I believe I have written on this ol' blog before about how I felt Marvel's cinematic universe was leading up to a big reboot. It would epically wrap up everything that had happened since 2008 and bring us a singular fresh Universe with elements of the past stories, but still totally new. That would make it easier for anybody to get into Marvel flicks who doesn't want to spend over a hundred hours watching movies or shows, and have a new starting point. Even though, "Reboot," is a loaded term, that has basically been confirmed by Marvel's movie head, Kevin Feige, as the plan. We could get a new universe with a recast Tony Stark, Captain America, teenage X-Men, and so forth. It'll all happen after, "Avengers: Secret Wars."
I'm all for Marvel wiping the slate (mostly) clean and giving us a brand new continuity to play with. Even hardcore fans will admit the current MCU can be a messy and bloated now with all the universes, shows that didn't seem to matter a ton (I did adore, "Wandavision," however, for what it was), and so forth. A fresh-ish start couldn't hurt, I'd imagine. I mean, starting over seems to have served DC well with the latest, "Superman," flick being a hit. In the end, it is a little funny to think just as how the comics often seem to resort to reboots, now the films are too.
