One of the the most odd things for me about L&T is that it drew on many of the story beat's from the run Jason Aaron wrote in Marvel Comics for 7 years -- and his name isn't in the credits. Most of the main artists he worked alongside are credited, but that he's not makes me wonder if he simply didn't agree to be credited? Or I simply missed it and he was credited?
Feel sad that Thor's rogue gallery has been squandered on the screen -- Malekith, Kurse, and Gorr deserved better. Gorr should have had a two-parter, at least. Ah well.

Watched latest episode of She-Hulk. Was the weakest episode (for me) so far. Still fun though.
Spoiler!
Disappointed no Matt or DD yet, although the reveal at the end was pretty awesome.
I feel a bit like I'm yelling at the clouds here, but it's pretty crazy to have to wait an entire week for a 15-min episode. Why it wasn't released all at once is beyond me. Like, we could have binged the entire season in the same time it takes to watch a movie.
I can't think of a more gripping show I've watched, perhaps ever, than The Bear.
The sheer chaos and claustrophobic energy just suck you in, and most of the characters are intriguing or likable in at least some way.
I dont know why this is in the Disney thread, but as I mentioned in the other thread, The Bear seriously gave me 'Line-Cook PTSD.'
There are many moments where I had to pause it because I was getting traumatic flashbacks and just a shiver of I dont even know what to call it, fear?
I've never seen a show just so relentless, it just mashes the gas after the credits and never lets up. Even when the characters are having a smoke break it doesnt let up on the viewer. I almost feel like I need a smoke...and I dont smoke.
That show is just a lot. I had to stop watching it in the evenings or I'd be too amped to sleep.

I'm wondering why "all at once" or "one episode per week" are the only options.
Why not release an episode twice a week for example? Or every three days?
A faster pace would serve a series like this perfectly.

I can see it. Some people seem built to excel in that kind of work environment. I have a meltdown when the doorbell and phone ring at the same time, so probably not me. But I like to think that I could've hacked it out in that environment once upon a time, and I suspect that's part of the appeal of the show on my end.
Probably that wedding one was my least favorite of She-Hulk. Beyond it being just boring, and non sensical. The fight scene looked awful, and the CGI still continues to be 90's. I know this is supposed to be an action comedy, but it was pretty blah. Oh well, there are going to be missteps.
