10 Harsh Realities Of The MCU's Biggest Marvel Villains

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Marvel Cinematic Universe has featured many important Marvel villains, but the franchise's handling of some of these characters leaves much to be desired. Though the movies of the MCU primarily focus on the franchise’s many heroes, no superhero story would be complete with an appropriately powerful antagonist.

9 Age Of Ultron Made Its Villain Non-Comic-Accurate Ultron Was Beaten Too Easily Close Avengers: Age of Ultron PG-13 Where to Watch *Availability in USDirector Joss Whedon Release Date May 1, 2015 Runtime 141 minutes Many of the MCU’s greatest innovations have stemmed from disregarding the source material. Moving away from Marvel’s pre-established stories allows the franchise to offer shocking and emotional moments, as well as keeping those well-versed in Marvel lore guessing.

7 Thanos’ Soul Stone “Sacrifice” Was Never Shocking Thanos Had Already Been Established As A Horrific Father Close Thanos is undoubtedly one of the MCU’s most powerful villains, as demonstrated by his ability to harness the collected power of the Infinity Stones. One of the key factors in his strength is his steadfast conviction, allowing him to overcome obstacles that would stop practically any other character.

Considering her Avengers teammates knew she was grieving after losing Vision, allowing her to go off alone despite knowing the dark potential of her powers was irresponsible. Had some of Wanda's friends taken the time to support her, she likely wouldn’t have been put in the vulnerable position where Agatha was able to manipulate her. This would have prevented her from becoming the Darkhold-wielding Scarlet Witch, and ultimately could have prevented her death.

Most of Loki’s might stemmed from his use of an Infinity Stone and the Chitauri army he borrowed from Thanos. It was then revealed that Thanos was the mastermind behind the attack anyway, and that Loki had simply been doing his bidding. This creates an unfortunate subtext that Loki was never the level of villain he appeared to be, but rather a placeholder until Marvel were ready to formally introduce Thanos to the franchise.
