And then to make matters worse, they announced her own show. I hate that character and the actress. Makes me wanna launch a brick at my TV.

rexinnih Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 OK, just watched this episode, mouth open in disbelief pretty much throughout. On record as enjoying the first two episodes but that third one. Hopefully will pick up but also find the "animated" She-Hulk distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauce Dog Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Not sure what everyone's issue with episode three was...it was good and was the typical courtroom/case episode I was assuming this show would get into. Sticking to the self absorbed man-baby was great. The twerking at the end was nothing, and arguably better than other instances of dancing in the MCU as this literally is taking place in a very lighthearted COMEDY series for a single second. Could the CGI be better, yes...in fact it looked most out of place on Abomination, but for a short comedy series I couldn't care less. Disney/MCU should pay the effects teams more and better treat their workers, so that is the main complaint with any bad CGI - and not that a big green lady doesn't look right for about ten minutes of screen time. theCapraAegagrus and PovertyRow 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is the general design of the story, and the twerking just added on to the disappointment. What I think didn't help the show structure the story in a way this all came together nicely is with that news coming out how they swapped around episodes. So taking Episode 8 and throwing it forward to make it Episode 1, you had Jen already coming across as an established attorney with what appears to be a solid career. So having her complain to Bruce how much she tries to be taken seriously, and yet has to work so much harder than men and yet still isn't taken serious may ignore her accomplishments at that point in time. I wonder if they had left it at Episode 8 of 9 (it will be 9 episodes total), it could have setup some of the story in a way her frustration and explosions would seem logically fitting. But then it is the supporting characters they are throwing out there as comedy pieces as well. Those wanting some of the more serious MCU story influences could be disappointed. The Wrecking Crew seem to much of a mess for now to be taken serious. Edited September 3, 2022 by Bosco685 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted September 3, 2022 Author Share Posted September 3, 2022 The writer's interviews may not be helping. Here's the full interview referenced. To be fair. I hate when Youtubers chop up someone's interview just so they can force those spots to reinforce whatever message they are pushing. But hate to say it - this seems consistent.

So then she does this in front of all her colleges and law firm partners in a glass office for all to see?? And THAT'S how you destroy any sympathy or credibility in "the message" of women not being respected in the workplace.

But you will get these big Youtubers at times that will just chop up an interview to the point you would think something friendly or mild turns into something off the wall. Just recently you had the actor playing Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) being misquoted in an interview on social media that he feels playing the comic book characters is clown work. And that is not what he said. But to mock what happened, he went along with posting an image to laugh it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Jim Jeffries show did the same thing to make a guy look racist when Jeffries was telling the racist jokes. https://mobile.twitter.com/OzraeliAvi/status/1406733501768994816 Edited September 4, 2022 by D84 Fixed incorrect link Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many share whatever they want just to get clicks, and nothing more. It is sad how many learned outrage is one of the strongest emotions to play upon for responses.
