New Marvel Guy wrote: Well about the blog I really enjoyed it, it was full with facts and all of them were arranged with numbers who let us count them, indeed I was impressed by your knowledge in MCU timeline and the quantity of the blog ( to be honest I didn’t have the time to read it all, I didn’t have the doubt that the avengers are in 2012 and the civil war is in 2016 so probably this has affect to me not to continue reading the whole blog but for that what I read It was amazing especially the A. o. S.H.I.E.L.D. date’s) !

P.S. I have just a few more questions:



1) What year does Iron Man 1 occurs 2008 or 2009

If 2009 then why:

- A show during Iron Man 1 shows the date 24 may 2008? (Is it mistake like the 8 year thing?)

- Happy in Spider man Homecoming say that he is keeping the stark engagement ring since 2008 and

- Vision in Civil War (2016) says that it has been 8 years since Stark announced that he is Iron Man?

- Marvel says that movies release date and the events dates in movies are proximately the same? (Iron Man release date is 2008)

 2) What do you thing about a conspiracy theory that say that all this "8 year" thing is because of a time warep (change or something similar sorry for the bad spelling but I haven’t seen this word written anywhere and English is not my mother language) by Doctor Strange and all this will be fixed during infinity war battle? Don't worry about reading it all, I know it's extensive - as long as it gets the point across.

As for Iron Man, well, I wrote another extensive blog about that. The problem with Phase One is that there is so much contradictory evidence. While Iron Man definitely appears to be generally place itself in 2008, for the reasons you stated (Happy's line about the ring, though, that was weird... because Pepper and Tony didn't get together until Iron Man 2 and there's no way that can be 2008). Iron Man 2 and The Incredible Hulk generally place themselves around 2010. Thor places itself around 2011. However, the events of Iron Man 2, The Incredible Hulk, and Thor are tied together by "Fury's Big Week", and The Avengers is in 2012 and refers to the events of Thor as being "last year", suggesting 2011, whereas Natasha says that Bruce hasn't had an incident in "more than a year" - his last incident being a while after The Incredible Hulk, suggesting 2010 again. And there is a lot of references out there to Iron Man 2 being 6 months after the end of Iron Man, and yeah, it's just overall a bit of a mess...

The wiki still had Iron Man down as 2010 and Fury's Big Week as 2011 due to the "6 months" and "last year" comments, but I wrote this blog (again, extensive, apologies) listing all the many pieces of contradictory evidence for the Phase One timeline and trying to find the best possible answer to make compromises and satisfy it as much as possible. And the result ended up that Iron Man in 2009 and Fury's Big Week in 2010 was the best possible answer, at least with the current evidence. Perhaps Pepper's computer with the "May 4, 2008" date had the wrong date, perhaps Happy got the ring before Pepper and Tony actually got together... it's really not ideal, but it's the best that can be done I feel.

Thank you for your feedback, I really appreciate it :)
