So Spidey gets hit by a bus and dies in the MCU?

It sucks that the deal between Sony and Marvel is starting to go sour, but as far as I'm aware, the reports are premature right now, and it's possible a deal may fall back into place somewhere. If it doesn't, well, it sucks, but it shouldn't harm the MCU. If anything, this means the last two Spidey solo films with Holland and Jon Watts won't have any crossover characters from the MCU.
Personally, I see a clever loophole Marvel and Disney could use to ensure Spidey stays in the MCU. See, the deal was originally for the film rights. However, Disney's acquisition of Marvel gave them both the general character rights and TV rights to Spider-Man, which Disney utilized with their own brand of Spider-man TV shows (argue all you want about the quality of said shows though). Anyway, since I'm pretty sure making a series on a streaming service technically counts as "TV", Disney could theoretically get away with a Spider-man TV series on Disney+. Personally, I found that Spider-man adventures work better on the small screen anyway.
If that's not possible, than Marvel could also publish a new Spider-Man comic series that ties directly to the MCU, making it a great jumping point for Marvel to properly bring comic stories to the MCU (not just the preludes they've done for Homecoming, Infinity War, and Endgame).

Fridge moment: Where was EDITH during the final Endgame battle? If I had to guess, most likely uploaded to Pepper's Iron Man suit to help her use it as effectively as possible, given that she presumably didn't have anywhere near Tony's or Warmachine's experience fighting in it.

A lot of people have issues with Thor's depression and PTSD in Endgame, but you only have to look at that scene from Infinity War with Rocket to see how he was barely holding it together as it was.
Over the course of about three days, Thor lost an eye, his signature weapon, his remaining family, his home and half of his people... and then he failed to avenge them by failing to kill Thanos before he could wipe out half the life in the universe.
Thor has an incredible (albeit tragic) character arc over the course of Ragnarok, Infinity War and Endgame.
I think most people were put off with how in Endgame, Thor suddenly turned fat and a lot of his jokes were that of a lazy drunkard. But I was actually fine with it. I mean, with everything Thor went through, I would say getting drunk and letting yourself go for 5 years is an appropriate reaction. Exactly. It made him well human/relatable instead of a God. If you can go through all that and still be yourself, I would find that hard to believe.

If you can go through all that and still be yourself, I would find that hard to believe. Entirely true. To be honest, I have less a problem with him going through a period of depression than I do him doing so while every other important character goes out in style. Black Widow fights like a beast for years to keep things together with almost no support and then sacrifices her life to reverse the process of the Snap. Tony proves his genius and selflessness beyond any doubt by, as a mere mortal, designing his own Infinity Gauntlet and killing himself with the stones to save everyone else, despite at long last having learned to settle down and live like an actual person instead of a narcissistic messiah. Steve Rogers sneaks back to the era he belongs to and lives a full and fulfilling life, finally satisfied that he has indeed fought the good fight and given everything he had to protect the world from evil, the way he always wanted and needed to. Banner sacrifices his arm and a good bit of the Hulk's strength which he had spent years trying to come to terms with, simultaneously and unambiguously fixing trillions of lives without any violence or rage in his heart, and is set to continue helping the world with his intelligence and kindness exactly the way he was trying to before the Hulk stole his life. Hawkeye gets his family back, and will have their support while trying to put the bloodiest and most miserable period of his life to rest. Nebula proves herself to herself once and for all, leading and guiding the world's greatest heroes to victory and doing more than her sister ever could to protect the innocent, at the same time earning that sister's undying gratitude and respect rather than pity. ...And Thor drinks himself fat and stupid and weak, avoiding any and all of his responsibilities and leaving everybody around him to pick up the slack, before running off to space with a bunch of assholes who like him. That isn't just Thor having a bad day because Thor is having a bad day. It's Thor the big man-child being his absolutely worst self at exactly the time his people desperately needed him to step up, and showing no sign of being interested in pulling himself out of it. No amount of shame or grief justifies dealing like that, and it sticks out like a sore thumb among people with hard lives being champs about it. The only other character who takes it similarly badly is Hawkeye, and even his methods of dealing could at least be thought of as constructive and trying to do the right thing instead of wallowing in self-pity.

My understanding is they plan to keep making Spider-Man movies, just without the MCU elements. SO I guess he's gonna get over Tony's death real quick and the Avengers will never be mentioned again

Truly a great set of announcements for me. She-Hulk, Moon Knight and Ms. Marvel are my top three Marvel characters that haven't been in any shows or movies yet. (If we're counting the Fox X-Men series, anyway.)

And I’m super stoked for her to finally get the visual media representation she deserves!

As a huge Kamala Khan fan, I’m super glad a Ms. Marvel series will be coming to Disney+! But of course, being a super fan who has read almost all her comics and seen other representations of her in various TV shows and video games, I’m of course going to be watching everything they do to Kamala with extreme scrutiny. Not that I don’t mind changing things up for a different medium or audience, but it has to be changed that still respect the source material.
So far, the title screen’s on the right track, cleverly using Kamala’s Lightning bolt for the S, and the Captain Marvel logo used for the period to indicate Kamala’s fan connection to Carol Danvers (if that’s the direction they’re going).
Of course, the series will need to figure out how to properly work in the lightning bolt to the costume, since in the comic, the bolt was inspired by Carol Danvers old costume (which she briefly transformed to after gaining her powers). Since that costume doesn’t exist in the MCU, where does the bolt come from this time?
Here are some other things I really want the show creators to be careful for:
1. Get the Pakistani heritage right and the religion correct. Don’t pretend that Pakistan’s the same as it was portrayed in Homeland. 2. Please keep Kamala’s powers weird and her villains equally weird. I would kill to see a live-action representation of the Inventor! 3. Kamala has to be a hero for the people, which also means get New Jersey right! 4. Build Kamala up as a leader, not a sidekick. 5. Please don’t rush and give Kamala the new Kree nano-suit in the first season. Marvel TV has a tendency to rush and include episodes based on the latest runs in comics, and audiences just won’t be ready for Kamala to go on a galactic adventure for a new suit in the first season.

I'm really excited for She-Hulk. She's one of the first Marvel heroes I was introduced to and someone I've been dying to see either in movie or show. So hurray! As for Ms Marvel and Moon Knight, I'm familiar with them enough to be excited to see their tv shows as well.
...Tbqh, these three are way more interesting that the first revealed Disney+ Marvel shows' batch.

Yay! She-Hulk! (don't know why they didn't do a She-Hulk movie instead of a movie about Captain Bitchface, sorry, I mean Captain Marvel). Ms Marvel I don't know about. And Moon Knight is going to be hard to do a family friendly movie for. Kinda like doing a family friendly movie for Blade...

Maybe the show is about Falcon making good use of the shield and Cap's legacy, but ultimately finding it appropriate to pass it to Bucky, who takes it on himself to become Captain America with more gusto.
Also is it 2 more movies with Spiderman? That's enough to get him through college and some young adulthood and he can have stories there, sidestep the biggest films in the meantime, etc. If need be. At least one of the films can have the scale of something like Civil War, maybe.
