It's been five years since Endgame. If we got dusted in April 2019, we'd be coming back now.
Crazy part is it feels like it's been 10.
5 years and not a single can't miss Marvel property in that period.
So much wasted potential and momentum.
I know COVID messed up some somethings, but it is extremely disappointing they weren't going to try to start connections between any of the new properties. I think people would have been willing to give some of these new properties a chance if they had teased some new villain and an over-arching mystery for the fans to try to solve.
Shang-Chi was a very solid movie or an introduction to a new property. Rewatched it the other day and there is some awesome things they did in that movie. They could have easily started a tie into Eternals or set up some new villain, especially since they had Wong, Bruce, and Danvers in one of the credit scenes discussing the Ten Rings.
Marvel botched phase 4 in a big way.
