    Can we stop beating the dead horse for a few years now? I’m so sick of MCU content; I still haven’t even bothered to watch the last like 4 of them.

      I take that either you browse by all and did not check what community this post is in, or you are subbed to something you are not interested in.

      Im not sick of MCU stuff. I’m of boring, churned out slop. Give me more Wanda vision. Give me characters who are interesting beyond having super powers. Give me stuff I’m gonna think about along side the graphics.

      If you haven’t bothered to watch the last 4 of em (Deadpool and Wolverine, The Marvels, GotG3, Quantumania) then why would you watch this one? Can’t you ignore it and let people enjoy things that don’t involve you?

        Because I do actually like the MCU and would like to see it improved. It’s just been overwhelming for too long and I’d like to express my opinion about that. I never said you or others can’t go enjoy it.

        TBH, My big problem is that they all tie into each other and there’s been a constant unending flood of them for years and years.

        If I wanted to watch this one; I’d have to overcome the burnout that set in half a decade ago and watch like 5 2.5hour movies in a row just to understand wtf is happening.

        I really don’t watch a ton of movies; to keep up with the MCU in any capacity, I’d basically have to abandon watching anything else and only ever see MCU content. It’s exhausting.

        I just want them to take a damn break for a while and let the public actually build some desire to see the content. I’m just one example/voice, but I’m certainly not the only one.

          That’s really been the problem, they stopped tying into each other with Phase 4 and 5.

          There’s a kind of touchstone between Loki on Disney+ with Quantumania and Deadpool and Wolverine, but they each stand alone.

          Other than that? The only crossover is the general mood of “boo hoo, I got snapped” or “boo hoo, my life got ruined when everyone else got snapped.”

          It’s not cohesive like it used to be.

          I do like that the new Cap movie throws back to Eternals and Incredible Hulk though…

      Thunderbolts* looks like it will be fun (5/2). After that?

      Superman (7/11)

      Fantastic Four (7/25)

      Both of those look like must see on a big screen events.
