Five years ago, 2018's AvengersInfinityWar pulled off the greatest cliffhanger in the history of the MCU. Can Marvel do it again in Phase Five?
Anyone who has kept up with the Marvel Cinematic Universe will know that it has definitely seen better days.
Five years later, Avengers: Infinity War’s decidedly unhappy ending not only seems like an even more brilliant creative gamble on the part of Marvel Studios, but also reveals exactly what has been missing from so many of the MCU’s recent efforts. And that’s where the brilliance of Avengers: Infinity War lies. Aside from the film’s other accomplishments, which include moments with Captain America and Thor that rank among the MCU’s most rousing, Infinity War’s ending is a brilliant bit of audience manipulation. After spending years telling familiar, largely safe superhero stories, the MCU wielded the comfort that audiences had come to expect from it against them.
