Well, and unfortunately... with the Thor corner in particular; that's been going on for literal years.
Over five, in fact.
The thing is, Waititi set a standard of not giving a rats ass as far back as the making of Gagnarok aka Thor: Ragnarok: and promised to keep on in that same flavor after the studios and gen fans patted him on the back for it repeatedly. (yes, that's a link to a more collected list of examples straight out of his own mouth)
It massively helped that, instead of replacing problematic people on the MCC around the time Gangnarok was being put together (the MCC's entire purpose having been someone being responsible for upholding exactly that kind of continuity from one film/series to the next) was disbanded instead: allowing asshats of similar disposition like Herron and Waldron to enter the franchise; and spread it to the rest of the MCU (don't get me started on the Dr. Strange sequel Waldron also wrote that forgets every scene of and premise of the movie it was supposed to be a sequel to just as a start).
The studios, also took that as a green light for that kind of behavior and treatment; which has been getting progressively worse since.
Add in the audience/customer blaming, the ism accusations aimed at anyone who surprise of surprises also expected an entertainment company to actually prioritize good entertainment rather than politic pushing every production to capitalize on social trends; among other things.. and well. Yeah. Of course Disney as a whole is down the shitter, and taking the MCU with it since they took greater control back then.
Just sayin'.

one of marvel’s biggest issues is that writers/directors are just constantly writing ooc fanfic of each other’s work instead of using it as a foundation to continue a collaborative fictional universe off of. like. character development should matter. a character shouldn’t have a different personality in every single appearance. major plot points established by other installments shouldn’t be ignored. idk man.
