@UncleIroh @mutageno I have no disagreement here. Just look at how they placed the Captain Marvel movie in between Infinity War and Endgame, as well as having the teaser and advertising so heavy for that movie. That made it seem like it was super important to see just before Endgame.
And... it was barely relevant at all. Captain Marvel barely did anything in Endgame. In fact, if she was written out of it, nothing of value would be lost.
I am aware there were rewrites of Endgame.

It's not always obvious at the time which are the load-bearing walls and which are the stud-partitions that can be confidently knocked down when looking at a movie franchise.
Of course, that only matters if you give a shit. MCU funders don't even if fans do.
Either way, Disney gets their Vanguard & Blackrock money.
