hey Collider fans John Rocha here! Well Avengers Endgame has finally begun its
world domination and we thought it might be a good idea to answer a question that
a lot of fans had walking out of the theater exactly what kind of power does
the Infinity Gauntlet allow its user to wield oh by the way this is a spoiler
heavy video so if you haven't seen the movie yet this is your last chance to
stop or pause this video ok as we all saw Tony Stark and the Hulk pulled off
snaps of their own afterthe annos pulled his at the end of infinity war Stark
absolutely dusted Thanos and his entire conquering army at the end of endgame
and maybe new Gamora - jury is still out on that one starts dusting certainly
included the Black Order who just can't seem to stay alive in these movies
Hulk's nap brought everyone back except for Black Widow who he was desperate to
bring back anyways fans are now asking how will start able to just dust Thanos
army and not half the universe does the Galil allow you to snap into existence
or out of existence whatever you want as Hulk trying to do with Black Widow to
answer these questions we must take a look at the power of the six Infinity
stones or gems individually before we examine their combined power in the
gauntlet the gauntlet contains the blue space stone which creates interstellar
bridges portals or wormholes to other parts of the universe it powered hydras
weapons and gave Captain Marvel her powers the yellow mine stone is used to
control mines it powered vision and gave Scarlet Witch her powers it can also
give the user telekinesis the purple power stone allows its wielder to
destroy planets and gives the user enhanced strength as we saw with Ronan
in guardians of the galaxy and an endgame when Thanos pull the stone out
of the gauntlet to punch Captain Marvel the red reality stone aka the ether
turns matter into dark matter grants the bearer temporary power over reality and
alters the natural laws of the universe the green time stone which accelerates
or reverses time as we saw on Doctor Strange gives the user the vision to see
numerous timelines see what I did there the vision I never mind and finally the
orange soul stone which we saw on the planet warmer we know to acquire it one
must sacrifice a loved one in the comics this stone also gives the owner
limitless manipulation of souls both alive and the ability to evolve our
evolve a beings physical self as well as their mental capacities that's a
powerful stone and many people consider that the most dangerous stone of all the
six throughout the history of the comics plenty of villains and heroes from
Thanos to Magus to Galactus to Doctor Strange to Black Panther to Ultron to
even mr. fantastic of the Fantastic Four hmm
Fantastic Four have sought to possess or use the gauntlet it provides the user
the ability to control all reality and enact almost any plan the user wants to
use it for Marvel lore says that the Infinity Gauntlet grants of virtual
omnipotence to its wearer within the rules of the stones so yes
Ironman could absolutely use it to just snap Dennis's army out of existence
because that's what he wanted but Hulk could not snap Black Widow back because
it violates the rules of the stones ironically in the comics Iron Man and
Captain America have wielded the gauntlet without deadly results it does
not always scar the user as who he's seen in the last two movies in fact that
might have been added by the Russos to lay the groundwork for Tony starts
eventual passing in the film the only drawback to the gauntlet is that it will
not work outside of the universe from which it originates yes people there are
multiple universes and multiple infinity gauntlets in the comic books just a
little tidbit for you in case we get to phase eight of the MCU or something and
we open the door to multiple universes also the only beings with powers that
are greater than the gauntlet are the Living Tribunal and the one above all
but that's a video for another day perhaps okay that's our Infinity
Gauntlet powers explained video hope you enjoyed it and we answered your
questions about its power and what the wielder of it can create or destroy let
