Avengers: Infinity War was so hyped that no matter how bad the film could have turned out to be the fans would have still loved it. Just the idea of all the heroes from the previous nineteen films coming together to fight the villain who had been teased for six years running was a mouth-watering prospect. Because of this, there was no way people would have scrutinized the movie for any shortcomings as the euphoria of watching the film would be too great. In the end, this turned out to be the case as Avengers: Infinity War was a great movie enjoyed universally.

Now that we’re all waiting for Avengers: Endgame’s arrival in a few short months, Infinity War is finally being scrutinized because people just can’t wait until the final film of Phase Three reaches our theaters. Doctor Strange uttered the name of the fourth Avengers movie on Titan, which meant that there were bound to be more clues for Avengers: Endgame in Infinity War. While people are busy watching the film over and over again to uncover something they could talk about, we’ve taken the liberty to point out those mistakes you never noticed because your fanboy nature was running too wild.

Avengers: Infinity War has a bunch of mistakes actually, and these range from production faults, something you need eagle eyes – or a bunch of repeated viewings – to find out, or the mistakes are related to continuity, for which you’ll have to watch the preceding films.

Fortunately, we’ve got you covered and so here are 25 Mistakes You Missed in Infinity War.

25 Thor’s Undamaged Clothes

In the Nidavellir scene where Thor pulled on the gearing mechanism to start up the forge again in order to create Stormbreaker, he took on the entire force of a neutron star. It was a testament to how powerful Thor was that he wasn’t incinerated to his end by the star. However, even more impressive was the endurance of his clothes which weren’t even slightly singed!

We get that Thor is supposed to be an all-powerful Asgardian, but are his clothes made of God DNA too?

24 Heimdall's Blindness

Heimdall should have been shown to be as blind as he looks in the picture above, at least then there would have been a valid reason for the guy’s complete ineptitude. Not only did Heimdall not see Thanos’ ship approaching, despite his power being an all-seeing Asgardian, he also missed spotting Thanos attacking the Nidavellir base and making the Infinity Gauntlet.

If you look at it this way, it was all Heimdall’s fault.

He could’ve done something about the whole affair before it even started, but it seems like the guy was slacking off on his job.

23 Changing Background

When Ebony Maw overpowers Doctor Strange in the Invasion of New York scene at the start of the movie, Stephen tries to use his Time Stone to combat the alien only to fail. If you notice the background when Maw starts to choke Stephen out, there was a police car and an overturned bike there.

In the next shot, though, when he’s been restrained, the background now consists of a singular car. Even the sidewalk has been removed. It looks like a completely different area.

22 Is She Last Or Not?

via: youtube.com (Trailer Crunch)

With James Gunn being fired and all, odds are we won’t be revisiting this mistake ever again within the MCU. In Guardians of the Galaxy, the Xandar database showed clearly that Gamora was supposed to be the last surviving member of her race due to Thanos wiping everybody else out.

In Avengers: Infinity War, though, Thanos openly tells Gamora that he only took out half the population. Not only that, he supports his decision by claiming taking out fifty percent of the people brought his plan full circle. So was the database incorrect then?

21 Thanos' Inconsistent M.O.

via youtube.com

Not only were Thanos’ actions contradicted from Guardians of the Galaxy, his actions were contradicted in Avengers: Infinity War itself. In the same film, we were reminded repeatedly that Thanos always took out only fifty percent of his victims. This was evident when he exterminated half of the Asgardians and half of Xandar.

However, he did no such thing in Nidavellir.

It was said that 300 dwarves resided in the realm, but only Eitri was left alive by Thanos while the rest were taken out. How does that fit into Thanos’ fifty percent MO?

20 How Did Thor Find Wakanda?

via youtube.com

Thor’s entry into Wakanda is already the stuff of legends. It was the perfect entry into a scene where all hope was lost for the heroes. Thor’s arrival signaled a turn for the better and showed us how Stormbreaker worked remarkably for the God of Thunder.

All this hid the fact that it should have been impossible for Thor to locate Wakanda in the first place. No one told him they were there. Heck, Thor never even knew Wakanda existed before this! When he’d left Earth in Avengers 2, Wakanda was known to no one. Then how’d he get there?

19 Thanos' Impossible Plan

MCU Planet Knowhere

While the impression given was that Thanos’ plan came into fruition, leading to him getting his hands on all Infinity Stones, that’s just not the case. Instead, Thanos had to rely on freakish coincidences to taste success.

For instance, how did Thanos know to wait for Gamora on Knowhere when the latter’s only clue that Thanos might be there was Thor. Thanos had earlier left Thor to perish in an explosion; he had no intention of letting him live and have Thor tip Gamora off. But then Thanos claimed he had purposefully been waiting for her at Knowhere.

18 Stormbreaker Changing Sides

via cbr.com

You’ll need some meticulous eyesight for this, but it is noticeable once you do catch it. In the scene where Stormbreaker is being forged, Thor falls from his position to where Rocket and Groot are. It is at this point the lazy tree decides to make some contribution and severs his arm to give Stormbreaker a handle.

Thor summons the ax toward him, and it is here where you can find the mistake. The front of the ax is at first faced toward Thor’s palm. But when it hovers above the ground and moves in his direction, the front of the ax is all of a sudden facing away from Thor’s hand.

17 Thor Can't Pronounce Nidavellir

via cbr.com

Drax accuses Thor of having made up a word to where the ax could be forged. Although Thor wasn’t making it up, he sure didn’t know what the name of the place really was. The word Nidavellir is a tongue twister in itself and Thor gets caught up in this trap when first mentioning it to the Guardians of the Galaxy.

The first two times Thor mentions the name, he calls it “Nivadellir” as opposed to “Nidavellir.” Now go back and watch the scene again.

16 Proxima And Glaive's Separate Shadows

via cbr,com

During the subway scene where Captain America makes his grand entrance, Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive both stand in awe at the figure of the superhero. They seem to be so dumbstruck that even their shadows didn’t get the memo.

That’s because Glaive and Midnight’s shadows weren’t aligned despite both of them standing in the same position under the same overhead lights. Their shadows should have been identical to one another, but Proxima’s shadow was heading one way and Corvus’ another. It’s almost as if they were CGI characters and not real people.

15 Cap And Black Widow's Insane Walking

via reddit.com

In a completely useless talking session, Cap, Black Widow, and Black Panther speak to Proxima Midnight for no real reason. Judging by where their army stood, the trio needed to have been walking for at least ten minutes before approaching the shield barrier.

And yet, in the very next shot, they regroup with the army without being winded in the slightest from the long walk and it doesn’t even seem as if they did walk at all. Then, it takes the army several minutes to run to the same spot! The same distance the trio had covered by simply walking.

14 Tony's Disappearing Hoodie

via screenrant.com

In Pepper’s only scene from the movie, she and Tony were out for a jog in the park when Tony started bantering as per usual. When the scene begins, he’s wearing a hoodie to go along with his track suit, Pepper then unclips the hoodie, although it still remains around Tony’s shoulders.

When Doctor Strange appears, the hoodie has completely disappeared.

Tony may be a billionaire, but that’s no excuse to simply throw your clothing away. Of course, he didn’t actually throw it away as much as production forgot he was supposed to be wearing a hoodie and carried on filming without it.

13 Thanos’ Changing Gauntlet

via youtube.com

There’s no need for elaboration here. The gauntlet you see in the hand of the Titan in the above picture is nothing like the one you saw in Avengers: Infinity War. That gauntlet was much more expressive in design and had several markings that made it look distinct from a generic gauntlet, much like the one we saw in Avengers: Age of Ultron.

We know that the above scene was in Nidavellir when Thanos forced the dwarves to craft the gauntlet, and couldn’t have made another because no more dwarves were left.

12 Bucky’s Evaporating Arm

via: youtube.com (SKY Marvel Scenes)

The Winter Soldier went two years without the use of a second arm as he began his rehabilitation in Wakanda that began in Civil War and continued in Black Panther. For Avengers: Infinity War, he got a specially made vibranium arm to fight with.

Not only did he not use this arm once in the battle that followed, for some reason the arm disintegrated with him after Thanos snapped half the universe away. The arm wasn’t a part of him, meaning that it should’ve remained solid after the Winter Soldier vanished.

11 Rocket And Groot's Positions

via youtube.com

Upon Thor’s arrival in Wakanda, he wastes no time in laying down his attack on Thanos’ troops and makes his super leap to bring down Stormbreaker in tandem with his inherent lightning based powers. This causes the entire vicinity of Outriders to be destroyed.

However, Thor arrived with both Rocket and Groot, who ran alongside him initially. But when the next shot showed Thor making his super jump the two had somehow been teleported way back. Thor hadn’t used super speed or anything, so neither Rocket nor Groot should have been so far back

10 Doctor Strange Forgetting How To Teleport

via youtube,com

In the Doctor Strange movie, the titular hero traveled through several different dimensions and could exist in the astral plain; these powers made using the sling ring to teleport look like child’s play. Doctor Strange used the sling ring in a casual manner in his own film and in Thor: Ragnarok to open a gateway to Norway.

But when it comes to alien spaceships he can’t do squat.

For some reason, Stephen didn’t stop to think that he could simply use his sling ring to teleport Tony, Peter, and himself out of Thanos’ reach.

9 Hulk Hiding For Some Reason

via geektyrant.com

Ever seen the Incredible Hulk before? You know, the guy who loses it every single second and no one can talk him into doing otherwise. According to it Avengers: Infinity War, however, the Hulk was content with remaining in hiding while Thanos and his children slaughtered half the Asgardians.

This was an overseen mistake on the directors’ part, who wanted the shock factor of the Hulk leaping over to attack Thanos. It was also an excuse to have the “we have a Hulk” line added to the film. As far as characterization is considered, the Hulk would never have been part of such a plan.

8 Why Only Groot?

via youtube.com

Thanos’ snap took out half of life all around the universe. This meant that everything that can be considered as living had half a chance to be vaporized (unless you count the Winter Soldier’s arm). Groot also evaporated due to him being a living creature, but it looks like the snap forgot that trees that remain stationary are also living things.

None of the trees we saw in Wakanda vanished, which can’t be possible considering there were hundreds of them around. Why did only Groot qualify? He’s a tree, too, but the other plant life seems to have been exempted wrongly.

7 Scarlet Witch's Disappearing Accent

via youtube.com

If you stick around people with different accents long enough your personal one will be faded away and you’ll incorporate the accent you’re used to being around. That would have been justifiable in Scarlet Witch’s case but she was never around Americans to completely lose her Sokovian accent and start using an American one.

She was in Europe the whole time.

So her accent should’ve been European as opposed to American. The directors either didn’t notice Elizabeth Olsen dropping the accent or just didn’t want people to remember Scarlet Witch isn’t American.

6 Thor's Weak God Powers

via inverse.com

Thor’s powers were greatly inconsistent in Avengers: Infinity War. For one, he somehow got defeated by Thanos (who, let’s face it, at base level, is just a purple Hulk) despite having unlocked true God mode in Thor: Ragnarok.

To top it off, the film wants us to believe debris from the Statesmen ship could ever hold him back. Ebony Maw used these pieces to hold Thor in place when he attacked Thanos. Maw was nowhere near Thor’s power level, so it’s not believable he could ever hold the God of Thunder with ship debris.
