Every MCU Credits Scene Ranked From Worst To Best

36. Eternals - Blade

Eternals Kit Harington
Marvel Studios

Scene: Dane Whitman (Kit Harrington) opens a box to discover the Ebony Blade; an off-screen person asks if he's ready for it. This was later identified as Blade (Maharshala Ali), who will soon debut in the MCU.

This is another mixed bag of a credits scene.

On the one hand, it's an intriguing set-up for Blade but on the other hand, it's not made clear enough what's going on (those who don't know Blade won't get the references) and one of the film's less interesting characters (Dane Whitman) wasn't exactly who we wanted the film's final moments to focus on.

Also, why couldn't they have shown Blade on-screen? That would've made this scene clearer and improved it quite a bit.
