I love emotional stakes. I don't love every movie ending with more organizations, characters, and relationships dead. This isn't the kind of emotional stakes I prefer to subject myself to. You see, to me, stakes means there's opportunity for winning or losing and there isn't that in MCU. There is only opportunity to see what gets salvaged from the wreckage. Not what I signed up for.
ETA: in other words, to me there aren't any stakes if you actually can't win. it's just as predictable as if you can't lose.
