First trailer dropped
It looks interesting. I'm kind of curious to see how well this will do as a continuation of "Falcon & The Winter Soldier"

looks fun... more spy movie than superhero perhaps? I'm definitely down to see if they continue with the post-Snap world. Even if they don't should still be pretty good.

This has “Winter Soldier” vibes, which is a good thing, as that is probably one of the top three MCU films (and my personal favorite). If this and Thunderbolts* are more grounded, they along with Daredevil may be just the thing to bring mainstream interest back instead of the to-date poorly done Multiverse stuff.

Same here, but I place The Winter Soldier at the top of the MCU list. The Brave New World trailer looks like everything the MCU has not managed to re-capture (with few exceptions) since the franchise became obsessed with Thanos, and adapting D or Z-list characters audiences did not want to see. |

If anything, it gives these characters more time in the spotlight and more opportunities for them to get another run or maybe even their first run all together!  Hell, I'm still surprised that Cloak & Dagger got their own tv series, even if it wasn't that great from what I've heard |

..and see you, being enough of a comic book fan to hang out at a old school forum about comics, didn't bother to watch it, so who's the audience for that?
I agree that was a problem. I DO think Iron Man and Captain America are generally known but the non-comic reading public... definitely much more so than Moon Knight or Hawkeye. Those were the correct characters to run with. If they wanted to do all these minor characters that can't even carry a comic book series, they needed to make people like them first in the movie. They did they pretty well with Hawkeye, but not with any of the others.
I think the mild success of the Netflix shows (when people really just still wanted to see what connection there was and didn't really care about anything else) gave the false sense that anything superhero would work.

I watched some of the first episode out of pure curiosity because I enjoyed the book. It was on Disney's Freeform network and was more skewed towards teens with a romance element. And I don't mind that in shows, but in Cloak & Dagger it was more on the nose |
