  The new Spider-Man films are good tho

    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 watched 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

      Tom Hiddleston alone is worth watching in Loki

  I’ve enjoyed most of it

  I really like the storytelling and the worlds and fantasy they create

  The series are often much better than the movies

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

  You followed MCU?

    For a while, yeah; Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Black Panther (RIP Chadwick Boseman) are all peak.

  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

    That’s exactly it. The vast majority of later MCU stuff stopped focusing on how to tell a good standalone story. It all became a cycle of tying in earlier plot threads and then setting up new ones for later works to use.

    Basically, this became the identity of the entire MCU:

  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.
