If they'd made Flash NOT be faster than the naked eye (he can only go Mach 1 or something) and have him not be able to keep up his speed for long (it drains his strength) then we'd have a better explanation.
And it showed more inventiveness than Apocalypse somehow being able to think fast enough to trap QS's foot in sand.
Quicksilver isn't The Flash though. Just because he doesn't have fear over something doesn't mean an entirely different human being can't have fear. He's young, inexperienced and scared and that is why he made mistakes. Mistakes that keep him from being stupidly OP and ending the movie at the first chance.
Quicksilver defeating himself in Age of Ultron was just another silly gag in a movie with too many and like with Ultron made another villain seem non threatening. Apocalypse has an ability that allows him to adapt to things, that was something he could do in the comic and it was used for the movie so he beat Quicksilver. Don't be ashamed of the comics.
If Thor defeated Hela in some generic way, like his "inner power" being enough, I would've complained. But he thought of something different.
You would never have complained about something with the MCU. You're being contradictory here, you're saying it would be lazy for Ultron to be powerful from the start but then you have Hela who is even more powerful than Ultron from the start...and that's ok. They already said Thanos is the most powerful being in the Universe so he is powerful from the start.
What do you want, for Cap to be able to smash Ultron to bits all on his own?
No they should have made other scenes that play to his strengths. These Avengers movies, and I'd suspect the new one too going by the trailer, have him repeatedly fight people way out of his league and so he keeps getting stomped and his only worth has been beating up some fodder but still having less impact than the others.
She did more damage to him than Superman did! Inconsistent power levels. WW can damage Doomsday but can't damage Superman? She can't damage Steppenwolf either?
Superman had just been weakened after being pelted at twice with Kryptonite gas. The only damage that Wonder Woman caused Doomsday was down to the God Slayer Sword and she didn't use it on Superman because she obviously wasn't aiming to cut his limbs off. She used it on Steppenwolf but he was armoured and had the combat skill and Electro Axe to counter it but it would have damaged him had it landed because originally it was intended that Wonder Woman was going to chop his head off but that was considered too violent.
Physically Wonder Woman is no match at all for Superman or Doomsday but she is closer to Steppenwolf as was shown when she and Aquaman pulled him with the lasso whereas even with Cyborg they couldn't budge Superman.
A New Hope had Vader kill Kenobi.
That ain't Luke Skywalker and Kylo Ren though.... No people were anticipating the return of Luke Skywalker, it was expected throughout the movie that he would show up at the end when things are at their worse and so he made some grand comeback where he then fought the bad guy and he was always going to be portrayed in a hyped up way where he was super powerful. They did the same thing with Superman and it was always going to be done that way.
