With the general Marvel burnout as high as it is, I'll be amazed if this does well and we see a season 3.

I personally used to be the biggest marvel fan there was, and now you couldn't pay me money to watch these terrible shows and movies.

I think the majority of "Marvel burnout", for me at least, is on Marvel's side. I still want to enjoy Marvel's releases, it's just that their quality has dropped so much that I can't do that right now. And it's something Marvel has acknowledged, so it's something they'll likely improve on in future projects that haven't entered production yet, at least.

But yeah, I'm personally still in the "I want more good MCU" camp.

Its still better quality on the writing than the average comicbook story. And I still enjoyed the comics. So doubt I gonna tire of it before its so unpopular with the average person that Marvel can't afford making them any longer.

Remember that most comic books are written for kids. Thats been my experience at least, with very few exceptions

This one looks like it will pull me back in.

I'm not burned out on Marvel. Marvel made some bad production decisions during the pandemic. I'm pretty confident that the quality will improve moving forward into Phase 5

I’m utterly burned out on all things Marvel.

Despite it originally being the best thing about the movies, I feel like the interconnected cinematic universe is holding stuff back at this point.

Everything needs to fit in, and everything ends up being samey because of it.

I was never a marvel fan, i always thought their movies were ok 7/10(with the exception of guardians and thor 3). But i enjoyed loki season 1 and this season 2 trailer looks good and interesting.

In comparison i thought the latest ant man was almost ai written, full of cringe inducing cliches. Definitely one of the most mediocre movies of all time.

I just canceled my D+ subscription after Secret Invasion, it was that bad for me. I really liked Loki season 1, warts and all and I'm on the fence about signing back up again just for s2, but after that travesty of a show that was Secret Invasion and the string of other bad Marvel shows that Disney has been shoveling out, I'll probably sit this one out til the reviews come in.

It's not that I'm burned out on Marvel or Star Wars, I'm just burned out on bad, predictable writing. I feel like Andor really opened my eyes to what we could be getting, but we're not. Everytime I watch a Marvel or Star Wars show now I compare it to that and Secret Invasion just made me cringe the entire time. Everything felt so bad, things just happen for no reason, characters do things that make no sense because the writer needed them to do a thing, and the entire plot is just sort of this non-sensical mishmash of half-thought out ideas.
