i didn't think it was possible for an MCU show to get worse with every episode, but She-Hulk somehow manages to up the cringe factor every week. ep 6, and once again, nothing of interest happens, which is a common theme for this show. Jen goes to a wedding, her friends back at the office represent a man who gets out of marriage by killing himself (he is immortal) and that is basically it
they devote a few seconds at the end of the episode to the actual plot of someone wanting She-Hulks blood

@quasar1967 Besides it being the hilarious MCU introduction of the famed Avenger Mr Immortal, leader of the Great Lakes Avengers, sure, nothing "important" happens.
Does something "important" need to happen in every episode? Did something "important" happen in every single episode of Friends, for example?
Jessica Gao is just an outright awful writer who disgraced every actor and actress in this show by ruining a wonderful Marvel character. If she believes that every man is like this, she really requires substantial help. It's really terrible. If I weren't a completist and wanted to know everything about the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I would've already abandoned this show. I will have to endure all of this, tragically.

@eddierdy I'm more concerned that even though the series also shows normal male characters, you only look at the toxic ones to shout "she thinks all men are like that".
Let's see if it's going to turn out that you identify with those types of men and the one who needs help is you.
Complaining that you're "tragically going to have to endure" watching a series is nothing to beat your chest about either.
It was kinda interesting but, The Silent Slenderman made it a bit irritating..

@computechnopro He was an old guy. The hit wasn't as mild as you think... Glass is pretty hard.
While still funny and immensely entertaining, I confess I was a little disappointed with Deadpool. With this character, they had an opportunity to make a completely ridiculous and nonsensical superhero movie, and what we got as another generic plot following the tired origin story / damsel-in-distress formula, with a bit of crude humor and 4th-wall breaking mixed in. I almost wonder if that was the cost for finally getting this movie made.

@xaliber I don't get why people see origin story and automatically think its boring. If you didn't have the origin story nobody would know why the hell he is doing the things he is doing. There would be no context for anything. It's only boring because you label it as boring before even watching it. Next time go into the film with an open mind and stop comparing it to other films.
And If you didn't like the origin story then explain why you didn't like it. Don't just say "oh its an origin story so therefore it is boring".

So you're disappointed that he breaks the 4th wall? He breaks the 4th wall in the comics all the time.
It's impossible to skip the opening, its weird but funny as hell.

@feeltheduck I watched five seasons of Game of Thrones, never once realizing that the opening sequence changed with every episode until years after I'd skipped every one of them.
I may have actually rewound this opening.
The first one sucked. Why this one exists is beyond me. Start making movies ppl want to see. Voltron, More Superman, Batman, an actual GOOD joker movie.
The dudes who give the green light to movies in Hollywood need to all be fired. They don’t know what the fuck they are doing.
Less of this shit. Again, this movie is shit.
Margot Robbie is a shit actress. Yes she is pretty. But I’m tired of watching what she calls acting. Joel kinnaman is just as bad on the male front. His over acting ass needs to be stopped.
John Cena is the worst thing to ever happen to movies. Like the rock, but with absolutely no acting ability. An ape with muscles.
at least will smith isn’t in this one

Margot Robbie's acting is pretty phenomenal, though. I don't know what planet you're living on; she inhabits her roles.
On the surface this film is about a group of people who have been labelled “villains”, working together to save the world. But really, this film is about one man and one man alone, he isn’t strong, but yet he defies all odds and sacrifices his life to save his friends. His only power is his bravery, he is the driver of the van and the main character of this film, Milton.

@kieranlittleuk We just had a conversation for like three hours about how your name is Milton!

VIP4I think if I tried pointing out all the illogical parts of this episode I'd run out of space, but let's just go with the dumbest part: Why on earth did they bother with bringing Dixon and O'Donnell on the chopper just to dump them? Obviously it was just an excuse to open the doors so Reacher could crawl in, but so far this season the writers don't seem to bother asking themselves "what is the goal of the character here"
And why was Reacher in charge of what happened with the money? A bit weird, as he's not their boss but whatever

You clearly weren't paying attention... 'The Terminator' told you why, and why they dug the bullet out of the leg... It's good to keep up.

30 minutes, of which 10 minutes look back at the previous episode and intro and credits. So 20 minutes an episode. WOW how bad. Surprised this episode still gets a 6 from viewers here.

@peterthegreat71 Why should the length of a show be affecting the rating that much? Also, the episode is exactly 23 minutes 30 seconds from the "MARVEL Studios" intro to "Georgia" outro, with a 1 minute 39 seconds show credit.
As a former soldier I wish this show had a much better military liaison or at least writers who can do a bit more research. Most of the Army scenes are so cringe I have to walk away before I start shouting at the tv.

Welcome to television shows. As a computing engineer I know this feeling too well when people use computers.
If Reacher thinks he's too good to follow the rules of that "Officers club" why doesn't he go somewhere else? Kind of a douchebag to start a fight like that.
loading replies
Yep, I thought the same in the moment (and at his “mail police” comment), but at least it was somewhat mitigated by the later-revealed manipulative team-building intention. Still leaves a bad taste in my mouth after seeing how they were pummeling the already-downed bodies of those innocent guys who were pulled into his self-induced fight..
Can we stop with Wakanda already. Didn't like Black Panther and this is by far the weakest episode, yet.

@marcel1983 any episodes that mention anything Wakanda related, just don't watch it. Then everyone's happy, those of us that are ok with the Wakanda storylines can watch them, people like you that are not, don't have to. All good :thumbsup_tone4:

@balazs955 This episode was written before his death, hence him being in it
Still wondering how Thor died to a single arrow (even if it had the extra force from Hank), it only took a DAY for Loki to take office and he also knew what a mobile phone is. Also why is Hank Yellowjacket, rather than Ant-Man?
loading replies
@volksdk In the comics Hank eventually turns evil and wears the yellow jacket costume
finally, an episode that actually lives up to the name What If, rather than just gender swapping or race swapping a character
loading replies
Hmmm, you have a remarkably narrow world view if all you took from those episodes was just "gender swapping or race swapping a character." T'Challa is a very different person than Peter Quill and Peggy Carter is much more assertive due to her upbringing than opposed to Steve Rogers. The previous two episodes have very little to do with race or gender, and much more to do with how contrasting personalities put in similar situations would create vastly different outcomes.
Yeah, as always Disney stealing back to back from the Japanese. Christine dying here is a rip off of Mayuri from Steins;Gate.

I mean obviously there will be lol. That's why this is how this season ended.
Truly amazing episode. Got me choked up at the ending. It’s too bad that because of the strike that we haven’t heard future plans. I’m sure Filoni already has the complete story outlined at the least (cough cough unlike the sequel trilogy), so hopefully we hear plans for the future installments soon.
And I’m crossing my fingers they come quicker than 2 years between seasons. I’m really looking forward to how Mando and this are going to sync up before the film.

@gk3 The SAG-AFTRA strike pushed EVERYTHING back at least half a year. Everything that wasn't already in the can that was scheduled for 2023 is not coming out until 2024 now. Ahsoka was the last Star Wars that was completed before the strike started from what I hear. Thankfully, it's over and the writers won. Hopefully that means they'll get to work on what's next as soon as they can.

Not one of them had an arm or leg cut off, which would basically remove all the threat from them.loading replies
@gig-glasgow I know at least one headless Deathtrooper who would beg to differ.
Why did Huyang have a spare kyber crystal on the ship? Why Ezra didn't use the Force to build his new lightsaber? Why didn't Morgan recover from her superficial belly wound like Sabine did with her impalment through internal organs? Why Ezra kept wearing his stormtrooper helmet when he escaped the Star Destroyer? Why Ahsoka and Sabine don't use the Perguls that go back to their galaxy, the same ones the nightsisters' ancestors used to get there? Why Trawn has such a positive outlook on life even when things don't go his way? Why Hera changed her orange pants to the brown ones that hides her butt in that one and only scene in the court martial? Why Anakin doesn't pull Ahsoka and Sabine back to the world between worlds and transport them back to their galaxy? Why people like the stuff Dave Felony writes?

@mellowgeek
- Because he was a lightsaber builder
- Why does he need to?
- Plot armor
- Dramatic effect
- The space whales were scared away a few episodes ago
- Staying calm is part of his character and deliberately contrasts with the reactionary and aggressive tempraments of most Imperials
- People change pants irl too
- Force ghosts can't pull people into the World Between Worlds
You'd think a multi-million dollar show would have a better action sequence.What on earth was that scene where Ahsoka , Sabine and Ezra are dodging bullets from over 50 storm troopers , oh my god. That was sooo bad. Even I would have directed a better action sequence.
There is so much fury in Rosario Dawson's face while battling , but we can hardly see any of that in her fights and the result is embarrassingly cringe .
So we finished one complete season and we still haven't gotten a clue as to what Baylon Skoll's arc is? The actor has passed away , rest his soul , so I wonder what on earth would they do now .
The storm troopers usually have a zero plot armour in the movies , here they have been dialled down to -100.
And the director's idea to wrap up this garbage of a finale was to show a glimpse of Anakin in the end? Do you expect us to give a standing ovation for that?
Very very disappointing

@TheBabaYaga Show: has practically an entire episode dedicated to the relationship between Anakin and Ahsoka and has a conversation in the finale about how Anakin was always there for her.
You: what was the point of having Anakin show up at the end, was it just supposed to be a fan service cameo?
Either you didn't pay attention to the show, or you're just looking for things to nitpick about and you decided a popular character showing up was an easy target.
