The People vs. Marvel
3 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I don't totally understand all of the hate reviews for this show to be honest. I get it not being your thing, but like, worst MCU to date? Worst SHOW to date? Some of you (not all but some) are overreacting in the worst way possible. The bitterness and review bombing marvel has been getting is unfair in my opinion. Kudos to everyone actually being decent human beings and expressing their concerns and constructive criticism though.

I didn't like the post credits scene. If it's just for comedic relief, it's fine I guess. That's just not the sort of stuff that makes me laugh. And it's not the sort of stuff I expect from the MCU. Not all of their movies and shows hit the nail on comedy. It is what it is.

I did like the rest of the episode though. Megan's cameo is literally just a cameo and a post-credits thing. It didn't really get in the way of the story progression, so I'm not mad about it per say.

I think a lot of the jokes are actually funny, and I think Maslany is excellent in the role. She's hilarious and has great comedic timing. Hopefully things start to pick up for her character, now that we're seemingly past the first act of this series. I thought the rest of the acting was fine too. Yeah, the cgi is distracting, but if you can get past that, maybe you'll enjoy yourself!

I do hope that the rest of the show makes effective use of its short runtime. Making this show a sitcom isn't a bad idea, but the episodes don't HAVE to be this short.

We live in a world where Marvel's cinematically universe has an Abomination and a Hulk who can control their anger now. I get people not liking it. I'm gonna keep giving it a chance.
