Ed001 you watching hawkeye?

I am really enjoying it, although all these disney + shows and phase 4 is effectively origin stories. I am on to you Marvel!

In the superhero genre I have always preferred the stories that are more human orientated. I.e. batman or iron-man. So it's nice to get a disney plus show that takes it back and isn't about superpowers or magic.

Plus the character they have brought into the fold is fresh and won't just be a re hash of the hawkeye we are familiar with.

I don't want to say too much for those that haven't seen it but I would definitely recommend if someone is after a lighter TV show. Plus it happens around Christmas, what's not to like?

{Ed001's Note - I haven't had a chance to see it yet. I keep meaning to start watching it but time gets away from me at the moment. Glad to know it is worth a watch though!}

Ed001, you watched loki yet? If so What were your thoughts on it?

Wyred

{Ed001's Note - yes mate, watched it the other day and really enjoyed the idea. Looks like it is going to be fun, if a little odd. I was surprised they revealed who was being hunted so early though.

What about you mate?}

I really enjoyed it, it is a slow start but he is one of the best characters that the MCU has created so plenty of scope for the show.

I am slightly worried that it will get really daft with the multiple timelines, similar to X-Men which has left it unwatchable for me. But they haven’t made many mistakes yet so I’m sure they will get it right. And I’m still not 100% sure of the rules for time I’m the MCU.

I can’t remember where I saw it but there was a list of 10 best actors on these sites, hiddlestone has to be in there for me he’s a cracking actor.

{Ed001's Note - that was on the movies and you are right, he is an exceptional actor, I can't believe we forgot about him!

I agree on Loki being one of the best characters, but in large part I would say Hiddlestone helps to make him quite so good. You put him and Thor together and it is always very watchable as the two bounce off each other brilliantly with some fantastic lines.

Time travel stuff can often end up messy, when you add multiverses in too, you are right it can just get silly. Hopefully the lighthearted nature of Loki will help make it work. It certainly does with Legends of Tomorrow, which was awful when it was played straight, mind all those DC shows, such as Arrow and Flash, are terrible, they are like 80s teatime TV, so dated. Legends doesn't take itself seriously and so became watchable and enjoyable, at least until the latest series, which might be a season too far.}

you watched the final episode yet ed? I won't say to much just in case but I thought it was excellent and acts as the start of phase 4 for me.

My concerns above have been settled and can't wait for what comes next.

It also reaffirmed what we said, Hiddlestone is a very good actor and one of the very best out there.

{Ed001's Note - not yet mate, I did enjoy the one with multiple Lokis though. I have to say Hiddlestone is impressing but I did think he was a bit outshone by the alligator in ep 5.....}


3.) 18 Jul 2021 11:05:16
Watched it yet Ed? And if the alligator doesn't get an Oscar for that performance, there's just no justice. Such a snappy performance deserves the highest of accolades.

{Ed001's Note - I did watch it. I am unsure though how I felt. Which I think is good because they made me think, there was no meh was that it? Instead it left me wondering. And now you have left me groaning.}

I loved it, it's the first show that properly linked to the MCU imo.
Wandavision ended up being a prequel for the scarlett witch we will see in Doctor strange.
Falcon was an orgin story for new cap but Loki truly has huge implications going forward for the MCU as we know it. Plus I had no idea who Jonathan Majors was so didn't realise it was kang (or a variant) until the Conqueror line.

He made the episode for me, it takes a talented actor to have effectively a monolouge but keep you interested. I also loved the opening sequence.

The episode made me feel a lot better about how they are going to deal with the multiverse moving forward and I think by doing that, everything Marvel has ever done. X-men Fantastic 4, Deadpool etc has all just become canon. I thought I would struggle to keep being interested in the movies after endgame, but nope, I am hooked again!

{Ed001's Note - I would love to see a Deadpool series next.}

I actually really enjoyed Loki in the end, first few I was not to keen but what a final episode.

Very well done Disney.

Finished falcon and the winter soldier yet Ed001? Don’t want to say too much as it only aired yesterday but the last episode is very good. I’ve enjoyed the whole season tbh.

I thought I’d lose interest in marvel after endgame but they have pulled me back in, I hate how they do that!

Wyred

{Ed001's Note - yes mate, very good, especially the finale. Really enjoyed it.

I have started watching that Nevers thing as well. Not bad so far. Would be better but for the alien thing, which was cringey.}


1.) 28 Apr 2021 09:48:37
Finished Winter soldier last night, was pretty good at the end.

Did you find it very dark, not sure whether it was the light in my living room or just the fact it was very dark, could hardly see what was going on.

{Ed001's Note - it was dark at times, but I often find that here as I have big windows covering one whole wall and it does tend to make it difficult to watch TV during the day.}

For anyone that has three years to spare, ok slight exaggeration, i'd give the snyder cut a watch. Its chalk and cheese compared to the butcher job of the previous attempt.

Its not perfect but you can see what Snyder was trying to achieve, characters actually get a back story rather than 15 seconds of cctv footage. And the story actually makes sense!

If we got this first time round I think it'd kick-start what DC were trying to do. Instead not enough will watch this to probably get a Justice League 2.

Wyred

{Ed001's Note - if you go to the cinema to see it you need a colostomy bag to watch it all, it's about 4 hours long isn't it? I wonder if any of them will have an intermission, like you used to have when we were kids, midway through?}


1.) 19 Mar 2021 07:47:09
Sorry ed001 realised I had posted this to the wrong page, wasn't thinking straight after sitting through that!

But yeah 4 hours long although not sure if they are dropping it in cinemas, its on sky for anyone that does want to give it a go.

And intermissions may have been a thing for you ed001 but slightly out of my age range that one 😂

I thought the film had finished but there was an epilogue which would of set up where Snyder envisaged the DC universe going.

Hopefully we can wipe the JW version from existence. However, him coming in to put a movie together when the film had been shot can't have been easy.

{Ed001's Note - I only remember intermissions happening once, when Return of the Jedi came out. Me dad took me to see it and it was all 3 Star Wars films, one after the other, with an intermission between each one.}


2.) 24 Mar 2021 12:40:07
I watched it over two sittings, I really enjoyed it to be honest. done how it should of been done.

It gave a more time to get to understand the characters whoch I thought was good.

Worth a watch for sure.

Still watching wandavision ed001? what's your opinion of it.

Personally I'm hooked and will be re-watching all of it this week before the finale.

I'm usually one that would rather watch a series over a couple of days and binge it. But watching this weekly has me hooked on reading the many theories and I think its worked for marvel as people have kept talking about it. Rather then it being done in a few sittings, getting all the answers and then moving on to the next show.

Maybe the weekly installment of shows isn't quite dead yet!

Wyred

{Ed001's Note - still watching but I find the theories more entertaining than the show, to be honest.}


1.) 01 Mar 2021 11:58:21
Ive not wathced it, can you give me an idea how its played out and said theories?

I started but found the first episode very strange and not my bag at all.

Cheers. Mat.

{Ed001's Note - it is really not possible to tell you the story without spoiling it for you. It needs to be watched and there are many, many theories that go with that, but again you would ruin the show. It did get better after the first episode though.}


2.) 01 Mar 2021 19:51:46
Ok ill give it another go mate.

{Ed001's Note - it is one of those shows I think you have to try and stick with it. You might still struggle with it, like I am, but you might find you love it when it starts introducing the storyline.}


3.) 02 Mar 2021 07:16:06
The first couple of eps are mainly a tribute to classic sitcoms. But for how long the episodes are i'd stick with it until at least ep4 and see how you feel about it.

But as ed001 said we can't go into the theories as it'll spoil the plot for you.

If you do rewatch it to the most recent episode I will say this, good luck getting a soundbite out of your head.
