    It totally missed the mark even if it was sarcastic. I don’t think a “/s” in the end would’ve saved that.

    Calling yourself a fanboy is perfectly reasonable even if you haven’t seen every episode or movie out there. They like it, they can call themselves a fan.

    Furthermore, not everyone can afford a Disney+ subscription to watch the full Marvel lore or can’t afford the time to catch up. That doesn’t restrict them from being a fanboy.

      We’ll agree to disagree. This just came across as someone calling themselves a Tolkien fanboy when the only content they’d consumed was Rings of Power, or a Star Wars fanboy because they once saw the Holiday Special.

      She-Hulk is objectively the worst thing Marvel have ever put out, and was actively insulting to fans.

      Also, they clearly do have a Disney+ subscription if they watched it. Nobody would pirate that.
