Lol, what’s the point in watching a TV series for a franchise you absolute abhor?

I don't hate it lol, I liked Jessica Jones season 1 before it become a mess, and Luke Cage season 1 before they killed the best character of the series and it become a mess again.

So far, the best Marvel TV show has been Daredevil which has been pretty good with actual mature content, great fights and a great villain.

It's just a big TV series directed by talentless hacks, and has no stakes. All the character development is swept under the rug, there's no recognizable talent, wit and heart.

Their films are flash-in-the-pan that gets hyped and then forgotten i guess, since anyone can see how IW lacks of a logical or good story structure or that Civil War was just a bathroom brawl, and people spitting jokes so... a tonally inconsistent mess.

Give me Hulk, Spider-Man 1 and 2 (despite their flaws), Logan, Man of Steel and Sin City over anything from the MCU.

Maybe their status quo in the comics will change.
If I could add one thing to the MCU as it stands, it would be a bit more comic representation. I feel like Star Wars does a better job with tie-in's to their movies and other content, and since they're under the Marvel Comics umbrella as well, there's no reason it couldn't work just as well. I know there are the "Prelude" comics for most MCU movies, but they almost always end up being comic retreads of the previous movie with a page or two of unseen content. I've just found it ironic that MCU content doesn't have much comic-related media to it aside from that.

Witchcraft looks really cool in the MCU. It makes for some really neat sky battles that don't just feel like pinball games. It reminds me a lot of how cool some of the magic battles were in "Once Upon a Time", and what they would have looked like if they had a Disney+ budget.
I appreciate that

Also yeah, I think the MCU moving forward will absolutely have an ever-growing home for magic- whether it be Strange, Wanda, Dr. Doom, or even the next generation of characters. It looks fantastic and colorful, something most MCU projects need desperately and that I think elevated WandaVision to all-new levels.

I don't like Lynch but that does not mean i ever disliked "The Straight Story" in the first place. Got it?

Also, I think JJ and Luke Cage are mediocre overall.

Daredevil's comicbooks, like Miller's origin story are good. So are Claremont's X-Men, i don't hate Marvel.

So i actually liked the show despite the sound being off.

I don't remember whatever they are MCU or not, but i did enjoy that show, and to a lesser degree some episodes of AoS.

I like some Marvel stuff so i look forward to the Falcon series... I hope it's actually better than this.

I like Thor 1, it's a *** out of *****.

I went with all good expectations but the novelty of the sitcom really wore off, so not my fault if the show wasn't good atleast, for me.

Sounds like they might have changed stuff around in the films to make them play into each other differently now though.
It's moved twice: first to early November (so, right after Halloween), then to March, 2022. It was as a result of the first move that the order switched, then Strange moved again when Spidey moved to later in the year (first November, then December).

Just caught up and wow, such an amazing finish. Super excited to see where it all goes next.

And inevitably, of course the usual suspects parade through letting us know they hated the show, just as they knew they would from the beginning. Waiting for Greasytroll to rear it's head.
