Good episode

 

[Johnny Utah]

Very good episode. Great ending. My main reason for watching is gone now though.

I’m enjoying the show but everything is just a little bit cheap about it. The writing is not sophisticated and some of the acting is pretty average. Even the action is a bit been there done that a zillion times for the MCU. How many times do we need to see a car flip over. Thank god for Ben Mendelsohn.

God I hope not one of the few great characters and actors in the MCU the past four years

Man, from what I've been reading this sounds look a **** show. Contradicts a lot of MCU canon from the movies. And what they're doing/done to Fury is sad. Totally destroying his character.

I’m liking this series for what it is, but IMO Marvel should have pushed it back 2-3 years; titled it “Prelude to Secret Invasion”; and used it to set up a major theatrical release.

I'm enjoying this series very much.

L.

 

[choombaz]

What a hate watch that was

 

[chrisstbh]

Wouldn’t be an MCU show without a messy CGI fight finale.

It's like when you tip your drink and all the ice slams into your face at the end.

I think I would have preferred that. At least I would have felt something.

Not gonna lie, I'm really disappointed. I was enjoying this series quite a bit but got a bit worried with the last couple episodes being so short... And then I saw the runtime for this one and yeah... I knew they were about to completely fumble the ending.

The way almost nothing gets resolved and there are far more questions than answers as the end is SO frustrating. First off, whilst I was expecting G'iah to help Fury against Gravik the way they did it was awful. Not having Fury get an actual confrontation with the villain of the series is such a shame and a lot of these story beats seem like such a slap in the face of his character. He literally gave a speech last episode about not relying on superpowered beings to do everything and then... that's exactly what happens. This could have been such an interesting and triumphant battle where it showcases Fury's brain and tactics overcoming a superpowered maniac-- Or hell have Fury bust out a nanotech suit of his own(which would actually be a great way to pay homage to his respect for Tony). But nope, instead we get G'iah GETTING EVERY SUPERPOWER and a mess of a cgi fight... Great...
Then the president of the united states declares he's going to commit genocide and Fury gets angry on the phone and ***** back off to space, EVEN THOUGH NOTHING WAS ACCOMPLISHED and he LOST HIS TWO CLOSEST MATES. But oh all is well cause his wife and him reconciled, I guess? Also the lack of any clarification on how long Rhodey was a skrull is the cherry on top of middle fingers to the audience. And look, I fully expect it to be the boring "oh it was sometime after Endgame" but them holding off on it is just gonna make that reveal even more annoying and underwhelming.

The disappointment turns more into anger when I'm painfully reminded this was the end for Maria Hill </3
And it was basically for nothing.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Very poor finale.

 

[e30ernest]

Missed the landing by a mile.

 

[chrisstbh]

Can't believe there's now a character in the MCU with the powers of EVERY single character from the Endgame battle, absolutely ridiculous, and she'll never appear again.

Time to reboot retire MCU
