** In "Endgame", he was in the middle of a battle for the fate of the universe, so he had more pressing issues on his mind. Plus Mjolnir in that battle technically wasn't his, it was his alternate self's that he was borrowing.

*** ''Except'' that they could have just as easily made Infinity Conez work if it was a "Tony Stark Memorial" shop, considering he saved the universe with the stones but chose Thanos for who-knows-why. Additionally, just because certain very wrong people may agree with Thanos, it still makes no sense that they'd have a major shop celebrating/lampooning his atrocities in a populated city, just like a 9/11 Ice Cream shop doesn't exist. Honestly, it was just a bad joke in poor taste, both in universe and by the filmmaker.

** Could also be that Sif's arm is being crafted and built to her specific needs, which is taking time. Think the difference between being able to quickly fit a basic prosthetic versus getting one specifically made to fit, say, rock climbing

** Even if a prosthetic is available, Sif may want to prove to herself that she can still fight well without one. Prosthetics can malfunction, after all.


Added DiffLines:

** Even an Asgardian is liable to need time to recuperate after an injury that extreme. For all we know, Valkyrie ''ordered'' Sif to stay behind and recover.

** Some people just feel the need to jot down their lists, plans, and ideas. Love ''draws'' on practically everything in reach; a scribbling compulsion probably runs in the family.

** Not to mention that Bifrost, itself, was out of commission during the early part of the Infinity Saga when Thanos was finalizing his plans. And it was only restored to full operation because the Chitauri invasion ''failed'' and the Tesseract wound up in Odin's hands, facilitating its restoration. If the All-Father himself could only jury-rig ''one'' use of the Rainbow Bridge by ramming mega-loads of dark energy through the Bifrost's fractured remains, Thanos probably figured gathering the Stones one by one was more feasible.

** Presumably, the pieces of Mjolnir are still lying there because nobody but Thor (and later Jane) can move them. They aren't elevated because the New Asgard tourism-board raised the ground; they've lowered the ground ''around'' the patch of grass where Hela left the hammer's pieces lying, so visitors can view them closer to eye level. The dome over the top was to stop tourists from swiping the ''grass around'' the fragments.

** None of the Guardians are anywhere near to Thor and the other gods when it comes to their power level. Given how powerful Gorr is shown to be, Thor probably thought that going against him with the Guardians would have been a suicide mission for them, so he didn't want to ask them. Also, since Gorr was only threatening gods and no one else in the universe, Thor probably felt this is was a problem the gods themselves need to fix, without involving mortals who have no stake in the conflict.

** Until Sif becomes accustomed to only having one arm she's a liability in combat. Her fighting style and especially her instincts all need time to adjust to her new situation. She'd not only be functioning at below normal but she'd be endangering her allies who would have to compensate for her mistakes. Valkyrie is a mighty warrior at full power and functionality and would almost certainly have people ready to take over for her at least for a while.

** The other gods could easily be SufficientlyAdvancedAliens too. Different cultures on Earth have a very diverse range of definitions for godhood, and Omnipotence City seems to house gods from all over the universe.

[[folder: Guardians of the Galaxy]]
* After their failure to get help from gods, why didn't Thor ask the Guardians of the Galaxy for help? He couldn't ask the Avengers; they seem to have disbanded, and of the originals, Iron Man and Black Widow were dead, Captain America was old, the Hulk injured, and Hawkeye retired. However, he'd worked with the Guardians for some time. Sure, most of them were annoyed with him , but Thor seemed oblivious to that, and the Guardians would have helped a former teammate.

answering a question about the key to eternity

Added DiffLines:

** ''Bifrost'' is the key, not Stormbreaker. It just so happens that now that Heimdall is gone, one of the easiest ways to summon Bifrost is Stormbreaker. Especially when one considers that Gorr has been trying to lure Thor in anyway.

[[folder: Wishes for Thors]]
* Jane and Thor reached Eternity. Why didn't either of them make a wish?
** It was explicitly said that the first person to reach Eternity would get a wish, not that anyone who reached Eternity would get a wish. Gorr got there first, Thor and Jane didn't, ergo, Gorr gets his wish.
