If you’re going to reiterate the “Jedi Don’t Do Attachments” stuff at this point, particularly with those two characters, you need to interrogate it. You need to explore it.

This was a great episode, don’t get me wrong, but the thing that excited me the most besides Mando and the sci-fi urban setting of the Halo-esque ringworld (and it’s incredibly impractical but still cool underbelly) was the appearance of a BD droid. Likely not the BD-1 - and I wonder how many average Mandalorian/Boba…

Same, I thought it was quite clear honestly.

So the show ended up diverging a lot from the Fraction/Aja comic book run it took a lot of it’s cues from, which is a shame because it would have translated well as an irreverent, pulpy kind of super-hero show, but it wouldn’t have been as bright/chipper/made for Disney+, I guess. Kingpin, even with a power upgrade,…

I mean, she clearly didn’t take as much damage as the aforementioned, but Kingpin had a clear physical power upgrade here. He ripped a car door off of it’s hinges like nothing and tossed and pounced Kate around like she was a sack of nothing.

Comic spoilers, but the scene between Echo/Maya and Kingpin plays out pretty much the same in Daredevil, where she shoots him at point blank range, and he survives (albeit, blinded).

Fair enough, but unless you’re a fan of the comics (which I would guess isn’t a high percentage of the people who have watched the show), it’s more likely that they didn’t even know who she was.

I’ve seen a couple of replies here painting Echo as some kind of forced inclusion to the show or something, which is surprising because I thought it was made abundantly clear in this episode what her role is in this character study of Clint - she’s a reflection of himself. Both are weapons used by other people to…

She’s also one of the main parts of the comic book storyline they’re in part drawing from (her introduction in Daredevil), so there’s that. Saying she’s extraneous to this story is like saying Kingpin is, and the two are pretty interconnected. 

All the plot threads running through the show can be accomplished without maya.

I really don’t see how it’s forced, seeing that she’s literally the lieutenant of the gang Hawkeye has run afoul of. If it wasn’t her, it’d be another character to fill the same role. The fact she’s a victim of one of his past vigilante sprees just gives her more motivation as a character to pull at the thread of who…

Needs more It Takes Two, Death’s Door, Forza 5 and Halo Infinite imo.

Also a great shout

It did

I’d made the mental note that Laura was likely an ex-SHIELD agent but for some reason never considered the watch might be hers. And then I saw the fan rumour that she might be revealed to be the MCU’s Mockingbird, retired (and yeah I know there was a Mockingbird in Agents of Shield played by Adrianne Palicki but…

I think it was the campaign which I was most anxious about 343 nailing out of all facets of Infinite, as it feels that after what people perceive as a misstep in Halo 5 and then Master Chief Collection’s rough start, if this didn’t get a great reception it may have done some serious damage to the property - a long way…

Mate this whole article is about Kingpin, to which your post was “lol sif that’s going to happen on a streaming service”, despite all of the important events they’ve had play out and important characters they’ve introduced which you got mad about.
And I’ll say it again: Kingpin is as iconic as any of the characters…

How is believing a lot of the moves they’ve made in the Disney+ series being notable being a “crybaby”? That’s celebrating what they’ve done, not chiding it you goon. You’re the one slamming the streaming service, not anyone else.

Also imagine thinking the crowning of a mainstream black Captain America not being a big…

Right, proving that the Disney+ shows are being treated just as important to the MCU as any cinematic entry.
