Liked: Tatiana and her performance, Bruce and giving a little bit more info on how he merged his two halves, the lighter comedy rom-com style, the CGI was better than the trailers so they improved that. Didn't like: she masters everything without any struggle, diminishes Bruce's long journey. I figured she got the "Smart Hulk" version so that's why she doesn't have 2 competing personas but she didn't face any adversity, at least not yet. She was over the top with being cocky and not needing training, felt like a good buildup to a humbling experience. She has all this power, could face the guilt and shame of losing herself and hurting someone. Also didn't like the Power Rangers villain that showed up for no reason but if that's part of the comedy/tongue-in-cheek style that's fine. Very much a recent Disney mindset. You can say the same for Rey in Star Wars, the girl in the Hawkeye program, etc. Great they are promoting female characters in what was largely a sausage fest franchise/s, but at times, they are just not likeable because they feel perfect, and they belittle a similar male character for no reason. I did see the clip of She Hulk complaining about being catcalled, and can't be the only one to think, nah love, only in your dreams did that happen. 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to skip some steps here and there to keep things moving. Especially with characters that have the same skill set as their predecessors. Rey learning Jedi stuff quickly, I’m fine with - Rey being a master mechanic, pilot, and everything else the plot called for was too much. Especially with every other new character being 2 dimensional. (Or 1 dimensional) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A character who can just learn all the tough bits quickly to get the boring bit of the story done, isn't something I'd invest my time in any more; it's both lazy and been done to death.

I’ve seen people say She’s a knockoff of Deadpool’s fourth Wall but it’s quite the opposite. She did it first, but Deadpool just happens to be the best at it.

That they want men to take female heroes seriously but then twerk. It was marketed from the beginning as a lawyer comedy show. I fully expected spoof/homage to those types of shows just with superheroes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But apparently people on Twitter are mad. After complaining about being objectified by men in episode 1, twerking in an office full of men with a client 2 episodes later kind of does that rant no favours. A feminist would not do that in a work environment; they'd shave their moustache in the bathroom while reading a cat magazine. 😉 To be fair, it's the same type of storytelling from Kenobi and other recent Disney TV adaptations. Look at the big moments with legacy characters and forget that we can't craft a consistent story because we just need content for our online platform. And if you disagree, you are a racist/xenophobe/homophobe/misogynist (delete as applicable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weaponx01 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Good thing Tony Stark never got drunk and danced, dj’d, and fired his blasters at a birthday party full of civilians. He also pissed himself in his suit. But an after credit scene in she-hulk broke marvel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A film with Dead Pool and that She Hulk - yes please. Seeing Dead Pool put down by She Hulk has much comedic potential and breadth to it. The script would largely write itself. Not one that complains about being objectified, disrespected (blah, blah) one minute, then twerks in an office the next, all while looking like Princess Fiona from Shrek. It's just cookie cutter low budget, bad writing Disney BS.
