Business politics.
The TV and film divisions simply cannot work together.
The stuff from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. only directly impacts Age of Ultron in the show itself.Sorry, I'm not buying this.
We can have Jackson in AoS and have events of AoS directly impact AoU but we can't get the defenders giving on the ground support in another Avengers level battle?
just nonsense.
So basically Fiege and Loeb being dicks to each other as usual
Feige and Loeb don't get along so that's the big issue but it started even before them
Hilarious that the higher,higher ups at Disney can't knock a few heads together and get this shit in order.
These shows started out with so much promise. A connected TV and film universe. We don't even need the Avengers to show up just to know that they're out there and people actually talk about in better terms that the Green Guy, hammer guy and the flag waver
The accumulated filth of all their films and television series will foam up about their waists and all the fanboys and critics will look up and shout "It's all connected!"
...and I'll look down and whisper "No."
That always annoys me. I get it here and there, but by the time we get to Iron Fist, people shouldn't be referring to Hulk as "that incredible green guy". The Avengers are basically fucking celebrities, why don't they use their names???
Is that an actual quote? I haven't watched it yet.

Whedon was insistent on continuity etc. wasn't actually that important. What happened in non Avengers movies etc. didn't matter because " you don't want people to be out of the loop if they skip half the mcu"
No mention of Inhumans in the movies, especially when it's in the media and all over the place is weird. Iron Fist spoiler-ishIt's my main problem with the early episodes of Iron Fist where you literally have aliens invading, but people have a hard time believing he was in a different dimension
I agree with that. While I do want to see The Defenders show up in A3, I also don't want the TV and movie sides to become so connected that certain things start depending on you having seen an episode(s) to understand.
#MakeItConnectedButNotTooConnected
Yep. Verbatim, give or take a word or two.
No real shock, isnt agents of shield just based off the blu-ray extra where the 2 people rob a bank with the alien gun. everything is just thrown together randomly
People listening to Antony "make daddy a sandwich " Mackie?
Oh that I agree with. The Movies should be the narrative driver. The shows supplement with expanded universe but nothing that is mandatory to enjoy the experience.
Whedon however had the view that even the other movies should not matter. Avengers movies were to be their own universe so character development in other movies etc. really didn't matter as that relied on people seeing the other movies.

This is not remotely true. He never said anything of the sort.
The closest I can think is a comment he made that was taken out of context where he was trying to explain that, to the casual movie-goer, the Coulson is still dead. So having him just show up in AoU would require them to explain why he's alive and that simply wouldn't work for the film.
He absolutely does not view the "other movies" as a separate universe at all.
The world needs a Daredevil/Spider-Man crossover.
Agent Sitwell too..But Samuel L Jackson, Jaimie Alexander and Colbie Smulders have all been in Agents of Shield?
The fact that Ross doesn't bring up the whole Inhumans are everywhere thing was really jarring.I would of been happy with even a small reference like if Ross said something like you guys even inspired or increased vigilantes and others claiming to be super heroes or something like that in Civil War.
What's the point of even having them set in the "same universe" then, wtf? So now Kingpin will never be in Spiderman's movie? Or no Daredevi/SM cross over?
Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin was incredible, and if I could pick one TV character to crossover it'd be him.
Once again, this is pure nonsense.He's absolutely right. Keep them separate, they're much too different on a tonal level to ever work.
I love most of the MCU, but those films are sugar coated as hell. It wouldn't click with the more brutal tone of DD and JJ.
The reverse is also true. I grind my teeth whenever someone on the Netflix shows mentions "THE BIG GREEN DUDE?" or "DUDE WITH THE HAMMER?" because it's so jarring. It doesn't work.
Kingpin bursts open a man's head with a car door. That's something you're never going to see in the films.

Comics with different tones cross over ALL THE TIME.
People talk as if Kingpin won't work in the movies unless he's popping someone's head like a grapefruit.
MCU movies have things like Bucky punching Howard Stark's face in, Cross turning a man to goop and flushing him down the toilet, Winter Soldier throwing Sitwell into the path of a truck, the hand-to-hand combat in WS and CW is plenty brutal and hard-hitting.
All the Netflix characters will work just fine in PG13.
