I think that plays a part. At some point in the near future you’ll have too much content from Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and Disney animation that will have to overlap. So if Mandalorian Season 3 is running the same time as Moon Knight, at least it will be different days of the week.

Marvel has so much content the next 2 years they could probably drop an episode/movie nearly every week.

2021 Theaters: Black Widow, Shang-Chi, Eternals, Spider-Man 3
2021 D+: Loki, What If, Ms. Marvel, Hawkeye

2022 Theaters: Doctor Strange 2, Thor 4, Black Panther 2, Captain Marvel 2, and Disney has yet to give up their October 7th date that was originally meant for Blade.
2022 D+: She-Hulk, Moon Knight, Secret Invasion, Ironheart, Armor Wars, Guardians Holiday Special

2023 Theaters: Ant-Man 3, Guardians 3, Fantastic 4, Blade, and MAYBE Deadpool.
2023 D+: I Am Groot

So Loki is probably a good show to test the mid-week waters. I wonder if What If follows suit in August.
The October 7 date is Into the Spider-verse 2.

Other D+ series announced with no date: Wakanda, Echo, and probably a Loki 2.

Other theatrical releases: Morbius and Venom 2 (if one counts the Sonyverse), maybe a Sam Wilson Captain America film, and eventually an X-Men slate of films, and maybe an Eternals 2 if it does well, and maybe a New Avengers or Young Avengers, etc... We know Feige has a plan that spans years and years.

And honorable mention: MODOK now on Hulu; and Hit Monkey to follow suit.

October 7th date is Spider-Verse 2 but that's a Sony date. Disney would never hold a date for another studio. Morbius, Venom, and even Spider-Man solo films will never be dates held by Disney. They've updated their release schedule many times, and have yet to to remove it even after Spider-Verse 2 moved to that date. It made sense if it was going to be Blade/Deadpool as they're geared more towards an older audience.

Captain America 4 is happening per the trades: https://deadline.com/2021/04/captai...ldier-ep-malcolm-spellman-writing-1234742675/ and if Disney continues to hold that date, only Deadpool and Captain America 4 are even in the realm of possibilities. Both are actively working on the script.

I understand not everyone is a box office nerd so I shall explain a few things so you know I'm just not making it up. Disney holds dates years in advance. They most recently updated their schedule in March: https://www.piratesandprincesses.net/walt-disney-company-issues-updated-film-release-schedule/

So as of March we knew the 2022-2023 Marvel movies were:

3/25/22 - Doctor Strange 2
5/6/22 - Thor 4
7/8/22 - Black Panther 2
10/7/22 - Untitled Marvel (Spider-Verse moved to this spot in April 2020)
11/11/22 - Captain Marvel 2
2/17/23 - Untitled Marvel
5/5/23 - Untitled Marvel
7/28/23 - Untitled Marvel
11/3/23 - Untitled Marvel

And in December 2020 Disney held Investors Day where they released this PDF: https://lumiere-a.akamaihd.net/v1/documents/twdc_investor_day_programming_fact_sheet_ecbccd9a.pdf (Pages 12-15)

It's noted that in the Marvel section "Following are the projects included, listed in chronological order" thus we know the intended release dates of all their upcoming projects. If you line up the slate from March to what's on the PDF:

10/7/22 - Blade
11/11/22 - Captain Marvel 2
2/17/23 - Ant-Man 3
5/5/23 - Guardians Vol. 3
7/28/23 - Fantastic 4
11/3/23 - Untitled Marvel

Obviously those dates were correct for Ant-Man and Guardians. We'll see on Fantastic 4. Hollywood Reporter recently had a Blade update: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/m...a-nehisi-coates-warner-bros-movie-1234947599/
Likewise, Marvel isn’t rushing with Blade, whose start date was pushed from this September to July 2022, so that the studio can spend time working on the Stacy Osei-Kuffour-penned script.
With production delayed almost a year, it's impossible Blade will be the October movie. I understand if this post is way too intense for most people. I'm a nerd when it comes to the movie slate.

Gonna try not to read reviews and definitely trying to avoid spoilers.
Yeah, a lot of the great gags in Thor Ragnorak were ruined by too many previews and trailers. I tend to go into radio silence after a show's first trailer. All the following ones are just spoilers.

Also, for "genre titles" like Loki, YouTube is aflush with hundreds of speculation videos. Between Rey's parents and Mephisto, I completely avoid them.
