It isn’t hard to watch a movie or two to stay connected…
But now I gotta still watch
Loki, Hawk Eye, The Marvel’s, and I think one other to be properly up to date. Instead of maybe 5 hours, that’s like 20 hours overall, and then some of these TV things aren’t as good so it becomes a slog
This drives me absolutely bonkers. It’s one thing when several different authors think the universe is cool and want to create unique stories within it (e.g. the Star Wars EU), but it’s entirely another when one approving board is seeking to maximize profits through a heavily templated story arc. It’s disingenuous to storytelling and lacks more than a modicum of authenticity. It’s why I struggle to watch any serial with more than three seasons. At a certain point as a viewer, you can tell when the story should naturally end and when the writers are told to drag it out.
