I am a ride or die fan of Marvel Studios, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. No matter what story they choose to tell, I will anticipate it with the same kind of excitement as a child on Christmas Eve, ready to unwrap a new present. That’s why I’ve circled the (constantly changing) release dates for such upcoming Marvel movies as The Marvels, Deadpool 3, and Captain America: Brave New World. But even a rabid fan like me can tell that the studio is painting itself into a corner as it heads into Phase 5, and I’m not sure what it can do to right the ship as it moves forward.
