Call me petty all you want but when I see a commercial where She Hulk "twerks" with some other chick, I'm out!

I thought it was nuts that the "female empowerment" show chose to market itself most heavily by showcasing the star twerking with a glorified porn star like Meghan Thee Stallion.

You could write a whole pamphlet with all the mixed messages in there, and I don't even watch the show.

I didn't actually mind the show... much, as a whole. But man there was some awful stuff in there at times. And I don't know that the ending really accomplished what they were going for there.

She-Hulk Season 2 Gets Disappointing Update from Tatiana Maslany
Quote:
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law star Tatiana Maslany does not recommend fans hold out hope for a Season 2 of the Disney+ series.

Speaking during a Codenames LIVE! - The New Class stream, Maslany said she does not think fans should expect a Season 2, remarking (with a dash of humor) the show "blew [its] budget" with Season 1. Given this, she said that "Disney was like, 'No thanks:"

Heh. But blowing their budget would have been fine if it'd had the views. I guess it didn't?

If it made money they'd continue to spend money on it. It's that simple.

None of these TV shows needed a second season anyway, besides Loki and that's done too.

If they won't do a season 2, I'm sure She-Hulk is going to appear in one of the movies eventually.

Maybe. But there really wouldn't be much of a push to. Why pack probably already crowded movies with characters whose series failed if you don't have to?

Kevin Feige is lost in his echo-chamber of insanity and virtue-signaling. So yeah, she will probably show up in their future-already-failed "She-Avengers" movie.

It's too bad it went in this direction too - She-Hulk is a great, fun-loving, upbeat character in the comics and the John Byrne She-Hulk book was a fan-favorite. Almost none of that translated to the screen in her show.

I don't think they gonna use her anytime soon - MCU loses money, if anything they'll try to play it safe. If not for the sake of sanity than just to save money and not to include unnecessary characters.

I've said before that the criticism of the MCU that it isn't faithful to the comics because they are not panel for panel recreations is kinda dumb. Compared to a lot of other comic book movies they are generally more faithful to the characters and stories than your average comic movie book franchise. That being said I've had this feeling for a while that The Kang Dynasty and World War Hulk don't seem to bare any resemblance to the stories they are based on and it's going to be an Age of Ultron situation were it's mostly an original story but they chose the name of an existing one because it sounded cool. In the case of WWH it we are just getting a plot were different Hulks have to fight each other...which could be fine. That has always seemed to be a natural place to put Jen in movies outside of a big Endgame-esque battle sequence with every character at the climax of Secret Wars.

Except no-one makes this argument.

There is a fine line between making your own story and butchering characters to the point, where they are resembling their own originals "in-name" only.

Stop gaslighting people.

What MCU movie (other than the example I gave you) was so altered from the story it was based on that it can be argued it's an adaption "in-name" only?

If the Fantastic Four film is a hit, get Jen back for a sequel based on Slott's Reckoning War, as it was Jen's big event in the comic that took 20 years to make

First, I talked about characters.
Second, Age of Ultron for one.
