Alright, I'll say it, this is hypocritical

Alright, so a lot of people got up and arms about the new Captain America film because you needed to do "homework" to understand what's going on in the movie, and while I mostly agreed with that stance, at the same time, it's a very stupid one considering, y'know, things actually happening in the universe and not all of it being able to be adapted into a movie. However, all of the sudden, the new Daredevil show comes out, and people are absolutely fine watching the entire Daredevil show over, including other shows and stuff? What happened to the homework argument, which is still a bad argument by itself?
