Captain America: Civil War - 10 Ways It Must Set Up Phase Three
10. Introduce Another Infinity Stone
Its no secret that the climax of Phase Three will be a massive celestial showdown against the mad titan Thanos. Hell presumably be armed with the Infinity Gauntlet but in order for it to function, hes going to need all six infinity stones, the problem with that plan is that they havent all been introduced yet. The soul stone and the time stone are both unaccounted for and ones introduction in Civil War would go to great lengths to shoring up the set up for Thanos. The obvious problem is that neither of these objects would seem to belong in the more grounded, Earth-bound narrative of Civil War. Whether it plays a prominent role in the proceedings or simply appears in a stinger during the credits, these objects might be the most important thing in the MCU at the moment. As such, it's hard to imagine Marvel putting out a film this big and not addressing the upcoming importance of the stones.
