This has always been the case, but it really has begun to feel obnoxious with Phase Four, like the MCU thinks the audience lacks object permanence or the ability to pull up grainy footage of its Hall H presentation. If those larger connections aren’t first established during the film itself, usually in a way that kind of kills the film’s pacing, then it’ll be a quick aside towards the end. There’s never been a question of how long the MCU will keep going, and we’ve known for some time now that these things will just continuously feed into each other. That finality for the lead characters or their personal journeys is nowhere to be seen for Thor or Captain America: the former becomes king of Asgard’s refugees for about 20 minutes before Thanos hits the button marked “cold open for Avengers: Infinity War,” and the guest-heavy Captain America: Civil War trades in a personal Steve journey for setting up character events in both Infinity War and Black Panther.
Avengers: Age of Ultron put Tony Stark in a weird spot post- Iron Man 3 and Spider-Man: No Way Home felt more like it only existed to crib from earlier Spider-Man movies, but they at least ended with their characters feeling complete in some form. With those aforementioned trilogies, particularly the ones for Spider-Man and Iron Man, things felt conclusive in their respective third installments, despite the fact that we knew we would (or will, in Spidey’s case) see them again. The newest extension to join that surprisingly slim roster is the recently released Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Over the course of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s 15-year history, the mega-franchise has managed to have four separate sub-series cut off at three films: Iron Man, Steve Rogers’ Captain America films, Spider-Man’s “Home” trinity, and Thor (depending on which film you want to pretend doesn’t exist). Even now in this age of cultural reexamination, there are still trilogy closers like Blade Trinity or X-Men: The Last Stand that folks won’t really go to bat for and say they’re better than remembered.

Regardless of actual quality, a trilogy gives the sense of resolution that just doesn’t exist anymore in the age of franchise content.īut trilogies have been something of a tough nut to crack in the genre space for films, especially for Marvel. Back then, a trilogy felt like a good number of films not too little, not too much, and adequately enabling character arcs for both hero and supporting cast.

The structure of superhero movie franchises sure has changed, hasn’t it? It’s easy to forget, but pre-2008, these tentpole blockbusters usually capped themselves at a trilogy of movies, whether they wanted to or not. The Majora's Mask poster I received was manufactured by Pyramid International.IMAX poster for Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania. Doesn't have an "Official Nintendo Licensed Product" stamp visible on it, but in my previous experience with this poster design the stamp was actually on the plastic wrap that secure the poster to the cardboard backing (neither of which came with this poster since it was delivered in a shipping tube) and not on the poster itself.
I've tried half a dozen online storefronts (including the official Pyramid America storefront) to find this poster at the same quality as an original I got at a convention years ago, and so far ABPosters is the only source that actually had a proper 24x36 product (the other storefronts mostly sold posters that were poorly upscaled 12x18 prints with painfully obvious artifacting / pixelation, and the only one that wasn't pixelated was actually a 22x34 with darker colors).
Great image quality as well, with no visual artifacting / pixelation. Poster is as pictured with great color, contrast, and material quality.
