A number of the plots in Marvel Cinematic Universe phase two have been needlessly messy, to the extent that it's actually quite bizarre when you think about it. Take Iron Man 3 for example - what was actually going on in the story? What was the villain's ultimate aim and why? Look at Thor: The Dark World - why exactly was the Convergence happening? And look at Captain America: The Winter Soldier - why is there so much technical jargon and why are there so many references to plans, projects and initiatives that have no relevance to the current Marvel Cinematic Universe? Basically, the films aren't necessarily difficult to follow, but if you're actually tasked with writing a simple synopsis about them all, you'll see the point being made here.
