MCU Is Dead. Long Live the MCU.

I said what I said.

Endgame was the end. Not metaphorically. Actually. The credits rolled and so did the magic.

Phase 4 felt like homework. Phase 5 feels like more homework. Remember when Marvel was FUN? When we lost our MINDS seeing Cap catch Mjolnir?

Now we get 12 shows, 7 movies, and a multiverse the writers don't understand.

Give me ONE great movie a year instead of 4 mid ones. And can we talk about the CGI? What happened to practical sets? Real suits?

That said — Guardians 3 was beautiful. No Way Home was peak. Loki s2 cooked.

Maybe the MCU isn't dead. Maybe it's figuring itself out.
