Why is Hollywood building so many cinematic universes? | Den of Geek
Great opinion piece on cinematic universes, specifically how Marvel Studios has done well and the reasons why other studios/franchises are copying the concept.

Marvel One Shots (All embedded on one page with links!)
If you're familiar with the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), you might know that there are also five short films, called Marvel One-Shots, that were released with the DVD release of a number of films. If you've seen all of the MCU movies and watch the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." TV show, you should know that these one-shots are also considered part of the MCU.
I know some MCU fans that have yet to see all of these short films. I suspect some of this is because these were released with the DVD of the Blu-Ray for their corresponding films but are not on the DVD that you would get from Netflix (nor are they available to stream on Netflix).
Since it was announced that, like "Captain America: The Winter Soldier", the "Guardians of the Galaxy" DVD release on December 9th will not have a one-shot, I decided to post the five one-shots so far below, with a little description for each one. The title is also a link to the site where the embedded video is located.
Please note that some of these were uploaded by users in other countries so a couple of the videos have subtitles.
ENJOY!!!
The Consultant - Released on September 13, 2011 as part of the "Thor" DVD release:

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer - Released on October 25, 2011 as part of the "Captain America: The First Avenger" DVD release, it displays the full badassery of Agent Phil Coulson.
Item 47 - Released on September 25, 2012 as part of "The Avengers" DVD release. Incidentally, I read somewhere that this one-shot was the reason Marvel decided to go ahead with producing an "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." TV show.
Agent Carter - Released September 3, 2013 with the "Iron Man 3" digital release. This is my favorite of the one-shots and is also the reason Hayley Atwell is getting her own eight episode "Agent Carter" TV series in January 2015 that will air during the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." time block on ABC.
