This article explores some of the most pointless post-credits scenes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, arguing that they add nothing to the overall narrative and sometimes feel like a waste of studio resources.

With the iconic post-credits scene found at the end of 2008's Iron Man, the Marvel Cinematic Universe cemented themselves as the franchise who popularized end-credits teases, setting up plot threads for future films. However, over the almost 17 years of Marvel Studios' reign over Hollywood, not every post-credits scene is considered to have much impact or meaning compared to the rest.

Sometimes, at the end of the film, if Marvel seemingly doesn't have something to tease, they'll throw in a more jokey after-credits gag, that really, at the end of the day, adds nothing to the overarching story. At times, they're actually quite funny, regardless of having no meaning, but other times they can just simply feel useless and like a waste of the studio's money. 10 The Grandmaster's Announcement 'Thor: Ragnarok' (2017) Thor: Ragnarok was a huge success for Marvel Studios. Some claim that the new direction for Thor (Chris Hemsworth) saved the character, but regardless of opinion, it killed it in reviews and at the box office. However, unfortunately, for those who stuck around the after-credits scenes, they were met with one that had no impact on anything. As The Grandmaster (Jeff Goldblum) crashes into the junkyards of Sakaar, he's met with the scavengers and goes on a short monologue, attempting to treat the revolution as nothing and calls it a'draw'. Although everyone loves some good Jeff Goldblum, this scene is pointless, especially since The Grandmaster has yet to be seen again
