[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 256961, member: 5079"] To some extent, yeah. I'm pretty indifferent to STAR TREK so I have no opinions there, but STAR WARS has been made over the span of decades, in different generations. Even setting aside the (now) quaint F/X of the earlier films, there's surprisingly little cohesion among the films. For all of George Lucas' claims of having it planned all along, the franchise feels rather slapdash. The MCU is something that had never been tried before -- a shared universe with a master plan -- and pulled it off. There are continuity quibbles, but it works remarkably well as a whole. I highly recommend pausing SHIELD and switching to WANDAVISION. For one, the show is a magnitude better than SHIELD; it's brilliant and that's not a word I use easily. It's also a show of surprises and the longer you wait to watch it, the greater the risk of those surprises being spoiled. [/QUOTE]
