Both are equally viable. Do you want Indiana Jones movies where there is nothing supernatural at all and he's just some guy stealing stuff?
That works OK for the Uncharted franchise. I haven't read the novel or comic yet, or played the mobile game, but none of the the Playstation games have had anything that was really supernatural. They've had stuff that looked supernatural, but it always ended up having a logical explanation in the end. Before someone jumps on them for being video games, they are some of the best written, most story driven games out there.

Civil War had a pretty crazy moment as well towards the end, that surprised me, in a way.
The reveal that the Winter Soldier was responsible for the Starks' death. Not only was it intense, but there was an overall cold feeling to it that contributed to the sudden horror portrayed. That's some pretty dark stuff right there.
Of course, it moves on from there in a rather strange way but that definitely a dark plot thread.

The reveal to Tony, that is.

It had already been revealed to the audience earlier. ( Some would say it was already expressed in The Winter Soldier, but I thought the sequence in question left it ambiguous. )

There's a reason why attempts to make movies out of video games fail...
 
That has nothing to do with qualtity of the games. I would put the story, characters, writing, and performances in all four of the Uncharted games right up there with some of the best big budget summer action blockbusters. They basically are interactive big budget summer action blockbusters.

Really? Shoot, I must have missed that. I'll have to rewatch it...maybe.
 
With Inhumans being such a big part of AoS and both shows being on ABC, it seems strange to me that they wouldn't at least be some kind of crossover. I can see not crossing over AoS and the Netflix shows, since they are on different networks/streaming services, and have very different tones.

That's why I think if there's ever a crossover, it would be on Netflix. AoS caters to ABC's family audience. If Daredevil popped up on AoS, kids would want to watch the Netflix show, which parents might not like. If Shield (hopefully Coulson) appeared on Luke Cage, it would only potentially shift some Netflix viewers to AoS without worry.
