Yeah my main complaint is that Steven was pretty lame and clueless. I understand why they went with this framing device but I just feel like I want more Marc.

ZeeSoh Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Liked the first episode. First time I am seeing an MCU show so soon after release rather than months after release like with others Oscar Isaac is great, he plays the awkward, weird and confused character well. I am loving the mystery and obviously they are not gonna reveal everything in the first episode itself. Costume looks great, can't wait to see more of it in action. Also loving all the creatures, I like a bit of Egyptology so I am a bit biased towards that. Third best opening episode for me after WandaVision and Loki.

You don't go from a moody confrontation to an immediate fight scene with gags and stunts and WHAM playing over it. The humor doesn't land at all and undermines the darkness and the situation he is experiencing No it doesn't. The incongruous humor adds to the jarring and dreamlike nature of the scene. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, didn’t work for me at all. And it’s not just that scene, the entire episode has that ricocheting whiplash. Isaac at the museum with the wacky accent and quippy co-workers. He’s a jarring character but it doesn’t work for me, especially because Isaac is playing such a bland, neeby character with Peter Sellers accent. Just find it blunt and broadly shrill to depict his disorder that way. I agree with the reviews from Hollywood Reporter and Slant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menor the Destroyer Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Gonna see with this if imdb rating at similar point can be used as a view proxy for these fan-heavy shows. If so then MK should be well ahead of Hawkeye but slightly behind Loki. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it should work reasonably well for mcu vs mcu, maybe medium correlation for SW and DC, outside of that I wouldn’t expect much yeah. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yandereprime101189 Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 That was a spectacular first episode and its gonna be painful to wait for each episode per week. I think this one could have really benefitted being a movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyday the internet finds a way to surprise me.

BestPicturePlutoNash Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 IMDB has become an unreliable metric. The review bombing is severe. Look at Turning Red. West Side Story is another 3.3% 1/10 votes, mostly because the Ansel stuff 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah saw that too. Was wondering why and checked the MCU sub and found out that it was being review bombed. IMDB has gone to shit, they should try and figure out a system like RT verified audience score (I mean for movies, I know there is no way to verify if someone saw a show or not) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
