10 Ways The MCU Isn't For You Anymore

1. The MCU Can't Match The Hype Of Avengers: Endgame

Because Avengers: Endgame was built up for a decade, it felt like there was no conceivable way it could live up to the hype.

But the final battle between Earth's mightiest heroes and Thanos didn't match expectations - it exceeded them. This showdown wasn't just cool or badass - it was a monumental feat in storytelling.

Unfortunately, the MCU seems to be a victim of its own success. After stopping the most powerful villain in existence from wiping out the universe, where can you go from there? Now, that's not suggesting that Marvel instalments in the future won't be epic. In fact, the seeds have already been sowed that the entire multiverse will be in jeopardy in future instalments.

But will such stories have the same impact as Avengers: Endgame? Is it even possible? Although the Marvel Cinematic Universe is sure to have plenty of emotionally-driven storylines, meme-creating quips, and sensational battles, it's won't hit us the same way.

Just to be clear, the fact that people are starting to tire of the franchise isn't Marvel Studios fault. But when we reach the 47th entry in the MCU, we won't experience the same level of wonder as before.
