Wandavision was one of the last things Marvel has put out that I honestly enjoyed. It's been much more rough since (with a couple exclusions, but yeah, downhill trend for me mostly)

I enjoyed Loki. I thought the tone for Hawkeye was a bit off. I was expecting a fun Christmas romp and they randomly drop some serious stuff on you.

Not gonna lie though. I haven't been to the cinema to watch an MCU movie in a while. Shang Chi was the last one, I think? Dr Strange, and Thor getting a critically poor reception made me skip them. Gotg3 did well but now I feel like I gotta do homework to catch up so I couldn't be arsed.

I agree with the downhill trend. I am looking forward to catching The Marvels though because it looks like fun.

Gotg is standalone. You can watch it right after Endgame and wouldn't miss anything.

"Standalone" - "watch after endgame" Unfortunately you contradict yourself. My wife watched GotG 1 & 2, but none of the Infinity War or Endgame. If it was truly standalone, then she wouldn't have been asking me questions about what the heck is going on every five minutes when we're watching GotG3 and I wouldn't have had to tell her that people disappeared, but came back, and the timeline got borked, etc.

I had written my comment under the assumption that you hadn't bothered to keep up with MCU after Endgame.
