Marvel Cinematic Universe

The strategy of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) has been, from the beginning, to dedicate individual films to its main superheroes, bring them all together in one big event, and then separate them again into new films that deal with the consequences of that. The MNTU (Marvel Netflix Television Universe) is governed by similar rules. Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist introduced the superheroes of Hell's Kitchen, their problems and their particular traumas, and everything that lives in their series is transferred to The Defenders, the miniseries that unites them to save New York.

‘The Dark Knight’ Trilogy

is a set of three Christopher Nolan Batman movies. After covering the origins of the superhero marked by doubt and loss in Batman Begins (Batman Begins, 2005) and offering a conclusion focused on the revival in The Dark Knight Rises (The Dark Knight Rises, 2012), The Knight Dark continues with a dark line. Nolan emphasizes emotionality, psychological depth, and humanism. Amazon | Trailer
