Aubrey Plaza on the Lady Death suit
I’m starting to get the feeling that Kevin Feige is hearing all the criticisms going towards the MCU and, although he’s not acknowledging it in interviews, he’s silently addressing them as the franchise moves forward. What I mean by that is:
1) “MCU villains are lame and one-dimensional” -> Phase 3 and 4 villains are now widely praised, especially Killmonger, Thanos, Wenwu, and Zemo
2) “MCU is not cinema” -> hires Academy Award-winning director Chloe Zhao to take on Eternals. Also, he allows her to make this slow-burn, epic high fantasy that goes against typical superhero fare. Clearly, Marvel is aiming for the side of film circles that heap praise on “Dune” and Christopher Nolan movies.
3) “Avengers: Age of Ultron was not good in hindsight” -> WandaVision and What If…? are made to improve on AOU’s plot points
4) “I don’t understand the time travel mechanics in Endgame” -> Loki and What If…? are made to provide a better understanding of time in the MCU (don’t even start with me, the time travel stuff is understandable based on what I’ve seen)
5) “MCU hates Asian people, look what they did with Ancient One and Mandarin” -> corrects the Mandarin plot point by fixing Ben Kingsley’s version and introducing a proper version of the character, makes a whole movie dedicated to Asians/Asian-American, creates Eternals with multiple Asian leads
6) “Hawkeye is not funny and chaotic like how he is in the comics” -> literally makes a whole series that’s based primarily on the Matt Fraction run, the one that everyone praises
7) “MCU is not diverse” -> just all of Phase 4 (and most of Phase 3)
There are other criticisms, but those are the ones that came to mind.

Let’s be honest... they’ve probably done this.

💎 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗺! Bag of Goodberry Gummy Fish Wondrous item, uncommon ___
“Goodberry gummy fish" are gooey sweets that look like Tiny, gelatinous fish. When found, they typically come in bags of 1d6 + 10 gummies, which are almost always red.
A "goodberry gummy fish" functions like a single goodberry, as if by the "goodberry" spell, except that eating a gummy also grants you a swimming speed of 30 feet for 1 hour.
Alternatively, you can use an action to submerge a gummy in water to magically animate it, using the quipper’s statistics. If you submerge 5 or more gummies in water at the same time, they become a swarm of quippers instead of five separate ones. The quippers are friendly to you, but aren’t magically compelled to obey any of your commands. After 1 hour, the animated gummies dissolve and are destroyed. ___
