After Wandavision didn't exactly stick the landing (IMO), seeing the mild first impressions for this isn't a great sign. The "first impressions" embargo lifted today. For anyone who doesn't know, these contain usually the most hyperbolic positive takes known to man even if the movie is a dumpster fire. Also, getting a nice helping of this:

Oh boy.
After the supernatural world of WandaVision, the cloak and dagger stuff is definitely going to hit a lower gear to start. I still maintain Captain America: The Winter Soldier is as good as any movie in the MCU (including Infinity War and Endgame), so I'm ready to give it some room to prove itself. |

Just saying I like the intrigue side as much as the cosmic side. I just really hope they don't turn it into something it was never meant to be. |

Take my opinion obviously with a grain of salt. I am a grump who wants to see new IPs and ideas explored if they cannot continue to improve on a formula (especially one that has been milked to the extent that the MCU is now being milked for).

It's pretty crazy watching as a trilogy or duology or in the order of the Avengers films because it's clearly evident that the Russo's were head and shoulders above the films done by Joss Whedon in particular, although Thor 1 & 2 are pretty weak as well. That said, as of today, Thor 3 is my favorite MCU film. Taika just kills it with the humor and action for me. |

Edit: Now I'm sad because of how much better Terrance Howard would have been than Don Cheadle (no offense to Mr. Cheadle, he's just one of the few subpar castings in the bunch). |

Had he just kept his mouth shut, he would have appeared in nearly a dozen MCU movies and had his own upcoming Disney+ series. |

Ed Norton was the other dope that messed up his MCU career. He wanted "creative input" on his Hulk appearances in the MCU so they fired him and went with Ruffalo instead. As much as I initially liked Norton's performance, Ruffalo is the better Hulk in my opinion because he has so much range. |

Nothing wrong with it. But he won’t ever be in a blockbuster. Unless he has creative content tell front to back. I respect it, but if I’m being honest, others do it better. |
