    It was hit-or-miss before End Game. The first Iron Man / Thor / Hulk / Cap A arc was genuinely good action fantasy. Daredevil and Guardians were good. I’ve loved all the Dr. Strange movies.

    But the ratio of quality to crap definitely surged after End Game. They got Disney-fied, and its clear there was just a formula everyone had to follow. Movies that strayed farthest (and leaned hard into comedy) did much better than the action/thriller films that were ruined by predictability.

    Also didn’t help that they never married the Netflix street level shows with the High Sci-fi. Nevermind all the wasted acting talent, it would have been fun to see Iron Man and Luke Cage or Black Widow and Jessica Jones share a script together.
