The Marvel Cinematic Universe has grown to be so extensive that there are superheroes inhabiting the franchise that have never crossed paths. However, plenty have been thrown together to face a common enemy, never on a bigger scale than Avengers: Endgame.

This was the conclusion of the Infinity Saga, and almost every live hero was on the battlefield. This allowed for team-ups and crossovers like never before. One such idea that the Russo Brothers implemented was that of an MCU A-Force. Namely, taking every female hero and putting them into the same scene whether it made sense or not.

The idea of the coming together on paper was excellent, and had it been executed better could have been one of the greatest moments of the entire movie. Instead, bringing them all together seemingly just because was supposed to be a great bit of fan service, but instead came off more as pandering.

It took far too long for the MCU to boast a female-led movie, and the complaints were loud and numerous. Unfortunately, instead of genuinely compelling stories with female characters at the forefront, this seemed like a quick fix that for most fans missed the mark. Hopefully, the team can be brought together properly in the future.
