 Did Marvel make their first mistake?
Simply from a monetary option.
If you really look at Infinity War it's four mini films combined. I'm guessing they weren't expecting the results of both Thor 3 and Black Panther.
You seriously could have made Thanos the villain in all of them.
Guardians/Thor4 (It expands on Zandar and Gamora is the end)
Iron Man/ Dr. Strange/Spidey
Black Panther/ Post Avengers/ Cap (Throw in Vision and Wanda)
Avengers 3
I guess the only thing I am addressing on is I love the films, and I really liked this movie, I'm just like this is going to be the "Sparknotes" version the whole time.
It's that weird moment where success actually taints success.
Thoughts?

 Re: Did Marvel make their first mistake?
I don't think so, if you burn Thanos early and Guardians, Strange, etc. being involved with the other heroes it would just make Avengers 3 and 4 into Age of Ultron type grossers hence cancelling out the benefit of inflating the other films. Not to mention dilute the brand. If they nail Infinity War 2 it will leave Marvel in an epic place good will wise and set them up to keep printing money into the 2020s long after Iron Man and Captain America are retired

I just think it would be kind of unique to have Thanos the villain across the universe for 4 films (And no Avengers 3) and you have 5 films doing over 1.2 billion WW as opposed to 2. It's not a mistake, but it could have been an interesting way to go to extend the major players. I just could have taken an entire Iron Man 4/Spiderman/Guardians film.

Inhumans!
Marvel actually took that off the MCU movie release schedule and left it for TV. Dodged a bullet there.

 Re: Did Marvel make their first mistake?
Adding Thanos in a solo movie would have not helped IW and the boost would not have been big enough. It wasn't a mistake to keep Thanos in shadows.
