Saw Hawkeye episode 3. Really digging the cast of this show so far. And I don't mean to be that guy, but it's nice seeing a heroine who's portrayed as capable but still not able to handle quite everything herself.

as opposed to who?

It was kind of silly though how they tried to hold onto the MCU being "realistic" though. Remember how throughout Thor they tried really hard to instill the idea that the Asgardians weren't "magic", they were simply using technology so advanced that it just looked like magic? Only later when they became more comfortable with the universe were they like "Oh, yeah, magic totally exists lmao"

I have to admit though I did like how much more down to earth it felt, and how I was a bit disappointed that that became basically impossible once Thor became involved

Obviously in the end it didn't matter but I do specifically remember being a little sad that they were abandoning realism so quickly.

The release order is: DD1, JJ1, DD2, LC1, IF1, Defenders, Pun1, JJ2, LC2, IF2, DD3, Pun 2, JJ3.

IF1, as you likely know, is the worst of it, but other than DD3 the rest of the shows never fully deliver on the level of those first 3 seasons. You could also watch the two Punisher seasons without seeing anything past DD2 since he no longer crosses over with the rest story-wise after that.

I actually think Luke Cage S2 is better than LC S1, all the JJ seasons are good and Daredevil isn't that good in general but definitely not after S1.

On a whole I agree but I think the first half of Cage S1 (Before Cottonmouth dies) is better than S2. The back half really brings it down.

Also love S2 for giving us one episode of Power Man & Iron Fist, that was nice.

Saw Hawkeye episode 4, well this is definitely building up to something. Not trying to dance around spoilers or anything, but this really feels like the "the plot thickens" episode. 2 & 3 almost feel like filler.

Also oh no Hawkeye was getting beaten up by two women and the show's main character is also female, social justice agendas ruining MCU confirmed.

Also at the risk of embarrassing myself further, what I meant to get across earlier was that I liked how the Black Widow movie finally gave Natasha her time in the sun at last and that helped me realize how cool it was to stick with this character throughout the entire MCU (regardless of me not having seen a lot of the earlier films). I REALLY should not have framed that in the way I did, unfortunately that's where my perverted mind went first. For all the BW movie did wrong I at least felt like it did that well which is what I meant to get across. Yes the way I wrote it originally is the way I thought it out, but suffice to say it clearly didn't come out the way I wanted it to.

I was joking, didn't actually know about that! That's why I put it in spoilers. I did know about Nerdrotic but the amount of videos of his I've fully watched is almost certainly in the single digits.

Anyway watched episode 5 last night. Yelena FTW, otherwise the episode mostly just came across as characters reacting to what happened in the previous one. Not that there's anything really wrong with that.

Honestly I realized the whole idea of "Get woke, go broke" probably comes from comic book fans who extrapolate their medium's trends onto much bigger and more mainstream media like video games and film. It's pretty clear that's not the case and yet they'll continue to raise hell. I've largely ignored Nerdrotic because his gimmick is even more blatantly obvious than it is for others and his video titles are full of clickbait.

I just find the narratives these people peddle as being utterly ridiculous and borne out of horribly bigoted mindsets. It took me until today to realize I couldn't think of many white male heroes still alive in the MCU because I don't typically pay much attention to that kind of thing, which is also why the politically-motivated backlash towards the Star Wars sequel trilogy took me by surprise. Even otherwise though the film industry is so predominantly white and male that complaining about there being not enough white male heroes comes off to me as being a completely new development with no past precedent, and makes it seem like these people can dish it out but they can't take it. The amount of parallels all this has to real-world politics is also insane but them's the breaks. I still feel like this is being driven by angry comic book fans and Star Wars fans who simply hate how the trends that supposedly destroyed their media are spreading to the MCU and I freaking loathe how sore Star Wars fans in particular are to the point it affects their judgement of completely different franchises.

(that being said, I do understand that the sequel trilogy would have been very contentious even without people bent out of shape over identity politics, but that's not a discussion for here)

Hawkeye episode 6 was win all around.

Best Marvel Disney+ series.

Comic book fans are absolutely the worst. Also being honest, I didn't mean my comment about liking how Kate is both capable and still vulnerable to be a jab at any character in particular and it was meant more as a general statement. I actually do have a problem with bland movie heroines as of late though, and the obvious suspects are far from the worst offenders IMO.

Funny, because as a comic book fan, I think people who think they've experienced a video game by watching a Let's Play of it and think they are participating in the critical dialogue around a film because they watched a guy with a green screen in their mom's basement rant about it are the worst.

Yeah I might just be picking the absolute worst of the worst, but comic book fans tend to get mad when a traditionally white character is played by a non-white actor. It got to the point where Michael B. Jordan could file people complaining about his casting in Fant4stic under the same umbrella even though there were other reasons people were apprehensive about it like him not even having to audition.

Having said that, I didn't bring up Nerdrotic. I already explained even I don't go there.

That's not quite what you said. You said you've fully watched (maybe) less than 10 of their videos, which is a weird way to say something like that, since it implies you've partially watched more than that.

Is this where I say I recently finished Loki?

Loki and Mobius had excellent chemistry [friendship, buddycop, romantic, however you wanna take it]. I was really struggling with the Sylvie romance subplot :\ Just didn't seem believable to me at all.

Mr Hiddleston continues to elevate every scene he's in. A terrific, terrific actor.

I've been told to watch WandaVision next, and I've finally seen up to Endgame in the films. Suggestions welcome.
