The "MCU pros/cons" balance thread

This is how this thread will work.

Name one thing you liked about the MCU which you think deserves praise (pro). Then name one thing you hated about the MCU which you think deserves criticism (con). They need to always be done in pairs. You can post multiple points you liked/disliked as long as they come in pairs, one pro and one con.


Try to make sure that the pro and con points you pair up are roughly equal in importance/weight to you. The objective is that the pros and cons should roughly cancel each other out. So don't make a pair that's completely skewed like for example:

Pro: The MCU has slightly decent music
Con: The MCU have ridiculously bad plots

or maybe something skewed the other way like:

Pro: The MCU have the greatest casting ever
Con: Black Widow's hair color in IW is somewhat weird

You can't post about something you really liked unless you can pair it with something you really hated and vice versa. If you post something you only slightly disliked then you need to match it with something you only slightly liked as well. Hope you get the point.


Anyway, let me start.

Pro: The MCU (usually) has great fight choreography
Con: The MCU (usually) have horrible female costumes

Pro: The MCU lucked-out with Hiddleston as Loki, making movie Loki way more interesting and likeable than comic Loki.
Con: Scarlet Johansson is pretty miscast as Black Widow, who ended up making the character way more boring than it should be.
