I don't know, I see it as very similar to Guardians of the Galaxy. It can go really well, but it can also get messed up very badly. In fact much of Phase 3 is really high risk-high reward. Black Panther facially seems like it could go well, but need I remind people of the Daredevil film? Doctor Strange could work, but it could just as easily fall into Ghost Rider territory (mediocre at best). Captain Marvel could also go either way. Not to mention Spiderman, seeing as they have now had five films and none have quite gotten it right.

Then you have Civil War which might be trying to do too much. Same goes for Ragnarok, and Infinity Wars. Frankly I see a lot of risk and a lot of payoff, but Phase 2 really only has two questions, Guardians (which was far better than I thought it could be) and Ant-Man (the premise is hard to sell to me, but it looks good so far). The only guarantee about Phase 3 is that the films will do well. Whether they are good, I do not know.
