 * Can you set the movie in a time frame, does this happen concurrently with any other Marvel movies?
 * SD: No, it's present day.
 * It's present day. So how long is he in recovery, for the hands?
 * SD: Oh we had that mapped out, gosh, it's been a long time since I thought about that. It's months that he's in recovery, I think it's between 3 and 6 months. Yeah, I think it's about 3 to 6 months. Somewhere in there. And there is a more precise answer but I don't remember which one it is...
 * Fair enough. 'Cause obviously the movie starts, there's a shot in Stephen's apartment of an award he's been given for 2016, and a lot of references are very very contemporary as well, obviously you see the Avengers Tower, there's references to Adele and Beyoncé. So, does it start right at the beginning of 2016? The time frame of his learning is obviously accelerated by the fact he can project his astral form...
 * SD: Yeah if I remember correctly, I think - gosh, don't hold me to this because again I haven't thought about this in a long time, but I had a day where we went through and mapped everything out in the script phase, and checked in on it during production - but I think it's about a year from the beginning of the movie to his return to New York. And so I think it goes roughly from late Fall to late Fall... mid-to-late Fall to mid-to-late Fall, I think it is. Because you know it's cold and raining, um... so NO, I think it starts early Fall, to late Fall, so it's a little over a year, because I think it's like Wintery when he has the fight with Christine, it's like that cold, New York, really dark grey, nearly snowing kind of vibe. So yeah, I think it's Fall to Fall basically.


 * Accident:
 * Prominent visible prop means 1st February 2016 earliest
 * WHiH means 6th May 2016 earliest
 * WHiH suggests loosely 6th May 2016 - Day 239. Value 1 (loosely suggests date, very reliable)
 * 11th September 2015 according to SD - Day 1. Value 3 (close approximate date given, mostly reliable source)
 * Watch says 9th February 2016 - Day 152. Value 0.5 (not very visible or reliable)
 * ((239*1)+(1*3)+(152*0.5))/(1+3+0.5) = Day 71ish. Day 71 20th November 2015 - earliest possible is 6th May 2016 which is +168 days
 * Argument:
 * Minimum of 3 months after, 5th August 2016
 * SD implies 3.5 months after crash, 4th March 2016 - Day 92. Value 9 (strong implication of time, very reliable source)
 * SD implies 4th December 2015 - Day 1. Value 3 (close approximate date given, mostly reliable source)
 * ((9*92)+(3*1))/(9+3) = Day 69ish. Day 71 12th February 2016 - earliest possible is 5th August 2016 which is +175 days
 * End fight
 * Scott thinks there is around 10.75 months of training, 8th January 2017 - Day 57. Value 4 (strong time frame given, mostly reliable source)
 * Scott thinks 13th November 2016 - Day 1. Value 3 (close approximate date given, mostly reliable source)
 * Mads thinks there is 9 months of training, 13th November 2016 - Day 1. Value 3 (close approximate date given, mostly reliable source)
 * (57*4)+(1*3)+(1*3)/(4+3+3) = Day 23ish. Day 22 4th December 2016. The differences because of minimum dates are an average of (168+175)/2 = 171.5. However it also comes closer to the time frame suggested now because not affected by minimum dates. 171.5+0/2 = +86ish, Day 108ish. Day 106 26th February 2017

 * Watch says 9th February 2016 - Day 1. Value 0.2 (not very visible or reliable)
 * ((88*1)+(214*3)+(1*0.2))/(1+3+0.2) = Day 174ish. Day 172 29th July 2016

 * (57*4)+(85*3)+(1*3)/(4+3+3) = Day 49ish. Day 50 8th October 2017

The first option is closer to real time. I would go with that personally
