"why can't they just make it good"
well, as it turns out, good, truly good and griping, is hard.
when you have the stars who can carry just about anything, quality can slip a bit, but when you don't, and it's been proven the stars you're using, aren't compelling personalities, for whatever reason, and don't have the draw themselves, good becomes paramount. and because the mcu is built around intertwined narratives which are almost completely dependent on characters, when the characters themselves aren't working (mackie, larson, et all) and the narrative itself is far past being played out, you're sorta up a creek.
