Isms bore me. I think they are only brought by people who seek to marginalize the potential of each ism to provide something meaningful. Name it, Capitalism, Socialism, even Communism-- all contain something of merit towards structuring a society. The biggest flaw in human history has been the need to take the worst of a system along with the best. It doesn't have to be all of one and none of another.
Did not expect you to go Drax this hard, thought the hyperbole was obvious. Still is one of the most ridiculous claims i've seen in this thread, which is saying a lot.
About the CGI which still means he thinks the story and characters are up to par with the very best of the MCU, which is.. well, see above.

Because it is? Like people need to stop pretending the writing in the MCU has gone down hill. The writing always has had questionable things, a lot of the things people like is because they were fans of the actor or casting. There is also the possibility people in the past were more willing to suspend their disbelief. A lot of complains about modern movies are more a reflection of the person making the complaint than of the actual movie.
The writing is pretty consistent since Iron Man, it is just that you are expecting improvements and not getting that, so in your head that's negative growth when in reality it is just stagnant. The MCU is doing what the MCU has done. It is fine to be tired with that, but thinking it isn't par for the course is just wrong.
What made the MCU the MCU wasn't stellar writing, it was amazing casting and they still do an amazing job with that. The issue as time goes on, that casting job is just not enough to hid the cracks in the material.

Ok, do you consider good writing, concerning the hero abilities, that superpowered punches cant do shit dmg to other beings or their prosthetics, but falling flat on your face can break your veneers?
What was the purpose on that? to not make She-Hulk a baddie, that hurt poor Titania? Or maybe to make us feel that while the punch on Titania was well deserved, it couldn't harm her and the only thing she suffered was the humiliation of her dropping flatfaced losing tooth face?
So what if She-Hulk had a broken nose after Titania's launching punch, fixed immediately by Hulking Out, and then She-Hulk's punch broke just the veneers or even chipped a Titania tooth?
It's nonsensical. Just as not showing Josh drawing Jen's blood. Which we assume was done so deftly, she never felt those huge needles while asleep after having sex. Details, but i personally consider them important.
Also, what's the purpose of Josh sending an emoji "mission accomplished", instead of showing us the new needles, or even the radioactive signed box, which were shown 2 episodes ago? Unless those weren't used by him and there's a 2nd party interested in her blood, just posting an emoji message inside Jen's house is kinda... lame.
Maybe kids prefer images than words these days. Definitely not 30-something undercover "agents" sent on a mission concerning one of the strongest beings in MCU.

I'm sorry, but at best you are nitpicking.
At worst you are arguing in bad faith.
We got that josh managed to get the blood. We have been shown how he would do it in a previous episode.
You are arguing minor points and saying that the writing is bad because is not to your liking.

Again, "bad" requires qualification. You can't just declare it to be thus.
Otherwise, it's just that you don't like a thing, and that doesn't matter to anyone but you.
And "qualification" means "explain such that others can understand and agree with your point". If you can't, then you've failed to make any argument that it is, in fact, "bad".
Lots of minor points make the whole script. The Devil's in the details. It's what can make a show shine or shit.
And that's also your opinion, so idgaf.

Yeah, super veneers that can withstand a hulk punch, but not a flat face drop.
Definitely no qualification here.
Let's not discuss the "mystery of Josh ghosting", by showing what happened chronologically earlier, as a last scene. This is cheap, highschool grade writing.
/spit@Blizzard
It's a misrepresentation. And no; you're not qualifying anything, there, you're just stating what you have a problem with, not detailing why. The punch was to the side of her head, the face plant was face first. This is why you don't convince anyone. You compare apples to oranges and complain they're not bananas.
Why, they don't put veneers on the on the left and right on the middle two teeth, upper and lower?
Also, it seems hulk punching someone and sending them some meters away definitely not causes any damage from the impact. None whatsoever. Only falling flat face does.
Pro writing.
Also, your opinion on my opinion is noted and as such, it means you're just stating that you have a problem with.
I don't want to convince anyone. You do, though, with your false misrepresentations.
/spit@Blizzard
You've got a lot of thick cheek muscle and cheekbones out there that protect the side of your jaw. It's much easier to damage teeth with a hit straight onto the mouth. That's just physics and body mechanics, and is exactly how things work in the real world.
Only if you forget Titania's superpowered too. Which you are. Or you're being intentionally misleading.Also, it seems hulk punching someone and sending them some meters away definitely not causes any damage from the impact. None whatsoever. Only falling flat face does.
Pro writing.
And again; you're still not qualifying things. You are still focusing on what you want to complain about, not why it's "bad".
If you didn't, you wouldn't be posting to a discussion forum.I don't want to convince anyone. You do, though, with your false misrepresentations.
Wow, so edgy. Nice way to deflect the fact that your points have no merit.
Contrary to popular belief, saying "My opinion" is not the star on super mario, if you don't give a specific reason why a thing is bad, people will call bullshit on it.
I want to make it clear that its fine if you don't enjoy the show. It is fine if you hate it. But saying: Titania lost a tooth from a face plant or We don't see Josh draining the blood is not really a good reason.
The Mystery of josh ghosting is not really about what he done, the bigger point is about Jen accepting herself, fully embracing what she has become not to mention playing with the romantic comedy trope of the lovebirds getting together.
Again, you can just dislike the show, and not even have a logical reason behind your hate. That is fine. Just dont try to make your reasons any thing more than they actually are.
