We're one month away from the release of Avengers: Endgame which, not counting if the companies involved decide to roll in other existing films in future, will be the twenty second movie bringing to a close a saga that will have unfolded across just over ten years. It's become a model for imitators with very few pulling off the same trick themselves and it's something never really succeeded at before. For this sixth Canon-Strike thread we're not going to review the films as such or have to unfold a complicated timeline, instead each day a new MCU movie will become the focus, in release order, as we look over what worked and what didn't as well as the details of each entries plot and their contribution to the universe, or lack of.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe
In some regards Marvel views the next film as an ending, certainly what we know of the films scheduled beyond it suggests a line is being drawn in the sand with long standing characters not receiving new entries should they survive the next encounter or not.
And this isn't complete.
Tomorrow we'll start at the beginning but in the meantime feel free to more broadly discuss whether you feel the MCU represents top tier cross franchise storytelling or whether you find the overall arc to be fairly redundant in the end
