Topic	Adults needing complete explanations in media ruined time travel stories

All endgame needed to do to get rid of this problem is say "we don't know what will happen if we do this. Its never been done before." Like, have guesses, and theories, and TRY to correct everything for a clean closed-loop. But just admit that possible divergences are just thing you aren't equipped to speak on. No Bruce telling all these hard and fast rules, no Ancient One spelling out the path of the multiverse. Just admit you don't know the consequences, and say "fuck it, let's take the risk." Boom. Suddenly any time travel fuckery doesn't matter anymore. and very few people will care, because their eyes are on Thanos and not your funky rules. Then you can have all KINDS of fun with the fallout. You got a good point. The idea you need to use pseudo-science to explain time travel is what leads to issues. Still, I was fine with Endgame. I think post-release explanations were a bad idea, though. --- Number of legendary 500 post topics: 33, 500th posts: 31; PiO ATTN: 5 RotM wins 1, LETTEN MY ARROW FLYEN TRUE <cite>PiOverlord posted [p:956713799] in Adults nee...
