Adding TV shows into the mix that were average made it too much to bother keeping up, and I haven’t watched MCU since then.

Right? Like I'm not against going to the movies for a MCU show. But it just feels like I have to do homework to catch up before I can do so.

They did the same shit with their comic books. All of these overarching/crossover story lines made it so you had to do research before picking up a new title.

Compared to Hellboy where there’s cliff notes that reference to real world myths and obscure early seeded canon. The homework isn’t necessarily; it’s interesting and fun. It hints at more going on behind the scenes that you can discover and imagine for yourself. Marvel killed too many interesting villains off the bat, replaced wonder with cliffhangers, and exposition dumped anything worth wondering about to show off how completely connected their whole universe is.
