the biggest issue is that there is no avangers movie set up in this phase and it’s looking like there may not be one next phase. the movies that make the billions are the ones that bring a lot of characters together.

non of these movies did totally surprising numbers

Spider-man was a huge hit
DS2 for a Doctor Strange Movie was an enormous success
Thor 3 was the 3rd highest grossing thor movie.
GOTG3 did slightly worst than GOTG2 but still made over 800 million
Antman didn’t go well but it was never a franchise that was making a billion dollars.
BP2 did well for a movie whose star died. 859 million is a good take.

but they’re spending waaay to much time stalling. they needed to have a tent pole ensemble movie and they haven’t had anything close to that since Spider-Man and I dont see one till maybe FF.

Because they can't figure out how to tentpole their new characters. Strange and Ant-Man were never going to get it done. Spider-Man had a chance, but if Holland is slowing his acting down that's out.

I think they want to replace Evans/RDJ/Hemsworth with something more diverse - but they can't figure it out. (And yes, ScarJo was solid and Sam Jackson helped, but it wasn't enough). And they won't take that risk yet and are trying to spend time building up a "more diverse" Avengers to launch, hence the stalling.
