To compare it to Game of Thrones. It reminds me of how so many Game of Thrones characters were saying Dany was evil to remind the audience without Dany actually doing anything to earn that title (seriously, Arya? You’re mad that Dany executed enemies of war after you massacred the Freys and fed Walder’s sons to him?) Writing grey, nuanced characters is tough, and so far the writers to TFATWS are falling short of the mark (if that’s what their endgame is here). |
It's also quite evident she was cast based upon her character in Solo.
There the writers actually did a good job with that character, seeing as how she wasn't a ****ing mass murderer. There's also a key distinction here where we don't actually see "the bad guys" doing anything bad - it's just alluded to. So we don't ever really develop a hate for the bad guy. Then the instant we do see something bad happen at their hands - the murder of Walker's buddy - it is used to tear down one of "the good guys." I think the loan approval guy at the bank is a bigger villain in this show than Karly and her Flag Smashers. |

The Heart Shaped Herb and Abomination's(Blonsky) DNA, should've been the McGuffins for Hydra/The Ten Rings to steal and retrieve to engineer their own Super Soldier serum and perfect it . You'd have Sam and Bucky trying to obtain it with John Walker being James Bond/Jack Bauer of the story in plain clothes and not dressed up for propaganda. The U.S. Agent Walker is attempting to obtain both the DNA and the HSB for the United States by ruthless means if necessary to complete a successful mission. John Walker isn't a douche but is a representative of what a hero needs to do to survive and overcome the odds, and not era driven ideals like Superman or Cap The Heart Shaped Herb would've been the key if you wanted to bring the Wakandans into the fold |
This boat montage is super indulgent.

Very "meh" finale. It would probably register a little better in my mind had WandaVision not come out first. WandaVision was better by leaps and bounds. Maybe it will improve after I watch some of the nerds easter egg videos on youtube later today, but just very "meh."

I rather hope they give Zemo his own show at some point. By far the best thing about the B&S show.

Meh is a word, but the word I had in my head [along with the image] was Patrice O'Neal calling someone or something a 'big nuthin' in a roast.

OH WOW GUYS
DID YOU SEE HOW THE WHITE WOMAN WAS THE REAL BAD GUY ALL ALONG SHE WAS JUST USING THEM PO BLACK CHILLUNS THAT'S WHY THEY PLAYED THE SAD MUSIC WHEN THEY WHEELED THE MASS MURDERER AWAY LMAO Stupid ****ing show. AND WHERE WAS THE BOAT AT THE END? WE WERE SUPPOSED TO SEE THE ****ING BOAT. |
And with that finale, I think there’s a fair argument that it was the worst thing the MCU has ever done. They really did not need to devote an entire series to making Sam Captain America (which was already the implication at the end of Endgame), especially if that series was going to be as uninteresting as this.
Loki will surely be better. |
Terrible series.
|
Meh. It is what it is. A comic book based TV show. 10-15 years ago this would have been the best comic book TV show ever made. Definitely had some sloppy plot lines and basic timing issues, but I enjoyed the last 2 episodes.
