Thanos let Thor live in Infinity War because Loki traded the Space Stone (Tesseract) to save his brother's life after Thanos was about to kill him, a deal Thanos honored, and because Thanos didn't see the beaten Thor as a significant threat at that moment, choosing to leave him to float in space after destroying the Asgardian ship, intending for him to die but not making him a priority. Thanos's goal was the stones, and he was focused on getting them, killing Loki for his betrayal, and blowing up the ship to eliminate witnesses and cover his tracks, not necessarily to personally execute Thor.
In the first few scenes we saw Thanos dragging Thor by his head just like a ragdoll. Being all that, Thanos has no evidence to believe that Thor would be any problem for his quest, he felt no threat from Thor. So Thanos felt no need to kill Thor, but just ignore him.
There are a few potential reasons. First, Thor at least suspects that he isn't the only person worthy of wielding Mjolnir. On the off-chance that Thanos is somehow worthy, handing him the hammer is a dumb idea. Second, Mjolnir being impossible to lift by the unworthy isn't an immutable law of the universe.
The theory that Thanos was waiting for Odin to die is incorrect. Thanos was waiting till he knew where all of the stones were. Once he captured Nebula and found out that Gamora knew the location of the Soul Stone, he went on his offensive against the Universe.
Thanos knew Tony with his brilliant intellect is the only one who can stop him. Even The directors have stated that Thanos most feared Stark. Not due to his physical power, but his intelligence and shared "curse of knowledge".
The Hulk has admitted that The Void is the only thing he fears.
Disbelieving, Gamora could not comprehend that Thanos ever showed genuine love for her. However, upon realizing it was true, Gamora quickly took her switchblade from Thanos' belt. Drawing it, she attempted to kill herself, only to be fooled by the Reality Stone, opening her hand to reveal only bubbles.
In Eternals (2021), Ajak reveals that the Blip delayed the onslaught of the Emergence for five years, as it halved the Earth's population from the necessary level needed for it to occur.
An Eternal–Deviant warlord from the moon Titan, Thanos is regarded as one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe. Due to his genocidal tendencies, he has clashed with many heroes including the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy.
The six Infinity Stones each control a fundamental aspect of existence: Space (teleportation, portals), Mind (telepathy, intelligence), Reality (altering what's real), Power (energy, strength), Time (time manipulation), and Soul (life, death, essence). Wielding all six together grants the user nearly limitless, god-like power over the universe, allowing them to achieve any desire, as demonstrated by Thanos in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Captain America has lifted it, as has Loki. However, one of the more surprising characters to lift Mjolnir was Deadpool - but unlike some of the others to wield the hammer, the moment wasn't as it initially appeared."
Thor 5 is not officially confirmed by Marvel Studios, but it is widely reported as being in development with Chris Hemsworth set to return, with industry insiders suggesting a 2025 filming start and discussions ongoing, though no director or writer is attached and plans are fluid, possibly tying into events after Avengers: Doomsday. While Hemsworth expressed excitement to continue, the project's timeline remains uncertain as the focus is currently on the next Avengers films.
The Marvel Visual Dictionary explained that Loki does not turn back blue even upon death because of Odin's magical change to him. It appears to be permanent except when Loki touches an object that is owned or created by the Jotunheim Frost Giants. This is why Loki didn't change back in color when Thanos killed him.
Stormbreaker is clearly stronger while not benefitting from the enchantment odin placed on mjolnir in THOR that makes only the worthy able to use it. Stormbreaker is literally said to be a weapon fit for a king while mjolnir was made for a prince to be a conduit of his power.
In 1945, Red Skull vanished from Earth upon holding the Tesseract while trying to finish off Captain America, leading him to be teleported by the Space Stone to Vormir, where he was cursed to serve as the keeper of the Soul Stone.
The number is 678-136-7092, which is an Atlanta based number where most of the production for Infinity War and the upcoming Avengers 4 took place. As it turns out, the Russo Brothers had the number set up for a viral marketing campaign, but Disney's legal team said no to this cool Captain America Easter egg.
NoobMaster69 in Avengers: Endgame is the same character, Aaron, from Captain America: The Winter Soldier, an Apple Store employee who played Fortnite with Thor and Korg, revealed in a later Xbox tie-in commercial where his cousin (who created the name) appears, tying him back to the MCU's gamer tag in Endgame.
The idea that “Thanos wins 14,000,605 times and the one time he loses, they make a movie about it” humorously references the concept introduced in Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Avengers: Endgame (2019), where Doctor Strange sees over 14 million possible futures to determine how the Avengers might defeat Thanos.
The first F-bomb in the MCU was dropped by Chris Pratt as Peter Quill (Star-Lord) in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 during a scene where he tells Nebula to "open the f***ing door," a moment that broke the long-standing PG-13 language barrier for Marvel Studios films and was partially improvised by Pratt.
"Thanos erased half of the population of the universe... delayed the Emergence. But the people of this planet brought everyone back with a snap of a finger." The Blip was the resurrection of the victims of Thanos' Snap.
Yes, Spider-Man was an animated TV series that ran from 1981 to 1982, featuring 26 episodes where Peter Parker uses his powers to fight villains like the Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus, following the classic origin story of being bitten by a radioactive spider.

Amanda Seyfried revealed why she ended up turning down Marvel's offer to play Gamora in Guardians of the Galaxy. “No, because I just didn't wanna sit around getting painted for more hours than my acting time,” said the 40-year-old actor.
Korath is a major antagonist in the Marvel Animated Universe. Unlike the MCU, Korath was an adopted son of Thanos, and therefore, the adoptive brother of Gamora and Nebula and a follower of Ronan the Accuser.
It's made clear in Guardians 2 why Thanos favors Gamora. Gamora is the better fighter, and he views Nebula as inferior because of this.
