It's true that I don't post a lot, but that's because it takes me too much time to write in English, not because I don't dare to say anything. More often than not whatever I have to say has already been said - and said much better than I ever could've. But I do like this show, moreso than WandaVision, even though WandaVision had more potential and to me a more interesting premise. I guess I'm positively surprised. I don't love it to death, though, because it is rather forgettable, and I'm far more invested in the other shows I'm watching at the moment.

Jay 37,372 Posted April 14, 2021 Author Share Posted April 14, 2021 I definitely didn't see a single post that I (or anyone I know) would describe as saying they loved the show to death, and think it's rude of Alex to invent a JWFan consensus that he imagined as believing so This goes back to the whole "everything is either great or shit" thing, when what was actually posted what all over the middle ground of those extremes And it also goes with what's in my signature - "i think it's better to be constructive than destructive and pit one against the other" TSMefford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GerateWohl 4,371 Posted April 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2021 5th episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was great. That was exactly the kind of episode that I always wanted to see in The Mandalorian. An episode not focussed on fighting action but letting the protagonists take some time off and think about their motivations and let them reflect on what happened and get aware of their own development.

Absolutely agreed. This is also stuff they hardly do in the films, but I wish they would do more. I think character driven things like this are incredibly underrated and heavily overlooked in the world of mainstream blockbusters. But a lot of it is probably driven by the crowd who think things like this are boring when people aren't punching the hell out of each other.

A24 4,345 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 With the resentment towards the new Cap and some impressive Super Soldier action, the second episode was much better. Sadly, things went back to boring in the third episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not because of the lack of punching. I confess that I’ve found each episode more boring than the next, punching or no punching. I think it’s because the main characters are the least charismatic characters in the entire MCU. On top of that, there’s a problem with plot. Or rather the lack of plot. Spoiler First episode, I thought that it was about the terrorists. Then, no, now it’s about replacement Captain America and his journey. Now it’s about Zemo. Now it’s about a blond girl. Now we’re supposed to sympathize with the terrorists. Now it’s about racial issues. Now Bucky needs to go soul searching again. Ugh, where is this going and why should I care? Just sell the damn boat already? Why is that a problem? Of why haven’t they sold it already? And please, stop with the masturbation shots of the shield... And what the hell is Elaine from Seinfeld doing here??? Took me completely out of it (as little as I was in), talk about miscast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
