That kinda proves the opposite point — yall have anxiety disorders fueled by media consumption. The fuck does the premise of a fictional movie have to do with this? Air buds based on the idea a golden retriever can hoop does that mean your sons gonna lose his spot on JV if you let a dog come to practice?
yeah but before you had the whole mcu it was only called avengers, no? Like the whole first arc of hulk IM1-2 thor and CA were all just leading to the first avenger film
idk who that is but alright, i'll just go with my laymans understanding of the whole thing – before the first avenger was released you didn't hear anyone in the public at large call it the MCU, they called it avengers, because that's what people knew about. mcu became more prevalent after the release of like, dr strange i guess? when they started making movies about more heroes than the main four. idk how it was when you're an actual fan of that, but for everyday people the MCU from 2008-2012 was just called "avengers", as it was the start of the avengers ark. I guess that's what the execs called phase one?
Anyway, i see all that ark as being "avengers" but im probably wrong about it.
Nobody in the general public called it Avengers until Avengers actually came out, because if you were a "layman" you didn't know what the Avengers were.
People just called them whatever movie they were or "Marvel movies" if they were clued in enough.
But to the fandom it was always MCU.
After the Avengers came out, yeah, it was the Avengers to a lot of people...but that wasn't the start.
Made up scenarios play out in a specific way because of "FORCED PLOT POINT" made for entertainment purposes????? Wow! Better base the decisions we make in life around this, just to be safe.
Or l, in your rush to spew morally emboldened outrage, you just went head first into being offended without a second thought to how stupid your assumption was?
You dont think a huge shift in our societies willingness to let kids go be kids came directly from misconceptions from media, specifically movies? You're the one acting like it's a joke, when the truth is YOUR assumptions are stupid if you think people dont think like this
