Hey folks. I had some spare time today and decided to come up with a timeline graph.
The smaller sections are the after credit scenes (except The Consultant, obviously).
What do you think? I know it's not exact, but am I close?

Re: Hulk and banishment, I think you all have missed the point. The problem with the Hulk in comics isn't that he's powerful. There's a bunch of people on the planet that can kick his ass, when the writer isn't jobbing him out.

The problem is that the Hulk is *insane*. Banner suffers from really, really bad MPD, with basically every personality having pathological impulse control issues. Many of the personalities have limited intelligence, whether childlike or animalistic. Some of the personalities have limited or no empathy. Some are compulsively destructive. Some are just plain outright irrational, with actions not correlating to causes in any discernable way.

Worst of all, the Hulk's dominant personality *changes*, in unpredictable ways. One day the Hulk is a simple minded outcast that just wants to be left alone. . . and then, suddenly, he decides to wage war on humanity. One day he's a stable, intelligent, nice guy. . . and then suddenly he decides to just smash everything up and kill everyone. One day, he's selfish but intelligent and rational. . . and then suddenly you have a mindless force of devastation wandering about.

The multiple Hulk personalities haven't been around for a number of years now, there's only really been one Hulk personality who has had time to grow as a charcter and in ways mature greatly, this Hulk is far from insane. All of his changes in mood were justified by someone else screwing around in his life, he didn't suddenly decide to wage war, his *friends* blasted him off into space against his will and then he was under the impression caused a massive explosion, wiping out a million of his people, we know now that was Miek but he didn't at the time. Before Planet Hulk he was perfectly happy and peaceful living out in the middle of no where, alone but then the Illuminati messed with that, he isn't some wild creature randomly deciding to smash stuff, 99 times out of 100 it's someone else interfering and provoking him.
 
I was under the assumption TIH was before IM2 since IM2 leads to Thor

I know why you're thinking that, because of Selvig's conversation about Banner, right?
But remember TIH starts with Banner already on the run (meaning Selvig's knowledge of him disapearing still applies because it happened prior to the events of TIH) and in IM2 Fury tells Tony he's got "other things to deal with", which I always thought meant Hulk (since the other thing happening was Thor and Son of Coul was dealing with that, not Fury).
Plus, wasn't there something on TIH that shows what's happening in Monte Carlo? Meaning that those stories overlap.
 
There was the news footage in IM2's last scene in the SHIELD safe house or whatever from TIH playing on one of the screens
 
At the end of IM2, when Fury is meeting with Stark, the are shots of the campus fight on the monitors, so at least a portion of TIH takes place prior to IM2 (or they run on a close timeline).

Well he said "I've got bigger problems than you in the Southwest region to deal with" and Thor's story is the only big event that took place in the Southwest region.

i forget the site, but there's one thats really detailed.... you'd probably like
 
I mean HUGE. Ultra hires sort of like what Freshman posted in the image threads

Hasn't been released yet. The textless posters can be found on Disney's press site. This one is there too but as a banner image for the site itself and not a downloadable image.
 
Right, so I got it backwards but the point is it's got to be around the same time...
Thing is, TIH can't be too much time before Thor because to Foster, Selvig and Darcy the thought of a man being a god was ludicrous. In a world after the events of TIH, with everything that happened in NY, you'd think they would have been more open to what Thor was telling them.
That's why I put those movies so close to each other, because it would make sense that the human characters in Thor wouldn't be aware that their World is not what they thought...

Didn't Kevin Feige say that comment was in reference to Hank Pym but they removed it to avoid confusion? I don't remember Selvig naming Banner, will have to go back and rewatch.

You're right he did say that...

Nope.
In that conversation Selvig originally mentioned both Banner and Pym.
Banner remained because Selvig mentions he was an expert in Gamma radiation.
What was dropped was Pym's actual name, because that's what Feige said would be too much to include in that scene. He's still mentioned, when Selvig said he'd email his friend and Darcy tells him they also took his laptop, he just doesn't say "Hank Pym".
