hanos, we need to talk (calling all MCU Fans)

**SPOILER WARNING** 
Do not read/participate in this forum if you haven't seen Infinity War and wish to not spoil it for yourself.


It has been a few months since Infinity War ruined our lives, and I think it is time we start the healing/grieving process. Yes, half of our beloved Avengers died, or rather, drifted away, and I still feel lost and empty. I think that us MCU fans need to be there for each other, remember the good memories of those who perished, share our favorite stories, and plot Thanos' murder. *sniffles* But seriously, Infinity War had some very intense and sad moments *cough* Gamora and Peter's death *cough*.

I want to know some of your theories, or theories you've heard, about anything in Infinity War. Some of my favorites that I FIRMLY believe in are how Gamora is trapped in the Soul Stone and Loki is definitely not dead. One that is very popular is that Captain Marvel is gonna come save the day, but I am pretty sure I read somewhere that she isn't making an appearance in Avengers 4 (even though Nick seemed to have sent a message to her in the post-credit scene).

So, what are your theories? How are we gonna fix the mess that Thanos created? Are Loki and Gamora really gone for good? Why did Hulk refuse to join the battle?

Personally I believe that Marvel is sticking to the statement they made: that Avengers 4 will be the "end of the MCU as we know it" and there will be a basic timeline divide - the time before Avengers 4 and the time after Avengers 4.

That said, I don't see why the heroes should return - but it does seem as if at least Drax and Spiderman will return as they both have movies coming out prior to Avengers 4. How? Why? No idea. I would've goped they stay dead until after Avengers 4 where I would believe the universe indeed comes to a "halt", setting us all up for a revamp and restart of the MCU, giving room to new origin stories (alternate timelines) of existing heroes. 

This would also free Marvel from paying so much to the actors who rose to fame which I'm afraid is a very Marvel/Disney thing to do - so my guess is: Avengers 4 finds a "solution" for some of the chaos created (continuing the solution that we'll see soon as we have to see some for the sake of Spiderman + Drax) and then it's reboot/revamp time with a new timeline.
