When the Avengers are plotting their time heist, there are inevitable discussions about the nature of time travel, and soon enough Rhodey (Don Cheadle) floats the idea of simply killing Thanos when he's a baby.

Professor Hulk quickly rubbishes the idea, and when he asks where Rhodey got his understanding of time travel, he hilariously name-drops the likes of Star Trek, Terminator, Timecop, Time After Time, A Wrinkle in Time, Somewhere in Time, Hot Tub Time Machine and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

Given that Don Cheadle's comedic chops have been curiously underplayed over the course of the MCU, it was certainly refreshing to see him get a beat like this.
