    It's in that bubble that Sony is creating like Venom, no direct references as yet but once Sony's current contract with Marvel expires in 2021 they plan to role Holland's Spider-Man over into these franchises for Venom 3, Morbius 2 etc. Technically more like the Marvel Cinematic Extended Universe in a way

                What’s The Eternals? I don’t think I’ve ever heard of that. Well known in comics?

                  I don't think it's one of the main comic lines, there's supposed to be some sort of loose connection to Thanos but I strongly suspect that this project came about because Marvel planned to make The Inhumans only to have that project ruined by Marvel TV. Eternals was likely set up as a replacement before they learnt they were getting the X-Men franchise back as both deal with genetic evolutions of humans.

                    That makes sense. I know DC have been doing well on TV but I feel that Marvel are pretty much just wasting characters there given how well they do on film. Like a movie-sized Daredevil could work great now and the Inhumans could have fit right in with the cosmic stuff they have going on.

                      I'm still expecting Marvel to one day sever all non-Disney+ service series from the Marvel canon. There's rumours Deathlok will be the second MCU character to appear in a film having already been in a series but without the TV actor. Like you say, they're wasting properties and it feels unlikely they'll forever ignore characters like Daredevil, Punisher and Ghost Rider or be beholden to those series they weren't directly overseeing

                        Netflix did just fine with all their marvel programs and are all worth watching. It was everything else that was/is complete crap.

                          I only made it half way through Daredevil and I know it was popular so I don't want to dismiss that but I don't think it was doing what they can do with characters in the movies. I think a character like that will ultimately bring much more value in the movie universe than TV.

                            Going to come in from the other perspective and say I never liked the Marvel Netflix shows. I tried to start them a few times and just couldn't get into them, which wasn't helped by Marvel out-and-out declaring that they wouldn't directly rub shoulders with the "proper" cast. It falls into that DCU "well, technically..." answer to "are they connected" that just pulls me right out of the experience.

                              Season 1 of Daredevil was good. I couldn't get into the other ones. Just found them slow and almost gritty-for-the-sake-of-it.

                                Jessica Jones first season was good. I didn't really like much else.
                                Daredevil seemed OK, but it never grabbed me. I was spoilt by reading the Brian Michael Bendis Daredevil run anyway which is just too good for words.
