For instance:
- Say a construction worker on a site vanishes. 5 years later snapped back to a finished building. Or rather under said finished building.
- Or what about prisoners in their cell. I would imagine many prisons closed down.
- Or what about just occupying the same space as another person as you pop back into existence.
*Edit: just want to make it clear. I loved the movie. I'm not saying this like it was some plot point I didn't like. I thought about it weeks later in a humourous way. Like a post credit scene with Deapool stuck in a while somewhere screaming " come on!?"

The stones are more than a computer program, they are guided by intent. They're magic rocks they do the thing you want within their power.
bfranks88
don't the stones so whatever the wielder wants? They should be powerful enough to bring everyone back safely.
echo1echo
snap back in the livingroom you were having sex in and about to climax 5 years earlier on her new boyfriend
DirtPoorFarmerSeedingUsersub
no

I mean it had been five years, if we count the rotation and path of the earths orbit wouldn't they just all appear in space? :)
DirtPoorFarmerSeedingUsersub
Yessir. It is called space-time. We are never in the same place twice. The universe expands, the earth orbits/spirals, etc.
SteveMND
If Thanos actually did snap away half of "all life," there would have been wayyyyy more apocalyptic results from the first one even than /1
SteveMND
2/ what we'd have to deal with getting it all back. Just chalk it up to "magic" and be pleased when/if the MCU references it at all, I say.
randomthug
My favorite message of the film, mass murder your enemies before they can do it to you.
paximus
Right?? The Avengers should’ve had Thanos sign a peace treaty or something. Maybe pinky swear! IDK, you’re totally right though
randomthug
Oh I'm a fan of overwhelming force to win a battle I just thought it was pretty nuts he wiped out all of them. Thats a genocide.
Cryolith
Or you were in an airplane at 30k feet.
nevernotsure
Yes!
thevortexmaster
I mean 5 years later I doubt all the planets would have been in the same position. It would just be a bunch of beings floating in space
Cryolith
Exactly.
Kwerf
Banner reversed the snap, not Tony. But yeah, that could've been bad. What if you were in the park and came back inside a memorial?
DPHENS
I call him "Brulk" now.
SteveMND
Then you get a second memorial rather soon after that, I suspect.
thevortexmaster
Well I doubt any planets would be in the same position. Everybody would be floating in space
Kwerf
Somehow that never seems to come up in science fantasy
GenshiV
All the suspension of disbelief necessary for the Avengers, and THIS is your problem with it?
nevernotsure
Didn't say it was a problem. Was just something I thought about later. Like a post scene showing Deadpool in some place stuck in wall.
diehardlance
Well the hulk brought everyone back and prolly thought about that
GenshiV
Okay yeah, that would have actually been hilarious. You should recommend they add that for the home release now that they own Fox.
DamnedAustin
Was it ever established that they came back exactly where they vanished, though? I think part of using the stones is that you could be (1)
DamnedAustin
pretty damn specific with what you wanted it to do. "Then why didn't they just bring all the Avengers back at the scene of the battle?" (2)
DamnedAustin
My guess is it would be a bad move to have them spawn with enemies nearby. Let Strange get them there safely. (3/3)
nevernotsure
Spiderman says they suddenly just back on Titan in the same location.
DamnedAustin
We can break that down, though. For starters, Titan likely isn't in the same place (and Earth certainly isn't) as it was when the snap (1)
DamnedAustin
happened, so we know it can't be the exact point in space where they vanished. I think it would make sense to have everybody back to (2)
DamnedAustin
*about* the same geographic location as where they vanished, but in doing so you could ensure that it was a safe location. (3/3)
