2 years after Marvel changed the Earth in an almost unimaginable way, the MCU's newest movie has ignored the easiest way to address a huge plot hole.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Despite underwhelming initial box office performance, The Marvels is in the top half of the best MCU movies quite easily, but it missed a huge opportunity to fix a glaring Marvel plot hole. Nia Dacosta's sequel, which strongly addresses accusations that Brie Larson's Captain Marvel has lacked character development, is roaring good fun, and impressively avoids being sunk by the weight of 32 movies worth of Marvel lore.
With so many establishing shots of Earth, having just one of the dead Celestial would have been incredibly straightforward. And more importantly, it would have been a much-needed reminder that the MCU hasn't simply forgotten that there's a giant robot god carcass poking out of the Earth's surface. Showing it without referencing it would have gone a long way to breaking what is now the ultimate elephant in the room.
