Who is actually going to all of these Marvel movies? I thought everyone came to the same conclusion that Marvel started sucking noticeably immediately after Endgame.

Yeah even the filler shit up to endgame was questionable, I just assumed they'd stop making them after that. Now you have a TV show to watch as homework so you can understand the movies.

Do people seriously have the time to waste to just watch superhero shit endlessly? There's only so many ways you can write the same premise.

Marvel has been writing new stories in the genre (what you're calling "the same premise") for like 6 times longer than the MCU has been around. And they have more story arcs to deal with than the simplified MCU stuff.

Sure it's not all great, but I don't think there's any shortage of possibilities within the genre.
