marvel - How many named characters died in Avengers: Infinity War?


How many named characters have died



and/or disintegrated



by the end of Avengers: Infinity War. It is difficult to speculate who died on



Xandar and the Asgardian ship.




So restrict it to on-screen deaths only.



Answer



According to this video on YouTube and this article from Time:



Killed by "traditional" methods
- Gamora
- Heimdall
- Loki
- Vision

Disintegrated by Thanos
- Bucky Barnes

- Drax
- Groot
- Mantis
- Maria Hill
- Nick Fury
- Peter Parker (Spider-Man)
- Peter Quill (Star-Lord)
- Sam Wilson (Falcon)
- Stephen Strange (Doctor Strange)
- T'Challa (Black Panther)

- Wanda Maximoff (Scarlet Witch)



Not included in the video, but also named characters who died:



Thanos's Black Order
- Corvus Glaive
- Cull Obsidian
- Ebony Maw
- Proxima Midnight




Named in the film, but their fate is unknown at the end of the movie:



- Clint Barton (Hawkeye); mentioned by Black Widow but does not appear
- Eitri; last seen at the forges of Nidavellir
- Johann Schmidt (Red Skull/Stonekeeper); last seen on Vormir
- Ned Leeds; last seen on a school bus driven by Stan Lee
- Pepper Potts; last heard from via Tony's headset
- Scott Lang (Ant-Man); mentioned by Black Widow but does not appear
- Shuri; last seen in her lab attempting to remove the Mind Stone from Vision
- Taneleer Tivan (The Collector); appears but only as an illusion

- Thaddeus Ross (Secretary of State); last seen via hologram conference call
- Wong; last seen returning to his post at the Sanctum Santorum





Not in the movie, but confirmed status by Word of God from the Russos (via Huffington Post):


Alive:



- Aunt May
- Howard the Duck




Dead:



- Betty Ross
- Lady Sif
- Unnamed Asgardian Actor (Matt Damon)



Unknown:



- Jane Foster (Updated: Alive!)
- Korg

- Miek
- Nakia





Also not in the movie, but fate… slightly clarified by the Russos (via Gizmodo):



- Valkyrie is confirmed to have survived the initial attack on the Asgardian ship, but no status was given as to whether she survived the Infinity Gauntlet.





And, completely breaking with the "named characters in Avengers: Infinity War" theme of the question, via Uproxx:




This character wasn’t in the movie, but I’m wondering if the Galaga guy from the first Avengers survived Thanos’ snap or not?
Joe Russo: He got snapped in the middle of a Galaga game. He was seconds away from his all-time high score.
I’m considering this canon.
Joe Russo: He’s gone.





Killed by the events of Avengers: Infinity War, but not shown until Ant-Man and the Wasp:



- Hank Pym

- Janet van Dyne (The Wasp)
- Hope van Dyne



…and shown to survive:



- Scott Lang (Ant-Man), although he appears to be stranded in the Quantum Realm.





Revealed to have survived in the book Avengers: Infinity War: The Cosmic Quest Volume Two: Aftermath (via CBR.com):




- Doctor Erik Selvig
- Darcy Lewis
- Jane Foster

harry potter - Do the Kwikspell courses work?

In Harry Potter we are introduced to Kwikspell course in The Chamber of Secrets (and never hear about it again). We see Filch taking courses, presumably by mail. The descriptions of Kwikspell make me think it is for people who are weak in magic (kind of like how Neville was supposed to be when he was younger), but had magic in them nonetheless. However, Ron's comments later in the chapter make it sound like it is mainly for Squibs to learn magic. However, it is strongly implied through out all the books that Squibs are essentially Muggles, and will never be able to do magic. How then is a Kwikspell course supposed to work? Do we have any information to know if it works at all? Is it a scam? An answer from any level of canon is welcome. Answer Kwikspell courses are (probably) useful to some wizards, but not to squibs. The Kwikspell course literature comes with two testimonials. Madam Z. Nettles of Topsham writes: ‘I had no memory for incantations and my potions were a family joke...

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.

languages - Do we ever see written English in the Star Wars films?

In Empire Strikes Back , we see a transcription of what R2's beeps and bloops mean, but it's not English (sorry for the low quality, it's from the 2004 DVDs): I'd assume it's what Basic looks like when written, but is there some point in the the Star Wars films we see written English instead? (This sort of spun off from a discussion in How do people understand astromech droids? .) Answer At one point there was English but it has been phased out in subsequent versions of the films. Chris Gould at DVD Active did a comparison of all versions of each of the Star Wars films, and in his comparison of Episode 4 , there are a couple of screenshots showing how the power gauge for the Death Star tractor beam was changed. I imagine there are probably more to be found in his other comparisons but I haven't got around to reading those yet.

Was the "pure soul" of Harry's what had really hurt Voldemort?

In the Order of the Phoenix, Voldemort possesses Harry, and it hurts. Greatly. I think that Dumbledore explained that it was because Voldemort's rotten soul was incapable of assimilating Harry's pure soul, that Voldemort didn't understand the love and friendship etc that Harry has in his heart. But, I think it was a lie. Remember that in Deathly Hallows, while looking for information regarding Horcruxes, it is discovered that it is in fact possible to merge a soul fragment back, but that the process was extremely painful. Now then, if Voldemort tried to possess Harry, and Harry had a fragment of Voldemort's soul, I think that it could have been the true cause of Voldemort's pain: the fact of having his soul so close of another fragment. I think that Dumbledore knew that fact, but had to lie to Harry because it was inappropriate to let him know that he had one of Voldemort's soul fragments at the moment. Is that right? Or was it truly the pure soul of Harry's...
