Maybe the real Olivia Colman is the friends we made along the way.

I’ll do you one better: Why is Olivia Coleman playing?

Oh THAT’S who that guy was. Right.

“that might be it for Ben Mendelsohn and Talos”

I mean, given the level of technology that is possible in this world, that SHIELD lost control of, the Suburbans that weren’t hit should have immediately TAKEN OFF, actually showing us what was implied to exist in The Winter Soldier. That might have been cool.

Was the fight well-staged? I dunno, just rolling up in your car to the very edge of a firefight and grabbing your guns out of the trunk seemed a bit odd. Also, I presume the writers are aware the actual US president travels the world in a 747 and a tank-limo? Maybe this is supposed to be some sort of covert…

I had my doubts from the start since they took ‘expansionist empire infiltrating superheroes’ and turned it into ‘refugees turned terrorist spy fare’ but the worst thing is that it’s also boring and the spycraft is poorly done. It’s failing on all cylinders.

It’s so weird how much I was looking forward to this and how much of a disappointment it is. I hope the remaining episodes pick things up but so far this is down there with Falcon and the Winter Soldier for me. Probably worse, since that show was occasionally fun. 

1. Their best opportunity to do this was Bay’s Transformers. Just have those soldiers become the basis of Joe. Nothing will ever beat that.
