Avengers: Doomsdayis going to be make or break for theMarvel Cinematic Universe.

It simply wasnt worth the effort, so I havent looked back since.

That was until the cast reveal of Avengers: Doomsday earlier this week.

Avengers Doomsday Needs To Feel Like A Cultural Event

Endgame felt like the end of something monumental.

But we cared about these heroes, so we stayed invested.

It feels like we remember it more than people in the MCU do, and its bizarre.

But it didnt provide us with a big villain or television shows and movies worth watching.

Too many multiverses, too many movies, and not nearly enough reasons to give a crap.

To my nostalgic horror, it just might work.

Its not a hard-fought win, but its one nonetheless.

Were talking older and returning X-Men alongside Thor, Loki, and the all-new Captain America.
