It’s no secret that since the 2019 Avengers: Endgame, the company was asked to scale up in an unprecedented way to feed its fledgling streaming service, Disney+, then a top priority for Disney,


this is where they messed up. they should have popped champagne and slap themselves on the back and say "we did it."

you could have ended up as heroes for pulling it off and making comic book movies cultural events and mainstream while earning everybody billions of dollars and making fans happy.

instead you kept pushing and became the villians.

Ehhhno that would have been stupid from a business standpoint alone but ignoring that, you would have had so many stories just left on the table.

The problem was that they didn’t really take a beat after Endgame even though Covid gave them the perfect opportunity to step back and properly plan everything. They went with the quantity approach which never works using characters that no one was really interested in, with weak stories - not to mention all the DEI nonsense that I have no desire to even go into.

There is still a demand for great superhero content out there and contrary to what some may say, there is no real superhero fatigue. They can’t just mail it in and coast on their name/reputation anymore.
