10 Things Marvel Wants You To Forget About The MCU

3. Vision's Power Being Nerfed

One of the big criticisms of the early Marvel movies was that the heroes didn't really have interesting powers. Vision's introduction in Age of Ultron was perhaps a way of the filmmakers over-compensating for that fact.

Powered by an actual Infinity Stone, Vision is ridiculously powerful in that second Avengers movie, to the point where he can phase through any attack, easily take out hundreds of androids and even lift Thor's hammer. With him in the team, there was seemingly no threat powerful enough to take the heroes down, something which the filmmakers must have realised once that movie hit theatres.

The next time he shows up is in Civil War, where he's not really involved in any of the fighting and has started wearing sweaters and using his powers to create sick dishes over the stove.

Even worse, in Infinity War his ability to phase through attacks is nullified, and he spends pretty much the entire movie injured or on an operating table.

That would be excusable if it was any other character, but Vision is powered by an Infinity Stone, so him suddenly being weaker contradicts just how powerful those artefacts are supposed to be.
