No, based on that logic we moved it to 2010. Reallife unlike stated other in movie (not by prop) or crew or tie-in. Those were stated otherwise by crew (the official released timeline) and tie-in material (the comic). So we follow our own logic. We used the same official timeline from marvel to place Im1 on 2010, even though the clear writing mistake made in CW.

The used a newspaper in IM3 which was clearly a wrong date, they could have used this date thinking the movie happens about that moment. We use hard dates over realtime, but we dont see a prop as a harddate, seeing how props tend to be wrong, a lot.
