I only remember the Marvel Action Hour as Iron Man and FF. Season one of each being Really bad. Season two was a significant upgrade. They both got really good theme songs too.

 

In comparison:

 

Iron Man

 

Spoiler

 

 

The Fantastic Four:

 

Spoiler

 

 

 

It is a shame looking at these. The MCU Iron Man fans have mostly been robbed of seeing his entire rogues gallery onscreen.

Just going to say it. Biker Mice from Mars was garbage as was the Shark one. 

Agreed. Both tried to emulate TMNT and Bucky O' Hare. But with 90's edge! Both failed, even with Vin Diesel...

Saw Shang Chi at the IMAX,  loved the film; very strong intro for an origin story.

 

Having martial arts in a blockbuster movie is always a plus in my books and the choreography was 👌 

 

Tony Leung as Wenwu was amazing casting.

 

Chinese folklore was a bonus.

Ok, right there it looks good. It's flat, it's black, it works with the rest of the visuals on the cover. But the golden 3D animated thing just looks odd.

 

Anyway. My D+ runs out on January so if this has 6 episodes or less I'll be able to watch it. Tense!

I can't say I'm enthused for this one. Not really in my top ten favourite Marvel (or MCU) characters. But saying that, it is one of the reasons I like the weekly schedule of D+. If I don't like the pilot, I can skip the rest.

Just watched it with sound. Really good. Really like the girl playing Kate as well. Even in the trailer she seems fun.

 

It’s not quite the same as the comic in tone but the ideas are there. They seem to be role reversing a bit as well. Where she is a bit of a mess making lots of mistakes and he’s teaching her. In the comic it was Clint was a mess fucking up situations and Kate was essentially trying to life coach and support him to do more with himself. Except for when it actually came to Hawkeye-ing and he proved to be wiser and more experienced. 
 

There was also some sexual tension between them in the comic which since Clint is married in the MCU I guess isn’t going to happen.

 

Damn. Pumped for this show. This has been my most anticipated MCU thing for ages. It looks like it’s on the right track.

I was watching a video on YT and reminded that the gangsters Hawkeye fights in the comic and seemingly in the TV show are called the Tracksuit Mafia, and they’re not Russian they’re Eastern European. But they always talk like this

Also there is a dog in the trailer so we are going to get pizza dog. Nice.

Watched the first Whaf if... episode yesterday with Captain Carter. I loved Atwell in the movies so this was right up my alley and I enjoyed it throughout. Some of the fight choreographies were a lot better than I anticipated and while the facial animations looked a bit off at times, the overall movement during action scenes was phenomenal. The storyline didn't get too wild as it basically just genderswapped the movie, but that was more or less what I expected anyway.

 

The problem I have now is that all the other episodes, except for the one with Dr. Strange, don't really interest me. Is it worth checking them all out regardless or should I just leave it at that?

The funny thing is, to me, you've picked out the two least interesting so far. Episode 2 is probably the best one to date. As they are only half hour long, I'd say they are worth a punt to watch them regardless...

 

What If? Episode 6

Oh boy...

This episode, features elements of Iron Man 1, Black Panther and Age of Ultron. It suffers the opposite problem of Episode 1. That was an abridged version of the first Cap film. This, tries to pack too much in and the ending is ...abrupt. A couple of soundalikes for the first time too. No RDJR, Jeff Bridges or Gwyneth Paltrow. The replacements sound fine and everyone else is on point. Episode 6 really suffers from the run time though. A "To Be Continued" was needed. 6/10

I'm just filtering them by how much I enjoyed the movies or the MCU version of the characters they're based on. Rogers and Carter was one of few genuinely human elements in this entire saga before everything got blown into space, so I always had a soft spot for the Captain America movies, at least the first two.

 

The second one is a mix of Black Panther and Guardians, right? See, that doesn't interest me at all. I don't like the GotG movies and Black Panther was just overrated and forgettable, so there's no real pull here for me. I'll check it out though if you say it's good.
