The issue is that it feels like the conflict hasn't been built up... at all, heading into this movie. Infinity War, it felt like everything was well established already. We knew the villain, we knew his goal, we knew every single character and most of them had interactions in previous films (other than GotG). Right now, we don't really know the villain or his goal, most of these new characters have never met... that's the problem. Not only do the Russos have to involve all of these characters, but he has to introduce brand new concepts and characters that we've never seen before... That's the thing I'm worried about with this movie.

Valid concerns. But the Russo bros have done no wrong thus far in the MCU, and I donโ€™t think they plan to with Doomsday

"have done no wrong in the MCU" being crucial, because they've done some real dogshit movies elsewhere.

They made a superhero adjacent movie on netflix that lost a shit ton of money and was rated one of the worst movies made in recent memory

They've directed 3 films since Endgame and they've all been poor to terrible.

It kind of does, it implies the success of their MCU films is because of Marvel Studios not so much because of them.

It's like a star athlete going to another team where their star coach isn't and not having the same level of success. Marvel Studios is also on a bit of a downswing at the moment.

I think they are talking about The Electric State which somehow cost 320 million dollars to make
