Plot Holes In Avengers: Endgame Everyone Ignored

Like Infinity War before it, Avengers: Endgame is a marvel of storytelling, but is the execution perfect? Not really. Throughout its three-hour runtime, Endgame takes some narrative turns that teeter on the edge of nonsense, and some of screenwriters' choices threaten to ruin the movie if you think about them too hard. Here are the biggest plot holes in Avengers: Endgame that everybody just ignored.

During the film's time heist, Bruce Banner visits the Sanctum Sanctorum in 2012 New York City. He's searching for Dr. Strange, to borrow the time stone he's known to guard. But instead of Strange, he finds the Ancient One, Strange's mentor, who doesn't meet the doctor until the events of his movie in 2016.

Despite Strange not yet being the Sorcerer Supreme, the Ancient One has full knowledge of who he is, and hearing that he gives away the Time Stone in the future is enough to convince her to give up her own stone. That's how much she trusts Strange, saying, "Strange is meant to be the best of us." It's presented as a foregone conclusion — a predestined future that she's already aware of.

But this doesn't match up with what we've seen before. In the Doctor Strange movie, the Ancient One presents private doubts as to whether she'll even train Strange, confiding in Mordo that she cannot take him on as a student. Mordo has to convince her to train him, which flatly contradicts Endgame.

It'd make sense for the Ancient One to put up a front for Strange himself, but why would she doubt him when he's not even in the room? It's not magic — just a little plot hole between movies.
