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!

going “Huh, I feel like I’m missing stuff

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.

You absolutely needed to watch the show to not get complete whiplash from Scarlet Witch Wanda

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.

Exactly. After they claimed that you wouldn't need to watch the shows to know what's going on.
