Thank You For Watching!! Leave Me Your Thoughts & Opinions On Marvel's Phase 4 !?

Out of all the films and shows in phase 4, Shang-Chi and Spider-Man NWH were definitely the best ones I've seen. Haven't seen Wakanda Forever, but hope to watch it soon.

Phase 4 left like a roller coaster. Some high highs and low lows but overall was a really enjoyable experience.

I think phase 5 needs to make us care yo give us the audience that feel of eagerness and excitement with each mcu project coming out cause l am going to be honest I didn’t watch literally all the mcu projects except for Shang-chi, NWH, and wakanda forever. I feel like they need prioritize for quality storytelling and movie quality than just distributing projects just for the fun of it. That should be there goal.

Love how “amazing” and “spectacular” were words used to describe No Way Home 😌

A: wakanda forever, NWH, Shang Chi B: Eternals, Werewolf, Moon Knight, Loki, Wandavision, TFATWS, Ms Marvel, dr strange, she hulk C: thor 4, black widow, hawkeye, what if

I 100% agree with you on your #1 favorite show. Loki was top tier and I’m hella excited to see more of Owen Wilson.

Hawkeye was my personal favorite TV series in the MCU. I will say though that the intrigue from WandaVision was ELITE!

I think they should wait longer for the next avenger's movie because there are a lot of storylines they should do before secret wars that they have set up in phase 4. I also feel like I need more time with characters to really care about them

Phase 4 is not technically over they're still the guardians of the Galaxy holiday special

I do understand that Eternals wasn’t for everyone, but I really liked it. The only thing I really didn’t like was Black widow. It just felt like it came out a little too late. Even then I didn’t completely loath it.

Time to sit back, relax, and watch another 3C video 😎

I think that phase 4 was mostly for the characters, for example wandavision was for Wanda, Loki was for Loki, and Thor love and Thunder was for Thor trying to find him self again. I believe not many people liked it because Kevin made movies and series for so characters that other people may not like. I hope that phase 5 will focus on the world that is in the MCU. (I still liked phase 4 though)😁

Spider-Man No Way Home is the best example of how to do nostalgia correct, while the story does have many plot holes, it manages to make an amazing narrative with some dark but enjoyable moments, it also had the best connections and build up compare to other projects and fixed the problems people had with the MCU

Haven’t (and won’t for some time) finished Phase 4, but easily the best things imo were Shang Chi and No Way Home. The worst was easily Eternals, Love and Thunder, Falcon and The Winter Soldier, and if *I’m* being honest most if not all of the TV shows lol. I know most of you are gonna disagree lol

While the writing was weak and the comedy was over the top, I finally know what this phase was about.... pain, trauma, and grief. Look back at all of these movies and shows, they all have in common with characters from the original phases dealing with the gigantic event of Endgame, and they were all impacted in many different ways. I don't think that the MCU is dying, it's just not. But if Marvel can learn from their mistakes, maybe we can hope that Phases 5 and 6 can be major improvements from Phase 4. Because I WANT Marvel to be great like phases 1 - 3, I WANT Marvel to focus on quality over quantity.

I think that the big issue with this phase is marvels selection of what should be a movie and what should be a show. The only movie in this phase that's completely original is eternals and Shang chi I think if they made some of the shows into a movie and some movies into shows ( mainly eternals) it would be much better because some of the shows just feel like a movie with filler added to meet the 6 episodes (mainly falcon and winter soldier). Also they should make the shows 8 episodes for normal ones like Hawkeye and falcon and winter soldiers and the longer one like she hulk around 13 so they are more like shows and less like long movies. I would like to not the episode count is not only a marvel issue though

I think phase 4 is exactly what they said it would be and it needed to be. You can't keep doing the high stakes universe wide thing. Without it seeming artificial and risking burn out. So Phase 4 by Kevin Feige's own words was a lower stakes, more experimental phase. Trying out things like, art house epics like Eternals, a much darker and more horror feeling Doctor Strange, TV shows that are actually important to the overall universe. The main focus of phase 4 was to catch up with the still active characters and introducing characters and concepts that Marvel wants to make important going forward. Was Phase 4 perfect? No, while I personally have enjoyed all the projects between Wandavision and She-Hulk, still need to see BPWF but am excited. But nothing let me down and it did serve to make me excited for what's coming. It also doesn't help that there is a ridiculous culture war happening and thing Marvel tends to do, just in the history of the company, tends to upset certain culturally backwards, disingenuous grifters. But say what you will about Marvel, nothing in Phase 4 is a bad as the Zack Snyder directed DC films.

I know this is an unpopular opinion but I really liked phase 4 it felt like a comic phase where they weren’t trying to appeal to the main stream but rather to the comic book fans and I could really appreciate that

Admittedly, yes it was divisive but I feel like that showed us the true cracks in the MCU formula. They had to do this to get back on track hopefully lol.

Great list. Completely agree with 99% of it. I think the top 3 of this phase are pretty much objectively going to be NWH, Shang Chi, and BP2, and they can go in any order you want.

Spider-Man No Way Home STILL has me feeling a way I can't explain since I seen it Day 1. Yes I love it was a somewhat celebration of 20 years of films, but it (like you said) had him face actual consequences and great loss. He suffers like how Spider-Man suffers in the comics with wanting to do things a certain way but feels guilty for not doing what's right and then when he does do the right thing it ends up going against him. Also the fact that this trilogy is an ORIGIN story is simply....Amazing

I was just talking to people about this. The first 3 phases raised the bar so high you can’t even keep up with that. So a drop was expected. Honestly everything just felt like it’s own thing

I enjoyed Phase Four. Yes, it had its issues but it’s something new never done before and Phase Five will learn from it and improve upon and I can’t be more hyped!

The main problem is a lot of Disney plus shows either need to be longer like Hawkeye and moon night should have been and or a special presentation like ms marvel and she hulk

I feel like the main reason that phase 4 has dropped in quality and is the worst phase so far is because of the lack of competition. From the beginning they had stiff competition from DC with the Dark Knight trilogy in phase 1 and then the DCEU for phases 2 and 3, where Marvel and DC were competing to constantly get better and be the top superhero movie company, but after the whole josstice league catastrophy, DC really went on a downward spiral to the point where they aren't really a serious competitor to Marvel, so they feel less motivated to constantly improve and feel like they can kinda do whatever they want and people will keep watching their stuff regardless.

I agree with you Chris, after I left the theaters watching Shang Chi made me want to see more of him and eventually meet the Avengers

Enjoyed the analysis. Great job!

3c you make my day cause today I was in a negative mood but then when you made a new video I watched it and it made me in a positive mood and also I was wondering if you could review the od1's out new show called odd balls on Netflix. Thanks for the amazing work dude keep it up! 😃

i’m just glad they are trying some new stuff

Chris you should a do ranking video where you rank all the upcoming project from your most exited to least exited! Love the vids keep it up came from tiktok ❤

Great video brother my ranking of all phase 4 movies has gotta be: 1.Spiderman No way home 2.black panther wakanda forever 3.Shang Chi 4.doctor strange MoM 5.Black Widow 6.Thor love and Thunder 7.Eternals

Never apologize for giving your opinion. Your list is PERFECT!

I think it's the worst phase but had a few great films. Spiderman nwh Wakada forever And Shang chi Where good but some where really bad like eternals and blackwidow

Thank you for this breakdown Cris. I'm a big fan of the MCU and I was afraid I missed some of the content... There's just so much. But now I know I didn't miss a thing. Love the channel keep up the awesome work man.

I really enjoyed almost all of the content that the MCU gave us for The Multiverse Saga / Phase 4. I can't wait to see what comes in Phase 5 and where this Saga goes next.

Hey Chris, phase 4 actually ends next week with the guardians holiday special. It's like the epilogue of phase 4, but still included as a part of it

I’m with you Chris, seeing Spider-Man: No Way Home in the theater for the first time is an experience I will also never forget. It was amazing.

My man thanks for the video Chris !

8:45 I like that you mention that they felt like a clear set up. I have read hundreds of comments across the internet saying that they felt a lack of a coherent narrative, and that each project didn't connect enough to the other projects.

I agree with everything you said because I feel the same way

Awesome video as always Cris. Looking forward to phase 5 that will begin with Ant-Man. Now that Kang the Conqueror is the next big villain I feel we're going for a wild ride and I hope the built up and hype to Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars will be the same as we had in No way Home, Infinity war and Endgame.

I had to skip the part about Wakanda Forever because I haven’t watched it yet😂

Wow, I didn’t know how much my personal rankings of the Tv shows differ from yours lol I respect your opinion tho and love your stuff Chris ❤️

I feel like everyone forgets that before this phase started Kevin said it was gonna be a more low stakes and experimental phase and that's exactly what phase 4 is and to be honest it might be my favorite phase so far. I've enjoyed every show/movie that's come out and the highs of the phase were so fucking high. Like if it wasn't for phase 4 we wouldn't have seen all 3 spidermen on screen together and I'm forever grateful for that

3C is one of those people where if you express your opinion he won't judge you.

I’m here early. Really like what you’ve been doing with your content!!

Chris: phase 4 is over GOTG holiday special: are you sure about that?

Honestly I love Falcon and the Winter Soldier

Thank you for keeping up the positivity. You realize that phase 4 isn’t the greatest, but you stay positive and look toward the future.

Lovely breakdown. Lets all hope Phase 5 will be much better that Phase 4. By the way, Hi, will you gives be doing a review of The Peripheral tv show (from creators of Westworld) any time soon?

The movie which has the highest potential with og material was Thor 4. Marvel has to only adapt to the og comic storyline to Live action. The most worst part of the movie was they replaced Gorr the God butcher with Gorr the children kidnapper and old king and young Thor with Jane and Valkyrie. Also turning Thor into a clown. I was expecting some planet shattering fights and what we get, Children vs Gorrs army😶.

NWH was amazing, I loved it and can’t wait to experience something like that again! I hope phase 5 movies/ shows will in a way relate the “multiverse” a lot more.

I feel like phase 4 was about grief and how to deal with the loss and pain.

Everything before Phase 4 Marvel was at their Prime. Now it's just overwhelming.

My favorite MCU Phase 4 projects: 1. Black Panther Wakanda Forever 2. Spider-Man No Way Home 3. Werewolf By Night 4. Ms Marvel 5. Doctor Strange Multiverse Of Madness

As much as I do enjoy a lot of the projects in phase 4, Spider-Man No Way Home really shows how disorganized it could be. That movie feels so disconnected but also connected in the same way, you could watch it or skip it and it wouldn't matter so much. Most of the other projects just have such a different experience feeling like they're forced in the middle of this huge universe.

I honestly say they should do two movies a year and a show maybe a special that way the people working on the visual effects have a little more time and it won’t feel like homework no more

I love your vids Chris

The only movies I’d actually like in MCU phase 4 are No way home, black panther wakanda forever & Shang chi but I liked the moon knight series I liked that character. Agreed all the projects should be stand alone. The Disney plus series felt like a Disney channel original movie with super heroes. Werewolf by night I enjoyed!!

I felt like phase 4 was the first phase that they started to do more individual movies without having to lean to much on others films of course I’m not talking about NWH or MOM. I think that’s a big reason why I felt like everything was kinda disconnected expect for a few things. I think they’ll start slowly connecting them as we progress in this saga.

I've always seen phase 4 as the new phase 1, introducing her characters and then assembling them, I like phase 4 even though I thought most of it was alright and I can't wait to see the new characters come together in the next Avengers movies

I completely on board with your list =)

Really good video, I like how he is very thoughtful and just doesn’t complete emotional bury movie or show.

It's my favorite phase of mcu and no one can ever change that because there's just something about it that just fits what I like.

This phase was like each movie / show is a hit or miss lol

RedGuardian & Black Knight Totally DESERVE Thunderbolt & Avenger Status! I'd LOVE💗To See 1990's Avengers On Screen TOGETHER, As Opposed To Being Spit-Up Into Factions?

the reason i dont feel like everyone else about nwh is because i didn’t have that shock value of seeing tobey and andrew in the movie(even tho we all basically already knew) because i got spoiled with scenes in yt and tiktok

Phase 4 was definitely all over the place, I enjoyed some of the content!

I felt like that this was a mixed bad. There were some high highs but some very low lows. The shows mainly felt like filler to me.

Bro, good on you. I don't always agree with you, but I respect the way you express yourself. This is the most levelheaded analysis of P4 I've seen in a Tsunami of hot takes and rants.

Bro, this video was very in depth. Everything you said needed to be said. Marvel is at its most vulnerable. This next phase will either make or break the MCU moving forward. Anyways, great video. Thank you 🙏

Loved Shang Chi and No Way Home. The rest of Phase 4 can be wiped from my memory

Phase 4 wasn’t what I expected by my accounts it’s not bad just not that great I’m hoping that Phase 5 & 6 is better cause I love the MCU been watching it since i was a kid so here’s hoping that the Multiverse Saga gets better

Awesome video 3c films

Switching to hour long specials is the best answer to reducing fatigue and enouraging participation. Wanna stay up to date all the time? Disney +. Don't have it? Buy the home release (should include every single special for that phase) The only question is, is it too little too late for the characters introduced in slog-a-thons already? Comics have the benefit of small snippits of useful info in the corners for people who aren't familiar with why such and such character has suddenly shown up sans one arm. My idea is, condence these shows into highlight reels and release them with the specials on home video. Also every movie should start with a recap like in tv shows. It's awkward, but we're at that point where it is necessary.

I think this phase had some really good projects in a vacuum. If you look at Shang-Chi and No Way Home as their own thing. They're Fantastic. But when you look at this phase as a collective. It feels very disjointed and all over the place in terms of storytelling and quality. I'd say that's where I think this phase falls flat is it feels like it doesn't have a point to it.

I like spider man no way home, Hawkeye, Wandavision, Moon knight all these I love it get me great memories 😊I love them👍

Great video!!! I personally Love this phase but there is a few projects that were a little worse than others. Here is my ranking: #1: Spider-Man No Way Home #2: Black Panther Wakanda Forever #3: WandaVision #4: Loki #5: Shang-Chi #6: Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness #7: Ms. Marvel #8: The Falcon And The Winter Soldier #9: Black Widow #10: Hawkeye #11: Thor Love And Thunder #12: Werwolf By Night #13: What If?... #14: Eternals #15: She-Hulk #16: Moon Knight

Regardless of nostalgia goggles or not spiderman no way home i think is gonna be one of the most rembered things in cinematic history. I send Spiderman when I was in elementary school and I'm almost 30 now. It's crazy to me that all that led to this.

The solution to the “homework situation” is make the series frickin good

I think creating several separate storylines that will tie in during big crossovers but not in little films is the way to go. Take Dr. Strange for example: if you’re a fan of him you can watch Dr. Strange 1 and 2 and WandaVision to understand his story, but you don’t need to watch something like Falcon and the Winter Soldier because they’re two separate stories told in the same world. And if Falcon for some reason needs to come into Dr. Strange, then that should be explained IN Dr. Strange’s story.

Have to agree with you regarding phase 4 I felt like it was more quantity over quality even did a tier list video on my channel for phase 4 but in terms of best movie no way home not only the experience of the movie but the journey getting there I remember watching your videos about set photos and leaks of the movie guessing if they will appear or not it was so much fun

*Phase 4 Movies Ranked:* 1. No Way Home 2. Multiverse Of Madness 3. Wakanda Forever 4. Shang-Chi 5. Thor: Love And Thunder 6. Black Widow 7. Eternals *Phase 4 Shows Ranked:* 1. Loki 2. WandaVision 3. Hawkeye 4. The Falcon And The Winter Soldier 5. Moon Knight 6. What If..? 9. Ms. Marvel 10. She Hulk

Chris has had more character development then any of these characters in phase 4

Overall, I think I can say that at least they did a pretty good job with all the main chatacters, even if I didn't really like the movie/show I can confidently say I'm excited to see the characters in future projects :)

I felt like phase 4 was more about Emotion the more I thing about it.🤔

Wakanda Forever was by far the best movie in Phase 4 in my opinion... not a dry eye in the theater

I honestly didnt hate phase 4 and im pretty glad they're getting diverse with their projects it allows them to make more interesting stories and also give it its own feel to it yes maybe not all hit the target but some of them i really loved and enjoyed like ms marvel werewolf by night wandavision wakanda forever no way home etc if the mcu is gonna keep making more unique projects then im down for it and interested on how everything goes the only real complain i have is the cgi while not all movies and shows looked terrible love and thunder was truly terrible with its cgi but other then all still enjoyed this phase

I LOVED Wakanda Forever! I really like how the Marvel logo was a tribute to Chadwick Bozeman!

-Things get worse before they get better

Dude I’m a big fan of your work.

I agree it was a mixed bag of good and bad. There were times I just didn't want to watch the next series, but knew I didn't want to miss out. I do have to admit I can't wait for the next phase and believe it will be just as good as end game. I feel it in my bones.

Phase 4 ended strong and of course it had its ups and downs but overall ir wasn’t a bad phase and I actually enjoyed it. Also I agree with the way that you ranked the movies :)

I like this phase a lot more than some people. Yes, it had its bumps but overall I still liked it.

I loved what you said about phase 4. Made me re-think some things. For a split second i thought you were a genius. Then you did your list. And that thought went away. Never do lists, bro. 😆👍

Yeah this phase has been disappointing!But I have loved some things. To me the best of this Phase was Loki. It’s without a doubt my favorite thing to come out this phase

You like She Hulk? 🤢🤮🤮

The point of the MCU is that they have to be connected, otherwise I would not care. I loved when in Iron Man 2 agent coulson tells Tony he is going to the south, and tony responds the land of enchantment. That’s my MCU

I think the problem with She-Hulk is that though it identified as a sitcom, it kinda didn't go hard on the humor. It was more like "stuff happening... was that funny?" Thing is, I could watch pretty much every movie and show again, even their worst stuff.
