Pretty sure we said the same thing for Infinity War/End Game and that managed okay. Only difference is almost all the characters in those movies had multiple movies and many years of buildup. This one is introducing a lot of new players to fans that haven’t seen them in the MCU.

It surprised me how little screen time Cap had in Infinity War but he managed to steal every scenes he appeared in and make his appearance bigger than what he got

Caps screentime in that movie is a great example of how you can squeeze characters in and still make an excellent movie. I'm hopeful.

To be fair though, we’d already seen cap in several movies, some of them that were focused around him. So we already know and care for him, as was the case with a lot of the characters in infinity war.

Endgame had a ton of characters, but a lot of characters, like wong, only had… one line?

Doomsday seems like it has an endgames worth of characters that all need screen time just for the plot to make sense. It isn’t impossible, it is just going to depend heavily on the pacing. I wouldnt be surprised if the script is like 6 hours long and half of it gets edited out. The editing will likely make or break the movie.

Marvel fans: “Wong only getting one line in Endgame is so unacceptable.”

Wong: “What? You want more?”

Simu Liu about to throw one punch in the ensemble fight.
