Doctor Strange: 7 Post-Credits Scenes They Should Have Used

7. A Captain Marvel Tease

Of Marvel's meaty upcoming slate, Captain Marvel is the project that we know the least about. Since the film was first announced, all we've been given is a funky, bold-red logo and the news that newly minted Oscar-winner Brie Larson will assume the title role - and that's it.

But with a character as obscure and unknown as this one is, at least to mainstream audiences (the people who contribute the majority of box-office dollars), Marvel would be wise to start cluing them in soon, and Doctor Strange was the perfect place to do it.

The two have crossed paths in the comics before, teaming up to take down Sir Warren Traveler, so they're not entirely unrelated - but since when do Marvel's post-credits scenes directly relate to the films in which they appear? Rarely!

It wouldn't have had to be much either - just enough to get people talking, frantically Googling the Internet for answers when they get home. A brief flash of the new costume, a short scene with Carol Danvers (Captain Marvel's true identity) or a shot of Tony Stark researching a potential new Avengers candidate on a computer, perhaps.

Captain Marvel's still over two years away so we won't be given anything truly substantial, but we've been getting Thanos teases since 2012 and his first full movie appearance won't be until 2018. So why couldn't something similar have happened here?
