President of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, has already addressed the messy timeline:

“All of that debate has made us go, ‘Okay, at some point, I’m not sure exactlywhen,we’re going to publish a timeline and see what it all is. It wasn’t meant to flummox anybody exactly, and I’m not sure I’d do it again the same way, but it does all connect to where we placed it. Other than very particular instances where there’s anewspaper,or verbal reference to years, we never date the films. And I think there’s a presumption, ‘Well if the movie came out in November 2017, it must take place in November 2017’ — which is not the case.”

Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
