marvel - Are the Infinity Stones in the comics and in the film in the same positions in the Infinity Gauntlet?


Is the placement order of the Infinity Stones in Avengers: Infinity War the same as in the comic books? E.g. the same stone in the center and at each knuckle?



Answer




In Earth-616 and the comic New Avengers Volume 3 Issue 3 the stones are placed into the Infinity Gauntlet in the following order:



  • Thumb: Mind


  • Index: Power

  • Middle: Time

  • Ring: Soul

  • Little: Reality

  • Back: Space


New Avengers Volume 3 Issue 3: Infinity Gauntlet


In the Infinity Gauntlet comic arc which Avengers: Infinity War is somewhat based off of the Infinity Gems are placed in the following order:



  • Thumb: Power


  • Index: Reality

  • Middle: Mind

  • Ring: Space

  • Little: Time

  • Back: Soul

However, in Avengers: Infinity War the stones are placed from Index finger to the back in the order that Thanos has retrieved them. Obviously this next part will contain spoilers for the film but they will be uncovered as it would make the answer unnecessarily awkward to read.


At the start of the film Thanos already has the Power Stone after getting it from Xandar in unseen events. In that same scene where this is shown he also get's the Space Stone from Loki who had stolen the Tesseract from Asgard. Later on when the Guardians head over to Knowhere to try and stop Thanos from getting the Reality Stone from The Collector it is revealed they are too late and he already has it. Thanos then takes a trip with Gamora to get the Soul Stone, costing him everything. In a battle with half the Guardians, Spider-Man, Iron Man and Doctor Strange, Thanos get's the Time Stone in exchange for Stark's life. Lastly, Thanos rips the Mind Stone from Visions head. So the order they are placed in is:




  • Thumb: Time

  • Index: Power

  • Middle: Space

  • Ring: Reality

  • Little: Soul

  • Back: Mind


Infinity War Thanos finishes the Infinity Gauntlet


In fact the only stone in the same position is the Power Stone compared to the positions in New Avengers. Compared to Infinity Gauntlet none of the stones occupy the same positions.

harry potter - Did Dolores Umbridge Have Any Association with Voldemort (or Death Eaters) before His Return?

I noticed that Dolores Umbridge was born during the first Wizarding War, so it's very likely she wasn't a Death Eater then (but she is pretty evil -- who knows?). After that Voldemort was not around in a way that could affect many people, and most wouldn't know he was planning to rise again. During that time, and up through Voldemort's return (in Goblet of Fire ), did Umbridge have any connection with the Death Eaters or with Voldemort? Was she doing what she did on her own, or was it because of an association with Voldemort or his allies? Answer Dolores Umbridge was definitely not a good person. However, as Sirius points out, "the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters". Remember that he also says that he doesn't believe Umbridge to be a Death Eater, but that she's evil enough (or something like that). I think there are two strong reasons to believe that: Umbridge was proud to do everything according to the law, except when she trie...

futurama - How much time is lost in 'Time Keeps on Slippin''

In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.

aliens - Interstellar Zoo story

I vaguely remember this story from my childhood: it was about an interstellar zoo that came to Earth with lots of bizarre and unusual species, and humans would file through and gape at all the crazy looking creatures from other planets. The twist came at the end when the perspective shifted to the other side of the bars and we discovered that the "creatures" were traveling through space on a kind of safari. They thought they were the visitors and we were the animals. Neither side knew that the other side thought they were the zoo creatures. Answer Got it. Zoo, by Edward D. Hoch. Published in 1958.

harry potter - What is the difference between Diffindo and Sectumsempra?

In the Harry Potter books, Diffindo is called the 'Severing Charm' and it’s most commonly used to cut ropes and the like. However, in the last book Hermione uses it on Ron but misses, creating a 'slash in his jeans' and his knee gets cut, causing him to 'roar in pain'. We've only seen Sectumsempra used once on screen when Harry directly uses it on Malfoy in the sixth book, but there it's mentioned that he is 'waving his wand wildly'. Wouldn't Diffindo, if used in such a fashion also cause a similar effect? Similarly, if it was able to cut Ron, it would also be able to, say, chop off an ear (George's)? In that case, how are these two spells different, except for Sectumsempra seemingly used exclusively to hurt humans? Answer While Diffindo and Sectumsempra both can be countered by other spells, Diffindo is far more easily countered. Reparo, a relatively common spell, can completely reverse its effect when used once. “He pulled the old cop...
