Poll of the Day > Just watched the first episode of Secret Invasion

(+) Yeah! (+)

So far it's not gripping me at all.

Honestly I haven't cared about Marvel anything since that movie where Grimace snapped his fingers and killed everyone. Seemed like a good place to end it tbh.

yeah but why do that when you can milk it dry

There are good movies here and there but there doesn't seem to be any focus or coherent connection between each film. The limited series format isn't helping either.

i would say that wandavision and loki were probably better than the entire infinity saga imo

probably because they were all self contained stories

What about Grimace's defeat and Spiderman far from home and no way home? And Hawkeye series. That's all I really recommend. Even endgame isn't really a recommendation but it's the conclusion to infinity war.

The quality dip between the television shows and movies is embarrassing. The best Marvel show (Loki) is is maybe on par with the Eternals.

and yet loki is far more entertaining and focused and liked than the externals

You could skip the first 4 episodes of Secret Invasion and not miss anything. In fact I slept through eps 2-4, but the last two were pretty good.

It saddens me that a pretty big event in Marvel canon was reduced to a 6 episode Disney + affair with no fanfare.

No Way Home and Multiverse of Madness were the only 2 things I've cared about in Phase 4.

they needed to give it a rest after endgame. disney just actually fuckin sucks.

idk never watched any of that. I watched Grimace snap his fingers and that was the end of my Marvel experience.

Which indicates how popular the tv shows could be if they were actually, you know, good.

Right now they make the Arrowverse look professional.

I liked how secret invasion started but it got really stupid towards the end. So if you don't like the beginning I'd say don't bother
