Everyone knows the tale of Brand X getting bought out by some faceless global conglomerate and going to shit, but does the opposite ever happen?

    I enjoyed the story arc leading up to Endgame, but since then, they’ve filmed so much that I just feel like I can’t keep up. The last movie I watched was Multiverse of Madness where I spent about half the movie going “Huh, I feel like I’m missing stuff from the Wanda TV show”. I had never seen Spider-Man: No Way Home, either. And I guess there was a Loki show and a Marvel “What If” series, too?

    Being a Marvel fan shouldn’t have to be a job!

      Thats how it is to read a Marvel comic too. I love it. But it is not for everyone. And in comics there is too much to keep up so you just accept that you cant.

        Yep. That would require a subscription to disney plus, but I’m not really interested in doing that. It’s too much effort for the payoff.

        What’s the payoff? Well, I watched Multiverse of Madness on a flight to see relatives last year. Out of the movies in the plane’s catalog, it was one of the more-interesting ones. So – the payoff is understanding a random in-flight movie a little better.

        I might just steer clear of any Marvel movies next time.
