This is a unpopular opinion, but I think these characters character ark is already over

Ant-Man: His character ark was about protecting legacy. Now the Pym Particels are gon.
Thor: Thor’s character ark is about ignorance, he has already learned, he accepted defeat and gave the throne the Valkyrie
Guardians: There character ark is about acceptance, inevitably they had to accept Gamora’s death.
I love all those characters but they already have a good ending, but that is just my opinion

Honestly, I don't even think Scott has a real arc, but it's definitely not about legacy, which wouldn't be dependant on the existence of Pym Particles (which are still around)
Ignorance is definitely not the correct word. He has learned and therefore appointed Valkyrie King, but that is not his arc. It's more about understanding how to be worthy of the throne, for which he ended up understanding was not for him. Now his arc is about finding his path, so it's nowhere near done.
The Guardians don't have an arc, each individual Guardian has one, and there all different.However, nothing of their arcs is acceptance or inevitability. If anything, they are now still hoping to find Gamora, despite her not being their Gamora.
They definitely did not have endings. Maybe endings within the film, but not "endings" like Tony or Steve.

I'm sorry but I didn't see any ending for Scott or the Guardians... Last time we saw Scott, he got stuck in the quantum realm, and then saved the world... And then ? And the Guardians can't be finished... Nebula just got "accepted" in the Guardians (she was before but then went for 4 years to kill Thanos), Groot's still a teenager, Drax and Mantis don't really have en arc, Quill's looking for Gamora, and Gamora is 4 to 9 years late... Only Rocket is, in my opinion, ready to leave the mcu with dignity, because he evolved since guardians 1, and had his chance to give a shit, like Quill would say.

Ant-Man, Guardians of the Galaxy; those next movies would be in phase 5.

Ant-Man's story does not seem finished to me either. the Ghost situation still seems unresolved.

Well you did get the “unpopular opinion” part correct.

You got that going for you.

Thor isn’t really an unpopular opinion though. ant man and gaurdians are but their arcs are nowhere near done

What do you think?
