Now, Marvel CEO Kevin Feige has finally announced what the future holds for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it all ends with Secret Wars. But what exactly is in store for Marvel's upcoming Phase 6?

    i think the biggest problem with phase 4 are the tv series and how they affect the movies, though Thor 4 had its own problems of tone as well. Wanda relying on Wandavision for character building, Moon Knight, Ms Marvel and She-Hulk's only introduction being those tv series and characters that should have a separate movie like America Chavez being shoehorned in as plot device in Multiverse of Madness...

      Well the thing is we see phase 4 as like phase 1 it’s all experimental phase marvel trying something new to see if it works or not(which is good, you keep to just one thing it eventually becomes stale) like that yeah there’s way more projects than 1 but when you look at it Ironman was the only HUGE , Thor and Captain America were (for the majority) Mixed and Hulk and Ironman 2 didn’t do all that well(tho these are overhated) they didn’t do well at the box office I mean Hulk would’ve probably done a wee bit better if it didn’t come out 2008 since you had juggernauts likes Ironman, The Dark Knight, Kung Fu Panda and Wall-E, Ironman 2(Even tho it’s one of my Guilty Pleasure films, which lets be honest everyone has one) it was a very rushed movie.

      I think wed feel differently about America if she’d opened the portals in Spider-Man No Way Home as intended. It would have made way more sense and given her a bigger role in the MCU (as well as keeping her ‘unique’ power unique - I mean, why didn’t Wanda just kidnap Ned?!?) Shame the pandemic screwed everything up. In my head there’s a version of NWH with America opening the portals. It’s way better!

    I like the idea of the secret wars movie being a reset. The one thing I wish they would do but I know they can't do it now. Is as we build up to a secret wars in our current mcu, it would have been cool if they had made another universe of films to build up so when universe collide fans can root for current mcu and the new one. It would have been cool if our current mcu continued through movies, and the other universe grows along the mcu. The other universe would take place on disney plus as shows so we can get to know new characters quicker in new ways not worry about continuity in the past. But I guess that why we have secret wars.

    This was definitely all leading up to Secret Wars, but it'll be hard to top what happened in the first 3 Phases especially "Infinity War" and "Endgame." If the MCU ended with just those films being the end of it all, I'd be satisfied and that's why it seems as if Phase 4 hasn't been as great as the previous 3 phases.

      Plus they were all movies, aka cinema. They were continuous and only in film form. I see the problem with Phase 4 and beyond is that they are trying to link various outlets into a cohesive thing, but I don't see it working out. Just one example is that you have to watch WandaVision to understand the plot of Dr. Strange Multiverse of Madness, and I know a lot of people who did not watch Wandavision because they were either not interested, or simply did not have Disney+

    I’m pretty sure Kang will remain the villain throughout the entire “Multiverse Saga” era of the MCU regardless of how “faithful” that is the comics.

      @@oliversoto7046 The track record of the MCU is not one of doggedly adhering to source material. Kang is already being positioned as the main villain and will stay that way, and even if Doom is around, Reed Richard will hardly be an MCU mainstay by the time Avengers 5/6 come out. It would just be weird to do this conflict with characters who will essentially be brand new at that point. We had two Guardians of the Galaxy movies prior to Infinity War. At the very least, I'm kind hoping and think it is probably more likely, that if Doom climbs to main villain status its after the Multiverse Saga so that we can actually get some full Fantastic Four movies out of him first.

    I don’t think I ever had any question that they’d do multiverse/Secret Wars stuff eventually. I think anyone who knows anything about the big comic events (which are literally all I know about comics) knew it was in the pipeline eventually. But for me the struggle is aside from “multiverses exist, and sometimes they break,” I don’t think there’s been a clear plot thread the way there was with the infinity stones. I mean, the avengers were hinted at almost instantly and by Captain America’s first movie we had the tesseract and explicit hints of it being connected to a bigger thing. Nowadays we get some lady in purple jumping out of nowhere in the post credits of Dr Strange 2 and being like “wanna go?” And without any explanation of who she is or why he’d trust her they’re off.
    So basically, all this to say, we all knew it was going to happen but the problem is almost nobody knows how it’s going to get there.

      Their track record has been a little spotty lately, it's true, but people forget that from the run from Iron Man to Endgame there were some clunkers in there too. Thor Dark World, Iron Man 2, Age of Ultron... even a bunch of movies that were decent but nothing remarkable like Guardians 2 and Iron Man 3. I think once Marvel starts running towards their big finish lines we start getting real bangers like Civil War, Ragnarok and Infinity War. This era's more a little bit dull but that might just be because we're in kind of the "filler" area where they have to slowly put the pieces together to the big picture.

Have Chapter 1 focus on world building, character development, heartbreaking scenes, some comedic scenes, and setting up for what's to come in Chapter 2. Have a 15 minute intermission after Chapter 1, and then go balls to the wall with Chapter 2. Full of action, surprises, epic scenes, a super intense and nail biting final battle, heartbreaking death scenes, and a satisfying conclusion.

    Honestly, the MCU needs a hard reset. It started out strong back in '08 but it slowly became clear that after Phase 2, they were running out of ideas due to various issues (IP rights being one). It's been an absolute shit show since Infinity War and I think recasting the majority of characters would be the best thing in the long run. After Secret Wars just start it all over from scratch and do it right this time, but if the past movies/shows are any indication of the direction the MCU is heading, it probably will just be worse after the reset.

    The thing that made Secret Wars (2015) so special was the YEARS of set up it had through multiple titles and runs from Jonathan Hickman. Fantastic Four, Avengers, New Avengers, etc. It was a story built through so many other stories in the background until it finally came to the forefront. I find the MCU trying to build up to that level of event in two phases rushed. It feels like they’re sprinting through the finish line for the quickest cash grab and not taking the time and care to set this story up as the biggest cinematic event of all time like infinity war and endgame were. On top of that I’m extremely worried it will just become a shallow, cameo filled, “avengers” movie. My issue with this being an Avengers movie is that Secret Wars is NOT a Avengers story and it’s not filled with cameos from other timelines. The actual main cast of the story wasn’t that big and the main characters were Reed and Doom. It’s a love letter to a decades long relationship between these two characters. Having that history between the two is what makes the story incredible. You need to have that build up but the MCU is introducing Doom and the four in the same phase as secret wars which makes me think this will be a rush job and following the recent MCU trend of quantity over quality. Secret wars shouldn’t happen until we’ve had time to properly set up all of those necessary components for a compelling story.

They were taken out of theaters 5 days after their release, the moment that awful no way home trash dropped. And I say this as someone who loves superhero genre.
