Marvel Fans Are Blaming Thanos For 'Luke Cage' And 'Iron Fist' Cancellations
Marvel fans were still processing the cancellation of Iron Fist when Netflix and Marvel announced [...]
It's All Connected After All
One of the original statements of the Marvel movie and TV universes teased it was all connected, and while that's been called into question at times, it seems it very well could be true if Thanos' snap eliminated half of Marvel's Netflix shows.
We just lost half the original Netflix Marvel lineup, so I guess it’s all connected after all... ? pic.twitter.com/5B905sWkTH

Other fans have different theories, like possibly that Netflix might have hired a certain mad titan to run their programming.

It seems that snap isn't just hurting the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy, as it is having quite the toll on the Defenders as well.

prevnextPurple Brutality
Thanos has racked up quite the death toll, taking out Luke Cage and Iron Fist in a matter of a week, at least according to this theory. You could definitely say that's brutal. At least we have more Jessica Jones to look forward too...right?
Damn! Thanos's snap was brutal!https://t.co/Njy0I76UXE

prevnextHope They Remember You
It looks like Thanos' handiwork is showing up once again, but at least fans will remember the shows, as the previous seasons are on Netflix for the foreseeable future.

prevnextA Marketing Tactic
Others seem to think this is part of a grand plan between Netflix and Marvel to coincide with Avengers 4, as they will revive the shows after the end of that movie. If it is that, that's pretty epic.
#LukeCage and #IronFist have been cancelled. Why are people surprised? Thanos snapped his fingers and half the marvel characters died. These shows will be revived next year after #Avengers4 . Great marketing tactic @netflix #Marvel

This one hits home a little bit, as like the heroes at the end of Infinity War Luke Cage starts to fade out of existence.

prevnextBehind The Scenes
After Luke Cage posted an image of Mike Colter with the words Always Forward, some fans were focused on the man behind the cancellation, and that's none other than Thanos.

prevnextNetflix Is Confused
Other fans seem to think that the cancellations are occurring because Netflix has taken on the identity of Thanos, and is confused that Infinity War isn't real life.
I don’t think @Netflix realizes #InfinityWar is a work of fiction, because they seem to be pulling a Thanos now that they’ve axed @LukeCage and @MarvelIronFist. Disappointing to say the least. pic.twitter.com/dSjd08RD1v

If Thanos could take down heroes like Luke Cage and Iron Fist, the other remaining heroes should be scared, very scared.
