The reviews gonna be bad cause white people hate when race is brought up.

While I'm sure there will be a good amount of people that go that route, there are legit criticisms of the show that people are gonna try to chalk up to racism and use it as a "shield". Spellman has already pulled that shyt with that "Confederate" show, saying black people marginalized he and his wife for not wanting a show about Slavery still being legal in the south to hit the air.

You really think the only reason to critique this show is racism?

It’s objectively perfect to everyone aside from racists?
Show is really good, IMO episode 5 might of been the strongest episode of the show, so i’m happy that director is coming back for Cap 4.

i definitely loved this more than wandavision, my only slight complaint with Episode 6 of CAATWS is the pacing. The Sharon Carter stuff in particular just lost me.

but on the whole, its going to be tough to beat.

Why were the Wakandans trying to murder Walker in that one scene? They wanted Zemo arrested...he wanted Zemo arrested...and Sam and Bucky (who broke Zemo out of jail) were defending Zemo. So, the Wakandans immediately start trying to murder Walker with spears while Sam and Bucky laugh. Meanwhile...Zemo has a drink and fukks off with noone trying to stop him.


Regardless of the politics being right...there was a lot of nonsense in this show.

That was a little silly too.

I assumed they were defending Zemo because they wanted to get to the bottom of things before they gave him back.

i’m sure theres an actual answer, but the fact that we’re out here trying to figure it out means they didn’t do a good job of getting that stuff across.

There were issues but it wasn’t enough to rate the episode a 57 or whatever. In response to your previous post, the white people saying the pro black speech was too heavy are on IMDB and RT crying and giving the episode a low score for that reason and not because of the issues you named

I didn’t say that but all the bad reviews are usually complaining about the wokeness of the show. White people are mad anytime a black person talks about their struggle or them being black. That’s a fact

I mean, it's not a fact that all white people are mad. Perhaps those that are inclined to bytch on the internet....but, Disney wouldn't be pushing politics in all their shows if it wasn't profitable, and it wouldn't be profitable if all white people were mad. It probably wouldnt be profitable if even half of white people were instantly mad.

I would argue that both this show and Wandavision sacrificed their characters, and logical/coherent story telling in order to capitalize on the political angle, but I could see that being a worthwhile trade-off. I don't think it's too much to ask that they do both, though.

They weren't trying to murder him though? It was a scuffle over authority on Zeemo that ended with Walker on his knees being spared. :gucci:

Outside of the rainbow brigade, this forum had the most nonsense ass critcisms for shows with black leads.
