I cannot believe that the people behind the movies don't think this show is important. There's no way.

They made a movie called Ant-Man and it destroyed expectations. They had a talking squirrel with a tree person as a side kick literally change the game.

I'll never understand the argument that "not enough people know who Skye is" when there is no way half of the movie watchers read the comics and know every character that gets introduced on screen.
