Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

And this, my fellow Lemmings, we call gatekeeping.
I actually meant it somewhat sarcastically, but I obviously failed in getting that across. I just found it funny that they would refer to themselves as a Marvel fanboy and in the same breath admit to not watching their best content.
Having said that, I'll happily keep that gate if it prevents more dross like She-Hulk from getting made.
It totally missed the mark even if it was sarcastic. I don't think a "/s" in the end would've saved that.
Calling yourself a fanboy is perfectly reasonable even if you haven't seen every episode or movie out there. They like it, they can call themselves a fan.
Furthermore, not everyone can afford a Disney+ subscription to watch the full Marvel lore or can't afford the time to catch up. That doesn't restrict them from being a fanboy.
We'll agree to disagree. This just came across as someone calling themselves a Tolkien fanboy when the only content they'd consumed was Rings of Power, or a Star Wars fanboy because they once saw the Holiday Special.
She-Hulk is objectively the worst thing Marvel have ever put out, and was actively insulting to fans.
Also, they clearly do have a Disney+ subscription if they watched it. Nobody would pirate that.
