What is so ironic about what you just said is THAT was the entire driving force of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. No Fantastic 4, no Spider-Man, and no X-Men. Kevin Feige and his team took B-List characters that only comic book readers, which like it or not are a very small population, and made a $14 billion franchise off the likes of Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Black Widow, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Black Panther. Give credit where credit is due.

And I don't see the issue of being fans of only the films. If they're being obnoxious about it then, yeah it's annoying but why does it matter if they didn't know the history of X character before going to see the film?

There is absolutely no issue at all of being fans of only the films. I talk these films up around whoever I come into contact with, and I keep my Marvel Encyclopedia in my truck so those that want to talk sweaty can watch the films and get some back knowledge from me on where these characters came from.

I cannot figure out for the life of me why people continue to call MCU fans out. There's one person on this forum and there is another that I see quite a bit on another site and some YouTube comments with the same name. I just don't understand it.
