And the thing where the browncoats in the show were an allegory for the American Confederacy and we were supposed to feel bad they lost. Also the Fox executives were absolutely right to start with the third or fourth episode instead of the 2 hour pilot, because that's easily the worst 2 episodes of the entire show.

Firefly's biggest sin was probably at how anime it was tbh.

I don't really know any big Firefly fans other than one guy in work who's maybe 10 years older than I, but we never really chat about it. However, even as much as I enjoy Buffy and Angel myself, I find Joss Whedon fans in general to have a high incidence of insufferableness (maybe a couple of years ago, I saw a video of Whedon doing a Q&A at a convention shortly after Avengers came out, and came to the conclusion that he and his terrible fans deserve one another) and I suppose Firefly fandom tends to fall within that. As far as worst fandoms go, I try to separate out "fans who are bad people" and "people who are bad fans". Not a terribly narrow dividing line, I admit.

Also add on that most popular media set during the war rarely makes mention of those things as well.

I cannot find the animation thread, but its on TV but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gihocc_ObBA Is it me or does this look a hell of a lot like the Venture Bros? Spider-Man looks and moves a hell of a lot like Dean, even his voice sounds similar.

Normally, "looks a hell of a lot like the Venture Bros" would not be an issue for me, but I don't see myself watching this.

The minute or two of footage we've seen is pretty close to the comic; I wonder if they'll do the Cloak and Dagger story, since those two are also getting a show at nearly the same time. Also, I wonder if at the end of the arc they'll get (comics spoilers) rounded up by some established characters like Iron Man did in the comics. That's too much to hope for in a Hulu show so maybe Coulson & co? If they decide to go in that direction, of course.

The answer is likely no to all of that based on how Marvel TV has functioned since the beginning. Could they change? Possibly? But it seems unlikely at this point.

None of that's going to happen, and the Cloak and Dagger arc wouldn't make any sense if Cloak and Dagger are also teenagers like they are going to be in the new show. It only worked in the comic because Cloak and Dagger were runaway teens a long time ago.

There's more likely to be substantive crossover between C&D and New Warriors than between C&D and Runaways, simply because the former two are on the same network, and even that's hardly a foregone conclusion. AoS and the Netflix shows have only acknowledged each other via Easter eggs, and that's all you should expect, for the most part.

Well that shot wasn't reused from Daredevil so unless it's from his own show and he "got there just in time" for somebody else, I think it's a relatively safe bet that that Defenders promo was showing a clip from Defenders.

There's supposed to be a Punisher trailer debuting at SDCC so it's not unreasonable to think that an ad for Marvel's full slate of Netflix shows would include some footage from it.
