Do I ABSOLUTELY need to see Quantumania in order to understand Loki Season 2? - eviltoast

Since I learnt that Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania might be essential prior viewing for Loki Season 2, despite that film getting bad reviews, I planned to watch it but put it off. Now Loki Season 2 is out but I still haven’t seen Quantumania.

Is it impermissible to just skip the movie? I also only watched half of Multiverse of Madness. Does it matter? I just want to see Loki

    I can’t say specifically for these shows, but I’d say you’re probably fine to watch your show

    I don’t keep up with the MCU, but I was able to watch Multiverse of Madness without watching Wandavision or whatever else is required viewing and everything still made sense.

    There’s probably going to be inside jokes or references that you’ll miss out on, but unless it’s very badly written then you shouldn’t be lost watching it

        Were they actually disallowed from watching it or are you just joking that it seems like the writers had no understanding of it?

        I only ask because apparently the actors in The Last of Us TV series weren’t allowed to play the game beforehand, seems like a questionable ‘creative process’

          They wrote the movie before WandaVision released and weren’t given access to watch it early for Doctor Strange 2. I guess they were given just enough details to figure something out.
