Clint is afraid of Kingpin because he can hurt the only things he actually cares about... namely his family. Clint doesn't really care about himself. in fact, I think he deeply hates himself. The only thing he views as valuable about himself is what he's able to protect. His wife and kids redeem him. Without his family during the Snap, he reverted back to what he actually views of himself in isolation: a horrific monster worthy only of killing. As terrifying as demon dogs and homicidal robots may be, worst case he dies. He, in his mind, put his family beyond those terrifying beings reach. Kingpin is different. While not a fraction as "powerful" in the cosmic sense as a Thanos,, he is significantly more threatening in a terrestrial way: he would be more likely to be able to get to his family. This is what Hawkeye fears more than anything. So it makes sense he'd fear Kingpin most of all, despite facing literal gods and aliens.
He was jsut able to stay protected enough from Ronin. He is just that powerful in terms of control of organized crime. I could see the snap creating an opportunity for him to gain even more power and influence.
“Can’t believe Hawkeye is afraid of the big guy. He’s fought horrible things…” cut to the horrible haircut 😂 you got me editor. I laughed too hard at this.
I think Hawkeye is scared of Kingpin because it endangers his family. Someone like Thanos or Loki wouldn't track down his family but Kingpin absolutely would.
Good point actually I also think it is because he'll hold a grudge, play a long game and pretty much owns NY, so he can pop up anywhere, anytime to do an "it was me all along! Rah!"
I feel like it's kinda dumb still since I figure Avengers/Shield would have some protection thing going on, unless they go for Kingpin having the ex-Hydra guys too. Would be cool to have Kingpin bring back some previous villains and stuff like Justin Hammer Drones or super soldier types.
@@MaestroJericho dunno, I think that would be more of the same. And SHIELD is no more, though they did try to hide his kin. Which is why Kingpin knowing about them is so unsettling for him. And also; part of the threat of Kingpin lies in that such things are an annoyance for him at best. Irrelevant mostly. The thing that always impressed me about Kingpin is how he can be a viable threat for people who go toe to toe with gods on a bi-weekly basis. As an as-normal-as-normal-can-be-in-marvel human. Which is what they seem to be aiming for here. Hope they are succesfull at it, cuz if vinnie D manages to pull that off you have a villain that's a credible and relatable threat.
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of seeing different people get snapped away/back. I wonder if any eternals got blipped? I wonder if a celestial could be dusted ?
That child that the ex-widow had adopted makes you think about how screwed up the whole situation is though. Not to mention the amount of people that would just re-materialize on freeways and train tracks. A couple of thousand elderly cruise ship passengers just materialize 100ft over the middle of the ocean. They'd be heaps of airline passengers wishing they dematerialized with a parachute, for a couple of minutes anyway.
@@jaxr2958 it was said by kevin fiege on a reddit ama that anyone who was in a dangerous area/situation (so mid air where a plane used to be, or in the water) were blipped back safely.

Peter mentions in engame that he thought he "passed out for a second" because he blinked and suddenly dr strange was standing over him. So yeah we've had mention before that for the snapped its like no time had passed at all.
And the world doesn't change as they return, we are seeing a physical representation of what her brain is perceiving as she is brought back from nothing. The colors literally peeling and repainting right before our eyes was a very cool effect.

The Black Widow post credits scene takes place the morning after Clint and Kate decorate the tree. Eleanor calls Valentina (or Fisk to call Valentina) and puts a hit out on Hawkeye for getting her daughter involved in his fight. Valentina approaches Yelena in Ohio at Nat's grave to go after Ronin/Clint and feeds her the lie about Nat's death. So Yelena must have gone to NY right away pissed off. She can't hurt Kate (mother's orders). The real question is where is her dog Fanny and will she meet Pizzadog?
An excellent idea. But the post-credit scene clearly does not take place in late December in Ohio, it looks like spring (leaves on trees, Valentina bothered by allergies).
@@logandh2 just figured the scene with Val says a hit was put on Hawkeye is the morning after Eleanor made her sus call right after meeting Clint. The big issue with this is Val having a picture of Ronin unmasked when that info in the hands of Fisk or Eleanor is a game changer.
@@debestcanadian I don't know Ohio, so youre probably right, but having Clint publicly exposed as Ronin months earlier would break the whole show, and Yelena would have had tons of time to kill him.

@@debestcanadian Could be fall. My allergies are particularity bad that time of year as well. Also southern Ohio would stay greener/warmer longer than great lakes region.
If Swordsman turns out to be a good guy, he can be Kate's teacher like he is for Clint in the comics, because in this series Kate and Clint's role are somewhat reversed Kate being the goofy one while Clint being the more serious one. It could be a cool nod to Clint's origin in the comics imo.
Yeah I think it can lead to him legit hiding his skills unless you're experienced like Kate and Eleanor/Kingpin genuinely unaware of his skills, leading to him wrecking whoever gets sent to kill him.
I'm guessing Kate's mom wasn't snapped, and she wore a mask while working as a bad guy for Kingpin and wanted to set up Swordsman as the murderer/Ronin to get Echo to kill him so she'd get his company for Kingpin while closing up the loose ends of echos dad being set up at the same time. It fits the superhero always fighting the evil version of themselves trope, since she'd be similar to Ronin but lost her family due to the Avengers failures and went full bad.
It seemed like Clint was pretty aware that he killed Maya’s Dad when he confronted her so the Swordsman framing probably isn’t accurate but I like the rest of it
Something that feels very well done is this episode releasing the same day as Spider-Man and both being set at the same time, and this episode even mentions the "New & Improved Statue of Liberty"
I assumed the one in the beginning who didn't need to be unbrainwashed was from Natasha's era. Less brainwashed and more trained but still with a contingency in her so she couldn't rebel.
id imagine it might just effect people differently. Like, its a space alien from Titan using cosmically powered stones to wipe out half of all life in the universe. id imagine there might be some variation in how it works lmao
I don't remember seeing any effects for the blip from the perspective of the person being dusted. Spiderman was just videos of people being dusted, and I think in Wandavision we also saw Monica get dusted from the outside perspective.
Maybe it's like the magical space cloud from fantastic four and it has personalized effects for your triumphant return. I like to think I would form out of a swirling cloud of shit
I like to think that the Hulk was very instable and wasn't focused during the snap, due to the power of 6 infinity stones flowing through him, so everyone came back in a different and random way.
I kind of like how Clint never said his name in all the buildup. It ties in to the first season of Daredevil where you didn't even want to whisper his name around other people.
Collings, I don’t know how you do it, or how long it takes to source the video from the episode, but some of these edits are just amazing. Lining up character reactions/emotions/dialogue to match or at least reflect whatever James and Maso are saying is just mwah 👩🍳👌💋.
Kingpin will be dangerous because the whole city respects him for his part in keeping things under his control during the Blip. They don't understand that he is also behind the chaos. But Hawkeye knows there's a lot of people that will rally together for him.
I kinda wanna see previous MCU villains brought back under him, like Justin Hammer drones or ex-Hydra guys like the elevator guys Captain America fought.
I think the place where more Netflix crossovers are most likely is the She-Hulk series. Both because she and Matt are lawyers but also because of the general vibe of anything She-Hulk related.
Collings has bloody out done himself this week, what sort of madman has time or patience to edit in extra Easter eggs, the best is at 7:48 hats off mate!
I can't wait for the future of marvel where everyone's quipping and having a grand old time and it just cuts to kingpin caving in another man's skull with the door of an escalade, then punisher is tying another grenade to a soldier's severed head. For real I was more excited than anyone for Netflix marvel to come back but there might be some tonal clashing between the two universes the more I think about it.
Generally speaking, the Disney+ series haven't done character work as good as Daredevil, so I worry that the Daredevil characters won't be done justice. Still hopeful, though
I wonder if the general public would be okay with having a darker line of shows or movies. I can already see the parents whinging now. "It said MARVEL and marvel is for KIDS"
@@awesomenano99 they still had the ownership of Disney and Marvel but it wasn’t under Kevin Feiges control and was instead under Jeph Loebs. It was also able to be rated R since that’s actually allowed on Netflix unlike Disney plus
I noticed Eleanor was cleaning Kate’s wounds differently than Hawkeye had previously advised. Could this be symbolizing Eleanor not actually being best for Kate. Obviously it is revealed at the end of the ep that she’s evil but maybe this was a clue to that. Or maybe she just puts bandaids in differently.
@@logandh2 After that scene we see Kate's wound has the band-aid removed and replaced with the butterfly bandage, so I think there might be something to this! That, or the continuity people aren't doing a good job!
That is precisely what that is. It's called "visual storytelling" and Clint, instructing her how to properly dress a wound early in the series displays care and sympathy. And now that you know this information, you are able to pick up the fact that later in the series her mother, ironically, dresses her wound poorly or carelessly. So you as a viewer are supposed to go "Hey... _waitaminute!_ That's not how Hawkeye said to do it!"
@@TheBlarggle I think another element to this idea. Clint wants to do what'll fix the problem for Kate. (Solve the issues with Ronin, keep people from going after her.) Eleanor wants to "cover up" the problem (pin it on Jack, setup a hit on Clint so he can't involve her daughter more) even if that doesn't help her daughter as much. Now could this be reading into it too much? Yep. But since they already very intentionally made a deal about how a bandaid should be applied, I think it's very intentional.
@@wilsonram39 I don't think that's reading into it "too much", I think you're reading into it, for sure, but I think you're supposed to. Marvel movies and TV shows have the intricacies in there if you wanna look for them.
I got a feeling Kingpin worked with Ronin each getting something of value from the other, Clint gets names and location of underground crime organizations and Fisk eliminates the completion.
since the kingpin tease i’ve been predicting that he’d be in todays episode and that daredevil would be in spider man, coming out the day after hawkeye. would be cool to see the interconnectedness of the MCU and it’s shows tying immediately together like this. a natural next step
I theorise that Wilson Fisk is using a walking stick because he’s still a bit messed up from when Daredevil beat the living shit out of him in Daredevil s3 finale.
My prediction for the finale is a big climactic fight at the Bishop Christmas party, using the swords and bows on the walls. And then the Larpers show up and save the day
I'm still struggling with the fireman Larper looting Kate's apartment and it being OK. Looting someone's house during a fire is considered one of the scummiest crimes around. I love to hear what a genuine firefighter thinks about it.
@@jaxr2958 bruh it's the Ronin suit, he probably thought it would never be brought up or that whoever had it, couldn't possibly be the real Ronin. Cus it was in some slummy NY apartment.
@@jaxr2958 I think everything in that sequence was just written to be overly convenient. Clint finding the vehicle unattended and a coat and hat just sitting there, then not being noticed, then putting it back and again not being noticed. The business of a fireman stealing the suit was just part of that.... well i hate to say it but lazy writing.
@@Penpaper Yeah. It's the thing I dislike about 'onscreen' Marvel (as well as DC, although DC's animated is better) is they constantly sacrifice the ethics and morals of what are supposed to be super 'good guys' for a plot point. How many times has Captain America, the Paladin of Marvel beat up his friends now, every movie has the 'good guys' fighting each other more than the villains. I really wish they would put morality as first priority in these modern day fables.
I think the reason for Clint to fear Kingpin is that he will find and kill Clint's family. Thanos, random chitauri, etc are big threats, but are trying to kill him on the battle field verses hunting his loved ones.
For once, I wanna see these superhero conflicts get resolved the way most personal conflicts get resolved - with them talking it out and telling the truth. Instead of punching it out, Clint needs to tell Yelena the circumstances around Natasha's death and the "Soul for a Soul" thing. Just a 5-minute sit-down would iron everything out, sorta how Harry Osborne's beef with Peter Parker in Spider-Man 3 would've been quickly resolved if these two guys who are supposed to be best friends had just sat down for a couple minutes and had a chat about how Norman died.
It took YEARS but I can't believe the big man was finally revealed to be John Krasinski as Mr. Fantastic! That's right everyone I'm bringing the John Krasinski comments back😎
Great thought: at least one person got snapped out of reality while doing drugs in a bathroom stall, then gets snapped back into reality and someone else is doing drugs in the same stall. Probably joined in and didn’t realize what happened for a few hours.
During Black Widow, on set we'd jokingly call her Florence Pooh because she'd eat and digest her own food. She demanded that she'd do her own food eating scenes. The spit bucket was never used.
I think that Yelena wanting to take out Clint (or perhaps simply just hating his guts after Hawkeye ends), is something that’s gonna be an issue moving forward. One episode just doesn’t seem like enough time to wrap up Clint and Yelena’s issues, especially after she’s interacted with him once (Ep. 4) so far, Armand’s murderer, Echo’s own issues with Clint, and the freaking Kingpin himself showing up. Some of this HAS to be things just beginning in this show that will be resolved in a later film/show.
Was it Collings' idea to add the "Hairdresser: Dumbass" in place of Nathaniel? Whoever it was I tip my cap to you. I nearly missed it because it was so well camouflaged then I caught it at the last second and had to go back to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. Brilliant work. Well done Collings for editing that in and presumably coming up with the idea. I cannot overstate how much I love it.
9:24 I got the impression he told her he was a weapon directed at getting vengeance and Kingpin pointed him at her dad, there is no way Kazi was doing all that ninja'ing, that was definitely Hawkeye.
Since this episode spent 4 hours lingering on Kate’s first bow, I feel like she’s going to use it to kill her mom in the end. It’s Chekhov’s tiny bow mate.
Idk how anyone though she wasn’t the villain who knows the comics there was so many Easter eggs pointing to her but the fact ur mom did was pretty cool
Can't wait for the stinger at the end of next episode; King Pin stumbles into an office, defeated by the Hawk of Eyes. He is ragged, but determined for revenge. We then hear "You disappoint me, Wilson." The camera pans over to a desk where a shadowy figure sits. He stands, and the camera pans up to reveal the true mastermind behind it all, The Corn of Coblin.
Lol, it’s cuz of the way you wrote it that I pronounce the name in my mind with the emphasis on the second syllable: thus, kingPIN, some weird, uppity version of the Big Guy.
Kingpin is scary not for the physical aspect but for how clever and motivated he can get and how headstrong he is for the stuff he wants. He does'nt break the man but the world around him
Anyone else notice at the bottom of the Barton family list in Maya’s apartment it said “Hairdresser: Dumbass”!? I didn’t catch it last week but it was visible in RAWs perfect freeze frame in this vid.
*You know what I can’t believe that no one has done yet? In the scenes from Echoe’s point of view where she is reading lips there are always ellipses (…) in place of what we are lead to believe are non important filler words. So we’re not getting the whole sentence. I wonder if it would be worth having a deaf person watch and try to read their lips because it’s going to be revealed that key information was left out of those particular subtitles.*
well during Clint's phone call with Laura, they did talk about "The Big Guy" so I'm assuming she and the Kingpin know each other somehow. Also I love the idea of them betraying the Swordsman, since in the comics the Swordsman trained young Clint, hopefully we'll get to see him turn around after being back stabbed to help the good guys and end up training Kate!
Now I'm wondering what the connection between Valentina and Kingpin is... Is she just contracting with him or is he more deeply involved with whatever it is she's running?
I am sure someone has already covered it but writers confirmed the hot sauce was Florence’s idea and she did keep eating the Mac and cheese for every take…
When Clint took his hearing aid out and started speaking out loud to Natasha, for a second there I thought ScarJo was going to respond and it was going to be like her character from the movie HER 😂
Idea for a trick arrow:
An arrow, obviously that when shot breaks apart and a small collapsible bow springs out, firing a nother smaller arrow.
It's called an atom bomb
The kind of innovation we need for the future of the MCU
And then that smaller arrow breaks apart from an even smaller collapsible bow springs out firing an even smaller arrow…
I have a better idea, so you have this arrow, put it in a bow, you shoot the arrow and it kills people that way 😂
Already did that in 2012 avengers didn't they?
Can't believe The Big Man was revealed to be Mephisto all along. Crazy twist.

6:52 I had to re-watch this 3-4 times, awesome grab Raw Collings
I want a show with Hawkeye/Echo, Daredevil and Black Bolt called, Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil
Bruh
what about Punisher as well
Collings has bloody out done himself this week, what sort of madman has time or patience to edit in extra Easter eggs, the best is at 7:48 hats off mate!
I can't wait for the future of marvel where everyone's quipping and having a grand old time and it just cuts to kingpin caving in another man's skull with the door of an escalade, then punisher is tying another grenade to a soldier's severed head. For real I was more excited than anyone for Netflix marvel to come back but there might be some tonal clashing between the two universes the more I think about it.
Generally speaking, the Disney+ series haven't done character work as good as Daredevil, so I worry that the Daredevil characters won't be done justice. Still hopeful, though
I wonder if the general public would be okay with having a darker line of shows or movies. I can already see the parents whinging now. "It said MARVEL and marvel is for KIDS"
The Netflix show was still Disney Marvel lol
@@awesomenano99 they still had the ownership of Disney and Marvel but it wasn’t under Kevin Feiges control and was instead under Jeph Loebs. It was also able to be rated R since that’s actually allowed on Netflix unlike Disney plus
@@mopman_comics Disney + has star which has loads of rated R content
7:48 had me in stitches. Great edit dude
I noticed Eleanor was cleaning Kate’s wounds differently than Hawkeye had previously advised. Could this be symbolizing Eleanor not actually being best for Kate. Obviously it is revealed at the end of the ep that she’s evil but maybe this was a clue to that. Or maybe she just puts bandaids in differently.
Nah butterfly bandages are for pulling a cut together, a regular bandaid is just for covering it
@@logandh2 After that scene we see Kate's wound has the band-aid removed and replaced with the butterfly bandage, so I think there might be something to this! That, or the continuity people aren't doing a good job!
That is precisely what that is. It's called "visual storytelling" and Clint, instructing her how to properly dress a wound early in the series displays care and sympathy. And now that you know this information, you are able to pick up the fact that later in the series her mother, ironically, dresses her wound poorly or carelessly. So you as a viewer are supposed to go "Hey... _waitaminute!_ That's not how Hawkeye said to do it!"
@@TheBlarggle I think another element to this idea.
Clint wants to do what'll fix the problem for Kate. (Solve the issues with Ronin, keep people from going after her.)
Eleanor wants to "cover up" the problem (pin it on Jack, setup a hit on Clint so he can't involve her daughter more) even if that doesn't help her daughter as much.
Now could this be reading into it too much? Yep. But since they already very intentionally made a deal about how a bandaid should be applied, I think it's very intentional.
@@wilsonram39 I don't think that's reading into it "too much", I think you're reading into it, for sure, but I think you're supposed to. Marvel movies and TV shows have the intricacies in there if you wanna look for them.
The editing in this one was insane - Collings you legend
I got a feeling Kingpin worked with Ronin each getting something of value from the other, Clint gets names and location of underground crime organizations and Fisk eliminates the completion.
Every dog scene is so precious
since the kingpin tease i’ve been predicting that he’d be in todays episode and that daredevil would be in spider man, coming out the day after hawkeye. would be cool to see the interconnectedness of the MCU and it’s shows tying immediately together like this. a natural next step
The dubbing at 7:03 is so great. It's the little things.. haha fantastic editing.
This episode of Mr Sunday movies was basically just James pointing out all the ways Nick was wrong last week and rubbing it in his face
the edit where James says "hey" cut where Yelena cheerfully says "hi" is such a good edit :)
The version of Vince Guaraldi's "Christmas Time is Here" from Charlie Brown is also on the Royal Tenebaums soundtrack, interesting double reference.
Omg - Jacques and Eleanor Bishop are actually brother & sister. Eeewwww.
the fact you said idk the same time as kate very clever editing
I theorise that Wilson Fisk is using a walking stick because he’s still a bit messed up from when Daredevil beat the living shit out of him in Daredevil s3 finale.
Maybe he’ll spontaneously beat his bodyguards to death with it, in reference to the 2003 Ben Affleck Daredevil’s deleted scenes
@@FlorasMori everyone keeps calling that a picture. But there’s a video play button over it. Why didn’t they let us see the video?
This episode was crazy, loved every moment! The snap scene was so creative, could only happen in the MCU!
Would love it if Swordmaster was a total red herring and this whole time Jacque's gooberness was 100% sincere
Hawkeye’s hairdresser was a nice touch
I think Jacque is a SWORD agent or FBI or something and he's been investigating the Bishop family.
SWORD’s man.
Gottem.
This is the funniest recap yet!
The thought of Yelena Belova casually eating Mac & Cheese while intimidating an Avenger is so Funny.
James, I KEEP REWATCHING Snake Eyes to have it fresh in my mind for you to talk about it
My prediction for the finale is a big climactic fight at the Bishop Christmas party, using the swords and bows on the walls. And then the Larpers show up and save the day
I'm still struggling with the fireman Larper looting Kate's apartment and it being OK. Looting someone's house during a fire is considered one of the scummiest crimes around. I love to hear what a genuine firefighter thinks about it.
@@jaxr2958 bruh it's the Ronin suit, he probably thought it would never be brought up or that whoever had it, couldn't possibly be the real Ronin. Cus it was in some slummy NY apartment.
@@Super_Broly Lines you don't cross = Looting from disaster victims
@@jaxr2958 I think everything in that sequence was just written to be overly convenient. Clint finding the vehicle unattended and a coat and hat just sitting there, then not being noticed, then putting it back and again not being noticed. The business of a fireman stealing the suit was just part of that.... well i hate to say it but lazy writing.
@@Penpaper Yeah. It's the thing I dislike about 'onscreen' Marvel (as well as DC, although DC's animated is better) is they constantly sacrifice the ethics and morals of what are supposed to be super 'good guys' for a plot point. How many times has Captain America, the Paladin of Marvel beat up his friends now, every movie has the 'good guys' fighting each other more than the villains. I really wish they would put morality as first priority in these modern day fables.
The editor’s picks for which clips to pick is sick.
Can't believe The Big Man was
revealed to be Norman Osborn all
along. Crazy twist.
Man Nick and James made me laugh so much this video. Thank you guys I really enjoyed the video and appreciated the laughter!
I think the reason for Clint to fear Kingpin is that he will find and kill Clint's family. Thanos, random chitauri, etc are big threats, but are trying to kill him on the battle field verses hunting his loved ones.
Another amazing edit, especially at 7:50
For once, I wanna see these superhero conflicts get resolved the way most personal conflicts get resolved - with them talking it out and telling the truth. Instead of punching it out, Clint needs to tell Yelena the circumstances around Natasha's death and the "Soul for a Soul" thing. Just a 5-minute sit-down would iron everything out, sorta how Harry Osborne's beef with Peter Parker in Spider-Man 3 would've been quickly resolved if these two guys who are supposed to be best friends had just sat down for a couple minutes and had a chat about how Norman died.
As a man who has seen better call Saul them casting the guy that plays Lalo was a great idea to make us think he's evil
Some crazy response time guys! Thanks for the constant grin inducing content lol
the edits on this one are amazing
It took YEARS but I can't believe the big man was finally revealed to be John Krasinski as Mr. Fantastic!
That's right everyone I'm bringing the John Krasinski comments back😎
I'm surprised Lalo's massive superhuman jump from Better Call Saul hasn't been edited into these videos
Great thought: at least one person got snapped out of reality while doing drugs in a bathroom stall, then gets snapped back into reality and someone else is doing drugs in the same stall. Probably joined in and didn’t realize what happened for a few hours.
omg I had that exact mighty max 8:50
During Black Widow, on set we'd jokingly call her Florence Pooh because she'd eat and digest her own food. She demanded that she'd do her own food eating scenes. The spit bucket was never used.
Florence Pooh XD
Can we just appreciate Collings finding a clip of Hawkeye WITH a big sandwich? Art.
I think that Yelena wanting to take out Clint (or perhaps simply just hating his guts after Hawkeye ends), is something that’s gonna be an issue moving forward. One episode just doesn’t seem like enough time to wrap up Clint and Yelena’s issues, especially after she’s interacted with him once (Ep. 4) so far, Armand’s murderer, Echo’s own issues with Clint, and the freaking Kingpin himself showing up. Some of this HAS to be things just beginning in this show that will be resolved in a later film/show.
I think Clint is gonna die saving Yelena somehow.
Echo is getting her own series so some of her plot lines may remain unresolved for now
Love the aunty Donna clips collings
Was it Collings' idea to add the "Hairdresser: Dumbass" in place of Nathaniel? Whoever it was I tip my cap to you. I nearly missed it because it was so well camouflaged then I caught it at the last second and had to go back to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. Brilliant work. Well done Collings for editing that in and presumably coming up with the idea. I cannot overstate how much I love it.
How perfect is that big sandwich clip?
"She said she is Natasha's sister."
"Yelena".
"Yes".
Wait, why you agree? She did not tell you her name Kate!
She might've. There's a short scene between her deciding to sit down and her being done eating.
She's a teen blindly agreeing with whatever her hero says, its not that hard to believe that a character made an illogical jump in logic.
Hawkeye might've fought monsters, but those won't go after his family, Kingpin will, so that's probably the reason Clint's more afraid of him.
Maybe it’s just me but I swear Yelena looked like a *completely* different actor / person.. I dunno.
Maybe it was just the corn of Coblin in a mask
When she had her hair down, she looked totally different. It may have been a wig.
Her makeup and styling is pretty different compared to how it was in Black Widow. I like it a lot better in Hawkeye, it's less harsh.
17:38 He brough it back!
What a champ!
9:24 I got the impression he told her he was a weapon directed at getting vengeance and Kingpin pointed him at her dad, there is no way Kazi was doing all that ninja'ing, that was definitely Hawkeye.
Since this episode spent 4 hours lingering on Kate’s first bow, I feel like she’s going to use it to kill her mom in the end. It’s Chekhov’s tiny bow mate.
Chekhov’s tiny bow
@@RicardoMoralesMassin Chekhov’s tiny bow
My Mom actually predicted the twist about Kate’s Mom being the real villain, so kudos to her!
Kate's mom is the real villain and your mom is the real hero!
Idk how anyone though she wasn’t the villain who knows the comics there was so many Easter eggs pointing to her but the fact ur mom did was pretty cool
It was pretty obvious
Honestly, the more I watched Jack and the more it pointed to him, it felt a little too obvious and kinda vaguely pointed to her mom for me
My dad and I called it as well
Just so exciting to hear you cats do your thing. Always a Shrekingly good time.
Can't wait for the stinger at the end of next episode; King Pin stumbles into an office, defeated by the Hawk of Eyes. He is ragged, but determined for revenge. We then hear "You disappoint me, Wilson." The camera pans over to a desk where a shadowy figure sits. He stands, and the camera pans up to reveal the true mastermind behind it all, The Corn of Coblin.
Lol, it’s cuz of the way you wrote it that I pronounce the name in my mind with the emphasis on the second syllable: thus, kingPIN, some weird, uppity version of the Big Guy.
Kingpin is scary not for the physical aspect but for how clever and motivated he can get and how headstrong he is for the stuff he wants. He does'nt break the man but the world around him
Anyone else notice at the bottom of the Barton family list in Maya’s apartment it said “Hairdresser: Dumbass”!? I didn’t catch it last week but it was visible in RAWs perfect freeze frame in this vid.
*You know what I can’t believe that no one has done yet? In the scenes from Echoe’s point of view where she is reading lips there are always ellipses (…) in place of what we are lead to believe are non important filler words. So we’re not getting the whole sentence. I wonder if it would be worth having a deaf person watch and try to read their lips because it’s going to be revealed that key information was left out of those particular subtitles.*
Can't wait to see the laser sky battle trick arrow.
The real Big Man is the friends we made along the way.
well during Clint's phone call with Laura, they did talk about "The Big Guy" so I'm assuming she and the Kingpin know each other somehow.
Also I love the idea of them betraying the Swordsman, since in the comics the Swordsman trained young Clint, hopefully we'll get to see him turn around after being back stabbed to help the good guys and end up training Kate!
Laura is 100% Mockingbird
Mac & Cheese:
"I hate this, but I'm still eating it."
Might just be the perfect tagline
Now I'm wondering what the connection between Valentina and Kingpin is... Is she just contracting with him or is he more deeply involved with whatever it is she's running?
I am sure someone has already covered it but writers confirmed the hot sauce was Florence’s idea and she did keep eating the Mac and cheese for every take…
When Clint took his hearing aid out and started speaking out loud to Natasha, for a second there I thought ScarJo was going to respond and it was going to be like her character from the movie HER 😂
That conversation scene between Kate and Yelena was so good!
