I also wanted to hulk smash something after I sat there for 5 minutes and there was no easter egg of any sort. What MCU brass thought it was a good idea to produce this segment, much less air it. Spoiler Also is Kingpin really dead? I'm guessing he was wearing some sort of flak jacket as he also took a couple of Kate's arrows at point blank range and just shrugged it off.

Found it to be the consistently best of the live-action DIS+ Marvel series so far. Great to see another NFLX character join up. Agreed. Prior to this, I thought Loki was the best of the bunch. Now it's close between that and Hawkeye. They neatly wrapped up several plot threads and resolved it nicely. Also, I enjoyed Swordsman, even though he never did suit up. However, his character was well written and the actor did a fine job. Hopefully, we'll see him later in Dark Avengers or Thunderbolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@therealsilvermane Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Regarding the sneak preview of Rogers! The Musical, while meant to poke fun at the idea that anything popular gets made into a musical these days, I actually appreciated how for a majority of the "Save the City" number, the performers weren't the Avengers but ordinary New Yorkers in an ordinary Village People kind of way. For me, it kinda presents the idea that New York isn't these Marvel heroes in colorful spandex but the doctors, the business people, the lawyers, the cops, the waiters, and the construction folk that make the city tick. gadzukes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@therealsilvermane Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Also it would have been easier if Kate Bishop had just hit Kingpin with a Pym tech shrinking arrow and then stepped on him. gadzukes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Loved the ending and the show in general. Florence Pugh was better in this series, by far, than she was in BW movie. And my wife thought Renner was interesting for perhaps the first time in the MCU. I enjoyed Echo and Kingpin. He has to be physically surprising. The ending of the episode was indeed a surprise, but no body means not really dead, we know that much right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I'm a Theatre Major and have been in many musicals thru the years so I'm biased. I applaud the effort put in to making that and performing it. I can see some fans cringing (the same ones who don't like musicals in general), but I had a smile on my face the whole time. I want to see Rogers the Musical now.

Spoiler I was so hoping that Disney wouldn't kill him off.. I grew up in NYC and I've always loved and have seen MANY many many musicals...anything I could get to. But I have to say, that I honestly thought that show was supposed to be a funny spoof. If it's a "preview" of a more serious show, I will have to skip the "real" one.

NewWorldOrder Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 OMG. This was the worst series so far on Disney+. I thought Falcon and Winter Solider was hot garbage until I finished this joke of a series. Ending was so lame with predictable dialogue. Terrible final episode. It felt like a CW show it was so corny and cringe, especially the post credit scene. No wonder my Disney stock is plummeting.

Have you seen the big Marvel Avengers "Live" productions that were touring the country before the Pandemic hit? They were so corny and awful.... but I loved it (I got free tickets to it once). It was more geared for kids, but I found myself really enjoying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me the last episode was the worst and that was a big let down, but..... it was still watchable to me, whereas I couldn't watch most of Ironfist. Hawkeye wasn't great but I still enjoyed it.

topofthetotem Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I enjoyed it but I felt that it was the least strong of the Disney+ series so far mostly because of Hailee Seinfeld(sp) character, she annoyed me. skypinkblu and gadzukes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
