Gotta say, the CGI doesn't look great. But I'll give it a try for Tatyana Maslany. Same, but thank goodness they didn't make Jen look like Jason Aaron's version of her who looked like Savage Hulk wearing a wig.

I personally have no issue with the cgi. There are so many other TV shows out the far worse vfx. First Captain Carter, then Jane as Mighty Thor, and now She Hulk.
What a time to be alive. 😍

Not related but about John Halo. Are we going to discuss this travesty or continue pretending that it doesn't exist?

It looks like they made a bootleg The Walking Dead then slapped the RE title on it. What amazes me is that the source material should be easy to reproduce, but somehow all involved directors/writers tend to churn out stories that are inferior to the narrative of a 26 year old game that was made during a time when in-depth narratives were considered superfluous for the medium.

Aye, you'd think that they would take what has been sent in stone in terms of the lore and build around that. But nope, they just inject their own patterned BS into it.

That assumes they WANT to respect the material, rather than just produce their own mediocre drek then slap the name of a well-known IP to draw an audience rather than, you know actually be creative and draw their own audience! Like Dan Ackroyd's character says in Tommy Boy: Son, you got to look at it from my point of view. Callahan's a premium name. That's what I'm buying. I can make the parts in one of my factories, put them in a Callahan box, and sell them in my stores at a premium price. Why keep your factory going when all I want's the god damn box?

A lack of respect for source material is an understatement with modern showrunners. A lot of these people in the field are there due to cronyism or nepotism, and mistake their success as a product of genuine talent. Case point the GoT showrunners who were praised for mooching off of GRRM's writing until they had to write original content.

Is anyone kinda looking forward to She-Hulk? I'm really hoping they can capture some of the fun of Byrne run. Jennifer Walters was the attorney I wished I could have been.

I'll give it a chance because it stars Tatiana Maslany, who is an AMAZING actress. Otherwise, I have little hope for the show. Most of the MCU shows have been disappointments, and the CGI in the trailers looks really, really bad. I fully expect the show to be "Hur hur, men r dumb"

Dana Schwatz's (the writer) statement in the past leaves me with little hope.

After Jason Aaron's awful arc for Jen this show looks like a step in the right direction, but i tempered my enthusiasm because Marvel's shows have a spotty track record. Hopefully they don't do anything like the page below because it was corny then, and still is now.

I’m looking forward to it. All of the MCU shows have been - at minimum - good, and a couple have been excellent (unless a viewer has a particular axe to grind, but I give no fucks to the opinions of such people, they’ve had their time).

Well, yeah. Who wouldn't want to be an eight foot tall litigator with the ability to destroy entire buildings and Thanos leveling snarkiness? Also, Hercules.

collider.com/stan-lee-future-cameos-marvel-disney/Um....no thank you? This would be...awful. Sure, use his likeness for promotional material and a the theme parks...I guess people still go to those, but having Lee appear on screen, moving and speaking words he never uttered? For a gimmick? For a key role, where the actor died unexpectedly or before the filming was finished, I guess that's fair enough. But the cameos were never anything more than a fun little moment where due respect was paid to the person who made Marvel comics what they were. Appearing in future MCU content would seem very exploitative and more than a little disgusting, regardless of whether or not they have fairly agreed and paid for the right to do so.

I'm not trying to say the above shows are comparable to The WOT pilot starring Billy Zane in terms of quality but they're nearly comparable to WOT starring Billy Zane.

I forgot that as of NWH, all those shows are part info the MCU. I never watched any of them, though my wife did and liked some, disliked others. I should have specified that all MCU D+ shows were good or better. My bad. As for Billy Zane and tWoT…WE AGREED TO NEVER SPEAK OF IT!!
