G'iah casually becoming one of the strongest MCU characters feels so cheap and undeserved. I can't help but think about how dirty Thor has been done by Marvel recently. The guy had one of the most compelling character arcs throughout Phase 1-3 which resulted in him eventually being able to kill Thanos himself, but recently it seems that everybody can just get his powers, Jane in Love & Thunder, and now even G'iah, on top of the other dozens of powers she has. No build-up, no character arc, no struggles, no obstacles to overcome just a serum injection and that's it, you're now a god. It undermines everything the OG heroes had to go through and the journeys they had. What a joke.

[@BrickologyProductions]

The finale was ROUGH. Marvel shows just can't stick the landing

[@ubuu7]

It's usually the opposite for me, marvel shows start extremely slow and end strong. Wandavision started slow and ended strong. Same with Loki for me. But the drop off at the last episode was immense.

[@icyness2883]

The show was mediocre from the start

[@ThePonderer]

I’ll say this much- this show’s ending was so bad it made me appreciate all the other finales way more. WandaVision, Loki, Ms. Marvel, Hawkeye, etc, all those final episodes have clear flaws, but damn if they don’t each have some key strengths that Secret Invasion simply does not.

[@cooperwolfe5478]

I agree. Honestly and I hope I’m not being disrespectful to your opinion, the only MCU show so far that I genuinely love and think is great is Loki. That’s the only one where I was engaged from the very beginning and continued to be so through its entire first season.

[@citosauce28]

It’s getting pretty bad

[@APimpNamedNastyNesto]

This just proves Marvel isn’t following their own hard fast rules and cheapens the overall threat believability.

[@ChrisBell-InTheMomentReels]

We are in Multiverse storytelling. I have a feeling that the "reboot" of the MCU will come from the destruction of this timeline we know

[@truthseeker6561]

This was such a massive letdown in so many ways. And the finale was just utterly horrible. In regards to Gh'ia acquiring all those powers, it really was stupid and short-sighted but surely, she'll lose them all somehow in fairly short order. Keeping her that way in the MCU really would be a near fatal mistake for Disney/Marvel. And seeing how nothing has changed in this current Phase, it's super worrisome with characters like the F4 and the X-Men among others, about to be unveiled. Unless there is a serious course correct, the MCU could be completely dead in short order. This is simply not the way to go...

[@CreaturesOfTheMarsh]

It’s also strange that we never see how/why she got that vial from Fury, why Fury would trust her with it (if he even knew about it), and why Gravik was dumb enough to let someone else inside the chamber with him. Sure Fury isn’t a Skrull, but why take the risk that he walks away with some superpowers?

[@briansayles1615]

Gravik got the exact same powers, and he was killed three minutes later after Marvel got their Same vs. Same fight. (I'm surprised there wasn't a skybeam too.) So G'iah can be killed too.

[@JezzaBondiBeach]

I can’t get over how terrible that show was. Nothing exciting like the source material, awful CGI, writing just seems they’re making stuff up as it goes 😬

[@desi_no_aka]

[@bani_niba]

It only makes sense if Gi'ah sacrifices herself against some galactic-level threat - like Galactus or Mephisto. Otherwise, having this all-powerful character makes no sense.

[@samfisher6606]

After watching Secret Invasion, I realized what was wrong with it. I was never truly paranoid. By the end, I never really had the feeling that I couldn’t trust anyone. But I love the setup for the Rhodey series. I get what this show was trying to do. It's an allegory for the refugees we have in our society. But instead of warning against radicalization to stop such a thing, it did the opposite. When you tell people there are lizard people and when the people commit mass murder and the dead turn into lizards, they don't look so crazy.

[@monodescarado]

It was such a stupid risky plan. Imagine if Gravik just killed 'Fury' when he entered the compound and took the DNA for himself. You're just handing the guy who wants to destroy humanity everything he needs to destroy humanity. Brilliant work.

[@sultanofcardio]

She already had the Extremis power by then so he wouldn’t have been able to kill her that easily

[@monodescarado]

@@sultanofcardio He already put her down once. It would have given him plenty of time to take the vial and enhance himself before she got up.

[@sultanofcardio]

@@monodescarado yes but this just conjecture because we don’t know how the characters would have acted. They know that Gravik wants the harvest and Fury is the only one who knows where it is. If he kills Fury as soon as he enters the compound he may never get it, so I think it’s reasonable to assume he wouldn’t. Once the harvest was revealed and verified, you could make the argument that the plan could’ve gone sideways from there but I don’t think it was too unreasonable a risk for them to take given G'iah's invulnerability

[@monodescarado]

@@sultanofcardio Never in the history of stupid plans has there been such as stupid plan. Let me put this into context for you: A villain wants to get something that will give him the powers of Thanos, Captain Marvel, the Hulk and the a whole host of very powerful beings. It will make him the most power villain possible. Nothing will stop him. And he wants to destroy humanity. So you... .take exactly what he needs to do this.... to him ???????????? At no point should Fury have ever uncovered that vial. They still had the plan to stop Skrull-Brody and stop the attack on the base. There was no actual rush. So no, we don't know what would have happened with Gaia and Gravik at the compound, but the risks of that stupid stupid plan far outweigh anything else they could have come up with.

[@AstroCoors]

Marvel: Yeah you bring up good points but.... Anyways, look at this new cool powerful woman we have now.

[@d3l3tes00n]

Being a woman is irrelevant. It's just constant bad writing for female characters.

[@AstroCoors]

@@d3l3tes00n That's just it. The reason they write bad female characters is because they are motivated to "right a wrong." The lack of badass females in film history (compared to males). In trying to do so, they skip over writing good characters to begin with. So it's not the fact that they are women that they are bad characters, rather they are bad because the writers only gave them powers because they are women.

They obviously answered the question of nature or nurture in the MCU. In theory a lot of those "skills" are actually skills and require training, not some magic injection of DNA. The only out for this, is that the powers fade or start conflicting and destroying themselves.

[@marcellusfulbright5918]

What is not being said is the passing of Chadwick Boseman changed things for Marvel as he was the next guy up. He was by most accounts a loved character that they had to scramble around his death. His untimely loss left them without an foundational character to hitch the next Avengers group too. That situation combined with the changing of leadership at Disney led to a huge direction shift that's left Marvel kinda blah. Hopefully, between Loki and Deadpool they can kinda soft reset and maybe just maybe they can fix the issues. I'd definitely use the light reboot to recast Black Panther. That character could save them.

Instead wasting 30+ years on Earth, they should have just asked Star Lord or any of the Guardians who travel to a bunch of different planets any every film.

They gas his off-screen feats to the moon, but when we see him he loses to two Loki’s and a few Ants. They gassed Thanos for six years, at the time no one could believe he would live up to the hype. And what happens when we first see him in action?? He made the two strongest Avengers look like practice, killed the villain of the first Avengers movie with ease, only to then get exponentially more powerful from there. They sold him as being unbeatable, and when we finally saw him, he was, he won. The Avengers beat him by getting the drop on an injured, stoneless version of Him, and then they snapped him back the second time. It took all the cheese in the world to take him down, and then they have the nerve to tell me some guy named Kang is watching this saying “yeah… I’ll allow it”. Then they tell that there’s planet creating God beings. Then they tell me Scarlett Witch is more powerful than Thanos. FUCK OUTTA HERE.

[@BlazingOwnager]

IMO Kevin Fiege completely checked out after Endgame. He was the absolute mastermind keeping the entire universe on track building to that point for like 32 films. But after Thanos went to dust, so did his involvement. Ever since then it's been a bunch of TV writers wanting to tell "their stories" and the man that previously had *zero* reservations about firing super famous directors that couldn't follow the plan suddenly started caving to their wants instead of dictating the path. And it turns out everything they wanted is garbage. TL/DR: He's been letting a lot of terrible writers hired in recent years dictate things.

But my theory is that she is gonna be manipulated by Kang, and become one of the most powerful villains, even though she is good right now, and be one of the main antagonists of the Kang Dynasty, and possibly Secret Wars. What do you guys think ?

Nevermind the fact that it was only like 35 minutes, but it didnt feel like a finale. I was like, "That's it" when it was over

[@NoMadKid]

I don’t see any comments about how they wasted a solid cast of acclaimed actors. The leads are either Academy and Emmy winners or nominees.

I just realized it makes logically zero sense how they even have the DNA of Ebony Maw. Infinity War was shot into the vacuum of space, end game was disintegrated by the snap. The director and writers. Sadly, I don't think have a place anywhere in legacy interpretations of stories because they don't care about them to even do basic research to craft a believable story.

Ebony Maw did bleed in the first attack on earth in New York. He got hit in the head.

Spoilers: There are a few missteps here. Firstly, the villain was a disinfranchised leader of a superpowered political terrorist group whose disinfranchisement came after setting up a life for themselves after the blip using the empty houses of the people who were dusted by Thanos. When people came back, they again were faced with the unfairness of being homeless. This is the storyline of falcon and the winter soldier. Why repeat that story ark in another show but a few years later? Also, I understand that the Super Skrull is a character, with multiple super hero powers, but he does not have all of them, just a few of them, so why unnecessarily create so overpowered a being. Even if she loses the powers, which they undoubtedly must make her do, they have set a precident that all one need do in the MCU to have godly power is to take one Skrull (of which there are many) and a soup of any super hero DNA, and bake on high for 10 seconds. Boom - you now have a God

I have one question? How did all the humans survive around all that radiation? 🤔🤬🤬🤬

[@alexholt6810]

Isnt hulks dna pretty unstable and its why bruce can't have his blood spilled into someone because it would kill them? Like its why the abomination is called the abomination because even in a controlled test the hulk dna messed with him. Cant imagine it would be compatible with an alien race when its not really healthy for bruce himself. Just seems really dumb

DragonBall fans “Welcome to power levels. We’re gonna talk an awful lot about them, but they don’t mean shit.”

[@tommyboulais8342]

also when rhode and ross are in the pod they are still in some nuclear radiation and without any problem they wake up without any consequences.

[@ShivShankarRama]

I think kevin feign has been replaced by a skrull after average endgame.

[@cinecraze6240]

Sounds like Rey Skywalker +8

[@jdk4dawin]

This finale was really bad. It was so bad that I'm kinda understanding why Disney doesn't want to pay it's striking writers

[@evanerra]

The season as a whole was just not good. There are certain characters in this show that have been around for awhile in the MCU and their deaths made me feel NOTHING. Meanwhile, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 made me emotional over the death of a cgi otter that had less than 15 minutes of screen time.

[@deltablueprint3186]

The death of any talking furry animal should be taboo in Hollywood.

[@octosalias5785]

I think that the MCU got so large that its now populated with industry people who do not care at all. Instead of character driven its now the same Sony/WB 'stuff that sounded cool in our executive meeting', every product is a trailer for next product.

[@Im_Vengeanc3]

Deadpool may not be able to course-correct this Garbage 😆😆😆😆

[@NP31330]

The MCU is turning into dog 💩 imo.
