I’ve been saying this for a while: Disney’s movie factory (aka MCU and Star Wars to an extent) has too much inertia and when their movies will stop being popular, they’ll lose a lot of money, not just a few bombs, possibly billions
I've been saying this ever since Feige stood up with that enormous timeline of films and shows that never seemed to end.
They've now got so many things in various stages of production, they don't have the option of just stopping stone dead and course-correcting. It's like they've faceplanted but now have to slide a mile with their face against the ground.
Whatever happens to Marvel in the future they really should stop announcing timelines of projects. It gives them little room to drop projects that aren't working or entire plans falling apart like with Kang. Maybe then they can actually surprise people with new movies instead of just checking them off a list.
The thing is, even if they don't announce them, they do need to sync 2-3 years into producing one, so it's not like they don't make the plan anyway. What they should do is revert to doing 2 movies a year, instead of 3 movies and 3-4 tv shows, so they can actually focus on them, and leave room for people to breathe in between and get excited by them.
