Others also commented this. I don't watch superhero movies, but I'm interested, what is the reference, why do you think this?

Why did they ignore the 180-degree rule? Also, didn't DB Cooper jump at night? Isn't Loki also like a thousand years old, how would he be young in the 1970s?

He has used magic disguises multiple times in the movies.
