Why only make series, when you can make siries out of movies? right? I get it, there are fans who still follow and watch the movies and series, but for normal people, like me, wont watch all this.
They expect to make money, like they did with the big ones, but IMO it has gone far away from that, the only ones interested are the ones who like this content. In the end, its more like a machine making, where they have to make more movies and more.

The series would have been fine had they not been needed to understanding what is happening in the movies.

Cue me wondering where I'd missed that Elizabeth Olsen is a villain again in Dr Strange 2.

I can deal with watching a movie every few months on the off chance that some of them are entertaining popcorn guff, but I'm not sitting through endless shows where you see 10 hours of characters you don't care about and their extended families you also won't care about.

Don’t worry, I watched wandavision and still have no idea why the hell she was like that in MoM. It was extremely clear the writers of WV and MoM never once talked to each other, despite one being a somewhat continuation of the other.

MoM left such a bad taste in my mouth after being the only Phase 5(?) movie I was even remotely interested in that I haven’t bothered going to the theaters for anything marvel since.
