Why did Quicksilver here even bother to put his music on if this scene is in the timespan of a fraction of a second? Does he have some specialized headphones or something?
in Marvel

To make a cool action scene
Because much like the song, his power can “put time in a bottle” so to speak.
Also that is a good question haha maybe he has a x999 speed setting somewhere for when he runs
He recorded all of his music at super speed. Even when moving slow he can process sound and light at super speed.
From a great X Men writer:
**“Adults…struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it’s not real.”**
-Grant Morrison
Speed force?…. Nevermind… Wrong universe.
Time compression, not speed.
If it was speed, a few things would be different…
1> The plate he throws would not stop in midair after releasing it
2> The various knives in the air would not move for a moment then stop, they would continue moving
3> He would be leaving a trail of flame behind him exactly like that left by a meteor
4> The soup he samples would have become an incandescent plasma from the impact
5> The newspapers he slides across would not behave like normal displaced paper and then stop moving, they would ignite from the friction
6> The impact of the raindrops on his glasses would shatter them, not to mention the impacts on his body
7> When he moves the bullets off-course, they would continue on the new course set for them, not continue on the old trajectory just offset by the push
…. well shit, I never thought about that lol
Time is relative. The casset player is also moving as quickly as he is. This could conceivably mean that the music is unaltered.
Funnily enough , fictional superheroes do a lot of unexplainable things .
From his observational frame of reference the music is just as fast as he is since the music device and headphones are traveling with him.
Sped up music
Maybe he put it on fast forward ?
I just rewatched this the other night.
With Nixon in office, at the latest the year is 1974, although the Vietnam/Saigon tie-in more likely makes it 1973.
At any rate, the cassette walkman didn’t exist until 1979.
So, is he listening to a radio?
I believe there is an aura around him that affects things to be in the same speed as him, hence his clothes did ot just fall off as well.
He controls the speed of anything he touches as well, otherwise he wouldn’t even be able to move or otherwise affect his surroundings.
I believe this is where Michael Bay would say “shut the fuck up”.
Because time is relative and the music is moving at the same speed he is. So it’s a couple minutes for him but a fraction of a second for the people around him.
If the things he wears/uses are moving as fast as he does then ***it should work*** , I’m not educated enough to explain it, but the Lorentz transformation is involved.
He only listens to nightcore
cause it’s cool as hell lol
