Alright, let’s talk about Thunderbolts*, Marvel’s big team-up movie that’s kinda like The Suicide Squad but dressed in MCU seriousness. Fans are hyped because hey, it’s Marvel, and even with a few recent duds, the faithful are still holding onto hope. And yeah, post-Deadpool & Wolverine, the excitement meter’s rising again.

But here’s the thing: Thunderbolts* is walking on a pretty wobbly tightrope. It’s got a stacked cast of morally grey misfits like Bucky and Yelena, a dark, edgy vibe, and big crossover energy, yet there’s this lingering feeling that Marvel might’ve tossed in a few too many wild cards. Someone really thought it was a great idea to throw Sentry, a dude with the power of a million exploding suns, into a squad full of glorified super spies.
