Marvel’s Phase 5 Risks Repeating The MCU’s "Thanos Was Right" Problem

A Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 5 movie risks repeating the franchise’s major “Thanos was right” problem. Josh Brolin’s Thanos was the main villain of the MCU during Marvel’s Infinity Saga, which ran from the MCU’s Phases 1 to 3. Avengers: Infinity War‘s ending saw Thanos snap away half of all life in the universe, with the combined might of the Avengers, the Guardians of the Galaxy, and other MCU heroes not being enough to stop the Mad Titan from collecting all the Infinity Stones and using the Infinity Gauntlet to achieve his goal.
