Does the fact that Thanos sacrificed Gamora erase her from existence?

So what is stopping her from being alive in 2014 when she was sacrificed in 2018 ?

Since she is still alive in 2014, why can't she time jump from 2014 to 2023?


Here lies the problem... She's Dead (Current status) as per infinity war leading to endgame ultimately erasing her from the existence so her "2014" self which is the past should be dead as well...Time travel can't reverse death...making it impossible for her to do a time jump from 2014 to 2023 since she's dead in 2018.

Death is inconsequential and not final in the concept of time travel.

If I travel back to 1999, will I meet your younger self or your present self?
I know you will say your younger self because in that particular timeline, you are still young.

Now, why should Gamora not be alive in 2014 when she hasn't even experienced the events leading to her death in 2018?

This can go on and on bro, If she dies in 2018 within the present concept of time travel her 2014 self can't time jump to 2023 except they tell us it occurs in alternate timelines and realities and these interact....she has no future in 2023 if she dies in 2018.
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 4:27pm On Jun 18, 2020
If this theory of yours is the standard guideline for time travel, then there should be no reason to go back to the past because the past might as well be the present.

You are looking at a time as a constant rigid value which it isn't.
Time is ever flowing, go back into the past through one point and exit through another and you will live forever.

You are dead in 2020 doesn't mean you will be dead should anyone go looking for you in 2019.

If you can find a way to time travel while retaining your consciousness, that is the secret to immorality.

The timeline is not linear.


Revisit the scene where The ancient one took Hulk to the cleaners.
It being non-linear creates even worse problems and loopholes. The purpose of the ancient one scene is to reinforce the need for them to return the stones to the past, because the ancient one implied that she needs the time stone to save the world in that time line. Without the time stone, doctor strange wouldn't be able to stop dormamu.


If Thanos doesn't exist in the present, how can he get the stones to disrupt the present timeline.
Duh, if gamora didn't exist in the present, how did she appear in the past and follow Thanus to the present to stop the Avengers?


Or are you trying to tell me that 2014 Thanos will get the stones from the past and travel to the future to redo the snap?
Did you purposely ignore my statement to advance your argument or did it literally fly over your head?

You can't make sense of Endgame's time travel mechanics, they pulled a lot of BS and that's okay in the realm of superhero movies.

I don't have the juice for typing arguments, but answer this question: why the hell is cap' able to remain in a past timeline for so long without altering the events that happen afterwards? And why was he able to meet the same present he left in the same condition he left it having lived out his years in the past? Because that breaks the set rules of their time travel mechanics.

No one can make sense of the craziness of Endgames time travel, the more you think about it, the more elaborately obtuse you find it.

i firmly believe one can't time travel if the said person is dead.

therefore retaining one's consciousness and time travelling is key as you rightly said...one can travel anywhere in time for all time (if "for all time" is even plausible again in this scenario).

However going back in time to meet someone who is already dead in the present and not taking any action that prevents the death in the present but simply doing a time jump past the present where the person dies is a concept that seem too wild and far fetched to me.

But it's an ever revolving world of time travel and researchers are constantly making research into this particular subject matter so i will at "never saying never".

Time travel doesn't exist so there is no standard rule for time travel, the writer can do whatever he/she wants

I don't have to make a single post on a thread in order to report people who break rules. I report lots and lots of posts each day on lots and lots of threads on which I will never make a single post (checkout my activities on the politics section). It's my right and I will continue to do it without apology, just as I will always post on any thread I feel like posting on.

I watched it the minute it came out on YouTube. I wholeheartedly respect Dave's viewpoint on the matter, still, I must say that I shook my head at some of the points he was trying to make or counter.

I understand that emotions are running high at the moment due to that man's death, but the aftermath has been nothing but pointless protests, riots, anarchy, political pandering and celebrity bunking.

Police brutality affects all races.

Part 3

Movies

There were some movies that I watched in the 1970s and ‘80s that I hated with every fibre of my being. Most of these movies got you emotionally involved in their lead characters and took you on great emotional highs, only for the lead character to die in very tragic and gut wrenching circumstances. The only excuse for these movies was that most of them were biopics.

That movie called The Buddy Holly Story (1978) was eventually banned from my house and we laid a curse on anyone that would make the mistake of bringing it to our house again. After defeating adversity in the shape of country music, black music and his girlfriend’s aunt and after going through the breakup of his band and overcoming the fear of performing alone and just when the band was about to reunite, the damned movie ended the way it did. Gosh, it was heart-breaking!

Everybody was talking about this upcoming movie called La Bamba in 1987, so I went down to Cosmo and got the movie (we were members of Cosmo and VideoMart in the mid and late 1980s). The movie was wonderful. . . until I saw Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper in it. At that point I knew how the movie would end. At least I had time to prepare my mind for the way it would end. Maybe that’s why I don’t hate the film (it could also be because I love the song).

In 1990 we saw an amazing preview of a movie. We were in the mood for a good action film and this preview was all action. So we sent someone to Glowe and got the movie. It was called La Femme Nikita. O my God, was that movie terrible or what! That movie was incredibly boring. I was already sleeping 30 minutes into it. The movie was subsequently banned in my house.

Then there was “Young Joe, The Forgotten Kennedy (1977). The NTA repeatedly tortured us with this movie in the early 1980s. I couldn’t get over the explosion and I kept asking myself, “What would you do if you know that you are in a plane that’s going to explode and there’s nothing you can do about it and nowhere to run?”

Joseph P. Kennedy Jnr (1915-1944) was the eldest son of Joseph Patrick Kennedy Snr. Both of his grandfathers were politicians, as was his father. Joe Jnr attended Harvard College, the London School of Economics and Harvard Law School. Joseph Kennedy Snr was determined that at least one of his children would become the first Catholic president of the United States and so he trained Joe Jnr for the presidency right from when he was a young child (Joe Jnr visited Germany on behalf of his father and spoke highly of Adolf Hitler). The military remains the best place to get the best management training and so Joe Kennedy ensured that his sons enlisted in the armed forces.

Joe Kennedy Jnr enlisted in the navy before he could graduate from Harvard Law School and he became a US Navy pilot. He was based in Britain and he piloted land based bombers on missions over Europe during World War 2. He had completed 25 combat missions and was eligible to return to the US, but he volunteered for top secret missions in Operation Aphrodite.

Operation Aphrodite was a US Army Air Corps secret operation that utilised radio controlled planes (drones) to attack Nazi targets in Europe. The bomb-laden planes could not safely take off on their own, so a crew of two would pilot the plane through its take off routine and until it got to 2,000 feet, then they would arm the detonators and activate the radio control system and then parachute from the plane while the plane was remotely guided to crash into the target.

Kennedy’s plane, along with 3 other planes (one of which was filming the mission), took off from an RAF airbase at 6pm on August 12, 1944. Their mission was to attack German submarine pens in the North Sea. The plane completed its first remote controlled turn at 2,000 feet near the North Sea coast and Kennedy and his partner removed the safety pin, thereby arming the bombs. Kennedy radioed a coded message to base (to indicate that the bombs had been armed), but two minutes later, before the agreed time for the crew to bail out of the plane, the bombs suddenly exploded, killing Kennedy and his co-pilot. Their bodies were never recovered.

Joe Kennedy Senior was determined to ensure that one of his sons became the first Catholic Irish-American president of the US. Joe Junior was the focus of his attention. He didn't take John F. Kennedy seriously at first. He thought that JFK was more of a playboy. It was only after Joe Junior died that he turned his attention to JFK.
