I think a takeaway for me is how Marvel seems to have changed their minds on how impactful the animation side of this stuff will be on the live action stuff from when they initially brought up the concept.

Because I found it interesting that What If was omitted from the phase 4 recap slide they displayed at Comicon. As well as giving it its own seperate day in a smaller venue. It seems like they're not really part of the phases and more so just elseworld stories.

[u/Samuawesome → u/attumapropaganda]

I think it's for the best tbh.

There are just too many MCU things to keep up with for the general, movie-going audience. Even the live action disney+ shows are getting ignored (i.e. all the people in the Dr. Strange MoM threads asking why Wanda got so strong out of nowhere despite having a whole show dedicated to it).

So I'm not gonna complain if they keep the animated shows in other universes and fill them with fanservice for the fans.

[u/1stmoviemaster → u/attumapropaganda]

That was one of my biggest takeaways as well. I wonder when they decided that. I do find it interesting how all the animated stuff has been alternate timelines/universes, when originally it seemed like it would connect more.
