Vibranium meteor hit. But then there ARE metals in the cosmos that are just as strong, if not stronger than both Adamantium and Vibranium. Uru for example is stronger by the very fact that it's made from Dwarf Star material, which is Extremely heavy a simple house key made from Uru can weight up to hundreds of pounds. So in effect Mjiolnyr wasn't just unmovable because of the enchantment Odin paced on it, but it was heavy because it was made from Pure Uru metal.

Sahil Dalvi yeah, just cause they say that’s how time travel would work that doesn’t mean in theory it would work, by going back theyve already made branches, when he goes back again there are some more branches, As soon as they interacted with that world, it already got branched off and also they stated that going back in time doesn’t change what has already happened, so as he’s went back in time to fix the problems, that still doesn’t fix the branched off time lines as ‘fixing’ something cannot work as they’ve stated that going back does not change the future, so as them futures are already in affect as they’ve changed it, they cannot be undone The future where Loki escapes with the stone, the future where Tony talks with his dad in the past, every action would change something, it would just create more branches. Unless they don’t want to use the butterfly effect to which with regards to time travel is impossible as simply going back changes things straight away, even from the hulk smashing the taxi up, that would then branch things off as things change

@@DaxSassI agree he does seem to have that ability passively and not something he actively is trying to do. i think the bow allows for a style and different ammo types like hacker attachements, mini bombs, and the like. Bullets are probably too boring and limiting for him. in civil war when he says "played 18, shot 18 just can't seem to miss" seems to me that implies it is not something he actively does through insane mental math skills but just something he is gifted with and comes naturally. He can't seem to miss anything unless interrupted mid shooting process. So I feel clint does actually have powers in a sense.

I think they implied the Titan in Infinity War wasn't Saturn's moon as it was in the comics. In the comic, Saturn is uninhabitable as it is in the real world, and everyone lives underground. Furthermore, in Infinity War, Iron Man states while on Ebony Maw's ship that they're 'billions of miles away from home', whereas Saturn is only 1.4 billion miles from Earth. They're likely going to another solar system with a planet of a similar name. Also, Titan has no satellite moon. Yet Thanos threw one at Tony.

Thor is a god but at least in the Marvel universe there are different levels of 'godliness'. He's not almighty, he's not invulnerable. In fact (maybe I'm wrong with this one) he's not even immortal. In the first Thor movie, he got all his powers removed by Odin. In Marvel universe, gods (at least most of them) are not even the most powerful beings in the universe, by far. So I don't think Marvel version of gods are just lazy writing. They are not just a Deus Ex Machina all the time.

ya even Ego who had the ability of controlling matter to create separate entities of his consciousness and life itself in the form of his planet self said as a celestial he himself would only be considered as a god with a small g indicating there are beings out there that warrant a capital G for God.

When the Spartoi were at war with the Badoon J'son crashed on earth and fell in love with Meredith Quill, then had to return to war after a brief interlude.
