    As someone studying law, by my understanding, there is essentially no way that an attorney with a beneficial relationship with a defendant could then represent a plaintiff against that defendant in litigation. It's a blatant conflict of interest.

    • @TheLittlePlatoon
      @TheLittlePlatoon  2 ปีที่แล้ว +259

      I think there’s a line about her signing a “conflict waiver” - as she had to do with Abomination. It’s essentially a contrivance license though because the writers essentially gave her the clients she’d be least suitable to represent and then had to find some way of having her represent them anyway.

    • @Kody742
      @Kody742 2 ปีที่แล้ว +109

      @@TheLittlePlatoon Absolutely. The waiver would cover the plaintiff based on what I read, but she would likely have to survive an objection from the defendant. However, maybe they canonically declined to do so bc she provides shit counsel anyway. Either way, she would probably already be buried in sanctions and their depiction of the legal system is laughable at best.

    • @BWMagus
      @BWMagus 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I don't see how it's a conflict of interest--it in no way benefits her "beneficial relationship" to represent the plaintiff. It actively HARMS said relationship, so the only person who should care would be, well, the plaintiff, who should be objecting, or could sue after losing that his counsel didn't do her job properly due to said conflict of interest.

    • @Kody742
      @Kody742 2 ปีที่แล้ว +64

      ​@@BWMagus Conflicts of interest are very strict within the law to my knowledge. Relations with an adverse party would likely bring up a conflict of interest for both sides. There is also the argument that she possesses some personal knowledge of the defendant's business which is what the case arose out of. Where a relationship exists there could be a motion to disqualify. Evidence of her informally approaching the defendant about litigation prior to taking the client and having an argument about the lawsuit would be relatively serious imo. In fact, depending on the content of that conversation with the designer (I'm not actually going to watch the show) she could be in violation of ABA rules of professional conduct 4.2 or 4.3.

      @@BWMagus I think it does show a conflict of interest. It is actively against Jen/She Hulk's interest to work against "Homo Mode" in her best capacity. And the fact that she doesn't even wait for him to leave the courtroom after winning the case before begging him to take her back as a client shows it.

    I can't believe they casually and passively repealed the Accords. Civil War was such an important and catastrophic event in the MCU because the split in the Avengers is widely the reason Thanos won. It's also just a really good movie in which the main conflict is completely believable and in character for everyone involved. Then Ree-Hulk spits on it in a throwaway line.

      Yep, this is one of the big reasons for me the MCU died with Endgame, at best I can consider the later spider-man as epilogues. Marvel at least tried given the limitation of live action productions and contracts to make the MCU few like a fully realized word. The Avengers happened and up until phase 3 we were dealing with the ramifications of the Battle of New York. Winter Soldier happens and SHIELD that was the glue that hold everything together died, and it was glorious how Agents of SHIELD explored that. Age of Ultron happens and we get the Sokovia Accords and the falling out of the Avengers, that make the earth vulnerable to Thanos assault. All those thing pale in comparison to the universal shattering event of half of all life in the universe vanishing for five years and them returning. And this doesn't seem to have any long term consequences to the world building besides Loki restarting the multiverse and shit. They could made 10 years of closely related stories about the blip, instead the rushed through it to burn through decades of stories in a few years, like Secret Invasion will be a Disney + show? F**ck that.

      ​@@teateline9659 one of the first lines of dialog between Foggy and Matt in Daredevil is Foggy pointing out how uncanny it is that Matt always seems to hook up with people who are hot, despite being blind. With that said, his characterization in She-Hulk feels more like the hints we get of his character before episode 1 of season 1 of Daredevil. Foggy and him do have back and fourths about his past girlfriends/hookups being trouble and yet always being hot for some reason, but throughout the show the closest we get is his ex electra (I think that's her name, could be a total misattribution though) coming back and them boning once IIRC. In short, it's a flaw that he did have but had clearly already moved past by episode 1 of season 1 of his own show, yet she-hulk rips it back and makes him a complete horn dog for no reason. (which, for the record, while it was insinuated that he had a poor judge of character when it came to beautiful women it was NOT indicated he would hook up with anyone hot on a whim.)

      ​@@liamphibia eeeeeh. One of the first lines of dialog between Foggy and Murdock in his show is that he tends to have a poor judge of character when it comes to beautiful women. (While I wouldn't personally classify Jen as "beautiful", beauty is in the ear of the beholder so lets take that as a given for the purpose of argument.) The idea is that he isn't a very good judge of character, so his past hook ups have largely backfired and cuased issues... however, he was never even insinuated to be a complete horn dog that would hook up with someone night-of and bone. Additionally, while we get retrospective jokes about this history, it's largely something he's apparently grown out of by episode 1 of season 1 of his show. In fact the only hint we get of it, at all, is when one of his exes comes back for some superhero related reason and they briefly hook up again, however in that situation it was her making the advances, not him.
      In other words, the one hookup I can remember him ever having was highly contextual and a result of his past failings coming back to haunt him with pre-existing emotional baggage. While it's never explicitly stated, it's strongly implied that after he put on a mask and started fighting crime he began to settle out.

I realize this would be a difficult concept for her to understand, but it's not about her! It's about the person she's rescuing who IS NOT bullet proof! It's about causing limited property damage when possible, and it's about not accidentally murdering people with your super strength! You'd think as a lawyer she'd understand how serious those crimes are, especially since her persona as She-Hulk is public and everyone knows who she really is, so she can't even hide behind a secret identity.

    She-Hulk somehow manages to destroy the single most important part of the MCU's worldbuilding - the consequences that superpowered individuals would have on the average person. And they managed to do this with She-Hulk being irresponsible and incompetent with her job as a lawyer and a superhero, the complete lack of reaction of the average person when a superpowered individual uses their powers in public (i.e. the elf shapeshifting in an office and courtroom), and the repealing of the Sokovia Accords.

    Dude, if you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have thought you've been doing this for less than a year. The way in which you're being completely blunt about how this show messed up a bunch of things, MCU and Non-MCU related just makes me so happy.
    I honestly thought She-Hulk was going to be a show about Jen accepting her new identity and being happy about it (like in the comics) but instead we got someone who's always whining and complaining about her problems, but does nothing to overcome them. Also, she spends most of the episodes saying that she doesn't want to be She-Hulk, but when that's being taken away from her, she starts complaining again... Like, isn't that what she wanted?
    Also I'm impressed by how most men in the show are just complete douchebags, like this was a love letter to those "I Hate All Men" supporters. (Not to mention that Jen's only looking for someone to sleep with, instead of actually building a healthy relationship, and then thinking about having babies... Wth?)

    In the 2003 Daredevil movie with Ben Affleck, Matt Murdock was heavily implied to be something of a "p*ssy magnet" through conversations with Foggy during the early parts of the film (and in the Director's commentary), it is also shown that he was in a relationship just after the first Daredevil fight sequence in the first act, where we see him get dumped on his answering machine for being emotionally unavailable.
    In the comics, he has had a lot of relationships with a variety of different women ranging from ordinary to extraordinary in both of his professions, some even being villains: Karen Page, Black Widow, Elektra, Typhoid Mary, and Echo to name a few. He was even married once during the Brian Michael Bendis-wordy era of the books. Nothing seriously man-sluty; that was more comics-Tony Starks area of expertise.

Do you need other people to validate your decision or are you trying to turn people against him? Personally, I think he’s awesome. Instead of wishing people would stop watching The Critical Drinker, maybe you should ask yourself why TH-camrs like him got popular in the first place. Hollywood did this to themselves. When Hollywood ignores fans, slanders them, and openly antagonizes them, the fans go elsewhere. Also, it isn’t difficult to pass judgment on these shows before watching them. The people making these shows are actually proud of their own ignorance.

    I cannot go into detail how low we've gone. From fleshed out character arcs, stories, continuity and most of all, passion! It seemed like passion was once a factor when these projects were first announced, something we've never seen come together so well done before on the big screen. But, we, the audience that Disney / Marvel now hates, got them here. We, showed them the support and shoved our money down their gullets. From this, they figured they could do anything, will do anything and we'll keep spending the money. If Rings of Power taught us anything, it's we the fans, have a voice. Instead of a great storyline about mobsters wanting to kill Jennifer / She Hulk like in the comics... we get storylines about Tinder and exposed sex tapes, because that's relatable. The shills will be shills. They will clap like seals. Hopefully, the true fans will denounce this bullshit. I hope they go bankrupt like they've already been creatively. This show is dog shit, it's awful, and it's a fuck you to the audience.

      This is how all things evolve; once they get too much success and bring in too much money, the 'money people' get involved, and the quality obviously degrades in their quest to 'appeal to as many people as possible,' and thus 'make as much money as possible.' This, ironically, kills what was once great and lowers long term profits. I guess short term is all they care about; they'll milk a dead cow until its utters implode

    But if you don't know him, all you can assume is that you just threw a car at a man, who probably doesn't have super powers, who will probably die.
