AND WHAT IM SAYING....
WHETHER THESE MOVIES
WERE KANG DYNASTY/SW
OR DOOMSDAY/SW
PHASES 4 AND 5 DIDNT DO ENOUGH
TO GET US TO THIS POINT.
KANG DYNASTY WOULD HAVE
UNDER PERFORMED BECAUSE
THEY DIDNT PUT IN ENOUGH QUALITY WORK
TO BUILD IT UP....
MAJORS CATCHING THE CASE
AND RDJ COMING BACK
WAS THEIR BLESSING IN DISGUISE
JUST TO GARNER INTEREST


the work they did was to introduce a series of characters that they believed would make up the secret war. The new avengers, the thunderbolts, and the young avengers. The D+ shows were built almost entirely around this. Plus other random people in post credits like fukkin adam warlock, Hercules, the black knight, blade, Clea, eros and fukkin pip.
NONE of it worked. NOBODY cared more, it built NO anticipation and it was a total fail. So yeah, where did that bring them...back to Downey.
EDIT: and the list you just posted above is right; they planned it out...it just fukkin failed
