But there's one thing that still bugs me: the Infinity Stones. According to Wikipedia, the Infinity Stones were created just after the Big Bang and "were dispersed throughout the cosmos."
There are six Infinity Stones, each with a different power. (One source I found said eight; maybe that's how many in the comic books.)
There are at least 2 trillion galaxies in the universe. Having just one Infinity Stone in our galaxy is astronomically unlikely. If I calculated correctly, the odds are 0.0000000003% (that's 9 zeros after the decimal point). To have all six in our galaxy is even more unlikely (I'm not sure how to calculate that, maybe 0.00000000005%; that's 10 zeros which doesn't seem like enough zeros).
SPOILER for Avengers Infinity War and End Game.
But in the MCU, all six are in our galaxy and a lot of them are on Earth and a lot of them are in New York City. Thanos needed all six to eliminate half of all life in the universe. But in reality, he could never do it unless he could first visit all 2 trillion galaxies in the known universe.
And that bugs me. Probably because it's not internally consistent.
How do you feel about the Infinity Stones all being in our galaxy. Do you care or am I just being picky? Let me know in the comments below.
