Can Dr. Strange use the time-looping strategy on Thanos the way he did against Dormammu?

No, he cannot

Even if he succeeds, it will have no effect on Thanos.

What Doctor Strange did to Dormammu is heavily misunderstood.

Dr Strange attempted to halt Dormammu's attack by reversing time. However, it was unsuccessful against Dormammu because he was simply out of time. Even reversing all of Earth's time wouldn't be able to save him.

As a result, Dr Strange chose this strategy: he locked himself in a time loop, which implies that if he is killed, his time will be reset to the moment before he did it. However, because he couldn't change Dormammu's time, it will appear that the same thing is happening to him over and over again. Dr Strange will experience his “I’ve come to bargain” death only once in every loop, while for Dormammu, it will become an annoying repeat.

Because Thanos is a physical creature who is not beyond time, if Dr Strange tries this on him, he will not have the same experience as Dormammu. He'll have the same experience as Dr. Strange, with the cycle resetting every time it repeats itself. Thanos is considerably more likely to violently seize the time gem from Dr Strange during one of those cycles and exit the loop, leaving Strange occupied in the loop.

Dormammu was beyond time, and Strange used this exact thing against him.

Why does Thor respect Captain America so much?

Thor respects Captain America much more compared to the other Avengers. In fact i would say Thor respect Cap the most in all of the MCU. Thor attacked Captain America when they first met, but Captain America did not attack him. Captain America simply defended himself to bring the conflict to a close. Steve didn't add to the tension by yelling at Thor. Steve wasn't cocky when Thor was knocked back, and he tried to deescalate the situation. "Are we done here?" Steve inquired. His body language clearly indicated that he does not want to fight, but that he will if forced to. Thor relaxed a little and agrees. Thor most likely admires and respects Steve's humble demeanour. So much so that Thor, a god-like entity, agreed to carry out Steve's commands. Steve is injured during the Battle of New York, but he recovers. When Thor asks Steve if he's ready for more, instead of quitting, Steve simply answers "what. I am just getting started." Thor, on the ot...

What if Steve had gone to Titan with Tony in Infinity War?

The issue with the Titan battle was that it was being directed by two haughty individuals who were unwilling to cooperate. They were destined to be dysfunctional with a team that had such a wide range of fighting techniques. You can see Iron Man and Star-Lord mirroring each other's positions during the negotiation. None of them were prepared to set aside their egos or act honorably by remaining cool and collected. Captain America is a take-charge leader, and war strategies are frequently left in his capable hands. People who are familiar with him have come to the conclusion that he is the ideal leader to follow. In essence, Star-Lord would engage Captain America in conversation rather than Iron Man first. Where Quill would get a strong sense of leadership from him. Either that, or Peter Quill would be familiar with Captain America because he is Earth-born and possibly a fan. In either case, I believe Quill would see his lack of authority. Iron Man and Star-Lord would certainl...

Which Avenger would be the scariest if turned evil?

Who would be the scariest is the question being posed here, not who would be the most powerful. It's a challenging question. However, I believe I would have to choose Captain America. I can imagine you shaking your head at me. How is Cap a more terrifying antagonist than, say, the Hulk, Doctor Strange, or Scarlet Witch? That's easy. Captain America is the character I chose since he is the least corruptible. Consider this. The other Avengers members are amply demonstrated to be humanly fallible: Who knows what sort of things Black Widow did while she worked against SHIELD. After losing his family, Hawkeye turned into a ronin who slaughtered criminals with shocking brutality. Iron Man, who has occasionally shown himself to be incredibly egotistical and conceited, he also created Ultron. If Hulk is not restrained, he becomes a monster. As a result of his disobedience and arrogance, Thor has a tendency to brag and has spent a good deal of time being unworthy. Captain America not so...
