Disney fricked up secret invasion

So secret invasion is one of the more interesting storylines that came out of marvel comics in the past 3 decades. Currently they got a bunch of pros and cons for how they have set it up for the cinematic universe.

Pro :

  1. It has Nick Fury in it.

  2. It has a serious tone.

  3. It has got black people but they are actually good actors.

  4. It's secret wars which is an actually interesting setup.

Con:

  1. They made it into a TV series instead of building it up across multiple movies in the background which would have worked way better for secret wars setup.

  2. Lack of medium big value actors. I respect Samuel L. Jackson playing Nick Fury, but your show isn't gonna sell if the biggest actor Nick gets to work with is Iron Man's sidekick. Please at least have Bucky in it, or Captain Marvel.

  3. The trailer background audio is shit. It makes it feel like listening in on a B grade TV show. Get better trailer background music makers.

  4. Nick was not wearing his eyepatch. It's iconic. Nobody wants to look at a dead eye all show even in 2022. Trust me on this bro.

  5. The budget is likely smaller than that for Loki, you can tell the visual effects don't feel flashy and powerful enough. It's good quality if you were still living in 2010-2015 maybe, but otherwise no. However we can give leeway here as it's definitely better than CW visual effects and nowhere does it look actually bad or unrealistic, it's just that we have seen better by now.

  6. Nick Fury led show should be a thriller with a whole lot of secrets and espionage and stuff. The vibes from the first trailer felt more like an action movie equivalent pretending to be spy show equivalent. Like, of course we want the action, but it felt like they are going to be giving away too much of the character process and secrets. Maybe it's just my pessimism bias hopefully.

Conclusion - It will likely be a 70-86% metacritic score show. I don't see a 9/10 though. Could be wrong though, after all we only got one trailer so far.

Loki may have set the bar too high for other marvel shows to keep up. Funny that.

Meh, this is the first Marvel show I'd consider watching. Probably due to the lack of actual capeshit stuff. I guess once I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel for things to binge on, I'll put it on.
