Poor girl (well not poor... shes wealthy, beautiful and a great actress)

That said. Game of thrones season 8 is universally despised and destroyed her character

Solo was the biggest bomb in star wars history and basically led to star wars movies being shelved

Her terminator movie wasnt good

Now secret invasion is perhaps the most universally disliked mcu project, the rest of the controversial ones have some fanbase (maybe not thor dark world). The bad cgi put on her character is a meme

Who will do emilia dirty next? Gunn's dc? Stranger things?

that's not fair. Loki was a goddamn masterpiece. I wouldn't want to follow it either.

Tbh that may have saved secret invasion, its hard to be worse

I watch the shows because i want to be entertained. For the most part theyve done but they keep repeating the same flaws and its getting absurd

To be honest, I dont think shes very good.

Shes not been the reason for those projects failing, but I dont think she brings anything of value to the table either.

It makes characters really dumb for no real reason, has a very predictable ending, does a few things just for shock value that lead to nothing, and undoes pretty much all Fury's character and making him rather incompetent on his own.

I'm not sure anyone has done Femme Fatale as well as Eva Green has(in comparison to the Solo movie).

though being fair to Emilia, I'm not sure she's chosen a good project yet to actually show her acting skills.

I think if she had talent wed have seen some of it by now.

Dont get me wrong, she seems like a nice person and shes clearly a grafter. Just not overly talented.

To be fair, Terminator was in the shitter long before she touched it, and Genisys at least had the balls to do something remotely interesting with the franchise.

Same. I don't understand the love for Loki. It was well done, but I honestly didn't care about a single thing that happened in it. Hawkeye and She-Hulk easily my favorites.

Whats funny is that every piece of property op mentioned were shit loooong before anything attributed to her specifically. Even GoT. Seriously terminator, really? A series that wasn't good since the 90s? Ironically the show featured her costar from game of thrones and most of it was not half bad all things considered, but it was part of the summer Glau curse.

Anyway if I'm being honest with myself she's just... not a good actress. But she's so damn cute and likable, she's more fun in various interviews and late night talk shows than any of her roles. She's just so adorable that it doesn't really matter much if she's not a great actress per se.

If they're all failing in the same way, is it maybe a limitation of the medium (or the studio's demands) to be able to tell the stories, instead of a failure to be creative on the part of the writers?

Problems almost always originate from the management, because they just cant help themselves from micromanaging and mandating ridiculous things they have no understanding of instead of just letting people do their jobs.

Basically, yeah, I agree.

I mean they were bad these are worse.

I actually unironically loved episode 1. Biggest disappointment for me as a kid is that the clone wars...had no clone wars, they started at the very end and then I was disappointed again when they skipped most of it in the 3rd as well.

She did a fairly convincing southern Kentucky accent in a movie I cant recall the name of thats based on a true story. I was impressed it was really her, since I live in southwest Virginia.

I thought people were souring on star wars before solo. Either way, I actually liked solo, but I'm not a star wars fan.
Terminator hadn't really been relevant or good for a while
Can't comment on secret invasion, but I haven't cared for a lot of marvel stuff lately

Unless she has a writing credit for the mediocre scripts, I don't really see how you can fault her for the quality of the projects. And it'd be pretty hard to pass up roles in the enormous franchises she has been a part of.

Right? There's no tension, no surprise, and the action is INCREDIBLY dull. Not only does it not ramp up to anything cool, the final episode ends on a significantly more boring note than the first episode does.
