If War Machine is a Skrull, and there are potentially multiple Super Skrulls being made, is this whole thing going to end in a Superhero fight? If so, who would fight for the good guys? I would assume Monica or Carol but they’re both tied up with the Marvels.
The episode just felt so painful to watch, just things happening without meaning, purely to advance the plot and get it from point A to point B. I just find myself not caring about any of it. The conversations and the dialogue all feel forced, like it’s all meant to induce suspicion and make us question peoples’ motives, but there’s not been any buildup in tension for any of it, so none of it matters.
Also, Nick Fury is apparently the most hated person in the MCU, everybody that knows him, hates his guts.
I really don’t get why they turned Nick Fury into an insufferable asshole hated by everyone
It’s Disney just trashing their own property, they’re apparently incapable of shitting all over themselves the longer they manage a franchise (see Star Wars). And what’s dumb is he’s not even the one that should get blamed for anything! It was literally all on Capt Marvel to find a planet for the Skrulls, she spent 20–30 years putzing around doing who-knows-what, the best Fury could do was to try to keep a lid on things at home. He had no choice in the matter, it’s not like he had a spaceship to go look himself.
And I feel like they’ve really left a big question mark with whatever he was doing in space, that’s just dangling out there getting ignored. I’ll be even more severely disappointed if they don’t answer that with this series.
I liked the moments between Talos and Fury in the trip to Fairbank’s home as well as the tension when they were interrogating Fairbank’s.
I’ve been enjoying seeing those two together. They’ve obviously been friends for a very long time, and it’s been cool to see how they’re relationship has happened behind the scenes. We obviously knew fury had a good network of spies, this just adds a new understanding to how he knew all of everyone’s secrets and rose to power.
was Gravik using extremis at the end of the cafe scene?
Wow I must have missed that. Need to rewatch…
Can’t tell if giah is really stupid or it’s just bad writing :/
Giah and Talos both. Giah for trying to escape in the stupidest way possible and doing a terrible job of covering her tracks. Talos for falling for the most stereotypical spy tactic with the whole phone swap thing.
