Marvel Cinematic Universe / 漫威宇宙
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is the modern superhero-franchise reference in EP269 从“漫威宇宙”到《奥德赛》:为何总要翻拍英雄史诗?. The episode uses it less as a film-history subject than as a familiar entry point for how Norse Mythology / 北欧神话 reaches mass culture through Thor, Loki, Odin, and apocalyptic battle imagery.
The source’s caution is that Marvel recognition can hide how much the old material has changed. Kinship, heroic tone, cosmology, and Ragnarok are modernized into a superhero world, making the MCU a practical example of Epic Modern Afterlife and of the risk named by Homeric Adaptation Modernization in the Homeric branch.
