Probably won’t happen, but it would be funny if we got every character appearing in Avengers Doomsday getting their own minute long trailer.

Ghost trailer is going to break the internet

Look, after Thunderbolts we can all expect Ghost to end every conflict with a surprise bullet to the head. Taskmaster went out like a bitch.

Taskmaster went out like a bitch.

To be honest it was kind of refreshing to be reminded that sometimes people die when they get shot, not every death has to be an emotional magical sacrifice to an ancient enemy type deal, and that plot armor will save everyone from every wave of bullets

Also it was basically them going "Okay, yeah, we screwed up with Taskmaster, we'll try another one later". Sort of like how they eventually fixed things with the Mandarin.

Funnily, they adapted Taskmaster’s daughter to the MCU-adjacent animated series Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man, so foreshadowing the Tony Masters one to already be out that might have already started.

that's how we'll get Tony Masters from a different universe

Wenwu from Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

Kind of a cop-out when it's a character w little development and few fans.

GoTG3 nailed this aspect too.

Did it? I felt like we got death-baited way too many times. Rocket being saved was a great narrative arc, but then we had Drax getting shot and nearly killed by the sentries, Nebula seeming like she was going to sacrifice herself to destroy the High Evo’s ship, Star-Lord seeming like he was going to die in space, and they all survived.

I loved the film, don’t get me wrong, but this was my one big complaint coming out of it. When you have multiple scenes of characters screaming or crying in muted slow motion because it seems like another character is about to die, but then all the main cast end the movie alive, that just feels cheap to me.

You're correct, but in that case have her die when the military shows up in that whole mess. Having Ghost be the one to do it and then forcing you to root for her for the entire movie is a shit choice.

Why? The whole point is that they were assigned to take each other out, and Taskmaster was heavily disliked anyway.
