Marvel should make In-Universe Documentaries.
I was thinking about this the other night, like, instead of another big CGI action show what if marvel did something smaller: Fake in-universe documentaries.
Like a S.H.I.E.L.D.-produced doc about the Battle of New York, or a Wakandan cultural piece after they opened their borders. You could have interviews with regular citizens talking about what it was like living through the blip, or a “Dateline” style investigation into why people still worship the Avengers like gods. You could also do one about Wakanda opening up, or a Netflix-style true crime doc about what really happened in Sokovia.
Imagine a whole doc called “Three Years Gone” about the blip. people talking about what it was like when half the world just vanished. interviews with families who lost people, old government tapes, even random vlog clips of people trying to move on. it could show how the blip messed up economies, social stuff, jobs, relationships, even like schools and dating. The weird gap years when half the world was gone.
Stuff like that would make the MCU feel alive again. we always see the battles but never the people living in it. it would actually expand the universe in a different way, showing how big and complex it really is outside of the main heroes.
I feel like it’d be cheap to make and actually get people talking again. not everything has to be another multiverse thing.
What does everyone think about this idea? Would you watch it?
What would be a Documentary you'd want to see?

Give us a war documentary about Hammer and Stark technologies used in Wars through the fictional 20th century.
Give us a Musican BioPic about Dazzler.
Give us a True-Crime investigation about a few murders before theyre closed by Alias investigations.
Give us a *proper horror movie*. No heros, just humans trying to survive [Arcade](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcade_(Marvel_Comics)) and youve got the Saw franchise. Have two of the humans survive just like any other horror movie and youve got a canned villain you can bring forward at any time.
I want to see more stuff about how average fucking people navigate having a “normal” life in the MCU.
Only people who appreciate good cinema instead of flashy action scenes and fights will appreciate the effort
