The real problem is that Marvel Television didn't want to spend any money. They hired Scott Buck because he's a guy who can make something really cheap and fast. That's why he'll continue to get work. Because there will always be TV studios/networks that need to make a really cheap show to fill their schedule.
I find it interesting that Black Bolt's abilities are strangely highly focused while he is not wearing his head fork in this show. He wears that fork for a reason.
As a member of mainstream audience who is only fleetingly familiar with the inhumans part of the marvel universe I think I can explain why. The fork looks stupid. (admittedly not quite as stupid as the show itself manages to look even without a head-fork, but a head-fork probably wouldn't have helped)
My mom watched it on TV. She stopped watching it when the sex scene happen, knowing that they were desperate just throwing that in almost first thing in the series.
Scott Buck may be the one the ended up making a mess of a TV show, but the ultimate responsibility should go to the CEO Ike Perlmutter. It was literally his idea to use a property to essentially replace the X-Men. Believe it or not, apparently none of the people of Marvel Studios were interested in making an Inhumans films, possibly because of Perlmutter's intent of having a "not X-Men" film. And Kevin Feige was obligated to do so in order to have Black Panther and Captain Marvel greenlit. But once Marvel Studios was separate from Marvel Entertainment (the former now answering under Disney), after a huge falling out between Feige and Permutter regarding the production of Civil War, that's very much the point when Marvel Studios removed the Inhumans film off the release schedule and the rest was history.
@@autobotproductions1244 Aparently he had a toy company or somethign that gained some income to Marvel and he could not just be fired even tough he was a liability
The one thing I took away from this video is this: Scott Buck knows how to utterly disrespect comic book characters and the powers they have... ALL AT ONCE.
This is really good! I like this format Erod! It feels closer to the older/original Blockbuster Buster. You have won back my confidence in you and I'm a patreon supporter! Keep it up dude I'm rooting for you!
The real problem is with the inhumans is that the head of marvel entertainment ike pearlmutter is cheap as all hell and he wanted to force the inhumans down our throats
Tevya Smolka yup he’s sexist racist piece of shit who was against having a black & female super hero who has a grudge against fox because he couldn’t get the rights to F4 & x-men
Great Funny Review Erod I like the Old style of funny movie reviews more than the cinematic style of it. Can I see more of that Erod? Please! also, I don't have money for patron but I wish i could watch those reviews on the site too.
My big question is why didn't they just introduce the Royal Family in AoS Season 5? That would have made a lot more sense in terms of context and story investment
That was your best episode in few years. I love how you combine all those older plans about MCU and that wider perspective really makes this bad tv show even worse.
Marvel doesn't exactly play fair either. They're basically holding the X-Men and the Fantastic Four for ransom until they get the film rights back. "Marvel vs Capcom Infinite" didn't have a shitty roster because of Capcom's ineptitude. They're making comic fans suffer just because they were too short-sighted to start their Cinematic Universe a decade sooner.
So one small counter point to the trident thing. When Transformers prime was being promoted, they went all in on showing off "The Rock" was Cliffjumper, then killed him off nearly immediately. So just because he's got a poster doesnt mean he can't be worm food fast. And yes I'm aware they brought zombie cliff jumper back for an episode, but still all in promotion, then worm food.
I never watched this on the big screen or even on TV, but watching this, I'm thankful I didn't. The reason why I think this was so terrible was because of all the behind the scenes shit that happened. Ike Perlmutter, the head of Marvel at the time, wanted to use the Inhumans to replace the X-Men due to those characters being owned by Fox. Believe it or not, no one at Marvel thought it was a good idea...because pretty much the reasons you stated. Kevin Feige went along with it so he could get the Black Panther and Ms Marvel in production along with much better superhero teams. But after a huge falling out between Feige and Permutter, Feige became the head of Marvel Studios (only answering to Disney) and Permutter became the head of the TV devision, taking the Inhumans idea with him and turning it into a TV show. However, the movie box office is way down this year in general, so Marvel Entertainment and Imax worked out a deal to have Imax play this on the big screen since they didn't have any big releases in the month of September. But there was a catch since they had to get this out by that September. Because of this, The Inhumans was pushed from writing to the big screen in a matter of _6 weeks_ , making the story being made up on the fly. It really, really shows. That's also the same reason why Scott Buck keeps on getting work, despite Iron Fist and The Inhumans being hated by fans and casual audiences alike--he can push a product out fast and under budget. He's kinda like the McDs of the tv world in that way. So this was destined to be a dumpster right from the get-go.
I do think it's worth noting that there's a significant divide between the Marvel that produces its Netflix and TV shows and the Marvel Studios that's responsible for the actual real movies.
I know I'm a year late to this conversation, but I can fix the whole Inhumans series: Roll it back to 1971. Instead of a rover, an astronaut finds Attilan, and that's what jumpstarts the plot. From there, they can play out most of the same beats from the show without much change, and maybe have everything tie in to the Agents of SHIELD stories by having them end the series setting up Afterlife, the Inhuman haven from the second season.
I don't know anything about the characters but Medusa stabbing someone with a switchblade is extremely unheroic. That's the things street thugs do in those movies.
Flame of Udun he helps cut the cost of a production so they can rush it at the deadline they want. I hate him and want him fired but I see why they have him from a profit point if view.
It's like when that old lady in Power Rangers told a little girl that monsters didn't exist. Problem is this is Power Rangers, monsters attack about once a week and giant mecha robots fight them. You can't deny the fact that monsters aren't real.
Review The Gifted after season 1 is done And you know, one more thing, I just wanna mention that I watched the first two episodes and then I repeatedly made jokes about Maximus having no powers, and that in the final fight scene of season 1, it would start and end with black bolt throwing 1 punch at Maximus, causing him to fall and be unconscious, and I made jokes that even though he did have powers, it would be hilarious if he could only make a tiny flame pop from his pinky, now that would be funny if he used that to try and defeat The Inhumans, I can already seeing him swinging his flame around them all while corner crying, now that would be hilarious
I'm of the belief that there are no bad products, just bad executions. With a little more thought and a larger budget. This could've worked. After all Black Panther has shown that a Marvel hero can be royalty.
Oh man, You mean Marvel's sad attempt at replacing the X-Men didn't work? Who could have seen that coming? It's almost like that was a stupid idea or something.
Can you talk about in legend of fandoms Batman Continues and Batman Unchained? Batman continues was going to be the third tim burton Batman film with Robbin Williams playing the Ritter and he was going to shave his head to make it have a question mark on it. Batman Unchained was going to be the sequel to Batman and Robbin which Jack Nickelson was going to return as the Joker for a cameo as a ghost and Harley Quinn was going to be his daughter out for revenge (couldn't make up that plot if I tried) not saying either would have been good but they were what was planned. Along with a Robbin spin off movie . But quite frankly Chris O Donnel wasn't a good Robbin.
He will probably talk about them all in a video just like all the cancelled superman/spider man films expect for spider man 4 which he talked about before.
Honestly, I think the biggest problem with this series was that it wasn't a sequel to Disney's Big Hero 6. HEAR ME OUT! Big Hero 6 was based on one of Marvel's most obscure comic lines. Inhumans, before it got all the publicity, was even MORE obscure than Big Hero 6, or even Guardians of the Galaxy. The premise is: "A super human royal family that lives on the moon which includes a guy who kills people by yelling, a woman who can use her hair to beat up bad guys, and an adorable giant dog who can teleport anywhere". TELL ME that would work in anywhere but a Disney animated feature! And having it be set in the same universe as Big Hero 6 would have also lead to building a new Marvel cinematic universe. A Disney/Marvel Animated Feature Universe, or DMAFU, if you will. And it could have lead to even more obscure Marvel titles who wouldn't work in live action becoming animated features, such as Devil Dinosaur or Tigra.
Big hero 6 eventually did receive a sequel in the form of television at least in that series it continued where the movie left off and we find where out the name big hero 6 the team name came.
First off, that's not NASA since I believe they stated it's a privately owned project. Secondly, they were kinda having to supplant the X-Men with the Inhumans because Fox has X-Men otherwise they'd be using them so it's the closest thing they have. Having seen the next few episodes I'm seeing that the characters are getting a dose of humility mostly. And as for some of the complaints about what these characters are capable of, the MCU has often simplified the abilities of the characters from certain over-the-top description so reducing Black Bolt to only his sound powers or making Medusa's hair trimmable is actually not that much of an issue since it allows for vulnerability. It's like the DCAU _not_ allowing Superman to breath in space or underwater. Even Jessica Jones made jokes about her flight ability which are absent on Netflix. Speaking of Jones (which I hated alongside Iron Man 3 before Iron Fist) her ability to block Purple Man was actually thanks to Jean Grey in the comics but that had to be left out because they can't use Mutants. So I'm fine with a lot of the artistic changes since I'm going in mostly blind to all this. I also think Marvel didn't know where they were going with this hence why Agents of SHIELD already blew the whole concept Inhumans living in some hidden colony in the mountains and the whole random terrigenesis thing happening due to contaminated fish is mirroring the random DNA selection of X-Men.
"Scott Buck is the Zack Snyder of the MCU." Oh, please! Say what you will about Snyder, but even he would've turned out a much better product than this sorry excuse for a 'movie'. At the very least from a visual standpoint he would've done the Inhumans justice.
Zack Snyder took risks, he is technically a great director and has an eye for stunning visuals and choreography. Scott Buck has never had any of these things plus the general lack of telling good character arcs, world building and editing that Snyder's DCEU films have had.
While I don't disagree with you on Zack Snyder as a filmmaker, this comparison doesn't work because Scott Buck is not a director. He's the showrunner. So, if you were to compare the two, it wouldn't be based on the visual appeal; it would be the storytelling, and we all know that, like Scott Buck, Snyder's movies are definitely lacking in the area of story (which is not all his fault, which is why the comparison doesn't work) Look at the filmography of the director behind this pilot and you'll understand why the show looked so cheap. I'm sure Scott Buck was involved in hiring him. I am in no way defending Buck. Just highlighting how this comparison doesn't really work.
From what I understand, the reason that the Inhumans was even included in the MCU was because there was a Marvel executive who was obsessed over having the X-Men but couldn't have them because Fox wouldn't give up the License. He looked at knock off X-Men groups and found The Inhumans and thought that they would be a good X-Men replacement. But he ended up getting removed from the movie department and put into the television department and the guy in charge of the movie department never wanted to do Inhumans in the first place. But the original guy never gave up on his dream and was like, "I'm damn well going to have my replacement X-Men!!!" and decided to make it as a TV show. But Marvel doesn't like to throw money at their TV shows. Unfortunately superheros, especially ones with powers require a lot of special effects. Something like Dardevil is relatively easy. Something like Inhumans, do it right would be Star Trek expensive or even more expensive than that.
Jake Voronkov he's possibly holding back for another day maybe like tomorrow or soon but I'm sure he's will bust that movie sometime we need to wait he's got a-lot of stuff to do and possibly has a very busy life ahead.
Erod explained in an earlier video that he had to get a day job recently (largely due to RUclips's adpocalypse) and so he doesn't have as much free time to work on the videos these days.
One day the US government is going to have to address what to do about internet reviewers with weapons of mass destruction. Until that day, destroy what you can.
That Medusa wig looks worse than the one Sue Storm wears in Fox's Fant4stic reshoots. There are better more realistic looking full lace or lace front wigs that can be parted, have a scalp and a hairline. These look like cheap $5 Party City Halloween wigs.
Say, ERod, maybe you could do a sort of hybrid style for your reviews. A lot of people (myself included) really dig your Channel Awesome-style of cutting between camera and movie footage. But, I also like a lot of the stuff you did with going into the movies and taking the piss out of scenes from the inside. Since the former seems to allow for more critique, and the latter more comedy, why not combine them? Maybe do your old style of reviews, but on occasion go into a scene to dismantle it like only a fanboy parody can. e.g. I could totally see you going into that scene where the Inhuman girl is shot, asking about her deal, getting her long-winded reassurance that she's totally important and has a very involving backstory explaining why she's here and why we should care about her. And then the gunman that shoots her from off-screen turns out to be Scott Buck.
This is the one series I don't regret getting into. Oh I tried, but I found myself not being able to watch just parts of the first episode aired on TV because ABC did a terrible job reminding people this would be on the air. I believe I came up with a term you can call this (alleged until finished) piece of trite: A Bart Simpson Book Report. It's when they take a quick look at the source material but miss the details so important you wonder why they even tried in the first place
That´s fair if you wait to watch the rest. I am just confused how this could happen when it sounded like the Inhumans was a great part in Agent of Sheild. I have sadly not watched anything from that show but know a few things. Did they die? Were none of them related to the royal family?
Thank you for taking one for the team. I couldn't watch past the second episode. Speaking of inhumans, will you ever review Agents of Shield? I stopped watching it at some point maybe after season 2 as it just lost my interest. And I have no idea why that happened. You have a great talent for explaining things like that.
Killing a character that's featured in the promotional material early into a show's run can be effective. Just look at Cliffjumper in Transformers Prime as an example. He was killed on-screen in the *first episode* and was featured in the packaging art for most of the series' toyline run. As for storyline stuff, Cliffjumper's death showed that TF Prime was not afraid of shying away from more mature themes such as mortality and dealing with the loss of a loved one (for Arcee, anyway.)
Gio A The thing is that the Inhumans from S.H.I E.L.D. made a good effort to sympathize the Inhuman race and now the Inhumans on their own show seems really racist.
I'm surprised you didn't bust Iron Fist. Anyway, it looks like they took far too many elements from other better Marvel properties. The otherworldly royal society of Asguard plus the secret city of Wakanda. First, I get the MCU setting up the Inhumans as Mutant surrogates in the AoS (especially with how people were forced through terragenesis thanks to Hydra), but then introducing this society on the Moon muddies the waters. Maybe if they were given closer ties to the Kree that could help, like the more Kree than Human Inhumans are meandering their way to Earth due to the boom in Inhumans would make sense. Hell, they could have roped it into AoS with the secret Inhuman society of season 2 (I think it was season 2). Second, up until now the face of the Inhumans for the MCU was Quake aka Sky aka Daisy Johnson. And she is nowhere to be seen in this. What makes the other Marvel properties work is some sort of connection, be it Coulson for the pre-Avengers movies, Coulson for AoS, Agent Carter for her show, or Claire Temple for the Netflix universe. Third, if this is meant to set up the next season of AoS (the last episode had a cliffhanger where they are in space), then this was a poor prelude.
For what it's worth, I think the show is actually pretty good; from what I've seen. I mean, it may not have effects that are in the same league as the films but it's still exciting. The only two complaints I have are the following. 1. Why remove Black Bolt's iconic mask? Isn't that thing like a sort of...royal mantel or something 2. While I have no qualm about the race of Gorgon's actor. Why make him so smooth in the face and head? As I recall; in the comics, he has a full-faced beard and long hair
God this sucks, especially since Marvel TV shows have been really good in this year alone, The Defenders was kickass, both Legion and The Gifted are amazing, Big Hero 6: The Series looks great so far and I have pretty high hpoes for Cloak and Dagger.
Critics don't determine what's good and what's bad. They're just people stating their personal opinions. You should watch the movie and decide for yourself how good or bad it is.
As Homer Simpson from the Simpsons Movie would say about the IMAX Experince of the Inhumans' two episode: "I can't believe we're paying for something we can get on TV for free. If you ask me, everybody in this theater is a giant sucker, especially YOU!"
BLOCKBUSTER BUSTER IS BACK! YAHOO! Dont worry, we understand your economic problems, just keep going with your awesome videos. By the way... You really hate that Snyder guy... He, he...
When it comes to TV and Movies you can have 3 ways: if you want it to be good and want it fast, it's not going to be cheap. If you want it good and cheap it's not going to be fast. If you want it fast and cheap it's going to suck.
It's sad that this show isn't very good, but all we can do now is move on and hope that the next Marvel movie or show is good. And maybe Marvel will manage to redeem the show in season 2(if it gets one), and they'll learn not to give projects to Scott Buck until he gets better.
Reached 7 minute mark and I'm going on record to say that episode 3 onward isn't that bad a show. It isn't The Inhumans, as they probably should be portrayed, and it is on the lower end of the quality and entertainment (just better than Daredevil season 2 or Ant-Man), but it isn't bad. They are getting into Mutant X level or Alphas level.
The real problem is that Marvel Television didn't want to spend any money. They hired Scott Buck because he's a guy who can make something really cheap and fast. That's why he'll continue to get work. Because there will always be TV studios/networks that need to make a really cheap show to fill their schedule.
So true.

And it could have lead to even more obscure Marvel titles who wouldn't work in live action becoming animated features, such as Devil Dinosaur or Tigra.
Big hero 6 eventually did receive a sequel in the form of television at least in that series it continued where the movie left off and we find where out the name big hero 6 the team name came.
NERD Incorporated actually sliver samurai is the original team leader
First off, that's not NASA since I believe they stated it's a privately owned project. Secondly, they were kinda having to supplant the X-Men with the Inhumans because Fox has X-Men otherwise they'd be using them so it's the closest thing they have. Having seen the next few episodes I'm seeing that the characters are getting a dose of humility mostly. And as for some of the complaints about what these characters are capable of, the MCU has often simplified the abilities of the characters from certain over-the-top description so reducing Black Bolt to only his sound powers or making Medusa's hair trimmable is actually not that much of an issue since it allows for vulnerability. It's like the DCAU _not_ allowing Superman to breath in space or underwater. Even Jessica Jones made jokes about her flight ability which are absent on Netflix. Speaking of Jones (which I hated alongside Iron Man 3 before Iron Fist) her ability to block Purple Man was actually thanks to Jean Grey in the comics but that had to be left out because they can't use Mutants. So I'm fine with a lot of the artistic changes since I'm going in mostly blind to all this. I also think Marvel didn't know where they were going with this hence why Agents of SHIELD already blew the whole concept Inhumans living in some hidden colony in the mountains and the whole random terrigenesis thing happening due to contaminated fish is mirroring the random DNA selection of X-Men.
I couldn’t stomach this one. I gave Iron Fist 13 hours of my time, and I am NOT making that mistake again by watching more of this series.
I didn’t bother watching this in theaters and I feel sorry for all those that wasted their money on this.
Crystal was also the ex wife to both Th Human Torch and Quicksilver
"Scott Buck is the Zack Snyder of the MCU." Oh, please! Say what you will about Snyder, but even he would've turned out a much better product than this sorry excuse for a 'movie'. At the very least from a visual standpoint he would've done the Inhumans justice.
I think a better comparison would be Uwe Boll rather than Snyder.
Agreed. While i'm a huge DCEU apologist, the one thing fans and detractors alike can agree upon, is that he never fails to deliver the visuals.
Yeah. He isn't cheap at least and you can see his passion.
Zack Snyder took risks, he is technically a great director and has an eye for stunning visuals and choreography.
Scott Buck has never had any of these things plus the general lack of telling good character arcs, world building and editing that Snyder's DCEU films have had.
While I don't disagree with you on Zack Snyder as a filmmaker, this comparison doesn't work because Scott Buck is not a director. He's the showrunner. So, if you were to compare the two, it wouldn't be based on the visual appeal; it would be the storytelling, and we all know that, like Scott Buck, Snyder's movies are definitely lacking in the area of story (which is not all his fault, which is why the comparison doesn't work)
Look at the filmography of the director behind this pilot and you'll understand why the show looked so cheap. I'm sure Scott Buck was involved in hiring him. I am in no way defending Buck. Just highlighting how this comparison doesn't really work.
Crystal? As in, Quicksilver's future ex-wife? Oh boy . . .
i liked agent carter.....season 1......i liked agent carter season 1 :)
elasmar1337 Me too...ME TOO.
How do you feel about marvel's the Gifted on fox I would give it a 9 out of 10
From what I understand, the reason that the Inhumans was even included in the MCU was because there was a Marvel executive who was obsessed over having the X-Men but couldn't have them because Fox wouldn't give up the License. He looked at knock off X-Men groups and found The Inhumans and thought that they would be a good X-Men replacement. But he ended up getting removed from the movie department and put into the television department and the guy in charge of the movie department never wanted to do Inhumans in the first place. But the original guy never gave up on his dream and was like, "I'm damn well going to have my replacement X-Men!!!" and decided to make it as a TV show. But Marvel doesn't like to throw money at their TV shows. Unfortunately superheros, especially ones with powers require a lot of special effects. Something like Dardevil is relatively easy. Something like Inhumans, do it right would be Star Trek expensive or even more expensive than that.
Hey Eric, what happened to the Resident Evil: The Final Chapter review?
Jake Voronkov he's possibly holding back for another day maybe like tomorrow or soon but I'm sure he's will bust that movie sometime we need to wait he's got a-lot of stuff to do and possibly has a very busy life ahead.
It's still in the works but due to reasons explained with a video made before hand, it will take time to be finished up.
Chris Brasel that's what I said exactly different yet the same.
Check out his video on the future of the Blockbuster buster.
Erod explained in an earlier video that he had to get a day job recently (largely due to RUclips's adpocalypse) and so he doesn't have as much free time to work on the videos these days.
One day the US government is going to have to address what to do about internet reviewers with weapons of mass destruction.
Until that day, destroy what you can.
That Medusa wig looks worse than the one Sue Storm wears in Fox's Fant4stic reshoots. There are better more realistic looking full lace or lace front wigs that can be parted, have a scalp and a hairline. These look like cheap $5 Party City Halloween wigs.
Say, ERod, maybe you could do a sort of hybrid style for your reviews. A lot of people (myself included) really dig your Channel Awesome-style of cutting between camera and movie footage. But, I also like a lot of the stuff you did with going into the movies and taking the piss out of scenes from the inside. Since the former seems to allow for more critique, and the latter more comedy, why not combine them? Maybe do your old style of reviews, but on occasion go into a scene to dismantle it like only a fanboy parody can.
e.g. I could totally see you going into that scene where the Inhuman girl is shot, asking about her deal, getting her long-winded reassurance that she's totally important and has a very involving backstory explaining why she's here and why we should care about her.
And then the gunman that shoots her from off-screen turns out to be Scott Buck.
1st Iron Fist, now the Inhumans... who's next? The Runaways?
bionicleanime please don't give Scott Buck ideas.
I think there's already a Runaways series in the works.
You son of a...
bionicleanime I actually kinda liked Iron Fist. Not perfect, but not terrible. Certainly better than this.
This is the one series I don't regret getting into. Oh I tried, but I found myself not being able to watch just parts of the first episode aired on TV because ABC did a terrible job reminding people this would be on the air.
I believe I came up with a term you can call this (alleged until finished) piece of trite: A Bart Simpson Book Report. It's when they take a quick look at the source material but miss the details so important you wonder why they even tried in the first place
4:27 is that mike pence
That´s fair if you wait to watch the rest. I am just confused how this could happen when it sounded like the Inhumans was a great part in Agent of Sheild. I have sadly not watched anything from that show but know a few things. Did they die? Were none of them related to the royal family?
Thank you for taking one for the team. I couldn't watch past the second episode. Speaking of inhumans, will you ever review Agents of Shield? I stopped watching it at some point maybe after season 2 as it just lost my interest. And I have no idea why that happened. You have a great talent for explaining things like that.
How many episodes of Agents of Shield are the Inhumans in?
Can you do a video on what you would want to see in the next Spiderman Reboot
Killing a character that's featured in the promotional material early into a show's run can be effective. Just look at Cliffjumper in Transformers Prime as an example. He was killed on-screen in the *first episode* and was featured in the packaging art for most of the series' toyline run.
As for storyline stuff, Cliffjumper's death showed that TF Prime was not afraid of shying away from more mature themes such as mortality and dealing with the loss of a loved one (for Arcee, anyway.)
Agree with you on that one.
Yeah....... no, I rather stick with the inhumans from shield than these losers.

The thing is that the Inhumans from S.H.I E.L.D. made a good effort to sympathize the Inhuman race and now the Inhumans on their own show seems really racist.
TheRichRoom oh the irony
Agree. The Inhumans on AOS make way more sense to me storywise.
I'm surprised you didn't bust Iron Fist.
Anyway, it looks like they took far too many elements from other better Marvel properties. The otherworldly royal society of Asguard plus the secret city of Wakanda.
First, I get the MCU setting up the Inhumans as Mutant surrogates in the AoS (especially with how people were forced through terragenesis thanks to Hydra), but then introducing this society on the Moon muddies the waters. Maybe if they were given closer ties to the Kree that could help, like the more Kree than Human Inhumans are meandering their way to Earth due to the boom in Inhumans would make sense. Hell, they could have roped it into AoS with the secret Inhuman society of season 2 (I think it was season 2).
Second, up until now the face of the Inhumans for the MCU was Quake aka Sky aka Daisy Johnson. And she is nowhere to be seen in this. What makes the other Marvel properties work is some sort of connection, be it Coulson for the pre-Avengers movies, Coulson for AoS, Agent Carter for her show, or Claire Temple for the Netflix universe.
Third, if this is meant to set up the next season of AoS (the last episode had a cliffhanger where they are in space), then this was a poor prelude.
For what it's worth, I think the show is actually pretty good; from what I've seen. I mean, it may not have effects that are in the same league as the films but it's still exciting.
The only two complaints I have are the following.
1. Why remove Black Bolt's iconic mask? Isn't that thing like a sort of...royal mantel or something
2. While I have no qualm about the race of Gorgon's actor. Why make him so smooth in the face and head?
As I recall; in the comics, he has a full-faced beard and long hair
Na verdade o Karnak não tem o poder de sentir pontos fracos, ele não passou pelo teste.
Ele treinou artes marciais e desenvolveu esse sentido.
I did and I miss Jack ! :(
God this sucks, especially since Marvel TV shows have been really good in this year alone, The Defenders was kickass, both Legion and The Gifted are amazing, Big Hero 6: The Series looks great so far and I have pretty high hpoes for Cloak and Dagger.
It also has Jessica Jones, Daredevil, and Luke Cage
Wasn’t Lucille green?
So you going to review the rest of the series erod?😏
What is your favorite movie
The Blockbuster Buster have you seen Legends Of The Hidden Temple before?
You should do a legends of fandom on most wanted I herd that sow got cancelled because of Inhumans for some reason
Oohh, is that a new hammer? Or did Lucille get a makeover? Also, WHEN DID YOU GET A KILL -SAT?!
Who's Scott Buck?
The BlockBuster Buster can you bust 1995's Casper movie, Fat Albert, Mr.Magoo, Popeye, Yogi Bear and the Dennis The Menace film.
Mr. Magoo, yogi bear and Fat Albert I understand but Casper is not that bad as the live action Popeye film is actually pretty good.
Chris Brasel Nostalgia Critic reviewed it so it must be bad.
Critics don't determine what's good and what's bad. They're just people stating their personal opinions. You should watch the movie and decide for yourself how good or bad it is.
Unless it's something like the cat in the hat film than you should just read the book instead.
Erod's not your personal review machine.
So, we have to wait a month until your next video }:-(
Do you think the inhumans tv series is getting canceled?
It's a miniseries not a full series.
As Homer Simpson from the Simpsons Movie would say about the IMAX Experince of the Inhumans' two episode: "I can't believe we're paying for something we can get on TV for free. If you ask me, everybody in this theater is a giant sucker, especially YOU!"
BLOCKBUSTER BUSTER IS BACK! YAHOO! Dont worry, we understand your economic problems, just keep going with your awesome videos.
By the way... You really hate that Snyder guy... He, he...
I love the series honestly
I heard somewhere that the inhumans are going to be in Ms. Marvel. Hopefully it’ll do them much better justice.
You should review Lois and Clark. That's a good tv adaptation that should help wash out the bad taste of this one.
When it comes to TV and Movies you can have 3 ways: if you want it to be good and want it fast, it's not going to be cheap. If you want it good and cheap it's not going to be fast. If you want it fast and cheap it's going to suck.
You know a show is bad when I find the villain is the most human character in the series
It's sad that this show isn't very good, but all we can do now is move on and hope that the next Marvel movie or show is good. And maybe Marvel will manage to redeem the show in season 2(if it gets one), and they'll learn not to give projects to Scott Buck until he gets better.
8:41, She dies... *repeats several times*
Nailed it.
6:42 It's so annoying when they do that -_-
Powerglove’s x-men cover for inhuman’s review
Oh this gone be good.
Reached 7 minute mark and I'm going on record to say that episode 3 onward isn't that bad a show. It isn't The Inhumans, as they probably should be portrayed, and it is on the lower end of the quality and entertainment (just better than Daredevil season 2 or Ant-Man), but it isn't bad. They are getting into Mutant X level or Alphas level.
Gotta love his shots at DC when at all times. At least he doesn't bring up the Dark Knight Rises anymore
