Tbh I'm not caring so much about the movies, I catch them at some point or other, but I've been enjoying a lot of the series. Just finished Ahsoka, I enjoyed the Mando stuff and Andor was fun too. Just watched the first episode of season 2 of Loki as well and it's got me hooked again already.

I think it's just the stories they're trying to tell are too big to squeeze into a movie, 3 hours is already at the limit of what I'd watch for a movie but it's too short to tell the story without feeling like it's a ton of action sequences slammed together and the overall MCU doesn't really feel like it's building to anything in particular on the movie side. Maybe a smaller number of core movies with a more focussed narrative and faster release cadence would help.
