marvel - How long after the Avengers does Thor: The Dark World take place?


During the events of The Avengers, Loki notes that the Bifrost is still destroyed.



With the Bifrost gone, how much dark energy did the Allfather have to muster to conjure you here, your precious Earth?



Loki - The Avengers



During Thor: The Dark World, the Bifrost is already rebuilt and operational.


But at the beginning of Thor: The Dark World, Loki is brought before Odin and the conversation they have feels as though they had not really discussed Loki's actions during the Avengers before.


How long has passed since the ending of The Avengers?



Answer



Two years after the events of Thor, one year after the events of Avengers.


This was discussed in an interview with Kevin Feige, as being about a year or so:



That leads me to suggest you are keeping a time line in your mind with these movies. We know Iron Man 3 took place six months after The Avengers. Jane mentions that Thor 2 happens like two years after the original and Scarlett Johansson recently said The Winter Soldier is like two years after The Avengers. So Thor centric, where does Thor 2 take place after The Avengers? How long has he been away? We see almost the next scene after with the Loki scene.



Yeah. You know, we think it’s been at least a year from the end of The Avengers and that between Loki being sentenced to the dungeons and Thor finishing up putting out the fires between the nine realms that it’s been about a year, but it’s probably been a year before that since he was in New Mexico with Jane, so that’s the two years.



There was also an interview in Empire with Craig Kyle (the producer) who said it was about two years since the events of Thor, one year since the events of The Avengers. (Unfortunately, I can't find a link).


I think the scene with Odin reprimanding Loki takes place very shortly after The Avengers, and then time passes while Thor does the rounds.


There was a two-issue prelude comic to Thor 2 from Marvel which includes that scene, and has it set immediately after Thor and Odin return to Asgard with the Tesseract at the end of The Avengers (that comic also shows the reconstruction of the Bifrost, and shows the dark magic Odin uses to send Thor to Earth).

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.

tolkiens legendarium - Difference between elves and dwarves blacksmithing in the Lord of the Rings

Both the elves and the dwarves were famous for their metal work in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but what is the difference between what they made, and which one had the better skill of making amours and swords? Answer James Christopher's answer sums up the second part of your question well, but as to the difference in what they made, a little more detail is needed. Once the Elves learned to forge with steel, the shape of the sword changed, now being able to take on the form of a great broadsword or a light and agile curved sword. Additionally, they took great pride in decorating their swords. As we see in the Lord of the Rings , some swords like Sting had magical properties such as glowing blue when orcs are near. As far as the use of Mithril, lotr.wikia has two contradictory passages: Thus, Elven blades became renowned as great weapons, capable of performing deeds beyond the skill of their handlers and were even more glorious when the use of Mithril was allowed to the Elves. ...

How do Pokemon trainers collect their winnings?

According to Bulbapedia , Prize money is the money that a Trainer pays out at the end of a battle. So we know that the money comes directly from the trainer that just lost, and not some third-party committee or sponsor. But how is this done? It can be easy seeing the random trainers who challenge you along the way wanting to wager and then, after admitting defeat, sticking to their word and handing over their hard-earned pokebucks. Then there are the likes of Team Rocket and Giovanni, who also give money once they lose. This doesn't seem like something people in a criminal organization would willingly do. From this it appears that trainers have no say in whether or not they cough up the dough after losing, but I can't find anything on how exactly the funds are transferred from loser to winner. So how do Pokemon trainers receive their winnings?
