She-Hulk: Attorney at Law's finale is one of the major topics of discussion among fans after it unexpectedly showcased a game-changing installment.

Why She-Hulk Mocking the MCU is Actually Clever
Amid the issues raised by Jen to KEVIN, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law's meta approach in incorporating actual MCU content is a brilliant and historic move.
The timing is right that the Disney+ series did this during this exact moment, considering that there are enough projects and characters to reference in that Jen and KEVIN encounter.
The MCU references also appear to be Marvel's way of flexing its vast amount of projects, a strategy that cannot be replicated by other studios.
It's likely that the scene choices that are featured in the quick montage are random, but Marvel still managed to find a way to include iconic scenes from movies, such as Iron Man's walking away moment from his first movie and T'Challa's entrance in the final battle of Black Panther.
While a She-Hulk Season 2 has yet to be confirmed, the finale opens up tons of storytelling opportunities to explore while also allowing the meta references in the future to grow as the MCU further expands in Phase 5 and beyond.
All episodes of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law are now streaming on Disney+.
