Didn't captain marvel get her powers from an external object. Why would her powers be in her DNA in the first place?

[@qty1315]

I assume that since they can copy clothes and weapons with the shapechanging they can somehow copy the tools that certain superheroes use. That's my best explanation. What I don't get is why they need the DNA when it's been confirmed that they can mimic superheroes just by being in their presence or seeing them do their thing on a screen. Heck, why didn't they just shapechange into a different alien species that have superpowers? That should have been a lot easier if that's what they wanted to do.

I was disappointed by the half-assed writing of the show. It could have been a great spy thriller, but instead... 1. They revealed Nick's wife and her true identity from the beginning. Imagine the suspense if they hadn't done that. 2. If the Avengers' DNA never should fall in the wrong hands, why didn't Fury just destroy it as soon as it was collected? Instead, he created a MacGuffin. 3. Sonya had already exposed a skrull by shooting him in the hand, which lead to him partially turn back, also showing his purple blood. All they had to do to convince the president, was HURT Rhodes to reveal his identity. 4. We now have a Superskrull in the MCU that wields the power of all the Avengers AND the children of Thanos. Gi'ah should now be one of the most powerful entities in the MCU.

Anyway, thanks for watching this show so we don't have to.

[@tonym.8069]

It would've been more interesting if Skrulls had existed on the planet before and had been stopped or something. Idk making them the gorgons or s'ilat or where shape-shifting dragons come from. So some Skrulls feel justified to take Earth back cause at one point it was a Skrull planet until humans got too smart for their britches. Could lead to an interesting revelation that aliens and such have visited earth in the distant past (Which is canon given Thor and shit) and contemporary governments cover it up cause they didn't want people freaking out. Or desperate skrulls trying to take back their old world they abandoned after the first ass whooping. Everyone loves ancient aliens, just make them the Annunanki or some shit.

[@shamrockdragon7634]

[@tonym.8069]

What like about One Piece is that it avoids this problem by limiting how super you can be in some ways and not in others. Shanks, unless we get some crazy revelation, is a sword saint who worked really hard to become an admiral among pirates. Same more or less with Mihawk. They have and might never consume devil fruits, just like Gol D. Roger never did as he became pirate king. In limiting the supers while letting the normies be a bit super, it doesn't feel like these crazy, illogical power gaps. It also helps its all a shared universe from the get go, not one cobbled together that worked marvelously until you pulled out the tent-poles of it and try to replace not with still-refined metal but rotted wood. Plus I'm still annoyed they shoved Captain Marvel into it so late in the game instead of doing a Black Widow movie to be a proper send off for that character. And how they handled Thor, seriously they couldn't leave him being reincarnated as a parapalegic doctor becausssssse? Anyways Secret Invasion is another warning shot the MCU is dead, whatever this is are the left over scraps cause they couldn't just wait a year or two, or write it so (or even write it in Spider-man) where it better sets up for the Mutants and such. All they had to do is where Dr. Strange can fix the multiverse collapsing onto their own but not everything will be the same, things will be different. Dr. Strange 2 could've leaned more into that, but instead of something like that they kinda handled it so weirdly.

[@SandraOrtmann1976]

@@tonym.8069 That may be another problem with the MCU - nothing is built up anymore, nothing is earnt. I really loved the beginning of the MCU, the first team of Avengers was introduced (mostly) with their own movie. Now everything is "just there, take it or leave it". I am tired of the flashy costumes, and that every male character is replaced by a female. That gets boring soon. I am female, and I like a big, strong superhero. But with the MCU, everything just seems to go to dust in short time. Just like our real world. You cannot escape it in the MCU, and that is why I left it.

@@imsentinelprime9279 True, but Marvel already has that character. And Superman has several distinct weaknesses that allow less powerful enemies to level the playing field against him. This is the equivalent of DC introducing a new character who has the powers of Superman, but also Wonder Woman, the Flash, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, AND Darkseid. Even if you can use Kryptonite, they are still going to be overpowered to an unprecedented degree. The whole thing reeks of the showrunners attempting to one-up the rest of the MCU with their own OC.

[@budgiecat2885]

it cant be Civil War when Rhodey was abducted because that would mean Gravik is an idiot for completely handing over the vial to Fury before making a copy for himself. I think it makes more sense after Falcon & the Winter Soldier because Rhodey is wearing the leg braces in it only underneath his pants, but Raava isnt wearing them at all in Secret Invasion and no one is saying anything. So its assumed that Rhodey got a full recovery now no need for leg braces. For timeline reference: End of Endgame: Oct 2023 Falcon & the Winter Soldier: April 2024 Wakanda Forever: 2025 (Im stating this because this is the first time President Ritson is mentioned as he was sworn in 2025 which means he won the 2024 election) Secret Invasion: Nov 2026 (we know this because Gravik bombed the Russians on Union Day which is a Nov 4th holiday in Russia, and in ep 6, they mention President Ritson being sworn in 'last year') So this means Rhodey could have been abducted post April 2024 and has been in captivity at New Skrullos nuclear power plant bunker for over 2 years; and he got abducted, during the operation he was receiving to get 100% full leg recovery back. Which is why as soon as he's freed, the first thing he does is try to walk. He thinks he can walk because he thinks his operation went successful. But he either never completed the operation because he was nabbed, or he did and he was nabbed in recovery while sedated, and his legs are numb from + 2 years of atrophy. Making it Civil War just introduces plot holes and more bad writing retcons - BUT....Marvel is just that stupid to do it.

Why did she have Drax's arm? Drax wasn't an Avenger. Neither was The Abomination. If it's Avenger's DNA none of that makes any sense.

[@carlpeterson8182]

I just finished the series. Earlier I was thinking I would come on here to defend the show as not great but not terrible. But the last two episodes really turned an okay but overall disappointing series into a terrible one. The first disappointment was that it could have been a spy thriller but it really was not. Everything was shown or very predictable. Well except the really bad was not that predictable. But they could have made a series in which the viewer was on the edge of her seat. Is he or she a Skrull or not? what is really going on? But they did not. The bad guys were the bad guys. They doubled down on the Captain Marvel and girl power. I have no problem and actually want women to lay large role in the MCU. But the MCU is ridiculous. The last two episodes here really doubled down on the women are the best motif. IT was not just he Avengers but CAROL DANVERS and the avengers. The speech that Nick Fury is nothing without his mother and wife. And I could go on. It is not completely one statement or even action. It is the cumulative effect. After awhile it is just nauseating. Also why did the main bad guy leave who he thought was Nick Fury in the transformation thing? I know he though he was human but that seemed pretty stupid for a guy who had made supposedly great moves before. And then the guy was so easily killed off. They both had the powers but he was so bad at them. No huge fight. Just meh. Finally the Super Skrull in the comics has the powers of the FAntastic 4. I know they are not in the MCU yet. But why give the Super Skrull every super hero's power? Why not some or some kind of build up? No it was all now. Just stupid.

[@DullTorpor]

13:26 The Super Skrull is a character from a the comics. He has the powers of all the Fantastic Four. I forget how he got them and don't know why there is only one of him.

What is the music at 4:12, I've been hearing that in vids since forever, but can't find the song listed anywhere?

[@Falconer22]

Oh, please! Dogs lie ALL the time! "I'm starving; my human never feeds me.", "Please pet me, no one ever plays with me", etc. Cutest little fibbers ever.

[@plesiophrictus2756]

19:59 But the only use for the paper now is the toilet whipping asses.

[@peterd788]

To be fair, as awful as it is, Olivia Coleman was given a script, saw it for what it was and ran with it. She obviously didn't care but delivered her lines professionally which she always does. None of it made sense but she did what she was paid to do.

[@SpriderMonk]

That drax arm is so hilarious because to someone who didn’t watch the show, you could assume it was bad photoshop or maybe even some weird ass AI drawing. But no lol. No

[@alexkaen1701]

If only they'd followed the comics, revealing that all the awful superheroes from the last few years were just Skrulls, then we could have reset the whole Phase. No more She Hulk, no more Marvels, Wanda can be an actual hero for once, Skrulls everywhere!

[@mclyde6266]

Phase 4, the live action anime nobody wanted.

[@DeetotheDubs]

"...dare I say..." Me: Shenanigans. "...shenanigans." Me: Ayyyy. The second this was announced and we knew it was supposed to be a spy thriller, anyone paying even passing attention to Marvel knew they didn't have the writing talent on staff to make anything remotely as deep and involved as what some people wanted/hoped for. I hoped it would be good as I'm ready for the tide of trash to change but i knew it would be more boring shallow nothingness that ends in CGI nothingness, having contributed nothing positive to the lore of the universe or characters. Some other parallel dimension got an MCU and DCU that did the comic stories justice, gave them space to grow and fester where appropriate, and revolutionized comic cinema. Meanwhile, our dimension got a good start with Iron Man then a little stumble to The Avengers and Endgame, and then drove right off the quality cliff.

[@theboy1625]

Oh yeah that intro was long Asf. I remember looking away at my phone when they pop up and I swear it felt like minutes flew by. I look up, opening is still playing

[@melodynice7938]

0:25 nice for them to borrow few clips from 2009 ps3 game Prototype, cool that someone still remembers that hidden gem

[@Midnitethorn]

If given time, thought, and talent, this could have been a great show 😂

[@surajs9171]

Peace maker was better secret invasion than Marvel secret invasion

[@joshuaknox2724]

AI generated art makes me sick....so greedy they cant pay a artist to come up with something as if artist aren't struggling enough 😡 but the film budget for this series was $212 million

[@jacklawrence2212]

Another excellent video, Mr Law. Loved the copeium gag and the 'But I'll never tell.' Very funny.

[@josefpicken]

ST DS9 did this plot way better with the changling threat 2 Earth... 25 years ago...

[@Thesiouxempirepodcast]

This! 💯

[@BigCowProductions]

2:15 This does seem likely, huh! But rather than an experiment to see how quickly we fall off the MCU, it would be to see how far they could go and get away with AI writing before people quit.

[@nelons12]

The crayon piece was peak comedy, thank you!

[@h-dawg969]

They should have implemented a real world illuminati conspiracy type vibe to this story. Showing how Skrulls have implemented themselves in numerous massive parts of human history over the decades, and slowly moved agendas in their favour.

[@richborn6700]

They already blew their load with that idea on Hydra essentially taking over Shield from the inside out back in Winter Soldier.

[@jlo1195]

I think the most TERRIBLE scene ever that doesn't make sense is when Talo got held up hostage by another Skrull infiltrator in human shape...and then Fury uses his human child to negotiate with the Scrull for Talos' life?? WHAT THE FK?? doesn't make sense...why would that Skrull, who took the human shape, care for a human child that is not even his?? writers????

[@caitlinrose4268]

Loved the commentary! I think what the guy said in that one scene is, "If I had another hundred like you I could take on the Universe." :)

[@AtunHotepRe]

In my opinion the story line was ‘fair to middling.’ The CGI for the Skrulls however, was terrible. Why would you CGI just one arm and not the full body, other than for low budget reasoning? It looked bad and made the story weaker than it actually was. The visual spectacle of the MCU characters is a major aspect of these films that should not be minimized or ignored.

[@PaulBlanks-Bonaney]

I would say that they should have made colonel Ross (Rhodey) act more like himself so that Nick wouldn't know if he was a scroll or not. So in the end they would have a hard time shooting him cause they don't really know. So at the end some one cuts him to see if he bleeds green. But the only reason why they didn't do it sooner is because Ross had a gun on the women's head. So they cant cut him or shoot him cause he has a gun to the womens head so if a shot gose off he would automatically shoot cause of the reflection of adrenaline would pump throu him making it so he reaction to the gunshot triggers his finger to shoot. & Then going to the scrolls fighting. they should have had it where Gravik was more experienced in fighting where every time she tried to kill him he would use a power that was countering the ones she used on him. Then in the middle of the fight she ends up getting hit really hard & she uses that to fly away from him as far as she can until he isn't able to see her any more. & as she is hidden she splits her body into 2 parts where one of her bodies flies back into the fight moving them away from her 2nd body. & Her 2nd body ends up splitting up into 5 different bodies. As the 1st body ends up getting killed as that was G' iah's plan to catch Gravik off guard. Then 3 out of 5 of her bodies turns into a Thanos or halk like being. Then they end up holding Gravik down turning themselves into a bomb while her 4th body comes out & shape shift into a being that has 4 or 6 arms & blast all of them away with all projectal type powers until Gravik is fully disintegrated. & To make sure every atom of Gravik is gone the 3 bodies with the 4th self detonate & explodes. As her 5th body looks from a distance to make sure theirs isn't any piece regrowing or lingering around waiting to fully grow back. As if it was a piece of him it would self regenerate as fast as it could cause it needs to be whole again. So if there was a piece of him it won't lay in one spot for a few hours or years cause it needs to grow back right away after being taken apart from it's main body. & Blood don't grow a body. Only skin, bones, muscle, & organs can grow back into a body.

[@Blacknight6577]

19:15 she won because they been trying to “prove” to us that women are better than men. Like of course she would win, but they should have made the fight better by having her be exhausted or beaten up by him and have him be more smarter and more ruthless cus that’s what he’s been portrayed throughout this show. Seriously that’s what Disney has been trying for the past few years to show the women can over power men easily or without too much trouble. There’s nothing wrong with women winning over men at times, but u have to make us believe they can truly do it by being more realistic about it instead of making the men stupid or seem like they’re all powerful and smart and than out of nowhere make them dumb just so the woman can win easily.

[@Yumums]

I agree with everything you've said, it's a lazy, goofy mess. I think the one thing that makes sense is the super power absorption. Skrulls are naturally adaptive and it's pulled from the comics source material.

[@nahplop2896]

I thought that 6:31 was a reference to the awkward flirting in Jupiter Ascending ^^'

[@freeyaw29]

Lol she became like those generic isekai op protagonist 😂😂😂

[@meinsouza]

how come you dont have at least 100k subscribers??? your content is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Fenriswolfer77]

Secret Invasion is so uninteresting, I can't even bothered to watch you tear it to shreds. It didn't break me so hard it broke me.

[@loucifaitouakli1024]

honestly when i first saw the picture of emilya with that monstrosity arm i thought it was edited but now i just lost all hope regarding the future of the MCU for me the MCU ended with endgame and no one will ever convince me of the opposite

[@hodor1765]

this might just be one of the funniest reviews u have made this was gold :)

[@garyg1705]

i didnt think i would be but i am still surprised that disney marvel continues to get worse!

[@ArchThaBoss]

I’ve given up hope on marvel. I won’t even watch the Disney plus shows anymore until they’ve finished airing and I can binge. That’s what I did with secret invasion. I don’t understand how you have such a drastic drop in quality. I think Feige has checked out and is just collecting checks at this point. It’s been mid after mid after mid.

[@MTBJJ2001]

watched the first episode and half of the second and just couldn’t continue. it was just depressing man. usually when i watch a series like this i’m so excited and watch the first episode as soon as i can, i had to watch the first episode over 2 days i a go bored lol.

[@MarcioSilva-vf5wk]

Was it not Captain Marvel who had promised a new planet to the Skrulls? And practically, all the Avengers, especially Captain Marvel, know a very nice and habitable planet, they went there to kill Thanos in End Game. Why they removed her accountability over this mess? AI intro is the smartest thing over this mess, it implies something that pretends to be a human taking control.

[@Lonelyweirdo96]

11:19 think about for a second more and you might just remember this is all based on COMIC BOOKS MADE FOR CHILDREN. Just because you’d shoot a woman twice to make sure she’s dead doesn’t mean everyone has to. And the Super Skrulls are in fact from the comics, even if they are poorly executed
