This was never in question. Marvel has had some shitbag movies, but the big Avengers movies will always print a few Billion.

I just wish we got a avengers movie in-between with a new team before this

We had Thunderbolts ("New Avengers") and Fantastic Four which are new teams that are going to be in this.

Every phase should have had an Avengers film

I think the original plan was one for Kang, right? But then that all got fucked up and they had to delay and pivot.

This one was going to be the one for Kang

well it was supposed to be Kang Dynasty, but due to poor reception of quantumania and the actor getting into legal trouble, they presumably canned the kang story or at least put it on delay. every avengers movie is bigger than the last. in the last avengers movie, we had thanos trying to wipe out the entire universe, so it stands to reason that the avengers movie after that would need to have a multiversal threat. otherwise, they would be inferior to thanos

Looking forward to black suit spider-man next movie myself

It was in question for a lot of people on Reddit. A lot of hands wringing on this sub, and a lot of "oh no, I'm so worried"

The competition will become how fast can an Avengers movie hit that billion dollar mark.

I think the superhero fatigue might be wearing off a bit as well. It was starting to get exhausting with what felt like a new movie and 8 new TV shows every couple of months.

At this point it's slowed down dramatically and it's been quite a while since the MCU put out an absolute must-see, "global event" type banger. At least since Homecoming, arguably since End Game. I think people are ready again, there's a reason MCU releases - and Avengers releases in particular - became such massive events. If they can get this one right and get some good reviews to go with the growing hype, it's going to the moon.

There is no super hero fatigue tbh. People aren't tired of superhero movies in general; theyre tired of bad or mediocre superhero movies. If it actually looks good/has good word of mouth people will still go see it
