25 TV Show Trivia Questions That’ll Start at Least One Argument at Your Table
You've watched thousands of hours of television. These 25 tv show trivia questions will reveal exactly how much of it your brain actually kept.
30 Avengers Trivia Questions That Separate the Casual Fans from the Ones Who Cried in Endgame
Before the Portals Opened
The person who searches for Avengers trivia already knows who dies. They know the stones, the snap, the “I am Iron Man.” They’ve seen the movies multiple times. What they don’t realize is how much they’ve let the memes replace the actual memories. I’ve watched tables of self-proclaimed Marvel superfans argue for three minutes about which Infinity Stone is which color, completely certain, completely wrong. That confidence is the best raw material a trivia question can have.
These 30 questions are built around that gap between what you’re sure you know and what actually happened on screen. Some will feel easy. Some will make you angry at yourself. A few might start an argument you won’t finish tonight.
The Ones You Think You Know
1. In the first Avengers film (2012), what alien race makes up Loki’s invading army during the Battle of New York?
Everyone remembers the invasion. Almost nobody remembers the name. I’ve heard “Skrulls” more times than I can count, which is wrong in a way that gets more interesting once you’ve seen Secret Invasion.
2. What is the name of Tony Stark’s AI assistant before he switches to F.R.I.D.A.Y.?
This one’s a warm-up, but it sets a trap for the next question.
3. J.A.R.V.I.S. eventually becomes which Avenger?
Now the room splits. People who saw Age of Ultron once in theaters sometimes blank on this entirely. People who saw it twice feel a little smug. Both groups tend to forget it happened in the same movie Ultron was created.
4. What does Tony Stark call the shawarma restaurant moment at the end of the first Avengers?
Trick framing on this one. He doesn’t call it anything. But people will invent a quote on the spot.
5. In the original Avengers, which teammate does Thor fight first when he arrives on Earth?
Two characters are going to pop into your head immediately. Only one is right.
The Memory Gets Slippery Here
6. What is Clint Barton’s (Hawkeye’s) wife’s name?
The Barton family reveal in Age of Ultron genuinely surprised audiences. But remembering the wife’s actual name? That’s where the superfan badge gets tested.
7. How many Infinity Stones are there?
I include this because you’d be amazed how often someone confidently says five. Or seven. The number feels like it should be something else.
8. What color is the Soul Stone?
And here’s where the confidence from the last question evaporates. I’ve run this at events where people who just correctly named all six stones cannot agree on the colors.
9. On which planet does Thanos sacrifice Gamora to obtain the Soul Stone?
The name sounds like it belongs in a different franchise, which is probably why it sticks for some people and completely vanishes for others.
10. Who is the guardian of the Soul Stone on Vormir?
This is one of my favorite reactions to watch in a room. People who remember it get this flash of recognition across their face, like they’re surprised the movie actually did that.
The Ones That Start Arguments
11. In Avengers: Endgame, what food does Tony Stark’s daughter Morgan say she wants?
This is a line people quote constantly. But they quote it wrong about half the time.
12. Who says “I can do this all day” first in the MCU: Steve Rogers or someone else?
It’s always been Steve’s line. But asking “or someone else” makes half the room second-guess themselves, which is exactly the point.
13. In Endgame, when Captain America wields Mjolnir, which move does he perform that Thor never did in any previous film?
This separates the people who cheered from the people who were paying attention while they cheered.
14. How many years pass during the time jump in Avengers: Endgame?
People always want to say ten. The actual number feels both too short and too long.
15. Which Avenger does Thanos personally kill (not snap) in Infinity War?
There are two correct answers here, and most people only remember one of them. The room always erupts when someone names both.
Deeper Than You Expected
16. What is the name of the fictional country where Wanda and Pietro Maximoff are from?
If you’ve watched WandaVision, this is automatic. If you’re purely a movie person, it might take a second.
17. In Age of Ultron, Ultron quotes which specific line from Pinocchio?
James Spader’s delivery of this line is burned into my brain. It’s one of those moments where the villain becomes genuinely unsettling.
18. What is Black Widow’s real first name?
This should be easy. It’s said dozens of times across the franchise. But under pressure, people hesitate between two names, and that hesitation is the whole game.
19. Before becoming the Hulk, what type of radiation was Bruce Banner exposed to?
The MCU never dwells on this the way the comics do, so it catches people off guard when they realize they might not actually know.
20. What is the name of Thor’s homeworld?
Breather question. Everyone needs one. But I’ve seen overconfident players misspell it on paper and lose a point, which is its own kind of poetry.
Where Confidence Goes to Die
21. In the original Avengers, what is the name of the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier’s main operations room?
Nobody knows this. I include it because the guesses are always entertaining. People start inventing military-sounding words.
22. Which Avenger does Loki brainwash at the beginning of the first Avengers film?
Two people, actually. But one of them is an Avenger, and that’s who I’m asking about.
23. What does the acronym S.H.I.E.L.D. stand for?
I’ve watched people who own S.H.I.E.L.D. merchandise fail this question. The acronym is long enough that your brain gives up halfway through and fills in words that sound right but aren’t.
24. In Endgame, what game is Thor playing when the Avengers come to recruit him in New Asgard?
This is a detail that people either remember vividly or have completely blocked out along with the rest of “Fat Thor.”
25. Who directed the first two Avengers films?
This used to be the easiest question in any Marvel set. Now it carries a different weight, and people hesitate to say the name, which tells you something about how quickly context shifts around a piece of trivia.
26. In Infinity War, Doctor Strange says he looked forward in time and saw how many possible future outcomes of the coming conflict?
People always round this number. The actual figure is oddly specific, which is what makes it stick if you were really listening.
27. Which actor played the Hulk in the MCU before Mark Ruffalo took over?
There’s a version of this question that’s harder: asking which actor played the Hulk in the 2003 Ang Lee film, which isn’t MCU. But this one still trips people up because the 2008 Incredible Hulk feels like it happened in a different universe.
The Final Stretch
28. What are the first two words of the Avengers’ rallying cry, spoken in full for the first time by Captain America in Endgame’s final battle?
You’re hearing it in your head right now. You can see the scene. Chris Evans, facing Thanos’s entire army. But can you get the exact words?
29. In total, how many MCU films feature the word “Avengers” in the title?
Count them on your fingers. You’ll probably get to three and then either add one or stop. Both instincts are wrong in different directions depending on the person.
30. What is the very last sound you hear in Avengers: Endgame, after the Marvel Studios logo fades to black?
I save this one for last because it does something no other question in this set does. It doesn’t test what you watched. It tests what you stayed for. There’s no post-credits scene in Endgame. Just darkness and a sound that most people in the theater didn’t even register because they were already reaching for their coats or wiping their eyes. But if you heard it, you know exactly what it is, and you know exactly what it means. It’s the sound of a story that started in a cave, with a man building something impossible, and it’s the last time the franchise lets you sit with that.
After 6 years of writing music trivia from Nashville, TN, I've developed a theory: the best music questions are the ones where someone at every table is absolutely certain they know it, and about half of them are wrong.
