no, what you read was there was a pause in production, and the cast had been sent home from eastern europe, at the time the reporting was it was due to "location issues", but it seems now that the studio and the show runner had major budget issues, and it looks like the studio won the fight, but it's most likely going to cost the series in vision and quality, which is paramount for this particular project.
ruh roh, this does NOT bode well for one of my favorite scifi shows on tv, whenever an originator leaves or changes direct control, the production suffers. every time.
I got the feeling media has been saying “people are over superhero movies” for quite a while. Eventually it had to “come true” as Marvel has turned down the stakes and mostly focused on some cheap (relatively speaking) tvseries that probably nobody but comicbook fans watched, and some movies that are connected to these, with less known heroes.
They’ll be back again for Deadpool, Fantastic Four, and Blade, and the “over superheroes” trend will be forgotten. Again.
I don't want to polarize or argue. My basic conclusion, having watched the quality of the storytelling decline AND the moviegoing populace check out is: People are over the MCU. Whether it's the Sony-based characters that are also tangentially connected to the MCU or otherwise.
Yeah, it's definitely clear that you don't enjoy the MCU. I don't think anyone has an issue with you feeling that way. What I don't like to see is when content is misrepresented in titles when posted, it degrades the quality of the platform as a whole and encourages reactions which aren't based on the actual content.

As the guy who posts content 2-4 times a day because others don't, I would absolutely welcome this level of passion to posting new, appropriate, original content as opposed to complaining because the posted content doesn't meet your standard of quality.
Cool, always glad to see another user who makes an effort to submit content - I'm glad you're doing the same. I took issue with your title for this post, and I think I expressed that adequately here. Take care.
@inkican The MCU has nothing to do with whatever crap Sony is throwing at the wall with their Spider-Man license, apart from Tom Holland's Spider-Man movies.
Daisy Ridley is far from making the list of things the sequels did poorly. She herself would be on the list of positives. JJ on the other hand…
It’s very sad that she people can’t separate the actors from a story. The actors very rarely have anything to do with the story on screen. The only thing they control is their performance.
I hope she pulls down some big roles that leave a more positive experience for her.
I always felt bad for the whole cast, but Ridley especially. I’m not a giant fan of the sequels, but she did the best with what she was given, and in the hands of better writers/directors/execs I think it could’ve been a very different story for her and her character.
She has a lot of charisma as an actor and person, it was a shame it got wasted and then she took the brunt of the abuse from the toxic fans. A victim of the ego and greed of others.
