8 Movie Mistakes Acknowledged As Canon
2. The Second Infinity Gauntlet - Thor: Ragnarok
willWhere inter-connected movie franchises consisting of literally dozens of movies are concerned, mistakes are inevitable, and fans will sure as hell catch every single one of them.
One of the most egregious to date occurs in the original Thor film, where the Infinity Gauntlet is briefly noticeable residing within Odin's (Anthony Hopkins) vault on Asgard.
This became a problem a few years later in Avengers: Age of Ultron, then, when the mid-credits scene revealed Thanos (Josh Brolin) to already be in possession of the Gauntlet. So, what gives?
After years of speculation - with some fans suggesting Odin's Gauntlet could be a decoy - we got confirmation in Thor: Ragnarok. When Hela (Cate Blanchett) breaks into Odin's vault, she takes one look at his Gauntlet, shouts "Fake!" and pushes it over.
On one hand this was an hilarious send-up of the mistake itself, while also folding the extra Gauntlet's existence into the continuity. It's a hell of a lot better than just quietly hoping fans will forget about it - because they won't.
