Was Endgame your EndPoint? It was mostly for me (I stopped sooner after Spiderman Afterschool Special and came back for these 2 Avenger films, but willing to ONLY see Doctor Strange 2 at this point).
So, what's YOUR plan user?

I'm going to see everything except for Captain Marvel unless it's a free inflight movie.
I'm going to fart and shit at the same time it'll feel really good but make a big mess.
I stopped reading Marvel comics after Secret Wars in like 2015. May as well stop watching the movies now too
I'll watch Guardians as long as based Gunn keeps making it, but that's about it.
I'm interested in watching GotG3 and see what they will do with Dr. Doom, Galactus and the X-Men. Not really interested in Black Panther 2, Captain Marvel 2, Spiderman 2 etc..
Done with Marvel after endgame. I'll watch Captain Marvel 2 but that's it.
Kinda sorta.
They need to do better in convincing me that Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Spiderman and GOTG are going to be the big series going forward. Iron Man, Thor, Captain America were the building blocks for not only the Avengers but Marvel movies in general.
I don't see how they can replicate anything like Endgame again. I am excited to have kids and let them watch those first 22 movies however.
I'm fucking tired of fucking capeshit shit. I'm done. I'm might see Spiderman 2, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Loki, WandaVision, Falcon and Wintersoldier, Black Panther 2 , Doctor Strange 2, Captain Marvel 2, Fantastic Four, Shang-Chi, Guardians of the Galaxy 3, The Eternals, Avengers 5, X-Men...but after that i'm done with all that
;)
Blade II.
Gosh, you're soooooo edgy! Fuck, did you bring that edge from reddit?
I'm willing to stick with Dr Strange because he was based and well written with an actual character arc, not quipbot 10.0. Everything else can suck it.
GOTG= lets talk about the nipple chafing and the size of Drax's poops! Filmmaking!
Time travel is a dumb way to reset things and introduces a million plot holes and is never satisfying. So having all these years build up to that just annoys me.
I like holland as spider man and guardians so probably only watch that.
This one time I threw up shit pissed cummed and farted/burped at the same time.
I had ibs and food poising at the time it felt amazing
>I don't see how they can replicate anything like Endgame again
Why would they want to? It wasn't anything special
>I am excited to have kids and let them watch those first 22 movies however.
Marvel fucking nailed the formula, for sure. Normies don't know shit when it comes to serial storytelling, since most Americans barely have the brain power to recognize that Big Bang Theory is just retelling the same damn jokes every episode. American TV executives specifically stopped television shows from being allowed to do anything overarching or serialized to keep viewers from feeling "left behind", and nobody fucking reads books anymore, so the cognitive skills of the majority population have just been going to shit for decades. Then along came a series of low-brow capeshit with easily-digestible normie humor and big 'splosions that unsubtly spoonfed the audience everything to keep the feeling of continuity ever-present with absolute minimal effort, and suddenly entire theaters of popcorn munching retards feel like Arthur Conan Doyle for being able to put a square peg in a square hole with only 3-4 movies' worth of handholding to get them there.
Watching the MCU made people feel like they were part of a club, even if that club was just a rental tarp where they served peanut butter sandwiches and bottled water. It appealed to that tribalistic part of the human brain that yearns to be a part of something greater. Even if it isn't all that great, it's easier to just shut off your critical thinking skills and convince yourself it is, because this mass off eye-wateringly bland spandex soap operas aren't just a franchise, they're YOUR franchise, and it always feels great when the home team socks a few dingers, even if they fall short of the bleachers, you'll still cheer as though they went right out of the park. Whatever it takes to get that dopamine flowing faster.
I'll probably see Black Widow, Dr Strange 2, and maybe Guardians 3. other than that I'm done
>Why would they want to? It wasn't anything special
While a lot of was time travel filler, the last hour and namely the final battle was the best thing Marvel has done, maybe best thing to ever take place in a comic book movie.
Their newer movies, like Black Panther and Captain Marvel got people to come to the theatres because oh "Its a black hero, or "its another Wonder Woman". But to the fans that stuck through from Iron Man to Endgame, they surely enjoyed the ride. I never thought this is where they would end up after those first few movies.
And coming from okay but not great movies like the original XMen series or the first Spiderman movies, we've come along way in storytelling etc.
Yeah I’m DONE with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I’ll watch Captain Marvel 2, Black Panther 2, and the Captain Marvel x Black Panther teamup trilogy but that’s IT!
Based
I saw that movie on an airplane and people still walked out.
Probably gonna watch them. Though not in the theaters
I find it interesting that I was expecting a grand finale. Feel kind of dumb.
They didn't stand up and clap, including the pilot?
>coming from okay but not great movies like the original XMen series or the first Spiderman movies, we've come along way in storytelling etc
This is exactly what I'm talking about. Watching so much capeshit literally destroys your brain, and you begin to only think of things in terms of capeshit. Fucking spandex movies have become your only frame of reference, so every analysis or opinion only makes sense when it's followed by a (* for capeshit) disclaimer. There was never anything wrong with storytelling in capeshit, it's just that the MCU redefined how it needed to work for your average moviegoing mouthbreather to be able to connect more than one trail of dots at a time. Why should a capeshit movie require any kind of special conditions or treatment in order to be successful? Why the double standard?
>the final battle was the best thing Marvel has done, maybe best thing to ever take place in a comic book movie
I honestly can't tell if this is bait or not. The final battle was the most worthless smear of CGI I've ever seen, especially because the stakes at that point were so fucking out the window. It was literally just fanservice and shiny lights, but I guess that's what people show up for. I suppose this answers my first question, though; when people think that empty hype and action figures crashing together are a beacon of quality, it's no wonder that something like "storytelling" ends up being a bit intangible and unquantifiable to them.
