The finale of WHAT IF Season 2 gave me a headache and here in this video I explain why!

[@vihaanyadu7033]

Cause he never had any intention of using it for his own wants and neither did she in those moments. In Endgame he's specifically the man planning the time heist. Six stones or nothing!

This leads to Tony learning about the technology of the Ant-man suit and improves it by using the arc reactor tech and other improvements, eventually teaming up with Pym and becoming the new Ant-man.

Literally just leave Strange alone. He's punishing himself anyway for his guilt, he won't go anywhere, and should actually always stays like that since in every incarnations of him he actually has a strong sense of justice. He has already accepted that bringing Christine is wrong when Killmonger tempted him back in S1. Yet they made him like Sinister Strange who is far gone with his feelings. Besides, his tale is already beautifully tragic as it is. Yes, he lost his universe and love, but he has The Watcher as his friend now and is trusted to guard Killmonger vs Ultron. That's bittersweet enough, no need for him to go evil then sacrificing himself again for his universe. We all love him, why should he go? Too sweet and all that left is bitterness. Or they just don't want to have an overpowered character in hidden since the fans will say "Supreme Strange can beat him". Or that they just hate Strange, that is my current belief.

I can forgive Carter getting all the Macguffins because she's a middle-tier hero trying to punch actual elder gods in the schnoz, she's going to need the plot armor to stay relevant. I can even forgive Good-Hela and Lawful-Nebula for being left out of the end despite the fact that their characters were specifically designed to mesh well with Carter and Kahori in a female-majority hero group. I cannot forgive Strange Supreme losing literally all of his character growth from the first season and drinking the idiot juice. The entire last episode reeked of bad writing and studio oversight and it's simply infuriating so see it.

[@jelita_]

Yes, the Strange Supreme part really is infuriating

[@lifegrain6092]

season 1 strange supreme was a delight to watch new spells, and interesting ways to use his (new and old) skillset we even explore what made this strange so different season 2 supreme strange only uses talking, illusion (mental talking), and energy blasts no attempt at using any proper defensive spells even, a punch was landed to the same person who delayed the destruction of his own universe with a "barrier bubble" that he casted within seconds let's make it fair too then, kahori has speed, teleportation, telekinesis and portals add the ten rings to her, speeding around while throwing the ten rings mixing between throwing them directly and through a portal use the ten rings to swing into a horizontal portal, to a portal right above supreme strange to give him a nice surprise super speed ten rings punch or use the ten rings as floating platforms so kahori has more places to run, which would actually overwhelm supreme strange more believably instead of running in big circle while shooting blue juice i don't think any other available weapons is as intuitive for kahori, the ten rings are essentially whip, projectile, rope, gauntlet, shield and floating platforms in 1 while the others are either bigger object with a more specific power set that kahori would have nearly no experience with, i don't think native americans has big swords for example, but a rope or a simple projectile like throwing rocks? it's literally 3 characters that can mix and match their skillsets and 90% of the fight is energy blasts

Infinity Ultron was such a good villain. It was taking 8 separate stories and (briefly) mashing them together into one. He also worked because the threat was believable and the heroes were underpowered in comparison. I expected season 2 to do something similar but it didn't. Nova Nebula doesn't matter. Celestial Peter Quill Pym doesn't matter. Freak Hogan is a villain in the 1602 universe, but that's it. Good Guy Hela? You guessed it, she doesn't matter. The only one who makes a reappearance is Kahhori and she's already way overpowered for having a mere fraction of the space stone's power. I don't understand why the made Supreme Strange the bad guy, either. His self-imposed isolation was his punishment for his arrogance and he accepted that. It reversed a lot of the character development he had in season 1 to me.

[@senzokuhlebhengu1126]

I agree on What If stories being stand alones, it doesn't need to be connected. They could easily write them like Black Mirror, we already know the characters so nobody would be lost in the stories

Too many inconsistencies, the OP new character (the young girl), Captain Carter holding and abusing the power of six infinity stones without any injury (when the whole cast of Guardians of the Galaxy had problems just dealing with ONE stone), the MASSIVE downgrade of power of Supreme Strange who was getting damage from normal punches from Captain Carter (who at that point was not using infinity stones)... Making Strange once again evil... Jesus, the whole point of his tragedy was that his universe was doomed because of his selfish actions, and he had to live with the weight of those actions forever! But nope, they had to reversed everything back to normal. Christine is back, the universe is back, oh Yaaay, woohoo! They can re-build and resurrect ANYTHING and EVERYONE. Nothing lasts but nothing ends... Ugh.

[@Dem0n1337]

Tony Stark is a mere human using tech that was put together too quickly to handle the great power of the Infinity Stones. Thus he died. Hulk was messed up because he was trying to bring back Black Widow. Which the stones won't allow you to do as she was sacrificed to the Soul Stone. Thanos was messed up because he used the Infinity Stones to destroy themselves. In short, each of these make sense because of the actions performed were beyond what the wielder was capable of, or what the stones would allow. As for the other weapons, these were legendary in their own right. The stones are not a weapon. They are a building/destruction tool. They are effectively as powerful as the stones but ONLY for their specific task.

[@MissConception7820]

It's just like when Casey from Loki s1 was like "yeah i use those as paperweights." It's an emotional blow to the gut, because MCU fans have watched characters DIE for those. In some cases, MULTIPLE TIMES. We watched characters kill for those stones, sacrifice themselves and others for them. And now, Peggy f-ing Carter is using them as paperweights.

The beauty of the comicbook series upon which these are based was about letting the writers write anything they wanted FREE OF the constraints of continuity of sharing a through line with the shared universe. It let writers produce some of the best stories in Marvel Comics. Then Marvel Studios took away the very base concept of "What If..?" by forced a throughline onto it.

[@stiven355]

Finally, now more people will start realizing this season wasn't it.

[@MaliciousAggravator]

I definitely agree. Season 2 started lacking with 7 going into 9.

[@spyxpd3943]

So Peggy can handle all 6 infinity stones but it takes all the guardians to just handle the power stone and not use it… Marvel is overpowering way to much

[@eddyviews1427]

I get the feeling one of the aspect of the show is now catching, and that’s the canonization. When it was first announced, it was described as their Twilight Zone for their MCU films as to their comic counter that has decades of moments for new interesting tales such as “What if the Hulk had the brain of Bruce Banner”” or “what if Peter Parker became the Punisher?” But when it’s connected to the wider MCU narrative, we have been hesitant. So far season 2 to me is decent and I would have to agree with you about the last three episodes. Kinda feel they were rushing or missed something that I got distracted to some moments that is cool but my brain was off for those moments.

ngl I lauged so just before the laugh here😭😭😭 2:33

[@Dreamglitch135]

The over powering is just insane why can't we just have a realistic villain like Thanos

[@Merp419]

I really thought Strange was redeemed when he saw his universe fall apart around him and he learned that he couldn't get Christine back. Guess not.

[@tntdude3152]

Tbh, I'm kinda done with the infinity stones. We had them in Endgame/Infinity War, we don't need them anywhere else, especially when their powers are wildly inconsistent.

[@BinaryKiller_Recoded]

After starting this video... I did a full watch of season 2 and understood mostly everything, including them teasing whatever is next for the main universe

[@arunvenkatesh5817]

its really sad to see Canadian lad went from watching and appreciating marvel to getting disappointed by it now

[@AbhijeetMishra]

Glad to see it happening, was becoming suspicious how people are still okay with the stuff Marvel has been putting out. Half of it seems focused on teenagers, but while a few years ago even teenage-aimed stuff was done well, they're putting in no effort now.

[@AbhijeetMishra]

@@nowonspecial I don't think the Canadian Lad will go that far, the ones you're talking about often just start off hating instead of first loving something. Basically their channels are more or less started to hate.

[@MrShadowSmith]

​@@nowonspecialbut it IS the MSheU you must be living under a rock or living in denial to not see that.

[@captainfrost3405]

Thank you finally some one who sees this issue too.

[@stephanhancocks9775]

I got a "what if". What if... Marvels MCU started using & following the exact stories from their most successful comics lines, & stopped putting a chick in and making her lame

[@kongukaran]

Its funny when Ultron, a most advanced AI with all the infinity stones struggled to fight Supreme strange while Peggy easily throwing him around.

[@Bengt2509]

3:23 shouldn’t killmonger’s space stone cancel that out?

[@TheCanadianLad]

Exactly! But it didn’t. Why? Because lazy writing!

[@mohdzainlone]

​@@TheCanadianLadnot only space man this dude had reality stone also, in comcis with reality stone you literally have control over whole reality

[@CarlosArthur]

I am here to call for a VOTE to get The Canadian Lad as the content director for Marvel.

[@Martinbumms]

I was so excited when What if was first announced, I thought about crazy stories, with unique animation styles to support those stories and absolutely no consequences because those stories are standalone stories. Marvel didn't do anything like that. At this point they can't help themselves, anything has to be an universe. Stories, animation, all of it has to be uniform, it's so boring. I'm a huge animation fan, I feel like animation is the best medium for superhero stuff but What if is just very bad at handling that potential. And fuck Captain Carter in What if. I liked her episode in season 1, I watched it and hoped they would create a show for her, but Marvel doesn't know what the best decisions are for their stuff anymore.

[@requiemempire6637]

The biggest problem that confuses me, is that it is said that the Infinity Stones full potential only work in the Universe they’re from, like snapping things out of existence, but Killmonger snapped Thanos out of existence in The Warden, is it like, the opposite of the TVA, instead of every power being turned off, is it all turned on? I’m really confused xd.

[@kiddmange]

There's so many what if comics to pull from if they wanna be lazy bruh

[@KUMARGSB]

1:25 Even though captain carter was using them only in battlefield, the power stone alone should show her hell the same way it did in GoG 1 to peter and his team. If you think it effects are based on the power capacity of the wielder, peter is a half-celestial ! and peggy is a superhuman .So what, as per the new marvel logic, superhuman serum gives a person more power than a celestial offspring?

[@ankurpathak108]

2:45 What if the writers weren't lazy ?

[@GeelongFan24]

Don’t forget kahhori covered them in a blue cover as a shield,which let her take less damage

[@shivanshsinha448]

Kahori just has the power of space stone and that too, she only had a fraction of the power of space stone as the power was distributed among her tribe, tesseract can't provide any shield, and even if it did, I don't think a fraction of the power of one stone can contain the power of all 6 stones.

[@shivangthakur2241]

Don't watch (what if) ,if you're not interested in comics and didn't want to know what will happen in alternate reality something it will simply ruin your marvel movies experience.

[@ajayiyer8641]

Thank you for sincerely putting our fans thoughts in the form of this video

[@minhajfahim7361]

The main problem was the bs storyline of the finale like why Strange needed Peggy to help? Like why ? One out of thousand prisoners escape and he couldn't catch another or do without her. Almost all the episodes are about some female character fighting against toxic male. And the one about Christmas something was the worst episode.

[@Jynx1368]

This is incredible! You are talented & your art is stunning. I love it! ❤

[@Crispy_Cheese88]

Canadian lad turning to the dark side, the beginning of his villain arc

[@WellSwolen69]

My criticism of the what if series is they forgot about the Loki series. The infinity stones are supposed to do nothing outside of universe at worse, or just act with raw power at best which isn't specialized per stone. The timestone is unique in the fact it can disappear.

[@ninio.x2930]

I still love that Hela episode, it's Dope. Change My mind Canadian land :)

[@gingerkays7362]

Even though I agree that this season has issues, my favorite episode of the entire series so far comes from this season: season two episode two. I LOVE the fact that we get to see characters in action who we know were really cool in their time but are retired by the time of the movies, people like Hank Pym and T’Chaka

[@kirtikumar3453]

Honestly for a show named WHAT IF the ending of season 2 was quite predictable
