Honestly, I feel bad for Bruce. But now I'm glad that the Iron Man character is over in Marvel and Robert Downey Jr. has refused to play this role any further. Otherwise, these people would have turned him into a joke as well.
She-Hulk deserves so much better than this puddle-deep writing. Jen's supposed to be a loser; a booksmart, physically unassuming lawyer with little self-confidence. Guys aren’t interested in her and she doesn’t have friends. Then she becomes She-Hulk, this sexy, powerful, popular, funny version of herself. Where Bruce sees the Hulk as a curse, Jen sees She-Hulk as a blessing. If Hulk is the embodiment of anger, She-Hulk is the embodiment of self-esteem. Bruce wants to cure himself of the Hulk and stop transforming. Jen lives her day-to-day life as She-Hulk often refusing to transform back. She’s not only battling super villains but also her own confidence and self-worth. The show doesn't explore any of this because she has to be a girlboss. She can only do right and they insert a supporting cast whose entire role is to call her awesome. She has no motivations, no personal struggles, no flaws, no character development, she's just the self-insert power fantasy of a weak writer.
Bro they really tried to hop on the Better Call Saul popularity because, "haha it's funny lawyer guy from Breaking Bad" (Edit because it sounds weird when I say it now) "Haha it's funny lawyer guy from Breaking Bad. We can do that too!"
@@unknown_spy_1984 They didn't try to hop on anything as they simply chose various B tier Marvel characters to make shows about them. She Hulk has always been a character with a lawyer job in the comics decades before Better Call Saul was ever even created let alone a supporting character in Breaking Bad.
@@derpyplatypus1172 She goes to the Marvel offices and it turns out that Marvel content is being written by an AI. Then She-Hulk forces the AI to write a better ending because the current one sucks.
Well, like she says, she's better at controlling anger than he is, so it's even more her area of expertise than it is his. The whole point of that scene is that Banner _is_ the incompetent man explaining her own field of expertise to her.
@@stupidanon5941 That's not her being an expert tho that's just woman pride lmao. "Be careful not to get angry cause you might hurt people" Immediately gets offended and explains how she's being mansplained.
@@stupidanon5941 So she is precisely doing what she hates. Like explained in the video being catcalled and mansplained a couple of times is not even in the same universe as the things Bruce went through. Yet she assumes she is an expert and starts tot talk shit.

Exactly. Movies like Alien and Mad Max Fury Road had actual badass female characters, and it worked because they didn't shove it in the audience's face in literally every scene
@@ItzMalick I know you ain’t a bot, cause I’ve seen you reply to others. This isn’t the best attempt at advertising your content, but I hope you succeed
@@thermex5270 Arcane was also able to make its women characters not only strong and badass, but also with depth and perspective. She-Hulk is the absolute opposite because they proclaimed that their woman characters are "strong and independent" but never actually demonstrated it. The saying "Show, don't tell" didn't apply to She-Hulk, instead they completely reversed it.
It's funny, because both Daredevil and The Punisher are the two highest rated Marvel shows on IMDb as of now. What they lacked in CGI, they made up in actual good stories and plot. We need more of those shows in the MCU, but I KNOW Disney is bound to mess them up as well.
Disney really do be disneying up everything they touch now. They did kids cartoons for nearly a century, so why did we think they would know how to do live-action superhero shows with actual plots and dialogue? It’s outside of their purview.
@@sumguy01 easy, just hire some one who knows how to do it and let them do their job, but the biggest problem here is they don't want to do it, they paid the production team to make this mess, they want this kind of content to be made.
I can’t believe that Thanos wiping the entire universe out of existence probably would have done more justice to the MCU characters than Disney has post phase 3
I'm so impressed that Downey and Evans got out at the absolute perfect time. Not only did it all go so downhill from there, but the MCU was riding sooooo high at the time
Because the hype was at an all time high? There were still plenty of mistakes and quality issues throughout the beginning movies, but the hype helped clear those up. It’s only now that the hype has died down as the build a new story that people are starting to freak out.
@@creaperreaper6676 The films were also objectively better. Iron man 1, Captain America 1, hell even the 2nd Thor were all better than the unoriginal shit they pump out now. The tv shows are garbage, and the new blockbusters rely on cheap laughs of nostalgia. Nothing to do with hype.
@@trtvitor1385 More like the hype was at an all time high… you literally just proved my point. Superhero movies in general were just starting to pick up and it’s because of the “originality” that the hype was built so high. After so many years of the same stuff, it starts to become “unoriginal” despite it still being plenty original. The movies really haven’t changed that much. They are all still the same quality. It’s the viewers attentiveness that has changed. It’s the fact we’ve had these sameish superhero movies for multiple years now. The whole genre as a whole is losing its hype due to repetitiveness, and even then Marvel has done its best to change what it means to be a superhero movie or show and people have still turned it down. I promise you, it’s the hype all the way. The hype is dropping as people start to pick up on the fact that each movie is almost the same, like most superhero movies. The genre is losing its touch. And don’t even try to consider the 2nd Thor movie as “better”.
The worst take for this idea of strong female characters is always “make them toxic asf” or “GIRLBOSS” instead of making them have some kind of character development, which is true strength.
Which is why Wonder-Women for DC was a huge success. It actually provided Inspiration and relatability through the character development. Such waisted potential.
@@ItsReallyGeo in terms of writing yeah but in terms of character spidey is supposed to be a jokester cuz his spidey sense allows his conscious mind to think up quirky one liners as he’s fighting
@@rockyroadmagic4152 Yeah because he is not worried if he will get hit or not because they won't Deadpool it's different he just doesn't care if he gets hit because of his healing factor.
I'm so sick of female protagonists who are all "I'm a strong, independent woman who's just as good as all the men". *News flash:* Not all girls relate to that or feel "represented" by it. I relate more to shy, introverted characters. Heck, I relate more to Nintendo's Luigi and Cartoon Network's Double D, two _male_ characters, than I do to 99% of female characters out there. And I'm sure I'm not the only girl who feels something like that.
Hey; I think you make a good point. Plenty of female characters from fiction are awesome but they were so good because they had complexity. A good example is ripley from aliens. Ripley is strong but not invincible. Smart, but doesn’t know everything. She sometimes gets caught off guard. That’s how a good character is written.
I was about to write this. Everyone wants to be deadpool these days, just like a few years ago when everyone wanted to be Batman and dark and gritty. Suddenly every single universe became dull and drab with washed out colors. Remember Superman Man of Steel from 2013, i fell asleep trying to watch that piece of crap
I find it both funny, and infuriating that She's bragging about how much better she is at controlling her anger than him, while she immediately loses her shit completely enraged at this bit of honest advice, and he's just standing there calmly. Yeah you're really showing how much calmer and more in control you are, B.
Well I feel like that was the point of that sequence though. It's meant to show how wrong she is about her anger. She's arrogant, and her arrogance blinds her. What she's saying and what she's doing doesn't line up and makes her a flawed person which is good for drama and interesting stories. The issue is she never has to face this side of herself or change at all over the course of the show. If they had developed her character more and explored these flaws it would have actually been good in my opinion.
It _was_ the point of the sequence and the show does explore it. Bruce tells Jen to find balance with she hulk, she ignores him and it comes back to bite her for the next 4 episodes. The show actually does a good job in showing that Jens anger and brushing off Bruce was meant to be a character flaw that masked other issues which are explored later in the series but it still allowed for her to be correct in one way: women do experience harrassment and that will factor into her life as she hulk. The comics actually explore this: the idea that your emotional life before becoming a hulk will affect your experiences as the hulk. The Hulk in the comics has a traumatic childhood and that's why he has a separate Hulk identity and is affected by anger as a Hulk. Jen meanwhile is affected by anxiety and never had a separate identity even in the comics. The MCU takes a different approach since they don't delve into the Hulk's backstory (which isn't she-hulks fault. The character existed in the MCU way before she hulk and Marvel ddon'thave full rights to him so they can't do as much with his story) but the core idea is the same: pre-hulk experiences affect life as a hulk.
@@PaladinGear15 No. It's character development. She starts off right in some ways and wrong in others and the show vindicates where she's right and allows her to realise her mistakes in the parts where she wasn't. By episode 8 she has a better grip on balancing her life as she hulk which is what Bruce advised. (I've edited my previous comment to include more detail).
@@mr.ambientsounds1291 yeah I mean I agree with most of what you are saying. I just still feel like they didn’t give her a good low point. Raging out on accident once (not actually hurting anyone) feels a little off. Like if the show is saying she controls her anger differently than Bruce, getting angry seems like the wrong low point. It doesn’t play off the other character flaws we’ve been mentioning. I’d be more down with it though if the resolution to that conflict was a little more believable, but the final episodes ending, while funny, really betrays the entire arc of the show
When she walked in on the last episode in a suit my partner said straight out "why is she walking like a glitched NPC". The use of CGI is beyond terrible
To me, Kim Wexler from the Better Call Saul was and still is one of the best examples on how you write an actually strong female character Edit: Wow. Never got this much likes before, just wow.
Ellen Ripley, my dude. Alien is my absolute favorite movie franchise and nobody ever thought of Ripley as weak, though she can display healthy amounts of human weakness as we all do at times. She didn’t need to put other people down to rise to the challenge but she also didn’t take crap from people to try to establish some kind of victim status. Ripley is a survivor, not a victim. I think that’s the fundamental difference these modern writers are missing.
@@freddie6307 No problem with them releasing it right after BCS but the terrible writing and CGI are the issues. Could've been a good court room drama show but it's modern day Disney
This is why I enjoyed the Hawk Eye series. It’s got a leading female protagonist who doesn’t force women empowerment down your throat compared to She Hulk We aren’t given this “I’m a female, I’m just as strong as a man. I have no enemies because I’m better than you and I’m bad ass because my whole personality revolves around my ironic narcissistic traits” Instead we’re given an average female who think she’s the equivalent of her favourite hero. This had her think she can save the day, but succumbs to the realisation she’s gotten herself into something vastly bigger than her. We’re shown she thinks she’s the equivalent of an avenger, but in the fights we’re shown otherwise. As the story progresses, she succumbs to the acceptance that what she did was wrong and that she’s genuinely sorry for bringing Hawk Eye back into the underground world when all he wanted was to enjoy Christmas with his family She’s shown time and time again she’s strong and that she uses her surroundings to overcome people who are stronger than her. Which is why I love the show. Imo, they truly did a great job for a female protagonist. You aren’t eye rolling at forced woman empowerment because it doesn’t exist in the show. We’ve got a leading female protagonist who actually develops into a better woman over time who has her strong suits, but also has her flaws. That’s why I love the show, and that’s why it’s vastly more enjoyable. Where as She Hulk is completely different. There’s no character development, there’s no story. One moment something happens and for the rest of the season it doesn’t show again: One thing which truly infuriated me is the ending. Why the 4th wall break? Why remove the only interesting plot of the show? Now you’re back to a bland show and it’s ultimately why I’m glad they don’t have plans for another season
Hawkeye is imo the best of the shows, the mentor-protege dynamic actually works and it somehow made Clint getting home in time for Christmas stakes you could care about. As it stands, if Young Avengers does happen then Kate will have to carry it.
The worst thing about the whole Jen and Bruce relationship in the show. Is that in the comics their relationship is pretty open and they're extremely friendly to one another. They open up to each other and in one famous storyline She-hulk thanks him for giving her powers. Up to that point he hated himself for it. He knew what he was doing was going to possibly cause her pain in the future. Whether that be people out to kill her or she lost control and killed people. He didn't want to turn his cousin into what he considered a monster but he had no choice as it was do it or watch her die from blood loss. Hearing those words from her mouth helped him. She also clearly knows about super heroes and what has happened to him. You would think she would be a little bit nicer to a guy who has risked his life multiple times to save the world from enemies and his world breaking alter ego.
1, show ≠ comic. 2, jen and bruce are two completely different people as stated in the show. i'm not exactly gonna be nice when something life changing has happened to me that threatens the life i worked hard to build and that i know for a fact will come to bite me in the ass later. jen is a human like everyone else and reacts accordingly. i think it would've been very out of character if she was super sweet and gung-ho and not going through a literal crisis because her world just got flipped upside down.
I just want to remind people, that in the comics, the relationship between She-Hulk and Hulk was one of the most wholesome, yet tragic, character dynamics they had. Hulk/Bruce both constantly felt guilty for pushing their cousin into their world by giving her their blood, even though they did it to save her life, and She-Hulk constantly feels guilty about how she got the better deal. She can transform at will, and doesn’t have an alter-ego. She got such a better deal than Bruce, and that constantly makes her feel guilty. And because of that, in most incarnations, She-Hulk uses her lawyer skills to keep the government off of her cousin’s back. But it wasn’t all doom and gloom, she was still an upbeat character, she was confident in her body, and she loved the attention she got for her sexy green muscles. She was the original Deadpool, constantly making fun of the reader for only picking up her comics because she was only wearing a towel on the front cover. It wasn’t until very recently, where the comics, and, seemingly Marvel at large, decided to just make the character far more bitter. Like, just writing the character from a place of bitterness. And it sucks, because that bitterness that was never part of this iconic character, is now the only thing that the majority of people, will ever associate her with. Both Hulk and She-Hulk deserved so much better, because they ARE better, they’ve been better. Now look at them. She-Hulk calls her own cousin a whiny b*tch baby, while twerking. Utterly shameful.
It's almost as if the writers didn't like, or perhaps even hated the original She-Hulk. They probably see the old She Hulk as a symbol of misogyny, a female character over sexualized by men, a female character created by sexist pigs, etc. etc. Ad nauseam. Any number of dumb reasons.
@@mochalavender9398 their view is kinda contradicting too, if they dont like the old she-hulk because of "her male gaze design" then why have people commented about her body and have her twerk too ?
@Angelina Callahan that could be true too. Although, the Old she hulk used to make fun of people buying her comics, saying they only buy her comics because she's hot. She was sexualized back in the day too, just as she is now. But that seems like the only aspect of her character they're keeping somewhat similar to the original.
I think Jen talking back to Bruce and trying to say how she controls her anger better is mostly just her showing that she doesn't have any actual control over herself.
Such an inspiring character. I'm so glad the kids will understand that being independent means being a selfish asshole that thinks you are better than everyone else.
Also one thing that bugs me is that she hulk always talks about how hard it is in her awful life but never shows her experiencing any difficulty in the show and if they did it could make her selfish side more believable but it just makes her a tool
Welcome to MCU new generation protagonist: Make the women protagonist as selfish asshole who thinks they're right until someone has to say they're wrong in the end like Wanda Maximoff and She-Hulk while making the men protagonist suffering so much through trauma and insecurities like Marc Spector (Moon Knight), Shang-Chi, Bucky, Sam, Hawkeye and many more.
@@margarethmichelina5146 and the sad thing is its not impossible to write a good female character take the clone wars for instance there are dozens of brilliantly written characters from heroes to villains to in-between and honestly it's a shame that the MCU isn't having the same sort of love now the shows feel like they are trojan horses they are only there to set up another character it's sort of like a pyramid scheme in a franchise one character introduces two more and so on
It’s honestly kinda funny watching writers try and make “A tough, no bullshit strong independent female character” and totally miss the mark; like no, you made an *asshole*. Those are gender neutral.

It's crazy how we had a character like Ripley in the 1970's as a fantastic example of badass women in an action film and rather than replicate that we get Mary Sue's or just plain unlikable characters. We've had great, strong women in film for decades, yet shows and movies these day fall into the same trap repeatedly when it comes to making these type of characters.
The funniest part is that there’s some reviewers out there who can’t say one good thing about it, but are giving it high scored reviews for internet brownie points. I’m glad Charlie keeps it real.
I'll tell you one good thing about the show, they have cameo's in every episode... we are hyped for the cameo's and my prediction and theory at the end is that she will create the thunderbolts. an upcomming movie. everything connects at the end, always remember that.

Yeah, they really forgot how to add weight to intense situations. The original 6 Avengers would always joke around on comms, but when the situation got tense and they were trying to save someone or their life was in serious danger, they would stop with the quips and the score would carry the scene. But nah, let's forget our formula we had for mixing humor with intense battles that we had already perfected the first time we attempted it
that line about her being catcalled is more traumatic then what Bruce went through (watched the clip) was the bit that made me not bother watching the actual show. ive always been a fan of Bruce and the Hulk
@Metal Sign it's true, at the end of she hulk it's revealed that the show was written by an AI called K.E.V.I.N. , and she found out by breaking the 4th wall in Disney + and confronting him in the marvel HQ

The writer stated in an interview that the bathroom scene was “the single most important scene in that entire episode”. She had to fight her co-worker to keep it in. The show was cursed from the start.
I'm really hoping they are making her unlikeable on purpose to have some character development where she become more likeable. But thats unlikely so...
Is hope so but let’s face it the writing staff isn’t that smart. I had a crazy idea like that though maybe she can’t really control the she hulk since everytime she says one thing she does the opposite. Like practically killing some guys over “hey what’s your name?”
i thought something similar when i watched loki ep 3 when loki was acting like a dumbass. i thought he is acting or creating this illusion in female loki's mind and has some kind of plan for later on. But turned out, he was an actual idiot and had no idea what he was doing at all. on the top of that, he was ruining whatever the plan they already had smh.
I would hope so as well but usually these shows are 6-8 episodes long. She would have had something happen by now to give her a flaw or some character development.
@@murdercloak7578 I hope you realize that those guys were literally going to assault her, she didn’t just get angry over a “hey what’s your name?”. It doesn’t take much thought to understand what those men were planning on doing. Plus, that was literally right after she transformed for the first time, you think she’s gonna have control over it?
I am really sorry Marvel turned out this way. I genuinly loved it, and ended up crying at the end of many movies. I never thought I would feel betrayed by it, but here it is. Gonna take a break up until the next Avengers, Goodbye Marvel.
im kind of anxious about Daredevil being in She-Hulk because his show proved that Marvel doesnt need a lot of CGI and quippy dialogue to make something exceptional.
I love how one of the opening lines from the MC is " those with power, are the ones who have the most to answer for" then when she gets power she plays the victim card
thats the point. she has to grow into not ignoring her inherit responsibility, and the show will be her growing into it. she is arrogant and naive and if the writers play their cards in such a way as to make a *story* *happen* (hard target to miss) she will become a better person by the end of it.
Its sad because in their attempt to write a strong female protagonist they fell into the crux of writing one who relies solely on a male (Bruce) to “one-up” all the time. Without Bruce her character is essentially nothing which is sad because it could be so much more but the way she hulk is written is entirely reliant on male character who she has to prove she is better? than for no reason.
Yeah they should have daredevil train her or someone other than bruce because it just become a dick measuring contest in the end. Also that will save lot of cgi budget and the cgi could get better.
@@hidayatmusroni the cgi could be so much better, shes a fucking order of magnitude lighter in skin than he is, she has almost no muscle and none of that hulky roughness. i want she-hulk, not the fuckin gangrene girlboss
She never attempts to prove that she's better These are the only ways in which she's better: Her blood because of genetics Her control Her flexibility Her lawyer profession which isn't being better, just different Bruce is better in every other way: he's stronger, smarter (one of the smartest ones), heroic, etc People really gotta stop taking their cousin rivalry jokes as seriously as they do, it's clear that when she says that she's better that she's mocking Bruce like a cousin would Also, she never tries to one-up him, hell, she doesn't even want her powers And Hulk is only a cameo appearance in episode 1 and ending of 2, the series is not about She Hulk and Hulk and the show is pretty clear what it wants to be about
There isn't a single show in existence that was acclaimed by people with writers that think of nothing other than ''strong independent woman'' trope. If they JUST stop for a second and write a character without making their gender a plot point, maybe then they can write something remotely watchable.
What's worse about the whole Jen saying she has it worse than Bruce is that people on Twitter are defending that. And when people call them out for it by telling them the horrible things Bruce has been through, they just reinforce the stereotype about all men being emotionless by saying that he needs to man up. People on Twitter actually think that a woman being catcalled is worse than a kid seeing their abusive father beat their mom to death.
@@EpicEverz nah, these people's brains literally work on a marginalization pyramid, and the closer you are to a cis hetero white male, the less human you are to them
I'm so sick of shows writing "empowered" as hyper aggressive and hostile. Bruce is trying to help her and make sure the she-hulk doesn't hurt any innocents and he is ignored and ridiculed. And then she fights him for reasons I can't remember.
I like how the activist script writers have the exact same view of "powerful women" that misogynists do. Hyper aggressive and hostile. I feel like the two sides feed into each other to create an exaggerated worldview that they both believe in, but just disagree on whether it's good or bad. Whereas normal people disagree with the exaggerated worldview itself.
I also feel like Bruce has lost three of his best friends, Steve Rogers, and Tony Stark, and Thor is in the middle of nowhere, this leads to Bruce feeling even more Isolated the before, Imagine how much rage and depression is built up from all of his experiences.
She's to self-indulgent in the show, "me me me, what I want to do" Bruce even gives her a speech in episode one stating she has powers and a responsibility, she goes all girl boss and says "nah I'm a lawyer" then she gets fired which was kinda funny
I think one of the biggest problems is that the writers think that this is what a strong woman has to look like, someone who is always trying to prove that they're better than the men around them in every way.
It's the same with Galadriel in Rings of Power. Literally her only dialogue is shitting on male characters around her and one-shotting any real threat she encounters. In the first episode she uses one of the guy elves as a stepping stool just to slay a troll in 10 seconds lol. The worst part is the acting is incredibly wooden so it just comes off as forced girlbossing, and the showrunners thought making her the main character for the upcoming 5 seasons was a good idea.
@TGDM Show She literally says to bruces face that being cat called and getting constructive advice from men in her area of expertise is the same as trying to put a bullet in your own skull, only to have your alter ego spit it back out.
They literally do that in the show I find it so annoying that they refer to Hulk as a race of Giant green people even though 2 Exist and Hulk was just the name of the guy Banner turns into
It's crazy that we used to watch Toby Mcguire spiderman 1-3 on repeat and yet this man has surpassed us by withstanding 150 minutes (or something idk I don't watch it because I'm the CGI would give me a cluster migraine).
It doesn't matter where it was going plot wise to be honest; by the last episode the writer's lost faith in their own plot and had their "empowered woman" she hulk jump out of her own show into the real world and pull a Karen by asking to speak to the manager. She then proceeded to use her power of entitlement to have him wrap everything up the way she thought she deserved to have it happen.
Thanks for mentioning that the CGI problems being an overworked and understaffed crew and not just throwing shade at people that probably did the best with what they had.
My hope is she gets clobbered and humbled to the point of realizing how hypogritical she has been at times. She makes good points, but then says some really questionable things
Because the people in the MCU hired a bunch of awful people who pretend they like comic books but in reality, they don't care about the source material and want to ruin everything
The "show writers" know better than we do, they know better than Tolkien, they know better than Stan Lee, they know better than George Lucas that's why they wrote and created these legendary iconic characters and stories..... oh wait, no they didn't.
The only time I truly laughed was in episode 2 when she’s talking to Bruce on the phone about defending the abomination and Bruce says “it’s fine, I was a whole different person back then, literally”
This show could have been so much better if she-hulk simply acknowledged Bruce's anguish and trauma, and simply stated she didn't want to end up like him. Instead of comparing her measly amount of pain to his, this would have worked much better.
@@leeboi222 you know they could have even handled that better, for one they could have saved the whole being whistled at moment for when she got fired. And goes on a drunk drinking spree and gets whistled at at night, in advanced on by a group of guys, and then she turns to She-Hulk and beats the hell out of them, then it's all over the news that She hulk is on the rampage just like hope, that would spark interesting controversy and a possible plot line. But no they just had to do something cheesy, it's so annoying how women are being represented to such poor extents. Just lazy writing all around.
@@lightningpenguin8937 you're completely right, if Bruce gave her a pissed off look after she finished venting, and she utterly starts to apologize, that would have saved the moments completely. As she would realize that what she said was illogical, but apparently not. This is so disappointing, so close to actually being good without all this unnecessary virtue signaling.
I'm pretty sure her rant against Bruce was the writers explaining how she differs from Hulk but instead of showing that through character development and well written scenes, they just have her say it outright. For example, the reason she's so much smaller than the Hulk is because she isn't so traumatized like Bruce is so her emotions aren't as strong. They could show this by having her lose control and get bigger, or unknowingly de-transform when she lets her guard down with someone she loves. I'm not even a writer, those are straight from the comics.
@@literal_otaku The fact still remains that in the MCU itself during Avengers, Bruce tells the story of how he tried to commit suicide by eating a bullet only for the Hulk to stop it after he pulled the trigger.
If i remember correctly someone did say that she loved being she hulk so going by the lines of "why would i ever want to turn back" would also work too.
The funny part is that she rants visibly angrily at Bruce at being "better" at controlling anger than him while he's completely calm lmao Edit: I gave an indifferent response before, mostly because I didn't feel like arguing, but since this thread has popped into my notifs again, I think I wanna take a second to point out to the replies that, no, this is indeed terrible writing. It doesn't prove anything that she can transform back after getting angry and turning into She Hulk when her cousin is RIGHT THERE in front of her calm _and_ transformed at the same time. And even if it's the "point," what kind of stupid point is it? "To demonstrate my self-control I will deliberately lose control of my temper and _then_ calm myself down instead of just staying calm to begin with"? Guess there's no point in saying this now though, given that _the show itself_ has done an adequate enough job at this point of shutting up anyone defending the show's writing, but I still felt like putting it out there.
right. the unintentional meta-irony in this show at like TLJ levels. "Hubris" indeed. Or here "Ah dialectic eh? Wow she said the word dialectic twice in the same scene and the scene wasn't even about the word dialectic."
Ever since Endgame, it seems like the writers and directors started focusing far more on quips and who can out-troll who faster, especially during action scenes, and just let the actual writing for character development and plot fall to the wayside. I recently rewatched Ironman and the writing felt like such a breath of fresh air from all of this recent mid-tier tripe
To be fair, even in Endgame it was like that, with all the goofy time travel hijinks. It was carried hard by it's final battle and the ending but even then the writing was noticeably declining with it's consistency, and as Phase 4 started it just became more noticeable with them tanking their already established characters and then bringing in new ones so far removed from their comic counterparts that they just feel like impostors wearing the skin of already beloved characters. Some changes can be good for a cohesive universe and for the sake of better writing, but they just take the character's appearance and pick and choose parts of their backstory and then ignore what actually made those characters iconic. Most of the time it's for lame jokes and cringe-inducing comedy, or just ham-fisted dialogue that doesn't actually speak on an issue because of how poorly it's done and instead it comes across like it's pandering.

as a big marvel fan the last few marvel projects have broke my heart. these are characters with a ton of potential and it sucks when i see things like this
True but a much smaller TH-camr named heelzvsbabyface has done this with Shehulk, Resident evil, and Batwoman. He's more hardened than a Vietnam vet at this point
I loved the MCU for its over-the-top action scenes but my biggest pet peeve has always been the jokes they put in serious moments. Now they made it into a full comedy show.
I mean, yeah its annoying but at some point you gotta realize that some of these shows are made for 12 year olds. So far Thats been apparent with ms marvel and she hulk. I personally want to watch everything new they release, so i can judge for my self if stuff is good or not, but if you don’t think its worth it for you, then don’t put yourself through that torture 😂😂
The biggest crime of this show is distorting She Hulk into the Opposite of what she was in the comics: She went from confident and fun to whiny and insecure. Despite being a lawyer, she never takes basic legal actions (like suing her law firm after firing her over nothing). She gets upset over having to be She Hulk at work, but in the comics she was happy to be Green 24/7. Jen and She Hulk are supposed to have different personalities, but in the show she just changes size...
The problem is that the show creators, like many other shows that try to make women empowered, spend way too much time trying to push that narrative rather than just making a good show. I get the point that people go for with something like this, but simply having a female protagonist in a good light such as it was in the comics is plenty and achieves so much more than "oh look I can do what you can do but better."
It's almost like disney is to cheap to have her be in full cgi mode 24/7. Wonder why they won't just paint the actress in fullbody green paint instead.
@@phoenixlawson if by confidence you mean twerking like a 12 year old tiktoker and whining about being catcalled by men. Then that's some posteriffic kind of textbook confidence out there. Compared to her comicbook counterpart and her appearances in hulk animated series and the 2000's fantastic four cartoon this was a complete souless downgrade to her character.
Bruce who's father killed his mother in front of him and tried to kill him before he was even 5 then developed BPD to cope, got beaten by bullies his whole life, and is unintentionally responsible for hundreds if not thousands of deaths because of the personality he developed because of all that trauma: Hey Jenn, you gotta make sure you don't get mad now. Jenn: I've been cat-called you don't know my pain!
lol she never said she had it worse. actually everything here you described just explains even better why shes able to control her emotions better. Nowhere near the level of trauma as Bruce.
@@zackglickert4495 If you look into the hulk comics there are many iterations/personalities of hulk. It’s a pretty cool idea and makes for dynamic storytelling.

I'm actually starting to think these shows have as the main goal to make the the most amount of people against feminism as possible
I mean we do see insecure feminists similar to that these days in mainstream media and internet as well, so I feel these kinda modern day series portray the same similar things we see regularly and unsurprisingly people don't like it. Most of the people ain't delusional, hatred agenda driven,insecure like a modern day feminist.
@@sree3650 yeah I'm actually for a lot of things she hulk advocated for but even I fucking hate those ideas when she says them. It would be a genius play by an opposing political party or the elites.
@@sree3650 yeah but how did this level of incompetence make it past any type of screening. Like seriously degrading a suicide survivors struggles because men cat call and underestimate her? I honestly think its a ploy to make people hate women and feminism.

just to gie you a heads up charlie, the way vfx is done in the industry is by hiring a digital effects company who works on multiple films at the same time. The 2 things they are doing to ruin quality is shortening the timetable (so the studio doesn't have time to do the things that make the movies standout) and cutting funding between many different projects so the different companies take charge of entire shows. The reason that is an issue is most companies specialize in a specific type of effect (water sim, smoke, destruction, character animation.....) and when you give a whole project to one studio will have the gaps in their expertise show
Yeah I always tell people when it comes to animation and vfx it’s like 8-10 different studios that work on different segments of the same show/movie.. learned that while watching a break down of DBZ fights and how the Super Vegeta vs Perfect Cell fight has different art styles and animations throughout, highlighting which director and animator made each part..🤙🏽
The shapeshifter tricking a guy into dating her under the pretense of being a famous celebrity is actually a really clever idea. I love stuff like this in superhero fiction. But it definitely sounds like the execution was lacking
It's just a sideplot because they needed the show to be long enough. Idk why they decided to have a sideplot that never gets established and then gets thrown away at the end of the episode otherwise.

Didn't Downey also not resign with them? They also realized that people found the joke moments funny so they doubled down on it without realizing why it works in the first place. It's good to get people a bit off the suspense for a bit as a break but when you do it during times it's suppose to be serious and shit is happening, it just takes you out. Literally that Poe scene in Star Wars The Last Jedi is a good example. You are one X-Wing facing a whole fleet and need to get your people to escape. The First Order is this new huge threat and they literally get defensive and angry over Poe's insults to them... Like seriously guys?
That "mansplaining" line could have worked with everyone BUT Bruce, because: 1. All he had suffered make you feel more sympathy for him than her. 2. She came out as self centered. This is why I like Wonder Woman more, she's sympathetic & nice when she had to, but confrontational at calling you at (specially Batman) when she has to.
Dude...wasn't this the point? didn't you see Bruce's face in this scene? he literally is the face of the "viewers" in this scene because she immidiatelly turns green when she says it. It literally shows that what she said is not true and Bruce knows it, he's like fucking Yoda in this scene trying to teach Luke. I'm really like someone who gives this show a meh/10 but it seems you're all a bit blinded by the "feminism" to the point you don't understand a simple scene where the main character is actually shown as flawed.
Yes she came out as self centered, so? she came out self centered as she was supposed to come out, it was a scene that was critical OF HER! yes she might be cat called, she might have problems which women have but the scene shows that doesn't mean automatically she is better at controlling anger than Bruce and that she is flawed.
Charlie makes such a good point about Marvel and it’s comedy, but the even bigger problem is that it’s done so well (in the box office) that a lot of other movies are also taking the exact same formula of comedy. It’s like watching the same movie no matter who makes it.
Honestly, I feel bad for Bruce. But now I'm glad that the Iron Man character is over in Marvel and Robert Downey Jr. has refused to play this role any further. Otherwise, these people would have turned him into a joke as well.

She-Hulk deserves so much better than this puddle-deep writing. Jen's supposed to be a loser; a booksmart, physically unassuming lawyer with little self-confidence. Guys aren’t interested in her and she doesn’t have friends. Then she becomes She-Hulk, this sexy, powerful, popular, funny version of herself. Where Bruce sees the Hulk as a curse, Jen sees She-Hulk as a blessing. If Hulk is the embodiment of anger, She-Hulk is the embodiment of self-esteem. Bruce wants to cure himself of the Hulk and stop transforming. Jen lives her day-to-day life as She-Hulk often refusing to transform back. She’s not only battling super villains but also her own confidence and self-worth. The show doesn't explore any of this because she has to be a girlboss. She can only do right and they insert a supporting cast whose entire role is to call her awesome. She has no motivations, no personal struggles, no flaws, no character development, she's just the self-insert power fantasy of a weak writer.

@@trtvitor1385 More like the hype was at an all time high… you literally just proved my point.
Superhero movies in general were just starting to pick up and it’s because of the “originality” that the hype was built so high. After so many years of the same stuff, it starts to become “unoriginal” despite it still being plenty original.
The movies really haven’t changed that much. They are all still the same quality. It’s the viewers attentiveness that has changed. It’s the fact we’ve had these sameish superhero movies for multiple years now.
The whole genre as a whole is losing its hype due to repetitiveness, and even then Marvel has done its best to change what it means to be a superhero movie or show and people have still turned it down.
I promise you, it’s the hype all the way. The hype is dropping as people start to pick up on the fact that each movie is almost the same, like most superhero movies. The genre is losing its touch.

And I'm sure I'm not the only girl who feels something like that.
Hey; I think you make a good point. Plenty of female characters from fiction are awesome but they were so good because they had complexity. A good example is ripley from aliens.

I find it both funny, and infuriating that She's bragging about how much better she is at controlling her anger than him, while she immediately loses her shit completely enraged at this bit of honest advice, and he's just standing there calmly. Yeah you're really showing how much calmer and more in control you are, B.
Well I feel like that was the point of that sequence though. It's meant to show how wrong she is about her anger. She's arrogant, and her arrogance blinds her. What she's saying and what she's doing doesn't line up and makes her a flawed person which is good for drama and interesting stories. The issue is she never has to face this side of herself or change at all over the course of the show. If they had developed her character more and explored these flaws it would have actually been good in my opinion.
It _was_ the point of the sequence and the show does explore it. Bruce tells Jen to find balance with she hulk, she ignores him and it comes back to bite her for the next 4 episodes. The show actually does a good job in showing that Jens anger and brushing off Bruce was meant to be a character flaw that masked other issues which are explored later in the series but it still allowed for her to be correct in one way: women do experience harrassment and that will factor into her life as she hulk. The comics actually explore this: the idea that your emotional life before becoming a hulk will affect your experiences as the hulk. The Hulk in the comics has a traumatic childhood and that's why he has a separate Hulk identity and is affected by anger as a Hulk. Jen meanwhile is affected by anxiety and never had a separate identity even in the comics. The MCU takes a different approach since they don't delve into the Hulk's backstory (which isn't she-hulks fault. The character existed in the MCU way before she hulk and Marvel ddon'thave full rights to him so they can't do as much with his story) but the core idea is the same: pre-hulk experiences affect life as a hulk.

This is why I enjoyed the Hawk Eye series. It’s got a leading female protagonist who doesn’t force women empowerment down your throat compared to She Hulk
We aren’t given this “I’m a female, I’m just as strong as a man. I have no enemies because I’m better than you and I’m bad ass because my whole personality revolves around my ironic narcissistic traits”
Instead we’re given an average female who think she’s the equivalent of her favourite hero. This had her think she can save the day, but succumbs to the realisation she’s gotten herself into something vastly bigger than her.
We’re shown she thinks she’s the equivalent of an avenger, but in the fights we’re shown otherwise. As the story progresses, she succumbs to the acceptance that what she did was wrong and that she’s genuinely sorry for bringing Hawk Eye back into the underground world when all he wanted was to enjoy Christmas with his family
She’s shown time and time again she’s strong and that she uses her surroundings to overcome people who are stronger than her.
Which is why I love the show. Imo, they truly did a great job for a female protagonist. You aren’t eye rolling at forced woman empowerment because it doesn’t exist in the show.
We’ve got a leading female protagonist who actually develops into a better woman over time who has her strong suits, but also has her flaws. That’s why I love the show, and that’s why it’s vastly more enjoyable.
Where as She Hulk is completely different. There’s no character development, there’s no story. One moment something happens and for the rest of the season it doesn’t show again: One thing which truly infuriated me is the ending. Why the 4th wall break? Why remove the only interesting plot of the show? Now you’re back to a bland show and it’s ultimately why I’m glad they don’t have plans for another season
Hawkeye is imo the best of the shows, the mentor-protege dynamic actually works and it somehow made Clint getting home in time for Christmas stakes you could care about. As it stands, if Young Avengers does happen then Kate will have to carry it.
I like when She-Hulk said her iconic line: “It’s Shulking time!” And they started twerking while everyone else stood up and clapped for their bravery.

The worst thing about the whole Jen and Bruce relationship in the show. Is that in the comics their relationship is pretty open and they're extremely friendly to one another. They open up to each other and in one famous storyline She-hulk thanks him for giving her powers. Up to that point he hated himself for it. He knew what he was doing was going to possibly cause her pain in the future. Whether that be people out to kill her or she lost control and killed people. He didn't want to turn his cousin into what he considered a monster but he had no choice as it was do it or watch her die from blood loss. Hearing those words from her mouth helped him. She also clearly knows about super heroes and what has happened to him. You would think she would be a little bit nicer to a guy who has risked his life multiple times to save the world from enemies and his world breaking alter ego.
Thats fucked up
1, show ≠ comic. 2, jen and bruce are two completely different people as stated in the show. i'm not exactly gonna be nice when something life changing has happened to me that threatens the life i worked hard to build and that i know for a fact will come to bite me in the ass later. jen is a human like everyone else and reacts accordingly. i think it would've been very out of character if she was super sweet and gung-ho and not going through a literal crisis because her world just got flipped upside down.
@@YoruSora1 I reported your comment
@@dressedmaniac you want a cookie?
@@YoruSora1 can I have one?
I just want to remind people, that in the comics, the relationship between She-Hulk and Hulk was one of the most wholesome, yet tragic, character dynamics they had.
Hulk/Bruce both constantly felt guilty for pushing their cousin into their world by giving her their blood, even though they did it to save her life, and She-Hulk constantly feels guilty about how she got the better deal. She can transform at will, and doesn’t have an alter-ego. She got such a better deal than Bruce, and that constantly makes her feel guilty. And because of that, in most incarnations, She-Hulk uses her lawyer skills to keep the government off of her cousin’s back.
But it wasn’t all doom and gloom, she was still an upbeat character, she was confident in her body, and she loved the attention she got for her sexy green muscles. She was the original Deadpool, constantly making fun of the reader for only picking up her comics because she was only wearing a towel on the front cover.
It wasn’t until very recently, where the comics, and, seemingly Marvel at large, decided to just make the character far more bitter. Like, just writing the character from a place of bitterness.
And it sucks, because that bitterness that was never part of this iconic character, is now the only thing that the majority of people, will ever associate her with. Both Hulk and She-Hulk deserved so much better, because they ARE better, they’ve been better.
Now look at them. She-Hulk calls her own cousin a whiny b*tch baby, while twerking. Utterly shameful.
It's almost as if the writers didn't like, or perhaps even hated the original She-Hulk. They probably see the old She Hulk as a symbol of misogyny, a female character over sexualized by men, a female character created by sexist pigs, etc. etc. Ad nauseam. Any number of dumb reasons.
@@mochalavender9398 their view is kinda contradicting too, if they dont like the old she-hulk because of "her male gaze design" then why have people commented about her body and have her twerk too ?
@Angelina Callahan that could be true too. Although, the Old she hulk used to make fun of people buying her comics, saying they only buy her comics because she's hot. She was sexualized back in the day too, just as she is now. But that seems like the only aspect of her character they're keeping somewhat similar to the original.
I would pin this if I could, 100000% agree
I feel like she's not as bitter as you say she is in the show, but maybe I'm just watching and interpreting it differently, idk.
I think Jen talking back to Bruce and trying to say how she controls her anger better is mostly just her showing that she doesn't have any actual control over herself.
"You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain"

meh, no
This year has been a rough year for marvel. I’d imagine Stan lee would cry if he could see where his legacy has gone.
I loved the scene where She-Hulk visits Saul Goodman in prison and lectures him about how hard it is to be a lawyer.
and then morbius broke out of the prison and said it's morbin time
And then street sharks came out and shredded mad guitar on their roller blades, while the Dinovengers twerked.
And then Vin Diesel rides Lightning McQueen and bust through the walls to free Kool Aid Man
And then when doomguy boxed charizard, that scene was gold
And then Gandalf wouldn't let Andrew Tate pass so micheal Jackson called Shia lebouf to freestyle battle a honey badger.
Such an inspiring character. I'm so glad the kids will understand that being independent means being a selfish asshole that thinks you are better than everyone else.
Also one thing that bugs me is that she hulk always talks about how hard it is in her awful life but never shows her experiencing any difficulty in the show and if they did it could make her selfish side more believable but it just makes her a tool
That's exactly how feminists want women to be because they want something real to cry about when men turn away from this new variation.
Welcome to MCU new generation protagonist:
Make the women protagonist as selfish asshole who thinks they're right until someone has to say they're wrong in the end like Wanda Maximoff and She-Hulk while making the men protagonist suffering so much through trauma and insecurities like Marc Spector (Moon Knight), Shang-Chi, Bucky, Sam, Hawkeye and many more.
@@margarethmichelina5146 and the sad thing is its not impossible to write a good female character take the clone wars for instance there are dozens of brilliantly written characters from heroes to villains to in-between and honestly it's a shame that the MCU isn't having the same sort of love now the shows feel like they are trojan horses they are only there to set up another character it's sort of like a pyramid scheme in a franchise one character introduces two more and so on
That's how Americans act.
We’re in an age where people can create video games, and have never been a gamer. And people can write for comic book shows and never read the comics.

Is hope so but let’s face it the writing staff isn’t that smart. I had a crazy idea like that though maybe she can’t really control the she hulk since everytime she says one thing she does the opposite. Like practically killing some guys over “hey what’s your name?”
i thought something similar when i watched loki ep 3 when loki was acting like a dumbass. i thought he is acting or creating this illusion in female loki's mind and has some kind of plan for later on. But turned out, he was an actual idiot and had no idea what he was doing at all. on the top of that, he was ruining whatever the plan they already had smh.
I would hope so as well but usually these shows are 6-8 episodes long. She would have had something happen by now to give her a flaw or some character development.

Its sad because in their attempt to write a strong female protagonist they fell into the crux of writing one who relies solely on a male (Bruce) to “one-up” all the time. Without Bruce her character is essentially nothing which is sad because it could be so much more but the way she hulk is written is entirely reliant on male character who she has to prove she is better? than for no reason.

These are the only ways in which she's better:
Her blood because of genetics
Her control
Her flexibility
Her lawyer profession which isn't being better, just different

I like how the activist script writers have the exact same view of "powerful women" that misogynists do. Hyper aggressive and hostile. I feel like the two sides feed into each other to create an exaggerated worldview that they both believe in, but just disagree on whether it's good or bad.

It doesn't matter where it was going plot wise to be honest; by the last episode the writer's lost faith in their own plot and had their "empowered woman" she hulk jump out of her own show into the real world and pull a Karen by asking to speak to the manager. She then proceeded to use her power of entitlement to have him wrap everything up the way she thought she deserved to have it happen.

I've had to explain to people who haven't read the comics. Jen is actually really cool. I don't know why they would write her like this.
I bet she was. She and other amazing female characters were made in a peaceful time where wokeness and dumb men weren't a daily experience.
My hope is she gets clobbered and humbled to the point of realizing how hypogritical she has been at times. She makes good points, but then says some really questionable things

This show could have been so much better if she-hulk simply acknowledged Bruce's anguish and trauma, and simply stated she didn't want to end up like him. Instead of comparing her measly amount of pain to his, this would have worked much better.
The comparing thing could have worked if it was just venting. Kind of like a brainfart moment. What they do after would be the important part.

But no they just had to do something cheesy, it's so annoying how women are being represented to such poor extents. Just lazy writing all around.
@@lightningpenguin8937 you're completely right, if Bruce gave her a pissed off look after she finished venting, and she utterly starts to apologize, that would have saved the moments completely. As she would realize that what she said was illogical, but apparently not. This is so disappointing, so close to actually being good without all this unnecessary virtue signaling.
I'm pretty sure her rant against Bruce was the writers explaining how she differs from Hulk but instead of showing that through character development and well written scenes, they just have her say it outright. For example, the reason she's so much smaller than the Hulk is because she isn't so traumatized like Bruce is so her emotions aren't as strong. They could show this by having her lose control and get bigger, or unknowingly de-transform when she lets her guard down with someone she loves. I'm not even a writer, those are straight from the comics.
MCU has differences from the comics of course.

If i remember correctly someone did say that she loved being she hulk so going by the lines of "why would i ever want to turn back" would also work too.
The funny part is that she rants visibly angrily at Bruce at being "better" at controlling anger than him while he's completely calm lmao
Edit: I gave an indifferent response before, mostly because I didn't feel like arguing, but since this thread has popped into my notifs again, I think I wanna take a second to point out to the replies that, no, this is indeed terrible writing. It doesn't prove anything that she can transform back after getting angry and turning into She Hulk when her cousin is RIGHT THERE in front of her calm _and_ transformed at the same time. And even if it's the "point," what kind of stupid point is it? "To demonstrate my self-control I will deliberately lose control of my temper and _then_ calm myself down instead of just staying calm to begin with"?
Guess there's no point in saying this now though, given that _the show itself_ has done an adequate enough job at this point of shutting up anyone defending the show's writing, but I still felt like putting it out there.
right. the unintentional meta-irony in this show at like TLJ levels. "Hubris" indeed. Or here "Ah dialectic eh? Wow she said the word dialectic twice in the same scene and the scene wasn't even about the word dialectic."

Bruh he guessed the ending with the MCU algorithm
Ever since Endgame, it seems like the writers and directors started focusing far more on quips and who can out-troll who faster, especially during action scenes, and just let the actual writing for character development and plot fall to the wayside. I recently rewatched Ironman and the writing felt like such a breath of fresh air from all of this recent mid-tier tripe
To be fair, even in Endgame it was like that, with all the goofy time travel hijinks. It was carried hard by it's final battle and the ending but even then the writing was noticeably declining with it's consistency, and as Phase 4 started it just became more noticeable with them tanking their already established characters and then bringing in new ones so far removed from their comic counterparts that they just feel like impostors wearing the skin of already beloved characters. Some changes can be good for a cohesive universe and for the sake of better writing, but they just take the character's appearance and pick and choose parts of their backstory and then ignore what actually made those characters iconic. Most of the time it's for lame jokes and cringe-inducing comedy, or just ham-fisted dialogue that doesn't actually speak on an issue because of how poorly it's done and instead it comes across like it's pandering.
I think if you go back it kinda started with Ant-Man and the first the first guardians of the galaxy movie

True but a much smaller TH-camr named heelzvsbabyface has done this with Shehulk, Resident evil, and Batwoman. He's more hardened than a Vietnam vet at this point
@@ShrexyGuy ah a man of culture. I'm trying to send AZ to the psyche ward and requesting supergirl
Yep
I loved the MCU for its over-the-top action scenes but my biggest pet peeve has always been the jokes they put in serious moments. Now they made it into a full comedy show.
I mean, yeah its annoying but at some point you gotta realize that some of these shows are made for 12 year olds. So far Thats been apparent with ms marvel and she hulk. I personally want to watch everything new they release, so i can judge for my self if stuff is good or not, but if you don’t think its worth it for you, then don’t put yourself through that torture 😂😂
im going to DC now
She Hulk has been around for 40 years as a law comedy series
It's litteraly a comedy show. What's wrong with a comedy show? Y'all shit on stuff for no reason
Marvel should embrace the comedy like they sorta did in Wandavision with canned laugh tracks.
The biggest crime of this show is distorting She Hulk into the Opposite of what she was in the comics:
She went from confident and fun to whiny and insecure. Despite being a lawyer, she never takes basic legal actions (like suing her law firm after firing her over nothing). She gets upset over having to be She Hulk at work, but in the comics she was happy to be Green 24/7. Jen and She Hulk are supposed to have different personalities, but in the show she just changes size...
The problem is that the show creators, like many other shows that try to make women empowered, spend way too much time trying to push that narrative rather than just making a good show. I get the point that people go for with something like this, but simply having a female protagonist in a good light such as it was in the comics is plenty and achieves so much more than "oh look I can do what you can do but better."
Jesus is coming repent now h
How exactly is she whiny and insecure? In this show she shows nothing but confidence.
It's almost like disney is to cheap to have her be in full cgi mode 24/7. Wonder why they won't just paint the actress in fullbody green paint instead.
@@phoenixlawson if by confidence you mean twerking like a 12 year old tiktoker and whining about being catcalled by men. Then that's some posteriffic kind of textbook confidence out there.
Compared to her comicbook counterpart and her appearances in hulk animated series and the 2000's fantastic four cartoon this was a complete souless downgrade to her character.
You was spot on with that robot analogy.
The only character in the mcu right now that should be quippy, funny etc. is spider-man since he has always been portrayed as such in all his media.
Thor and Iron Man are okay like that too
@@destroyerzh Thor was taken to far though. Thor was better as an ignorant god who was serious but did things earthlings didn’t do
She Hulk has always been a comedic character
See ya Chump
Spoken like somebody that isn't a She-Hulk fan.
Bruce who's father killed his mother in front of him and tried to kill him before he was even 5 then developed BPD to cope, got beaten by bullies his whole life, and is unintentionally responsible for hundreds if not thousands of deaths because of the personality he developed because of all that trauma: Hey Jenn, you gotta make sure you don't get mad now.
Jenn: I've been cat-called you don't know my pain!
bruh idk why but that made me realize that bruce has multi personalities
lol she never said she had it worse. actually everything here you described just explains even better why shes able to control her emotions better. Nowhere near the level of trauma as Bruce.
@@Professorlicme8 She didn't say it, but she implied it pretty heavily.
@@zackglickert4495 If you look into the hulk comics there are many iterations/personalities of hulk. It’s a pretty cool idea and makes for dynamic storytelling.
@@Professorlicme8 That's not what she meant tho. She gave him examples of her controlling her emotions in these situations and acted like that compared to Bruce. Cmon you know what she really meant
I'm actually starting to think these shows have as the main goal to make the the most amount of people against feminism as possible
DIVIDE THE PUBLIC 💯🙏
I mean we do see insecure feminists similar to that these days in mainstream media and internet as well, so I feel these kinda modern day series portray the same similar things we see regularly and unsurprisingly people don't like it. Most of the people ain't delusional, hatred agenda driven,insecure like a modern day feminist.
@@sree3650 yeah I'm actually for a lot of things she hulk advocated for but even I fucking hate those ideas when she says them. It would be a genius play by an opposing political party or the elites.
@@sree3650 yeah but how did this level of incompetence make it past any type of screening. Like seriously degrading a suicide survivors struggles because men cat call and underestimate her? I honestly think its a ploy to make people hate women and feminism.
@@jj_ai382 I would have believed it was some kind of a secret ploy as well, but then when I see these actors and writers interwiew clips I realise they are so proud of their final products, So yeah it's just them projecting their insecurities and inferiority complex.
Micro Aggressions > Trauma , PTSD , Death of his love , Suicide attempt.
just to gie you a heads up charlie, the way vfx is done in the industry is by hiring a digital effects company who works on multiple films at the same time. The 2 things they are doing to ruin quality is shortening the timetable (so the studio doesn't have time to do the things that make the movies standout) and cutting funding between many different projects so the different companies take charge of entire shows. The reason that is an issue is most companies specialize in a specific type of effect (water sim, smoke, destruction, character animation.....) and when you give a whole project to one studio will have the gaps in their expertise show
Yeah I always tell people when it comes to animation and vfx it’s like 8-10 different studios that work on different segments of the same show/movie.. learned that while watching a break down of DBZ fights and how the Super Vegeta vs Perfect Cell fight has different art styles and animations throughout, highlighting which director and animator made each part..🤙🏽
His point still stands that the employees where probably rushed, and put into crunch asap to get the vfx done as soon as possible. :/
@@LinkiePup I'm not disagreeing, I'm just highlighting that these people are not overworked they are just being utilized poorly
@@reallyhimongod yeah I just had to do a deep dive on vfx for a class and create some 3d/2d animations with different methods
@@reallyhimongod the biggest thing I learned was that it is impossible to be amazing at all of it 💀💀
The best part of the She Hulk episodes is that they end.
Are you sure about that?
@@AudioGardenSlave123 yes
@@AudioGardenSlave123 yeah he is
@@AudioGardenSlave123 pretty much
@@thomasproductionclub2133 How do you know they end?
The shapeshifter tricking a guy into dating her under the pretense of being a famous celebrity is actually a really clever idea. I love stuff like this in superhero fiction. But it definitely sounds like the execution was lacking
It's just a sideplot because they needed the show to be long enough. Idk why they decided to have a sideplot that never gets established and then gets thrown away at the end of the episode otherwise.
@@pi6141 it kinda had a climax. It just sucked. Plus it is starting to feel like a sitcom. I hate it.
and if they did it im pretty sure there may actually be a case of rape by deception
@@jakewulgar it is supposed to be sitcom but doesnt feel like it cuz its just as cringe-funny as any another marvel product
it was pretty funny lmao, she hulk is pretty good in general
She-hulk's biggest transgression was bringing down Daredevil alongside her.
This show just makes me want to read the comic books because apparently those are actually good
Yoo fam, I’m a small content creator, and I make a variety of entertaining reactions, vlogs, and a range Of other content and I’m still working on quality but I guarantee you will find something you will enjoy!🙏🏾💯
She hulk is also a C to D tier character nothing much to read
@@DarthRambo007 no way, She Hulk has great comic runs. This show is just ass.
Sensational She Hulk by John Byrne. If you want Deadpool minus gore.
From what I’ve seen, she hulk is a really good person in the comics and actually understands where bruce comes from and why his trauma damaged him.
They're just injecting the Tony Stark persona into everyone because he was the most loved character, and they killed him off.
Except moonknight
@@furymonger5395 I agree, he has his own personalit(ies) lol
Persona reference??!?!!?!?!?!!!!! 😃
@@ivangordienko8081 You do realize that "persona" is an actual word, right?
Didn't Downey also not resign with them? They also realized that people found the joke moments funny so they doubled down on it without realizing why it works in the first place. It's good to get people a bit off the suspense for a bit as a break but when you do it during times it's suppose to be serious and shit is happening, it just takes you out.
Literally that Poe scene in Star Wars The Last Jedi is a good example. You are one X-Wing facing a whole fleet and need to get your people to escape. The First Order is this new huge threat and they literally get defensive and angry over Poe's insults to them... Like seriously guys?
That "mansplaining" line could have worked with everyone BUT Bruce, because: 1. All he had suffered make you feel more sympathy for him than her. 2. She came out as self centered. This is why I like Wonder Woman more, she's sympathetic & nice when she had to, but confrontational at calling you at (specially Batman) when she has to.
Dude...wasn't this the point? didn't you see Bruce's face in this scene? he literally is the face of the "viewers" in this scene because she immidiatelly turns green when she says it. It literally shows that what she said is not true and Bruce knows it, he's like fucking Yoda in this scene trying to teach Luke. I'm really like someone who gives this show a meh/10 but it seems you're all a bit blinded by the "feminism" to the point you don't understand a simple scene where the main character is actually shown as flawed.
Yes she came out as self centered, so? she came out self centered as she was supposed to come out, it was a scene that was critical OF HER! yes she might be cat called, she might have problems which women have but the scene shows that doesn't mean automatically she is better at controlling anger than Bruce and that she is flawed.
Wonder Woman 1984 was trash. How do you make an action movie with no action? WW1984 pulls it off and it's trash.
@@jerzyhaftka4915 After that didn't she literally said she transformed on purpose and is actually in control the whole time just to prove a point?
@@KingRaiders Also, they had Wonder Woman rape a guy.
Charlie makes such a good point about Marvel and it’s comedy, but the even bigger problem is that it’s done so well (in the box office) that a lot of other movies are also taking the exact same formula of comedy. It’s like watching the same movie no matter who makes it.
