This writer's strike could be a blessing in disguise for the MCU.
I've kind of tuned out of it, partly because of some subpar recent movies, but also because there's simply so much MCU content that I haven't been able to keep up with it. If this strike drags out and no new MCU movies or shows can be made, that gives us some much-needed time to get caught up, and when something new *does* come out after a long delay it will break box office records.
I remember when the 007 series went on hiatus after the tepidly received (and underrated) Timothy Dalton movies. When the trailer for GoldenEye dropped six years later, theater audiences literally cheered and the film became a massive hit, because people had been given time to miss James Bond.
I hope Disney stops tying the Marvel movies so tightly to the Marvel mini-series shows airing on Disney+. Not everyone subscribes to Disney+, and it's offputting to the more casual movie viewers to discover they're missing bits of information or character development because they never saw a particular mini-series.
I also hope they slow down and let us get to know the new characters BEFORE plunging them into another "Save the Universe!" crossover adventure. There were a lot of standalone movies and smaller crossovers (Avengers) before the big finale of Infinity War and Endgame, and that is the reason those two movies worked.
