She-Hulk: Attorney At Law - 11 Questions We're Left With After Season 1's Finale
1. Will The Finale Actually Impact The Wider MCU?
The season one finale of She-Hulk did something no MCU property has ever done before. It not only turned the microscope on itself, calling out some of its biggest criticisms from fans, it actually agreed with them and changed the storyline of the show accordingly.
When Jen spoke to K.E.V.I.N, she told the AI robot that not every final piece in the MCU needed to have plot, action, and CGI thrown at it. This was a personal story to Jen, and though they may have been smaller stakes than the end of the universe, they were her stakes.
This was an incredibly brave tact from the writers, but now it seems that Marvel Studios has no choice but to back up what Jen said. Never again can a good movie be dampened by an out-of-place CGI-fest final piece merely for the sake of it.
However, whether or not Kevin Feige and co. choose to stick to these rules is another matter. There are plenty more projects set to release over the next few years, with 11 movies and at least 7 series coming before the end of Phase Six, but what are the odds of none of these falling into the same traps as were called out by Jen?
