ZattMurdock Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 That’s one hell of an insidious and clever marketing. First it makes you mad then you look closer and… oh. Oh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liiviig 1998 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Solid episode like fury ,cobie and Talos but skrull side of things feels generic for now and some backstory that would have been interesting is just given in lazy exposition. MCU post phase 3 definitely has a world building problem. Another major faction that is a world threat and has been there for sometime...but you definitely feel it was just put there in the present and just given a history . I know they wouldn't have planned for it back then but using maybe flashbacks , or setting up tidbits in previous marvel phase 4 installments which you then develop and payoff in this. Will see how it goes but think this should have an avengers movie acting as an introduction to the new team before we get into meat of the multiversal storyline in the KD/SW 2 parter. Or a civil war type story like you know maybe a hypothetical captain marvel 2: secret invasion since they were heavily involved in the first CM. That would have been a better sale than " the marvels" with two characters the audience barely knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, they are getting massive blowback for it (again, makes sense. AI art is garbage). So we will see if this was just a one off or the beginning of the end. Have yet to watch cause my days just don’t stop anymore. An hour to myself!? What is that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the first thing I thought. Look closely. It’s just smart viral marketing, nothing about Vol. 3 itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudalb Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 It's trying to be a spy thiller, but .so far, does not quite make it. SOme of the climax of episode one was lifted wholesale out of a George Clooney/Nicole Kidman thriller about stolen Nukes called 'Peacemaker".

ZattMurdock Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 I’m still kinda on the fence using Samba as a source, but interesting note of the show over indexing with Black households across the US. Excited for the second episode tonight/tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
