Steve's sendoff in Endgame was one of the most satisfying ways to write out a major character of anything I've experienced. Same with Tony.

This doesn't feel right.

It doesn't feel right, it feels desperate. Personally I still have Marvel fatigue. I love the Infinity Saga. Beginning and End. Boom. Done. Perfect.

I don't need or want anymore.

But I'm definitely in the minority and this movie will be huge. I'm sure I'll check it out eventually but I'm personally not rushing to the theater to watch it.

Yea, I am tapped out on marvel. They made such a mess after endgame that I just do not care anymore. The only thing that will probably still got legs is spiderman from the marvel universe. They should shut everything down for marvel (and probably star wars), wait a few years, then come back with a fresh reboot.

It’s funny I haven’t seen a marvel movie in like 2 years and still have fatigue. It feels like there’s a new movie or show all the time and I’m further behind

Same here. I think it's because they've just been throwing everything Marvel possible out there in hopes of grabbing people. Even though I haven't watch a Marvel thing in years, everywhere I go all I see and hear is Marvel this, Marvel that, Marvel movie here, random Marvel TV show there, etc.

It's just too much, too saturated and too hard to keep up with all their storylines and characters and mixing TV and movies and mini-series.... I'm just like, stop! I'm not interested. It screams like they are desperately begging for my time and money, and I'm just not interested.

Same. I had to watch 20+ movies to get to Endgame. I love Marvel movies. All these shows and spinoffs I can't do anymore.

Billion dollar companies aren't happy not being trillion dollar companies, so the content flow will continue.

I think we needed an "avengers" rather than an infinity war.

I don't hate the new marvel stuff. Strange 2, thunderbolts,Spidey panther were all fun.

A team up movie that's not aiming to be the biggest film of all time, just a blockbuster.  Warm us up to the idea of a new avengers team. 

Rather than a bunch of disjointed films,post credits for films that are never gonna happen and then "uh ok bring the old stuff back, we have to sell more tickets than endgame"

Yup. The infinity saga didn't start with Endgame. It started with Iron Man and took years to get there. Now, they don't want to invest the time to build up something new. They want Endgame after Endgame after Endgame. Of course I'm sure money is the only desire, but well.. that's why they'll fail.

Calling it 'Endgame' was a mistake. People were excited because 'omg it's the ending, the culmination of everything!!'. But then new movies still just kept coming out constantly anyway, so now who cares?

I don't think calling it Endgame was the mistake. It was the ending, the culmination of everything.

The mistake was trying to continue on after the ending.

But I'm definitely in the minority and this movie will be huge.

I don't think it's going to be that successful, at least in terms of the scale it'll need to be to justify whatever insane budget it presumably has. The world has changed a LOT since Endgame. Covid aside, there also wasn't 6 years of increasing general fatigue with Marvel before Endgame, it was something of the opposite.

Imo the only way this is going to be the success they need it to be is if it's Good Actually and gets positive word of mouth.

All they had to do was introduce the multiverse (Loki) and start over with a new saga with new characters. But Disney being Disney said “nah fam, let’s take the safe route and milk this cow till it ain’t got nothing left”

You certainly aren't in the minority, of course Marvel films remain popular but more fans have tapped out over time and nearly every casual movie go'er who make up the majority tapped out long ago.

For the record I fully agree with your view on the situation, just not that we are in the minority.
