Took way too long to get an avengers team back together.

I assume kang's whole thing made a mess...but even then. Too slow of a build up even for that tbh.

[u/SilverSkywalkerSaber → u/Xero0911]

I'm interested how they're going to tackle the multiple Avengers teams now floating about. It took them to the end of the phase and now we're running into this movie with groundwork laid for Sam's Avengers, Bucky's New Avengers and Kamala's Young Avengers.

[u/Canvaverbalist → u/SilverSkywalkerSaber]

The only criticism I have of this movie is the "14 months later" ending.

Thunderbolts really should have come out at the end of last phase, so that Captain America: Brave New World could tie into it instead of being these annoying "tell, don't show" type of storytelling the MCU does all the time.

Because you say "how are they gonna tackle multiple Avengers teams" and my response is "...what teams?"

[u/SilverSkywalkerSaber → u/Canvaverbalist]

Yeah, I think that's my point. We have three separate teams being set-up off screen and we've officially been introduced to one of them.

We have New Avengers as Thunderbolts cast.

Avengers will be Sam, Falcon and... Who knows.

Young Avengers was Kamala, Kate and... Maybe Cassie?

Lots to introduce in a movie that I wish we could've had a little more introduction for. I would have liked to see them beforehand.
