eh they already introduced Black Bolt. they'll have to keep the inhumans as odd hidden people that can't go into the wider world due to pollution.
i get it if it's done alright.
I dislike both characters. Black Widow in general is just horribly written. I have not interest in see them again.
Not really. He's in an entirely different reality to the main universe. They also include no Inhuman background so the interpretation is entirely on the fact that he is an Inhuman in the comics which can be said of Kamala too yet they hint heavily at Mutants in her show and she's clearly not a comics Inhuman because there's no Terrigen thing etc. But my largest point is that Black Bolt is a different reality as I said.
The program she and her sister are part of is designed to produce expert infiltrators and seductresses who use every trick in the book to get their target whether that be assassination, blackmail, whatever. I think her personality suits the background just fine. And we see when she's not required to be sociable she's pretty grumpy and taciturn. It's a pretty poor movie but she is good.
Again, got to disagree. The actor brings a lot of charisma and empathy to the role of the forgotten and discarded hero, imo. I don't think they mean him to be a child trafficker. The only kids I think he brings in are his 'daughters' and Natasha is actually already an agent and was one before she was sent to America, He's in prison most of the time they're being trained and I'm not sure he even knows about the mind-control at the time. That was their mother's project. He thinks it's an opportunity for them that they just don't understand yet. I believe the reason he's in prison is because he tries to get them out of there. I'm not sitting through it a second time to confirm, though.
At least we won't see the hideous CGI dwarf played by Patton Oswalt ever again.
Oh man I forgot about that.
god this would have been kinda funny if it was executed properly and didn't have an air of smugness to it.
Inhumans as a concept and a race were introduced in AOS, but the Inhumans (as in, Black Bolt et al) were in that show that was originally supposed to be a movie but it was so bad and done so cheaply it poisoned the brand for the foreseeable future. A shame, if nothing else, because the Black Bolt, Maximus, and Desmond from LOST actors are good, and were fully wasted in it.
A lot of them probably. Most people know her from golden girls reruns and various references to her and cameos the last several decades. It's like Gary Coleman, who's ironically has ben dead for kind of close to the same time as Bea Arthur has been. They stay somewhat relevant somehow via people calling back to their stuff or the things they were in showing up in places in some form and people going back and checking that stuff out of curiosity sometimes.
That's partly because DC has been trying to turn Harley Quinn into their Deadpool "But a strong independant girlboss and not a white guy!" Instead of doing the obvious thing to do and making Deathstroke their "anti-deadpool" as his gimmick because of the origin of both characters having ties to the same people down to their names being near identical save for a few letters..Just make a super serious deathstroke series and actually write it well it'll do abut as well as deadpool does probably.
Wouldn't really call it 'redditor tier' when it's full of the kind of stuff that'd make reddit people angry like when he intentionally misgenders wolverine and makes a "i'm gender-blind" comment. misgendering is a BIG nono amidst those guys because well you know, the trans thing.
Wouldn't call it a "cashgrab cameo" if they're all from movies Disney wants people to forget so they can move onto implementing their "modern audience" redo characters into the MCU. (whenever they get out of dev hell or get turned into stretched out disney+ shows)
Which is just the dumbest thing because her character does not work on her own. She needs to have a relationship of some kind to work.
The comic writers and now TV show writers never seem to fully understand why people liked the character or even what made them work. Recent stuff has been doing that thing where they have the character called harley quinn and having the appearance of the character while simultaneously not being tied to the joker or even having a reason for dressing like a fucking harlequin but before that they ruined the character by making her actually retarded level "attractive simp but also gets superpowers because she gets bleached like joker and then she breaks off and becomes a girlboss!!!!" It's stupid.
No, he isn't. He is there just because he is pissed off some of his superiors with something completely unrelated to the girls.
This clip is great and really shows a dynamic of Harley and The Joker that people forget. Harley didn't just roll over and accept all the abuse given to her. She still accepted some, yes, but when pushed she snipped and snapped back at The Joker like they were an old married couple, and there was at least one occasion where she tried to kill him because he went too far. The tragedy was that every time she manages to get out and try to move on, he'd do something to pull her back in and she'd fall back into the cycle of abuse. Just like almost all the prominent figures in Batman's Rogues Gallery, she was as tragic as she was dangerous. She was manipulated, yes, but you can't say she was unaware of what she was doing or didn't enjoy it. She's a bad person that deserves punishment, not to have all her crimes shrugged off as the fault of her abuser and him alone.
You know what bothers me?
He'd probably work better as a background guy and miniseries, but yeah a not-shit marvel could do it good
They have the opposite problem, actually. Phase 4 and 5 weren't building to anything. Stuff that happens in one show didn't affect each other in a logical way. Remember that in She-hulk, the Sokovia Accords were abolished. Aside from WHY?! It doesn't affect FATWS or Thor 4. Doctor Strange 2 could have really used help from other Supes, but Doc doesn't bother to call in Hawkeye and rather let a hundred mooks with the same kind of weapon defend the temple. Kang is strictly an Antman villain that got beat by socialist ants and the Marvels and the Guardians and the Celestials don't interact at all despite being cosmic characters. None of these shows and movies are thematically related to each other, nor do they build a bigger narrative or world towards anything.
I think phase 4 was eaten by the whole DEI shit where we get Echo and Monica Rambeau and many other BIPOC heroes without any real payoff or interest. Like, cool we get all these characters. What the fuck are they going to do that's interesting? Kate Bishop and She-Hulk were at least directly tied to relevant OG Avengers, but they really fucked up the use of most of the others. Aside from maybe Moon Knight, Hawkeye, and the Falcon-Bucky show from what I've been told.
