With all the flashbacks and in-universe video and all the time-travel in Avengers: Endgame, it's not difficult to think of points in time that have been depicted multiple times, such as:

  • Most of the times the heroes traveled to retrieve a Stone from the past

  • The instant of the Unsnappening, which simultaneously occurs while the main heroes are in Upstate New York and in the high school gym in Spider-Man: Far From Home

  • etc.

But, is there any point in time, which we see three, four, maybe even five or more times?

For the purpose of this question:

  • The instant must be known to be the same instant (not just likely to be the same time).

  • The instant can be still or video, part of the film or seen in-universe (diegetic or non-diegetic). However, supporting materials (posters) and parts outside the film (e.g. the Marvel splash screen or parts of the credits) are out. Post/mid-credits scenes are okay, of course.

  • Different timelines are okay, if we know it's the same instant.

    My money would be on the battle of New York, we see it in the Avengers, Endgame and Iron Man 3 off the top of my head, it might be shown in Ultron too.

    @JDoe: Good point!! However, do we know technically, whether they are the same time, or merely it is a sequence of time that keeps resetting its state (mostly) and occurs while no time passes in the real world? Does that question even make sense?

The Snap is shown at least 6 times.

  • Avengers: Infinity War - Wakanda (various scenes, could count more than once)
  • Avengers: Infinity War - Titan
  • Avengers: Infinity War - New York
  • Ant-Man and the Wasp - Los Angeles
  • Avengers: Endgame - Clint's [safe] house
  • Spider-Man: Far From Home - Midtown School of Science and Technology

We first see it in Avengers: Infinity War when Thanos snaps and we see how it affects various areas across the world: Wakanda, Titan and New York.

It is then shown in the post credits scene for Ant-Man and the Wasp.

We then see this again in the prologue to Avengers: Endgame and how it affected Clint and his family.

This is then shown again in Spider-Man: Far From Home in the in memorium video which shows the band and those in the stands being snapped away.

  • @ThePopMachine Wouldn’t surprise me but that depends on whether it counts as 3 or 5+ because of the different scenes and locations.

  • Scenes/locations counts if they are definitely simultaneous.

  • @ThePopMachine if I’m understanding you right this would count as at least 5 then I believe.

  • It would, if you can enumerate the instances, and we know they are not serial.

The deaths of Tony's parents in a car crash are seen four times, from different perspectives, in flashback and in video.

    Could you edit in the times they are seen? And if you can find it a video clip of each would be great.
