10 Most Confusing Scenes In MCU History

10. Gamora Is Chosen - What If...?

Like WandaVision, What If…? is the only other Disney+ series from the MCU to date to feature nine episodes. The first eight each introduced a new universe, and a new particular character, with the season finale bringing them all together to fight Ultron.

The ninth episode opened with a montage of The Watcher choosing the likes of Captain Carter, Star-Lord, and Thor, but he also chose a character not yet seen in the series. Gamora, survivor of Sakaar, and destroyer of Thanos, along with a Tony Stark Variant in painted Hulkbuster armour on Nidavellir, was also brought into the team.

She was the only one of the Guardians of the Multiverse who hadn’t had an entire episode dedicated to her universe and her story, and so when she was introduced alongside Tony in ridiculously different circumstances, there was clearly an explanation needed, but none given. In fairness, this was through no fault of Marvel.

The worldwide pandemic affected the MCU just like everyone else on the planet, and time constraints forced an episode to be dropped from the season one slate. Gamora and Tony’s story was supposed to be told before the season finale, but instead they seemingly came out of nowhere to the confusion of many fans watching.
