Mine is that the Disney+ shows should not have any impact on the movies, that they should just be on their own.
The MCU should have ended a little after Endgame. The MCU Earth is now fundamentally different than current Earth to the point where it is harder to write resonant stories in that Earth.
That the MCU had to reach into the idea of multiverses is a symptom that the plot baggage of the MCU is now a drag on the franchise.
Not really a big reader of the comics, but from my understanding the multiverse isn’t really a fringe topic. Seems like it’s been a pretty central aspect of the comics for decades.
They made a pretty good comic-accurate show about a big green lady and a few million extremely online teen boys had their penises fall off. RIP.
I also enjoyed the Captain Marvel movie, and even the Marvels was pretty decent compared to the rest of marvel’s recent crap. But they have female leads, so I guess they’re tainted with original sin.
Most of the female heroes are extremely boring. Not because they’re females, but because their writers suck.
Most of the male heroes are boring and poorly written. And yet people are more angry about the female heroes than the male ones. You can’t pretend it’s about quality at this point.
It’s ok, they’ve learnt their lesson and won’t be tuning in for further projects.
They’ve (Disney/Marvel) found new audience and the old audience can be serviced elsewhere. Everyone wins 👌
They are extremely boring with little to no real threat and tedious fights where you know who’s going to win anyway
Character development? Probably the only actual thing that dies
With the first wave of movies I was really excited and enjoyed them immensely. Now the novelty has long since worn itself out. The cinematic universe plot is convoluted to a point of blandness. The multiple universe angle is stupid in comics and aggravating in cinema. The streaming series (across the board) instead of getting me interested in the movies has instead inoculated me against all of the Disney IP’'s.
Not exactly Marvel related, but I’m an adult now. Where are the movies dealing with mature themes and relatable plots?

They’re rare but are out there. I watched I Saw the TV Glow last weekend, really really nice film.
The only hot take for these types of surveys is: i don’t hate them.
What ever the subject is doesn’t matter. When you ask a group for input on their “hot take” devolves into a forum to shit on whatever the topic may be.
So my hot take is: I enjoy some of the movies while others I do not.
