[[WMG: Loki may have been influenced by the scepter, but he wasn't being controlled.]]
The Scepter exacerbated his resentment and superiority complex, and occasionally put thoughts in his head-but [[MoreThanMindControl it never forced him do anything]], or even took control of him. He ''was'' being influenced, and he might not have chosen to do those things if he wasn't under its thrall-but everything he did was still technically of his own free will.

* Alternately, Cap will die through some honorable means, and his shield will be imbued with the same magic as Mjölnir. Since Vance Astro is bound to appear in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'', he will be the next person to be worthy to wile it.

Picture it: MCU's version of Ashley Johnson was struggling in New York. Sure, she had a few big roles like [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans Terra]], but a string of bad gigs in New York led the struggling actress with a job as a waitress, who happened to be working at a restaurant on 4 May 2012. Having experienced the bravery of Captain America in his fight against the invaders, she gains newfound confidence in life and moves back to California, where she participates in a TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons campaign that her friend [[Creator/MatthewMercer Matt]] was DMing for her friend [[Creator/LiamObrien Liam's]] birthday...

[[WMG: Alexander Pierce planned to nuke New York anyway.]]
Director Pierce, secretly in Hydra's pocket, saw the Avengers as an obstacle to Hydra's plans and convinced the Council that the nuclear option was their only choice to protect the world. He wanted to use the convenient Chitauri invasion to eliminate both threats, and use the destruction of New York to rattle the world enough to make it easier for Hydra to wrest control from the world's governments. When Iron Man was able to dispose of the nuke into Chitauri space, Pierce moved forward with [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier Project: Insight.]]

*** Definitely jossed by ''Film/AntMan''. The first Wasp (Janet) couldn't appear in either this film or ''Age of Ultron'' due to [[spoiler: being trapped in the Quantum Realm]], and the second one (Hope) wasn't even active at the time ''The Avengers'' came out.

* I had a similar thought. Considering how risky the invasion plan was to begin with (YMMV on that, but see the Headscratchers page for a long, long discussion of its flaws), Unless Loki [[VillainBall got dumber between movies]], he was probably aware all along that his plan could easily fail and even if it succeeded he'd just be a vassal to a BiggerBad that was strong and getting even stronger. But directly due to Loki's attack in this movie, a confrontation between [[spoiler:Thanos]] and the Avengers is likely. If the Avengers win, then the force that traumatized Loki in unspecified ways between movies has been punished and there's a cosmic EvilPowerVacuum he can step into. If [[spoiler: Thanos]] wins, Earth is really, really doomed, so Loki would have RevengeByProxy on Thor for the events of [[{{Film/Thor}} Thor]]. Either way, Loki arguably winds up ''better off'' than if his invasion had won.

[[WMG: Phil Coulson is part Asgardian, a distant cousin of Thor.]]
Coulson > Culson. - Cul is Odin's brother, thus Phil Coulsons name follows the same naming schema as Thor Odinson. A name inherited from a distant asgardian ancestor.

to:

[[WMG: Loki deliberately had Eric Selvig install the failsafe into the portal device.]]
Eric was under the influence of the septer when he built the device so he couldn't have created the failsafe unless Loki ordered it done.

Loki could have done this because he didn't trust Thanos and wanted to be able to shut the portal down if something other than an army came out or if the army did not obey his orders, perhaps coming through under another General instead (perhaps the Dark Order).

Alternatively his intention could have been to get stopped by the Avengers all along because he had a change of heart after meeting Thanos and needed an excuse to both get away from thanos and not return any infinity stones to Thanos without looking like he had stabbed Thanos in the back. Getting tossed into Asgardian jail seems like a convincing cover and he might either have predicted the Dark Elves and counted on their attack causing enough chaos to escape or had an alternate plan to get out eventually and fake his death.
