As a comic nerd I thoroughly enjoyed it but I guarantee it will not stand the test of time just like how people shit on AoU now.

This movie set up so much and worked as a middle child to various bookends and tied up a lot of shit and not only that the shit it did is insane.

  1. Brought back The Leader that was teased over a fucking decade ago
  2. Set up not just Wolverine but also The Silver Samurai and the introduction to Chris fucking Claremont
  3. Closed off celestials loop
  4. Set up red/green hulk conflict

So help me god if Marvel can do Wolverine in Japan storyline I will jizz my pants.

I do wonder if The Leader was included just so he can exist after the universe reboot. Like we can't reference his backstory if we don't acknowledge him, but now that we did, he can come back.

Unless something is unannounced and upcoming I don't see the Leader fitting into any upcoming MCU projects, so why bring him back?

I think no one would know but I think the idea of having villians they can reach back into at times is of value for subplots or even full on threads. Like Ultron could come back.

I want them to do more than villian of the week

Strong agree. I think Loki is one of the best MCU characters because of his frequent appearances as a reoccurring villain or general annoyance. I would love for The Leader to have gotten away in this film, secretly working on something.

Look at Thanos, his first major appearance is in Guardians of the Galaxy where he's working with Ronan. From that point on we don't know what he's up to, but he's out there.

Ultron is another great example. Ultron, like Arnim Zola, should be squirreled away somewhere.
