    I’ve never even heard of the marvels until this year and madame web never at all. I’m never super excited about comic based movies, but ones I’ve never heard of even less. Plus I always feel like I would have to know a whole bunch of backstory from comics or past movies to know what is going on.

      They were going to do a sequel to Captain Marvel and then decided to shoe-horn in two Captain Marvel adjacent characters from the Disney+ shows WandaVision and Ms. Marvel and call it “Marvels”.

      It probably would have been better if they had just done Captain Marvel as space Superman on her own.

      You really don’t. Most are designed to be watched without the full context of other films behind them or it you need context they will fill you in.

      If course if you’ve seen everything then it is beneficial.

      Although, oddly enough, Deadpool REALLY is made for those that grew up with the Fox Marvel films.
