holy hell that is embarrassing, so many airshots, reacting to hits before they are even made or even not made when DD falls in to the table of guns when echo actor forgot to punch, felt like minimum effort went in to practising the fight, 1 take and wrap it up. Still amazes me the fans left around gobbling this slop up.

They need to focus on one-offs, sporadically and ideally Multiverse stories. That way we can get properly written alternate stories about characters we care about. They could easily do an Iron Man series without any baggage about the canon, the films or paying Downey Jr's fee but benefit from utilising a popular character. Even during peak MCU I struggle to picture anyone caring less about Echo.
For all the fuss that's made I'm not sold that Daredevil will be that big of a deal either rather than just seen as more of an already old show that was declining in interest even then, god knows why they greenlit so many episodes of it too.

The Marvel Netflix Series Now In MCU Canon - Dark Horizons
They were in, then they were out, then they were in, then they were out and now Disney have shaken it all about and the roster of Netflix series are once again officially part of the canon. Tears of sorrow for Agents of Shield, Inhumans etc that remain outside of the canon.

Probably a good thing. Feels like all the big brands need a little chill out time.
As for the Netflix shows being canon now, that could well be the case but I'd caution against reading too much into Disney+ listings because the team who curate Disney+, while communicating with Marvel Studios of course, are essentially a different company and ultimately make decisions about what to show where based on what they think will benefit their available content.

This came up on my Youtube front page and struck a chord with me - I enjoyed GOTG3 though it wasn't my favourite entry or a GOAT superhero film but watching the trailer it reminded me of the difference Gunn's films have over the vast majority of MCU entries.
There's an endless supply of world saving, action filled, quippy adventures but how often have they gone to the effort to actually make you care about the characters? Are there any characters in the MCU currently, out of the huge array both in it and recently introduced, that you have any emotional attachment to?
The MCU has now been in play for 16 years, it should be possible for it to have events and moments that can shock audiences or break their hearts just like TV shows can.
It's been half a decade since Endgame now, if they did a film where a villain killed 70% of the worlds heroes... would you care?

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has ebbed and flowed in some interesting ways over the years, introducing an ever-growing number of characters into the superhero franchise. That includes fan-favorite character Jennifer Walters / She-Hulk, who Tatiana Maslany brought to life in the 2022 Disney+ series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. The MCU has been selective about greenlighting […]
Maslany says She-Hulk: Season 2 isn't likely due to how expensive the original run was
