The character needs a Winter Soldier make over extreme. And that’s saying allot because Evans wasn’t even bad, Cap just felt bland.
Basically.
This is the benefit of the MCU format, the characters usually get more than a few shots, so maybe with different writes/directors they can make something work. The actress can act, so I’m cautiously optimistic that with better writing and direction, it could be better.
I would also argue that they really need to make sure the character has a real flaw. As an example, Thor was crazy powerful, but not to the point where his mere presence solved conflicts, especially since he’s not super smart.
Feels difficult to make overpowered characters simultaneously interesting, at least as far as superhero films go. Not impossible, but those seem to be the ones that can go the “mediocre” route the easiest.
Glad they got it to work with Thor though in the end, even if it took 5 films (counting Avengers and Age of Ultron). I enjoyed Ragnaraok quite a lot as well as his appearance in Infinity War.
Very hard, but Marvel has done it with plenty of other characters.
Also, regarding Thor, while I agree it took them a while to mold him into something compelling, he was never handled in such a way that he obsoleted the rest of the cast.
As i’ve said before, Marvel has more than earned the benefit of the doubt, and they have a history of course correcting successfully.

Master takes forever :c
Kenji outfit for Zeku is pretty good.
20 days until I go back online and bop TWINBLADES.
Any suggestions on what the SRK Forums twitch page should say on it? For some reason I’m drawing blanks on what to write in it.
Random aside, but this reminded me why I stopped watching Arrow
Once Flash started crossing over it felt like Arrow was just obsolete and there wasn’t really any reason Arrow should still be winning anything aside from luck, or why he was even still needed. Made him feel even more like discount Batman but with a weapon set I liked more
Still enjoyed Seasons 1-3 though
That’s how people who work in Japanese arcades look though.
Frost is cool though, I’ve been labbing her a lot recently.
Search your feelings. You know that you wanting to be a Falke main is true.
It is your destiny to ditch that trash Ed guy for the best SF girl.
Nah I’ll stick with Ed thanks 
He’s gonna get all the buffs in S5 after all
Besides, Menat is already the best SF girl~
To be fair, they had this in 2001:

Note: Spiderman 2 is the final phase 3 movie.
Fucking thank you!
Its not controversial at all. Dunno if you follow the marvel thread, but I was definitely shitting on that aspect.
I don’t mind that they did it, but you can’t do it twice or it cheapens everything.
Also, as said above they need to:

Summary
Lol i was just reading the Marvel thread and that whole time travel conversation is one of the main reasons i hate it as a fictional trope. The entire concept is super convoluted and even when a movie like Endgame gets it right it still requires a lot of explanation. Alternate timeline this, prime timeline that, what about the alternate reality, etc.
But really I just hate it because its a tired ass fucking trope. Again i think Endgame handled it in probably the most consistent and well done manner possible, but I’m really just tired of it being used. In every medium its used it always feels like a cheap out for the writers putting themselves in a corner.
Like when they get to farmer Thanos and discover he dusted the stones, I was excited because i was like “ok they have to get really creative now how are they gonna fix this”. Then 20 minutes later Antman (?) shows up and is like “lol time travel”. Immidiately brought down the whole movie for me.
