I feel we need a 5 year break from the 10+ years of MCU.

Spiderman felt mediocre, box office says it is time to slow down on MCU, fatigue has arrived.

put a strategic Skrull story next, Begin with Captain Marvel 2 in 3 years....

then begin X-men introduction 2 years after that, then begin the new phase year 5.

It's going into its second weekend with over 600 million dollars worldwide, this MCU train isn't slowing any time soon.

All I see is the OUTCOME of 9 years building the MCU.

Spiderman Far From Home or the next movies WILL NEVER sell like END GAME.

Disney/Marvel probably can't comprehend why Spiderman is doing less than Captain Marvel

Oh, you're posting a clickbait video that doesn't even bring actual facts and sales into it.

MCU isn't going anywhere and critical reception of the new Spider-Man says it's NOT mediocre.

People keep talking about superhero fatigue when these films continue to wreck the box office numbers

Like, shut the fuck up already there is no fatigue and it's not showing any signs of slowing down

Three of the top 5 movies this year are MCU.

And Far From Home is outperforming Homecoming...and Captain Marvel Outperformed every solo MCU film except Black Panther and iron man 3...and Endgame outperformed infinity war...

The only fatigue here is your own. You clearly can't think straight.

Captain Marvel did more than every MCU movie aside avengers films, iron man 3 and black panther.

I don't think they expect any solo film to outperform Cap Marvel.

Except MAYBE black panther 2 or Cap Marvel 2.

Isn't 600 mil slowing down? Its still stupid no reason to stop money.

How Disney+ is utilized with the mcu is probably going to really be what determines mcu length. It's a fine balance between enhancing the story for fans, being worthless like the current shows, and being over kill

In fairness, Star Wars was supposed to be guaranteed profits too, then Solo landed. It will stop one day, and may well be a sudden drop and not a gradual decrease.

And I say it is a possibility to happen sooner rather than later. Spidey's doing alright, but Marvel's right to use it is tied with Sony and could go at any time for little other reason than a dick measuring contest. We've lost 2 of the popular Avengers, and the movie will imitate many years of low selling comics if the team is made up of too many second stringers. Some of the new franchises, support them or don't, let's not pretend that cultural politics contributed to some of those high sales and won't repeat when BP and CM are just another sequel.

The big hit however is the loss of Thanos and the infinity stones project. The build up to that drove a lot of sales, and without it or competent writers going forward, we could sink back to Iron Man 2 / Thor the Dark World levels of quality. The MCU's built up a lot on that plan and I'm not sure how long it will survive if it falls back purely into good guys in funny suits fighting bad guys in funny suits again.

MCU was built out of second-stringers.

Star wars is, no one wanted a han prequel it was blasted before it was released and nothing altered that perception. Solo was a movie that had more ways to fail than succeed. If you're going to make up a story for an already beloved character that requires a recast you need near perfection.

Rogue 1 still made a billion dollars. There is a marker for star wars

Not sure why. It isn't one of the better MCU movies.

Yeah it pulled 600m in a week, Homecoming made 800 in its entire run.

Very likely FFH will break the 1B mark at this pace.

Anyway, LOL nope, OP. Not slowing down any time soon.

Of course Spider-Man isn't going to do as well as Endgame. Infinity War and Endgame had every single A- and B-list actor in the Marvel movie franchise, and Endgame was specifically billed as the end of a saga. It's the second best-grossing movie of all time, not adjusting for inflation.

Spider-Man is business as usual - it's a return to the Marvel formula they'll be going back to, and it's the end of this current phase of Marvel movies that they're using to set the tone for the next series of movies. So no, it doesn't have the appeal that Endgame has. And I think Disney knows that.
