MCU news/things that don't have their own thread

3rd episode.

Marvel shows always do these annoying things like making the bioskin stuff fall off so easily, and having Riri running around with the piece of hood in her hand instead of putting it in her pocket.

ANYWAY, I like the show.

I guarantee if she put the hood piece in her pocket it would somehow fuck her up like it does Parker.
 
Epsidoes 4 to 6, don't read if you don't want spoilers.

Well, that was...an ending? I guess? I mean surely even in 2022 when this was filmed they coudln't have thought a season 2 was a sure thing. But that was a total cliffhanger which in 2025 is almost certain to never be resolved. Even if we see Riri for 8 seconds in the background of an Avengers movie or something it's not like they're going to bring up that she made a deal with Satan.

I guess the heist crew were all evil, then? Because last week I thought they were maybe meant to be lovable Robin Hood-types with only John being a bad guy (and Parker corrutped by the hood) but this week they were all totally fine with murdering Riri. Then they were in the last episode. Bye?

It's not like it was all bad or anything: Zeke continued to be entertaining and I'm glad they didn't have him go completely evil at the end. I really like Zelma in the her scenes, the first especially with the magic dimension felt more alive than a lot of the shows The actress did a really good job.

She would have been a better lead character than Riri, to be honest.

It's funny how they still don't get to the point where Riri is actually a hero? All she ends up doing is cleaning up her own mess. Then she makes a deal with Satan. I don't know, have her save some kittens or something to make her a bit more likable?

The actor playing Mephisto did a good job, I thought they'd make it more comedic given who he is but he was more sinister than wacky.

I don't know if good or bad but Mephisto was giving me Seth "Freakin'" Rollins vibes.
 
Episode 5 is the best one so far, imo. FINALLY THEY DO SOMETHING.

There are things I really like about this series and things I don't like so I will say them before I forget. OK

I like the acting, I like the actors, the special effects are movie quality, and I partially like the writing (which is the weird part). I like the dialogue, but the story is not told well, if that makes sense. When the characters are interacting with each other it is good, but the story that should move them along has the weirdest pacing. Joe wasn't friends with Riri long enough to be mad enough to nearly turn evil, he wasn't in jail long enough to be so easily taken by the dark side. WAS HE? This show has nearly 6 hours to tell a story, but it feels like they waited until the 5th hour to start telling it.
