Tbh, I stopped following the MCU after Infinity War, and if what I’ve read about the absolute clusterfuck that is post-Endgame is true, I’m not really inclined to get back into it.

    all the shows after MCU endgame were just promotions for thier movie promotions , to other movie or show promotions, nothing more.

    stand alone movies are so much better than what MCU is doing, i would hate when and if they release a new ghost rider movie. the 1st one with mephisto was so much better(at least the actor). instead they had to tease it in the stereotype of AA people, black lightning or whatever it was called, using sacha baren cohen.

    And Guardians vol. 3, and some people really like Loki while other people really dislike Loki.

    But I think that's all.

    Yeah, if OP enjoyed Guardians 1-2, and then skipped 3, they really missed out.

    The guardians were such good stand alone movies I wish they hadn't been a part of the MCU and just developed on their own. It was kind of jarring to watch 1 and 2 then come back to 3 with a bunch of plot progression and character development you have to watch unrelated movies to understand

    This is literally one of the issues that killed comic books.

    People that weren't super into reading every single comic would be lost on interrelated and changing plot points.

    I think it's hilarious that marvel is literally making the same mistake but this time on a different medium.

    I was about to say, this is what got us the Marvel Implosion in the 90s. Nobody reading the Phoenix Saga in the X-Men wants to see "the story is continued in Avengers #459", or wants to hunt down 40 different titles to read the entirety of Civil War or whatever.

    It was utter garbage for a while, like such bad writing and so obviously formulaic that I'd get pissed off about it. Especially the Dr strange one...I was pissed because i was excited for another dr strange one and it wasn't even enjoyable. It's makes no sense, they did nothing with the characters, it was like a whirlwind trailer to set up new overarching plot lines

    Part of it might be that my expectations dropped to the floor after that, but I've found that after they cancelled everything and course corrected they've gradually gotten better. If doomsday is good I'll probably get invested again, I am excited to see the mutants get involved in the main plot

    The spider man series are still good though, aside from lady web...I don't know what was going on with that

    A year or so back I decided I was going to catch up. I went back to Iron Man and started rewatching the entire series in release order, at most one a night after everyone else was in bed.

    I didn't even make it through Endgame. I watched up to Endgame, started watching it, paused it, and for all I know, it's still paused.
