“Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” Jay MaidmentĬonsider one MCU film series: “Thor” was a perfectly enjoyable and respectable origin story, an average representation of the MCU’s first several years and the ways in which it was able to introduce new characters. It’s hard to deploy multiple refreshing origin stories as part of a superhero machine that is now decades into its operation, the kind of franchise where a film with “Doctor Strange” in its title still crosses properties (and universes), and where the crossovers are expected to be ever larger and more impressive. Part of this is owed to the fact that the MCU is growing older. The films? They only seem to grow increasingly bloated and predictable with each new iteration. What continues to charm about the televised MCU offerings is that every title is different than the one before it, each significantly less encumbered by formula. The rest may not reach that initial bar, but each title takes a stab at revamping, retooling, and rethinking the way audiences consume superhero stories, often with emerging talent at the helm. ‘Billions’ Final Season Trailer: Damian Lewis Returns to Take Down Paul Giamatti
