Antara
The Dark World (The Collector Tease): The scene teased the Infinity Stones and Collector, raising huge expectations, but its payoff took years and felt disconnected initially.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (Adam Warlock): Ayesha revealed Adam Warlock, creating massive excitement, but his eventual arrival in the third film felt smaller than expected.
Spider-Man: Homecoming (Captain America PSA) - Captain America's humorous message was fun, yet fans expecting major story information received another joke instead of meaningful Marvel setup.
Ant-Man and the Wasp (Giant-Man Aftermath): Scott Lang's unexpected return to normal life became impossible after the Snap, making this post-credits moment instantly tragic instead.
Black Widow (Yelena's Hawkeye Setup): Yelena's introduction to Clint Barton raised excitement for a major confrontation, but the promised clash unfolded mainly through another Disney+ series.
Doctor Strange (Clea Arrives): Clea's sudden appearance promised a multiverse adventure with Strange, yet the next major chapter took a long time to materialize.
