Yes, I know that isnt saying much. I had no real interest in watching the Inhumans- but if it really is this bad, I may check it out for the trainwreck aspect. I haven't seen the 94 Corman FF movie yet,but this documentary I saw agrees with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Wow. The Variety review was harsh. My favorite lines: Do not spend any of your limited time on this planet watching this show. If you have a superpower, use it to race away from “Inhumans” faster than the speed of light. Even for those of us who review TV programs for a living, it’s difficult to capture the breadth, depth and scope of “Inhumans’” awfulness (which had to have been terrible on a larger scale when the pilot was released in IMAX theatres weeks ago).

skypinkblu Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I don't think it's the worst thing I've seen... Spoiler but I did keep waiting to see if the Hawaii 5.0 guys were joining in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juno Beach Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 God, that sucked. But I've never been a fan of the Inhumans, I find them unrelatable. A royal family is an archaic idea in today's world. A TV show where the main actor can't speak? Seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Aldred Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 At least Lockjaw has the option of leaving Attilan and joining the Pet Avengers instead. ComicConnoisseur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmaz Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Certainly not as bad as everyone has been saying. I found it at least somewhat watchable, and at least sparks (ok embers) of things that I think could lead to a decent show down the line. Handing the project to the guy who completly mishandled Iron Fist was obviously a mistake, but my guess is that's part of the reason for the bad reviews too. People are just assuming it's horrible and coming to it with that attitude. Watched with an open mind I think the debut 2 hours was completely "eh.." I'm not sure, but I'm guessing that's the best review they've gotten so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEnglandGothic Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I tried something different while trying to watch it last night. I shut the sound off for about an hour and focused on the acting in a series of images. It was the part of the revolt and teleportation to Hawaii (?) . It helped me finish the thing. It definitely is up there with Ghost Rider 2 in quality, in regards to a squandered cast. bad setting and cheap effects.

ComicConnoisseur Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) I have a little downtime this week-end with just enough time to either watch Inhumans or Tom Cruise's Mummy. Which one should I pick? Edited September 30, 2017 by ComicConnoisseur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if any of the Inhumans first 2 episodes were filmed in Banff or Jasper, Alberta, as the Royal Family was Lockjawed to Hawaii. Perhaps move Attilan city from Blue side of the moon to inside of a volcano crator? Seemed to be edited badly due to the timeline (shift?) from opening scene to last scene focussing on Triton. And if they have hi-tech in Attilan, why was Crystal wearing 80s style headphones instead of iPhone wireless earbuds that look like u have a cigarette hanging off of the teen's ears? TV so bad it is good, or plain bad? Episode 3 at your own risk of destroying Kirby's legacy from the great 1960s Inhumans. Edited September 30, 2017 by aardvark88 sp.

apollobuzz Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Just watched the first two episodes. I thought it was okay. I felt the first few episodes of Marvel Agents of Shield were about the same. But then that show got better. I will keep watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and the entire first episode is a conflict between Black Bolt and Maximus over who has the better recipe for Rocky Moutain Oysters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broke as a Joke Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Somehow, one of the tv's had this on last night at my house and I watched a hairless Medusa ride around in a tour bus for 20 minutes. Oh the drama... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will watch Agents of Shield and Supergirl and won't watch the Flash or Arrow (which are my favorites) so it's pretty high praise;). So maybe for someone who had no idea who these characters were supposed to be, it's not so bad. I loved Lockjaw, thought Black Bolt looked just like the comic character and so did Crystal (except for the tar in her hair). I'll give it another chance.
