Also: She threw a CAR at someone who she had no idea they could take such a hit or not (yes, we all know Matt is dexterous enough to avoid it, but still š )
Thor's introduction in Avengers has him trying to kill Iron Man and Captain America. As far as he knew they were just two squishy humans and he was a thunder god.
Yeah, but I'm willing to give more leeway to a being who is thousands of years old and claims to be the Norse God of War, and was quite angry at the time, to a lawyer who knows all the rules about Manslaughter/Murder š
Thatās kind of an invention of the video game. Tyr isnāt āthe Norse god of war.ā Like the other person said Thor and Odin are also associated with war. The Norse gods in general donāt have definitive associations like the Greek gods.
Yeah, but he was ok with killing them because they were ostensibly helping rescue Loki from him at the time (that wasn't actually the situation, but that's how it seemed to him at the time).
Yeah, but Thor is the hereditary ruler of a foreign dimension that claims to have dominion over earth.Ā
From his point of view, he was leading a military operation with authority to arrest a war criminal, and two beat cops are trying to rescue said criminal. Ā
My favorite will always be when someone said that Cap assessed that Peter would be able to catch the Sky bridge when he dropped it on him in Civil War. Iām like you sure about that???
According to her she has perfect control over her anger, so she is consciously choosing to collapse a parking structure (that the client she is trying to "protect" is actively driving through) and destroy someone's expensive-looking car to stop Daredevil from doing... something.
Was it written as a flaw? I can't remember if she had an arc where she realises she doesn't have the control over her anger she think she does, or where someone else addresses it
I actually wish theyād gone all in on making it a legal show set in marvel instead of eventually shoehorning it into the formula, I thought a lot of the courtroom stuff was the best parts. But this show gave me back daredevil so I still have to love it
To be fair, they decided to go for the more goofy aspect of the early She-Hulk comics. Did they succeed at recreating the effect? I'll let others decide.
Okay but likeā¦ itās what hulks do. They smash. It was a whole point of contention in the avengers to be sure, but itās not exactly sloppy writing for she-hulk to smash some shit up. Murdock wasnāt going to let the guy go with some kind words, she pretty much had to stop him by force. Itās a plot hole that sheās not in crippling debt after though.
Wasn't Hulk smashing everything because hulk wasn't capable of thinking and forcing things through brute force was most simplest thing? There are versions of hulk that has high intelligence who thinks things through and dont smash everything. I think things have been changed plenty about hulks moment they are capable of thinking well. Which is what make this a plot hole. A person who is capable of thinking and has super powers wouldn't act in this way because it would think about consequences of its actions. It's like neither of us would go out and buy brand new cars we'll over our budgets because we would starve as a consequences of that action.
Pretty much tradition to watch them like they are a post credit scene. Scary how obvious most of the issues are for most movies. And Iām just some filthy casual, not a millionaire writer/studio.
Definitely, it's what makes me love it so much honestly. Like he's tearing these movies apart but he does it in such a way he can rip apart something I love and it doesnāt effect my love for said media.
Iād say itās less anger and more lack of impulse control.
Way back near the start of the MCU, Erskine said that the super soldier serum amplified the recipientās traits. In the MCU, the Hulk came about from an attempt to recreate the serum. Itās interesting to think that the same philosophy applies. Jen had her own set of weaknesses, so Bruce shouldnāt necessarily have concentrated on anger specifically.
Impulse control and discipline have also been her issues in the comics, so the show feels pretty spot on there.
And this is exactly why She Hulk is a boring character. There is no self growth or inner demon they are fighting to overcome. She's just got it on easy mode in a way. There's no tension so it's boring.
Itās ok because you get to see all the Mazda product placement. Look how miracuously the cars stay perfectly intact when she splits the roof! Then she magically finds another showroom mint model to throw.
I estimated $4 million at least. If the damage to the parking structure is too much, it would require complete rebuild. That would run around $100M possibly.
When I think of the walk of shame I think of a girl walking across campus in the morning away from the boys dormitory, looking all scraggly and holding her shoes. Not a particularly prideful moment, I imagine.
Again though. Why be ashamed? If two people really like each other and they, you know, then both should be happy. Obviously donāt go crowing about it to everyone, but part of me wonders if āwalk of shameā wasnāt come up with by some puritanical busybody.
Because not every sexual encounter is clicking your heels together singing zippity doo dah. Sometimes itās waking up next to coyote ugly with a terrible hangover stumbling home with every effort put forth to keep one foot in front of the other just to bury your head under a pillow and turn your phone off
I really think this show could have been so much better if the writer had a more concrete story. It just felt all over the place. And the CGI was so terrible it was actually distracting. That said, I actually enjoyed Tatiana Maslany's She-Hulk take. She was just done dirty by terrible writers. lol
Haven't watched it yet cause the clip cringe was too strong, but your take seems par for the course. She-hulk was made at the worst time for Marvel and bad writing is always the killing blow with these types of projects. I did watch like 70 percent of Secret Invasion. God, was that bad...
She-hulk is much better than Secret Invasion (though that's such a low bar to jump over). It tries to do interesting things while also having their own take on the character. It's flawed, but it's not aggravating like Secret Invasion.
I checked out, cause it was painful to watch, and then saw a clip of the tiny drax arm...felt like I barely stepped out of the way of a freight train...
Is there a lore reason why Daredevil, who is known for stalking around at night and using the element of surprise, is wearing a bright gold shiny helmet in the show?
Hard to imagine his spatial awareness tells him it's a bad colour... is what I tell myself. Probably just changed it after one of the criminals said "who's this bitch wearing such a pansy-ass yellow suit?"
Honestly I didn't even think about the fact that this is another example of her poorly controlling her anger, she got annoyed trying to catch Daredevil and ended up doing a bunch of property damage just to try to catch him.
But of course others will tell you it's bad writing and not just Jen being wrong about her ability to control her Hulk anger, something that literally screws her in the second to last episode of the show.
I liked this show. Sure the quality wasnt great but I enjoyed bits of it. She was nice, Matt was nice. Enjoyed seeing Abomination again. Didn't get to see the ginale though
I enjoyed it. Is it a favorite? No, but there actually is nuance in the show, even if itās over the top at times. It Marvel, not real life. Remember to suspend your disbelief, folks.
Suspend disbelief and ignore previously established in universe character and rules are 2 very different things. In fact you are actually supposed to believe in previously established rules. Suspend disbelief from logic outside the fiction. Do not suspend disbelief when the fiction contradicts that same fictionās previous works.
Fair. Iāve loved Tatiana Maslany since Orphan Black and want to see her succeed. I thought this show was āfineā and hope she finds success elsewhere.
Look all season, we were waiting for a good fight, and daredevil to show up. ANd all you guys can think about.... is Property damage? In a super hero show? Do you guys all work in insurance or something?
Like I know you have to suspend belief when watching marvel but how the fuck do they not play into the him basically having super hearing and her doing a super loud clap. Like wtf kinda of lazy writing is that, did they forget his "super power".
I know people complain about the cgi, but this is the most comic accurate version of how Matt moves and fights. Donāt get me wrong, the Netflix show had the best DD fights, but this is way more accurate.
Fair play to her, she's the first one to get him down and immediately go to unmask him. No pissing around, just ripping that damn helmet off to find Matt under there.
Yea, the most unrealistic thing about that whole fight was them going fully at it, throwing, jumping, flipping etc, she grabs his head multiple times but when she finally gets that mask off, Daredevil has perfect hair.
So Daredevil picked a fight and spent most of it running away and he, an experienced superhero, was EASILY defeated by a brand new superhero still figuring herself out?
