no talk me i’m sleempy

after watching both no way home and multiverse of madness, I’ve come to be of the (controversial) opinion that the mcu should avoid multiverse plots. not because the plots themselves are bad, but because so much of the plot revolves around cameos. the actual plot takes a backseat to the temporary — and ultimately inconsequential — introduction of fan-favorite characters. cameos are fine (and a certain number of cameos are to be expected in popular series!) but you reach a point where you’ve reduced your series to nostalgic call-backs, and imo the multiverse plot lines are really accelerating the mcu’s descent into that

why did I think I could listen to abba’s Slipping Through My Fingers without crying
