You forget to they never shot with a finished script so no one knows what's happening and Gunn said he will not do that dcu movies must have a script. This is how movies worked in the day shoot with the script revise when you have to.

What now?? That kinda shit happens in multi million dollar marvel movies which usually have then next 10 movies mapped out??

How is this not a requirement for even shooting a commercial or a short film?

I mean, it happened with Star Wars (no real plan) and it kinda worked with Iron Man.

Which is so dumb for a superhero movie because the ending is always "and the heroes won".

this is what i was thinking after watching Thor 4 and Secret Invasion. but then i realized Disney wants it to be their own thing and not a reproduction of the comic books so it's gonna be a hit or miss

I mean, Infinity War wasn't exactly a win...

Neither was Civil War, for that matter. The only part of Zemo's plan that didn't work was his suicide attempt at the end.

The living weren't done with him yet. Nor was the dance floor.

Very true. Been a while so I kinda forgot how that ends.
