His “You’re not the only one cursed with knowledge” to Tony Stark makes a lot more sense now

I wonder how many times Marvel "confirmed" a major theory like this one when in reality they were looking at fan theories and taking them to fix their messy plot holes lol

I thought him trying to stop the celestials emerging was a pretty good theory too.

this video revitalized my excitement for marvels future. changed my perspective on thanos. crazy to think avengers were trying to save their universe, but thanos was trying to save the multiverse. the theory of thanos having cosmic awareness has to be true because he knew about the multiverse while the avengers were stuck fixated on their universe (for good reasons). what if thanos reasoned with the avengers...you know what he couldent because like you said you cant really talk about the multiverse or it will give people ideas to mess with it and cause incursions.

Great theory. This would also explain why Thanos used the Time Stone so sparingly. He knew messing with the fabric of time too much could lead to unwanted results. Also, the way that Ant Man came back from the quantum realm by way of a rat “accidentally” stepping on the right buttons in correct sequence was so ridiculously convenient it could have only been orchestrated by some type of higher being (i.e. He Who Remains)

I would definitely love a future in the MCU where they have to “snap” Thanos back to get his help against Kang

The key line of thanos that makes me think that he not only knew about kang was his line “I am inevitable”. Even if the avengers stopped him on 1 time line, there are countless timelines were he succeeds regardless.

This would also make sense as to why Kang said he allows the timeline where Thanos blips 50% of everything and eventually gets beaten by the Avengers

Also remember when nebula was showing what her other self was going through, she told thanos that she was no traitor and that that wasn’t her. Thanos replied saying "I know" so that makes this theory correct because thanos knew that wasn’t nebula, at least not from his universe

"you are not the only one cursed with knowledge" Maybe this is part of why Thanos dropped that line. He is cursed with knowing of the multiverse war, etc.

I mean this is a plausible reason because even Loki, the first villain of the Avengers who terrorized New York, found himself terrified and on his knee at the end of his series after finding out Kang's Existence. So, that makes Thanos justified in grand scheme of things to prevent further universal turmoil because imagine if the Avengers finds out about Kang and how would they react after they killed Thanos when in fact he was the only solution.

I think it's more likely that a Celestial Emergence is what destroyed Titan, since Thanos is an Eternal in the MCU.

The writers at Disney should REALLY listen to you. These are VERY compelling theories. And WHO CARES if people 'see it coming,' a Good story, is a GOOD STORY. Especially if it ties the threads.

A lot of people don't realize the true downfall of Thanos plan in the movie was he kept his word. Thanos has never been known to be a liar if you remember any conversations about him from Nebula, or the conversation between him and Gamora. When Strange asked him to spare Starks life, even though the snap was supposed to be set at random he kept Tony out the loop. I think that Strange knew that about him, and out of all the realities/ possibilities Tony had that one chance. Great movie ..but the comic had a way better storyline. Even though there are a couple elements I didn't like about the movie The Silver Surfer had the Hulk standing in for him and missed a great way to introduce Adam Warlock, plus that version of The Incredible Hulk from planet Sakarr would have given Thanos a run for his money, a much smarter, and stronger version of The Hulk. Fun Fact for those who don't read comics those trapped sacrificed to the Soul Stone aren't really dead but trapped in another dimension/soulverse/pocketdimension. Adam Warlock, and Silver Surfer got out if I remember correctly.

Thanos, the Hero We didn't Deserve. REST IN POWER.

Thanos is what I like to call the “Snoopdog” of the Marvel universe- he knows at lot, a HELL OF A LOT of things that have happened to shape our time- just because one dosent speak on it, does not in any way mean they don’t have far more knowledge than we think.

A lot of people liked Thanos, and I can see it being a huge success if they brought him back into the MCU as an ally against Kang. They even teased this in the What If series where he was friendlier. Maybe just to see how the audience would react? The only question I want answered is… Tony? Both were linked as characters who could see the future by observing how current events could unfold. If Thanos’s plan was deceptive, Tony would have worked it out. Are we going to get some big reveal that he laid out a plan that would stop multiversal threats before giving up his life?

Interesting theory, but the rationale for the snap is weak. If the snap was truly random, then it would be an ineffective strategy to take out an ancestor of Kang, as there would be a multitude of variant universes where all of Kang's ancestors survived the Snap. Thanos spent far too much time and effort gathering the stones to use them for such a scattershot tactic, especially since he could presumably use the power of the stones to actually identify Kang's ancestors and hunt them down more surgically.

I see it as a “two birds with one stone” kind of thing. It would mean that after the war on Titan ravaged he also found some evidence of Celestials being born & thus found that removing half of the universe would both stop the war & stop the birth of more Celestials.
