Nobody doubts the effect that the MCU had on the world of blockbuster films. Especially the superhero/comic book/fantasy sub-genre. What was not quite so expected was the studio’s breakthrough into TV. With the assistance of the newly launched Disney+ service, the MCU had a conduit to the home based, TV watching audience. Well, I say with the assistance of Disney+ but they had dipped a toe in the water with, to my untutored eye, lesser known characters via the Netflix service.
These were all brought under the aegis of Disney when the Netflix license expired. The MCU, being the MCU, amalgamated the later TV productions into the Phases established way back in 2008 with the first Iron Man film. They start after the Infinity War cycle and are, without too much hyperbole, the backbone of the Multiverse Cycle which we will be glued to until, according to the current timeline, until 2026. However, I’m sure Kevin Feige will be juggling with ideas that will take us well into the next decade!

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
