The MCU didn't properly address the aftermath of the Blip aka The Snap

Theory

I think one of the major failures in the MCU and one of th reasons it's not fairing so we'll post Endgame is that it didn't grapple with the aftermath of the Blip properly.

This was a major event in the MCU, something that it was building up to over the course of nearly a decade and something that doubtless impacted the characters and people in that world.

And yet, following Endgame, there seems to be few, if any films that dealt with the human cost of it and impact of it on the world.

Surely for something that had such a huge impact on the characters and audiences, there should have been stories dealing with it.

Given th success of both Infinity War and Endgame, this was doubtless a story that meant a lot to audiences.

And yet, to my knowledge, nothing that properly dealt with it. I think there's a story waiting to be told there, whether one that revisits the time right after the Snap or one that deals with it in the MCU here and now, as surely that sort of incident has echoes long after it occurs.
