Since 2008’sIron Man , Marvel Studioshas reach an unprecedented feat : it free more than fifteen interlink blockbuster superhero films that brought to life what is now known as theMarvel Cinematic Universe ( MCU ) .
The MCU is credited for having made heroes such as Iron Man andThorcool again , for turn morally unnamed eccentric like theGuardians of the GalaxyandAnt - Maninto pop culture staple , for create an entire trend of interconnected cinematic universes , for gettingSpider - Manright after so many year of trying , and most of all , for becoming an incredibly lucrative enfranchisement forDisney , which became Marvel ’s parent company in 2009 .
However , if we ’re being reliable , it would ’ve been impossible for the Marvel Cinematic Universe to geteverythingright , and that was surely not the case . sure hero outdo others , certain moving picture felt less important , certain characters had to be changed , and there were definitely various plot of land trap that exposed the crack inside the so - call synergism expected from all the picture made by Marvel Studios . But permit ’s be honest : the MCU is the endowment that observe on gift , and we ’re okay ignore most of these mistake .
These are the15 Things Wrong With The Marvel Movies That We All Choose To Ignore .
THE BROKEN MCU TIMELINE
The most impressive matter about the Marvel Cinematic Universe is its well-nigh impeccable persistence . Even as the enfranchisement nears 20 films , it has been in a ordered frame - up , movie after motion-picture show , effect after event . But with so many producer , writers , and film director involved , the MCU was obviously tie to make mistakes , and one of the most infamous mishap is the now famous“broken timeline”of the franchise .
It all start out withDoctor Strange , which presumablytook place within seven yr , but that understandably disregarded most of the outcome that had anything to do with the Avengers . ThenGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2featuredanother time - raw plot of land hole , andSpider - Man : Homecomingconfused thingseven further .
fit in to Kevin Feige , Marvel Studios is planning to releasean official MCU timeline in the near futurein order to straighten the timeframes . For now , however , it all just expect like a collection of mistakes that Marvel rooter choose to ignore .
THE AVENGERS ONLY ASSEMBLE SOMETIMES
Why put together a squad of superheroes with massive infrastructure and herculean ability if they only get to piece sometimes … for some problem … to battle sure baddie ?
After 2012’sThe Avengers , fans had to set aside their belief in guild to have that the Avengers would only be fancy together in the films about the squad , but that the MCU heroes would mostly be on their own for the sake of their standalone feature .
While this is all fable and set aside your opinion is part of the journey , it ’s kind of mystifying to think that , after all of his investiture on the Avengers initiative , Tony Stark had to number on just Pepper to salve his living inIron Man 3 . Then , inCaptain America : The Winter Soldier , Cap was able to count onBlack Widow , Falcon , andNick Fury , but where was everybody else when he needed aid ?
MOST MCU VILLAINS ARE BORING
apart from Loki , it ’s safe to say that all villains in the MCU pic range between “ bad ” and “ just okay . ”
Marvel Studios has spend so much meter making antediluvian heroes ( such as Ant - Man ) relevant again and turning all nameless characters ( like the Guardians of the Galaxy ) into household name , that it seems like the studio has n’t spent as much prison term spring up its villains .
In the most recent films , it is unmortgaged that the Marvel Cinematic Universe has become aware of this problem and is trying to set it , but even when we get a compelling villain such asEgoinGuardians of the Galaxy Vol . 2 , he has to die , and the dealership stay without incompatible figures to brood over its popular superheroes .
Here ’s to skip that Thanos will be compelling and scary enough to driveAvengers : Infinity War , and that standalone features such asBlack PantherandCaptain Marvelwill introduce to the MCU interesting villains that can take part in the franchise ’s ongoing persistence .
THE INCREDIBLE HULK MOVIE
Because the Marvel Cinematic Universe has put out such as a string of highly successful blockbusters , it ’s easy to forget about 2008’sThe Incredible Hulk , which was released between the first and secondIron Man , and is altogether ignored by the MCU continuity .
The clearest grounds that Marvel - and many fans - willingly ignoreThe Incredible Hulkis that not a exclusive person wince when Dr. Bruce Banner was re-introduce to the franchise inThe Avengersbeing portrayed by Mark Ruffalo – who was not the actor in the 2008 standalone Hulk film .
Though the motion-picture show is technically part of the official canyon , it bears no grandness to the overall franchise and is conveniently skip whenever the history of the MCU is brought up . Due to complicated Intellectual Property laws , while Marvel has the right hand to use the Hulk in its films , the studio isnot authorise to produce a Modern standalone Hulk feature article by itself .
VISION’S WEAKNESS
He has well-nigh limitless intelligence , strength , and speed . He is able to fly , shapeshift , take the air through wall , regenerate , and wangle mass . He has a body craft by Ultron and power by an Infinity Stone . So why is it that Vision is never seen at his full capacitance in actions scene in the Marvel Cinematic Universe ?
There was no clearer indication of Vision ’s strength in the MCU than when he easily picked up Thor ’s hammer ( the Mjolnir ) duringAvengers : Age of Ultron . Vision is clearly an incredibly powerful being who could easily put a check to fights and entire warfare . The style he is treated in Marvel moving-picture show is curious and confusing , like he is not at least three times unassailable and saucy than every other sub .
TONY STARK’S FORTUNE IS LIMITLESS?
Everybody knows that Tony Stark is a billionaire who is untroubled of risks , willing to clothe in new technology , and prostrate to using his fortune for the well - being of the man . However , this scenario still beg the question : just how deep are Tony Stark ’s pockets , after all ?
Both in the risible books and in the MCU movies , it seems , at times , like Tony Stark has a limitless fortune has is not bound to any reality . A single Iron Man causa would be a circle of money , and by the timeIron Man 3was unblock , it was give away that there were a bunch of them . Mashableestimated that this investiture could ’ve be Tony Stark upward of $ 10 billion .
Bill Gates – deserving $ 86 billion – is the richest man in the veridical world . If he invested $ 10 billion in anything like an Iron Man lawsuit ( that generates no winnings ) , that would mean that 11.6 % of his fortune would be gone . So just how plentiful would Tony Stark have to be that his investment in Iron Man and the Avengers initiative made no serious dent in his fortune ?
THE WORLD NEVER FREAKED OUT ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF THOR, AN ACTUAL GOD
The Marvel Cinematic Universe attempt to be realistic and discover logical explanations to many of its more " magical " chemical element . That ’s because while many thing make sentience on the page of comic books , they seem unearthly once they are adapted to film . But the enfranchisement chose to last out silent in respect to one of the thing that sure as shooting need to be addressed : how the world reacted to the existence of actual Norwegian gods .
The alien intrusion that takes place inThe Avengersis mentioned time and prison term again by MCU character , but little is said about the arrival of Thor and Loki to the real world , which essentially proved that Supreme Being exist , and that Norse mythology was actually correct .
It would ’ve been interesting to see how that impacted other religions of the humankind , if religious digit freaked out , and whether peoplestarted to pray to Thor and Odininstead of to the gods they believed in before . Also , how do atheists exist in a world that has TV footage of Thor ?
We need answers , Marvel Studios !
PETER PARKER WAS EASILY FOUND, BUT NOT THE DEFENDERS
Much of theNetflix/ Marvel TV series focus on show the street - level MCU characters that do not interact and have no impact in the overall Avengers initiative . Daredevil , Jessica Jones , Luke Cage , Iron Fist , andThe Defendersonly make vague references to the zep in the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies , making the point that there is such a thing as anonymous bomber who live outside of the grasp of Tony Stark , even they are based in New York City .
But while that point is made quite convincingly in the Netflix show , the street - level storyline became a slight mystifying onceCaptain America : Civil WarandSpider - Man : Homecomingtook the unadulterated diametric path by prove how Tony Stark was more than able to find , distinguish , and recruit a teenager from Queens to join the Avengers .
The MCU has yet to come up to how come Daredevil , Jessica Jones , Luke Cage , and Iron Fist have never been approached by Tony Stark or Nick Fury ( or any Avenger , for that matter ) at any minute .
CAPTAIN AMERICA KISSING PEGGY CARTER’S NIECE - RIGHT AFTER PEGGY’S FUNERAL
Captain America : The First Avengertakes place between 1942 and 1943 , when Steve Rogers was already a young human being . As seen at the end of that flick , Steve is frozen and then awaken nearly 70 years later to get together the Avengers in the present sidereal day . This mean that Steve Rogers has been in this world for at least 90 years by the time that he becomes infatuated with Sharon Carter , who ’s definitely under 30 age old .
If this spectacular historic period difference was n’t already enough reason to think that this relationship is strange , there is also the added contestation that Sharon Carter is the niece ofPeggy Carter – the love of Steve Roger ’s life .
So yeah , MCU buff have to volitionally ignore that a 90 - year - old superhero has been flirting with his ex - girl ’s niece - and even kissed her just after Peggy ’s funeral .
HEROES ARE (MOSTLY) UNKILLABLE
With the exception of Quicksilver ’s decease inAvengers : Age of Ultron , superheroes seldom die in the Marvel Cinematic Universe . And rent ’s face it : it ’s not like the MCU version ofQuicksilverwas in the franchise for long or was that interesting of a character , anyway .
It is by all odds gainsay to raise the stakes in an action , sci - fi , or fantasy pic when there is no way that you could drink down off one of your principal characters . In the comic books , writer are not afraid to eliminate major bomber , leaving it to other version to institute them back to life . In the MCU , however , it ’s all about persistence – mean that once someone dies , that theatrical role has to either stay dead or have a great account as to how they elude death .
With such a bloated card of characters , a major superhero has get to pass away in the MCU at some point in the penny-pinching next - likelyInfinity War .
