She had more of a will to be a good fighter because she didnt wanna be scared anymore, she could be manipulated like Hawkeye said.

Says a person who is deaf and blind to what is happening in Hollywood and the West in general. A Controlled Opposition is a protest movement that is actually being led by government agents. Nearly all governments in history have employed this technique to trick and subdue their adversaries, notably Vladimir Lenin who said, "The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves." Reverse psychology is a technique involving the assertion of a belief or behavior that is opposite to the one desired, with the expectation that this approach will encourage the subject of the persuasion to do what is actually desired. *“[T]he useful idiots, the leftists* who are idealistically believing in the beauty of the Soviet socialist or Communist or whatever system, when they get disillusioned, they become the worst enemies. That’s why my KGB instructors specifically made the point: never bother with leftists. Forget about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. [...] They serve a purpose only at the stage of destabilization of a nation. *For example, your leftists in the United States: all these professors and all these beautiful civil rights defenders. They are instrumental in the process of the subversion only to destabilize a nation. When their job is completed, they are not needed any more.* ....They will be lined up against the wall and shot.” -Yuri Bezmenov, 1985 So the pendulum swings, now violently, now slowly; and every institution not only carries within it the seeds of its own dissolution, but prepares the way for its most hated rival. William Ralph Inge "Democracy and the Future" The Atlantic Monthly (March 1922) Disney (the corporation) is controlled opposition. They use the "useful idiots" (Social Justice Activist actors/writers/producers/directors) to assert Marxist ideologies with the expectation the majority of the population will do what is actually desired----That is, go the opposite direction towards Conservative ideologies. The current "Liberal" Marxist institution prepares the way for Conservative Fascism.
Her power in the comics is so much cooler, she’s supposed to be like a female taskmaster but ofc the creator of the show said oh those powers were lame so we made her have any power that suits the plot, shit is a pile of dog shit… smh Disney
There's a massive plothole in this series that no one addresses...why the fuck don't they heal Echo's deafness & peg leg? They clearly can heal injuries.
Kingpin would never tell Echo to kill him. Why are these writers acting like Fisk cares THAT much about her? Did they forget that his true love is Vanessa?
she was just supposed to be his replacement though it clearly wasn't attraction between like like he was looking for a partner. which could have worked better if they had actually bothered to show him being motivated to find a replacement so that he could be with vanessa. Even the setup of him running for politics was so lazy. just literally make that be his motivation now because a person on the tv told him so. These writers are just a whole other level of bad.
"Oh, no! We couldn't possibly suggest that a woman who has to be an ultimate fighter, and battles badguys every day be totally fit!! Nor can we cater to male audiences by not sometimes casting the average Walmart shopper! That would hurt feeeeeeeelings!!!!!!!!"
Not just female Superheroes,Female Characters in general I miss bring beautiful and feminine in the West they r ugly and look like men. At least Japan is still making Fictional Women beautiful.
Yeah it's like Holywood forgets that sex sales. Sure I always believe that talent should be more rewarded than just looks but if you play a superhero you gotta look the part. This Echo actor looks way too chobby and her fecial expressions kills any likebility this character might has.

When it started, I actually thought it was going to be decent. And then as the episode one proceeded, I was left a bit confused because it seems as though we were missing huge chunks of information.

Disney really should have used echo to really showoff how powerful the kingpin and daredevil are to establish the characters as badass. Instead, they bitch out both characters handicapping the show everyone is actually looking forward to.
This is what "A Camel is a Horse made by Committee" means. When you get a bunch of suits to try and mesh a bunch of "Relatable" shit in, without any thought to character, you get a mess. We aren't making "Strong Female Characters" anymore, we're trying to get actors to try and portray a world salad of buzzwords. Noriko from Godzilla Minus One, is leagues better, and has far less screen time. She can't punch through walls and doesn't have a long speech were she owns the men or anything, but there's a wonderful, endearing kindness and determination to her that resonates throughout the whole story.
You gotta love how the writers take originally better written villains to shoehorn into their garbage tv series because they can't come up with anything themselves. Thanos has been completely destroyed in What If and is a shell of what he was in the movies. Kingpin is the same, practically unrecognizable after Hawkeye and Echo.
Glad I didn't decide to watch the show. To think Echo could hold her own against Daredevil or Kingpin is absolutely insane. There's no way her martial arts are on par with Daredevils and no chance in hell she could stop Kingpin from just squeezing the life out of her. It's a damn shame what they're doing to the Marvel Multiverse. The craziest part about it, is they already have amazingly written stories that have been loved for decades.
The Punisher's an expert hand to hand combatant who's seen actual war and I remember the Kingpin absolutely demolishing him in a fight in the Netflix show.
The Kingpin is now become The Kingsimp. At least I'm happy that Daredevil had one episode and no more, beacuse i can not even imagine what they would do to him. Also, unlike the comics, they made Echo another generic Mary Sue: In the comics she possesses Photographic Reflexes, an ability also possessed by the mercenary known as the Taskmaster. As a result, Echo is capable of perfectly duplicating any physical movement or action she sees with perfection after watching it only once. Meanwhile in the series she has the plot inducing power of Ancestral Evocation: The ability to call upon the strength and skills of her fellow ancestors. - Photographic Reflexes: As a child, Lopez discovered she could mimic another person's movements. She perfectly copied another - karate student's technique and used it against another student. - Ancestral Communication: Maya can communicate to a degree with her deceased ancestors, such as her mother. - Enhanced Strength: To be added - Memory Recall: Through her powers, Maya can recall the memories of her ancestors and witness events that they went through. - Healing: Through her mother, Maya possesses the ability to heal a person's mental scars by entering their minds and visualizing their past traumas. However, for this to work permanently, the person must also want Maya’s help, as seen when she attempted to heal Fisk but had to convince him to let her help him give up his rage and pain, in these cases the effect of that power is temporary and less effective. I mean why we need Daredevil when we have Echo, she is a fusion of a hospital and a dojo.
It says in the Wikipedia article about thise show that the actress thought the characters Photographic Reflexes ability was "lame" and was glad it was removed from the character. So the fans have no say in this. Even though that's an ability the audience would love to see portrayed well. Likewise in Heroes there was a woman who had photographic reflexes - and she just does a few fight moves in one scene, and then she's off the show. The man from the watcher org gives her a bunch of videos with various movements that could be useful for her to remember. I'd love to see what skills he included and how she imitated those. But no.
If anything, the Native American ancestral powers is even lamer, due to how overpowered it can be and how the powers themselves are whatever the plot needs them to be, and the show even sucked at portraying it.
When I watched Echo I just felt so bad for Vincent D’onofrio. When you see HIS acting and how he is giving all of himself to this role and Alaqua’s grimaces (I can’t call it acting). It’s awful Next problem: fight scenes - awful. Why they couldn’t hire people who choreographed fights for Daredevil?? Why? Next problem: Alaqua Cox Girl CAN NOT act Girl is chubby, doesn’t look like superhero sorry not sorry And of course I am pissed that they changed her origin from comics I don’t know who said to Alaqua that she can act and why they did that
Eh he agreed to do it so I feel nothing for him, he should of told them NO or better yet use some of his power and tell them to change some shit or no deal.
I wouldn’t be surprised if that was true which is dumb asf, they should’ve hire a real actress to play the role, someone who can actually act and has experience, not because of race and disability gosh marvel cares more about identity politics and woke crap than storytelling and good writing I’m sick of it
of course. because the reason there is no "native american cinema" for these people to have "representation", is none of them were interested in it enough to create their own movies/shows. so there aren't many native american actors, never mind ones who are also deaf and one legged. so they had to go with a person who isnt an actor, even with the child actor you can tell from the credit at the end, that they just worked with the actual people of the tribe, and they got them a bunch of people who weren't actors. So its pretty much like troll 2, a bunch of people who live in a town where the filming is happening get to be in the film because they're conveniently there. There lead actors is in the movie because she's checked all the right boxes, not because she can act. and they didnt bother to give any of them acting lessons.
@@ge2719 the notion that there are no native american actors so they "just grabbed some people from the tribe" is way off base and completely incorrect. The actresses playing Echo (both adult and young) are real life cousins and its true neither have any other acting credits (which is definitely a strike against the show); however the actors playing her family and the other supporting characters are well established actors from across the United States and Canada. Some of them such as Graham Greene and Tantoo Cardinal have well over 100 acting credits to their names and most of the others like Devery Jacobs, Chaske Spencer, and Cody Lightning each have acted in over three dozen projects.
Do not feel sorry for Charlie Cox for Vincent D’Onofrio. They read the script, signed the contract, and cashed the check. They are equally as culpable as the rest of the makers of this shyte.
Could’ve casted Jessica Matten as Echo. She definitely resembles Echo from the comics. Maybe some practicing of sign language and some physical training. She would definitely get the character.
If I win the lottery, I’m going to invest in creating my own indie entertainment business company. Films, TV Shows, comics, graphic novels, video games. I can come up with better storytelling than HollyWoke. 💯
@@shelovespizza9636 👍 You bet! I’ll start by making original low budget horror movies and work my way up to making original superhero comics and graphic novels like Eric July is doing, maybe do a comic series that’s an original Sci Fi space opera, maybe do some indie horror games that UA-camrs could do let’s plays of. Endless possibilities!
My latest kick is going to the IMDB and comparing old good shows like Daredevil to Secret Invasion and Echo. Look at the credits behind the showrunners and writers. Daredevil writers tended to have 50+ credits for single episodes, and 100+ for the upper tier consistent writers and showrunners. Meanwhile Secret Invasion and Echo are averaging 0-4 credits for experience and the showrunners have like 4 shows between them, and only a few seasons at that. Plus the old writers had genre experience, unlike the new ones.. it explains everything.
He does review good shows and movies too. Actually he gives way less spoilers on the good shit he reviews because he wants you to watch it. As opposed to the other crap he reviews where he gives you the spoilers to save you the trouble.
I’m excited for Disney to become so desperate that they allow Netflix to have its Marvel shows back and go back to receiving checks in the mail from them. By the way, Disney can keep Echo because that trash is not canon to The Defenders pocket universe. 💯
*Strong Female Lead 2004* : Katee Sackhoff as gender swapped Starbuck. Superb. Believable. Flawed. Imperfect. Worthy of respect. *Strong Female Lead 2023* : Katee Sackhoff as Bo-Katan in The Mandalorian. Where to start... As newly introduced character Bo-Katan, Katee inexplicably had to rescue the inexplicably now-clumsy and inexplicably dumb titular character of The Mandalorian continuously, on the second such rescue in 5 minutes seeing a bad special effect that inexplicably meant SHE was 'the one' to reunite Mandalore according to the inexplicably all female inexplicably ethnically diverse and inexplicably helmetless Mandalorian upper management who then accepted the titular character back into the fold on condition he kept his helmet ON and she could leave hers OFF, and suddenly The Rando-lorian became the face of The Mandalorian in KK's new publicity posters alongside a trashcan that may or may not contain Pedro the voice actor, previously known as Mando *The* Mandalorian. *At that point I cancelled Disney+ and you can see from the first line I wrote that it has NOTHING to do with strong female characters, it's even the SAME actress but with a script aimed at this 'modern audience' they can't seem to find.* They always weaken the males and make the females SUPER overpowered with NO explanation and it isn't necessary because *The Expanse managed to make EVERYONE look good,* and we absolutely loved the tough Belter women, some of us a little TOO much. Anyway, I later learned that Pedro handed the woman who stole his show his testic- his sacred weapon (kinda the same thing really) because She Is Now The One. My 2c? *THIS IS NOT THE WAY*
Shouldn’t have watched Ms Marvel ( actually couldn’t watch all of it ) Shouldn’t have watched Secret Invasion ( shouldn’t have hung in there ) Didn’t watch the Marvels Was absolutely ready not to watch Echo Will not watch Marvel until Peltz has slain the Iger Dragon Will not watch Marvel until Feige is gone Hoping Mr Peltz will return Marvel to the control of Mr Perlmutter
The MCU and especially disney plus shows are now just a slow 2015 royal rumble with everyone chanting Daniel Bryan and booing while the disney execs stand stunned and hopeless in the ring
Vincent D'Onofrio is so above this. Dude is one of the most underrated actors of all time. From Full Metal Jacket to The Cell to Men in Black. He has been sublime in everything he has done. But, money i guess?

The only thing i do is pity her for having a mother who doesn't heal them being deaf. Wonder whatever bullshit explanation they come up with for that.
It's slacktivist propaganda to rile up brown people against evil hwhite people who stole their land, nonsense by tapping "ancestor power". This is godless paganism/ racebait propaganda.... par for Disney 💀
@@DarkSun123456789tbh my personal opinion is that it's meh/alright. I kinda prefer this instead of that cringe ms marvel sh*t. We all know the female characters will never die probably tbh and they will somehow end up winning against Dr Doom or some stupid sh*t.
You know I am starting to think they changed her taskmaster powers not because they were 'lame' but because the actress can't do anything physical that it'd demand and they rather just have her stand there and CGI blowy bits onto her hands.
The fact they dragged king pin into this over what he could have done for the mcu
Its called paycheck!
Remember ladies: you don't have to TRY or even be a good person.
You victimhood and anger makes you heroes :D
To anyone who gets mad at reaper for making the fire water joke, I would just like to say im a mechanic and anytime I get in a native's truck (and yes its a pick up truck everytime), there is a bottle of fireball sitting in the door, center or glove compartment lol. Hell one guys entire back cab was nothing but empty plastic mickeys of whiskey.
@@Anoneemus_Noenayme tbf i only have like 9 or 10 native customers, but its a 100% clearance rate that theres a bottle of hooch somewhere in that truck lol
It’s more of a laughing at us rather than with us joke. And it’s the same joke told for a century, firewater. After a certain point the joke becomes unfunny? You know how white dudes got tired of being painted as the bad guy or a joke after about a decade of it? Imagine people are still doing it 80 years later.
Once again Disney have destroyed a better character (kingpin) in an attempt to elevate their lack luster character.
it takes real skill and effort to make shows so bad. It's like they are screaming "fire me already!" but disney is deaf and blind.
Says a person who is deaf and blind to what is happening in Hollywood and the West in general.
A Controlled Opposition is a protest movement that is actually being led by government agents. Nearly all governments in history have employed this technique to trick and subdue their adversaries, notably Vladimir Lenin who said, "The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves."
Reverse psychology is a technique involving the assertion of a belief or behavior that is opposite to the one desired, with the expectation that this approach will encourage the subject of the persuasion to do what is actually desired.
*“[T]he useful idiots, the leftists* who are idealistically believing in the beauty of the Soviet socialist or Communist or whatever system, when they get disillusioned, they become the worst enemies. That’s why my KGB instructors specifically made the point: never bother with leftists. Forget about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. [...] They serve a purpose only at the stage of destabilization of a nation. *For example, your leftists in the United States: all these professors and all these beautiful civil rights defenders. They are instrumental in the process of the subversion only to destabilize a nation. When their job is completed, they are not needed any more.* ....They will be lined up against the wall and shot.”
-Yuri Bezmenov, 1985
So the pendulum swings, now violently, now slowly; and every institution not only carries within it the seeds of its own dissolution, but prepares the way for its most hated rival.

Disney (the corporation) is controlled opposition. They use the "useful idiots" (Social Justice Activist actors/writers/producers/directors) to assert Marxist ideologies with the expectation the majority of the population will do what is actually desired----That is, go the opposite direction towards Conservative ideologies.
The current "Liberal" Marxist institution prepares the way for Conservative Fascism.
Bullets don't work. Lightsabers don't work. Sarlaacs don't work. Death doesn't work. Disney doesn't work.
Agreed. Absolutely nobody should watch Echo, because that's exactly who it's made for, like all modern Disney films: nobody.
Because if you’re not an deaf, NA, female amputee/ the show isn’t for you. Therefore it is written for nobody.
Finally a show starring a deaf, chubby indigenous woman with super epic powers and stuff.
Not interested 😒
Her power in the comics is so much cooler, she’s supposed to be like a female taskmaster but ofc the creator of the show said oh those powers were lame so we made her have any power that suits the plot, shit is a pile of dog shit… smh Disney
Woke characters get woke media.
There's a massive plothole in this series that no one addresses...why the fuck don't they heal Echo's deafness & peg leg? They clearly can heal injuries.
If her mother had the power to heal....Why didn't she cure Maya's hearing? 😂
Being deaf has its pros(don’t have to hear people complain)and cons, and some are born deaf
I'm French but Reaper's accent expresses perfectly how I feel about this show LOL.
Kingpin would never tell Echo to kill him. Why are these writers acting like Fisk cares THAT much about her? Did they forget that his true love is Vanessa?
I would say yes, they likely forgot lol. Or they probably never knew in the first place. SMH.
she was just supposed to be his replacement though it clearly wasn't attraction between like like he was looking for a partner. which could have worked better if they had actually bothered to show him being motivated to find a replacement so that he could be with vanessa.
Even the setup of him running for politics was so lazy. just literally make that be his motivation now because a person on the tv told him so.
These writers are just a whole other level of bad.
They are probably just copying the end of daredevil season 3 because they can’t come up with anything new.
I miss the days where female superheroes were hot af.
"Oh, no! We couldn't possibly suggest that a woman who has to be an ultimate fighter, and battles badguys every day be totally fit!! Nor can we cater to male audiences by not sometimes casting the average Walmart shopper! That would hurt feeeeeeeelings!!!!!!!!"
I miss the days where famale heros weren't girl bosses.
Not just female Superheroes,Female Characters in general I miss bring beautiful and feminine in the West they r ugly and look like men. At least Japan is still making Fictional Women beautiful.
Yeah it's like Holywood forgets that sex sales. Sure I always believe that talent should be more rewarded than just looks but if you play a superhero you gotta look the part.
This Echo actor looks way too chobby and her fecial expressions kills any likebility this character might has.
She could be average looking with a good story and it would be fine.
😂😂😂😂 You were the sixth person that convinced me to watch this. I started watching your video and I thought to myself foolishly, " surely it cannot be that bad. Surely."
When it started, I actually thought it was going to be decent. And then as the episode one proceeded, I was left a bit confused because it seems as though we were missing huge chunks of information. Then it just evolved into sheer madness. The finale was the icing on the cake and oh my god I laughed so hard 😂
Hey Alteori! 😄
When will you learn that I'm always right
@@RealReaper hey reaper I want to ask you a question even though you're probably not going to respond or even see this reply, but I want to know why you make content like this, what I mean by that is, in my opinion, it's pretty bad and hard to watch because it sound like you're just mad that a minority is in the media you watch/consume, even though that might not be the case, I just want to know why you make your content sound so spiteful against shows/movies that often times are objectively "good" and why you only target show/movies that have minority leading roles or significance. I also want to state that I'm not trying to be hateful or bitter I just want to understand your line of thinking
Disney really should have used echo to really showoff how powerful the kingpin and daredevil are to establish the characters as badass. Instead, they bitch out both characters handicapping the show everyone is actually looking forward to.
When the agenda is " bash all men " I'm not surprised. Not happy but not surprised.
This is what "A Camel is a Horse made by Committee" means.
When you get a bunch of suits to try and mesh a bunch of "Relatable" shit in, without any thought to character, you get a mess.
We aren't making "Strong Female Characters" anymore, we're trying to get actors to try and portray a world salad of buzzwords.
Noriko from Godzilla Minus One, is leagues better, and has far less screen time. She can't punch through walls and doesn't have a long speech were she owns the men or anything, but there's a wonderful, endearing kindness and determination to her that resonates throughout the whole story.
You gotta love how the writers take originally better written villains to shoehorn into their garbage tv series because they can't come up with anything themselves. Thanos has been completely destroyed in What If and is a shell of what he was in the movies. Kingpin is the same, practically unrecognizable after Hawkeye and Echo.
Glad I didn't decide to watch the show. To think Echo could hold her own against Daredevil or Kingpin is absolutely insane. There's no way her martial arts are on par with Daredevils and no chance in hell she could stop Kingpin from just squeezing the life out of her. It's a damn shame what they're doing to the Marvel Multiverse. The craziest part about it, is they already have amazingly written stories that have been loved for decades.
The Punisher's an expert hand to hand combatant who's seen actual war and I remember the Kingpin absolutely demolishing him in a fight in the Netflix show.
The Kingpin is now become The Kingsimp. At least I'm happy that Daredevil had one episode and no more, beacuse i can not even imagine what they would do to him.
Also, unlike the comics, they made Echo another generic Mary Sue:
In the comics she possesses Photographic Reflexes, an ability also possessed by the mercenary known as the Taskmaster. As a result, Echo is capable of perfectly duplicating any physical movement or action she sees with perfection after watching it only once.
Meanwhile in the series she has the plot inducing power of Ancestral Evocation: The ability to call upon the strength and skills of her fellow ancestors.
- Photographic Reflexes: As a child, Lopez discovered she could mimic another person's movements. She perfectly copied another - karate student's technique and used it against another student.
- Ancestral Communication: Maya can communicate to a degree with her deceased ancestors, such as her mother.
- Enhanced Strength: To be added
- Memory Recall: Through her powers, Maya can recall the memories of her ancestors and witness events that they went through.
- Healing: Through her mother, Maya possesses the ability to heal a person's mental scars by entering their minds and visualizing their past traumas. However, for this to work permanently, the person must also want Maya’s help, as seen when she attempted to heal Fisk but had to convince him to let her help him give up his rage and pain, in these cases the effect of that power is temporary and less effective.
I mean why we need Daredevil when we have Echo, she is a fusion of a hospital and a dojo.
Small correction. Kingpin is her *father* instead of a simp, but your other criticisms still apply.
Oh my god. She's just a Dune Bene Gesserit.
It says in the Wikipedia article about thise show that the actress thought the characters Photographic Reflexes ability was "lame" and was glad it was removed from the character. So the fans have no say in this. Even though that's an ability the audience would love to see portrayed well. Likewise in Heroes there was a woman who had photographic reflexes - and she just does a few fight moves in one scene, and then she's off the show. The man from the watcher org gives her a bunch of videos with various movements that could be useful for her to remember. I'd love to see what skills he included and how she imitated those. But no.
If anything, the Native American ancestral powers is even lamer, due to how overpowered it can be and how the powers themselves are whatever the plot needs them to be, and the show even sucked at portraying it.
Wokeahontas.
racist
How about Dancing With Wokes.
@@XxFall3nAnGel24 Damn you really showed him! Retard.
This might be Reapers best video yet but he has so many good ones.
her ancestral power reminds me of the "everything everywhere at once" powers.
When I watched Echo I just felt so bad for Vincent D’onofrio. When you see HIS acting and how he is giving all of himself to this role and Alaqua’s grimaces (I can’t call it acting).
It’s awful
Next problem: fight scenes - awful. Why they couldn’t hire people who choreographed fights for Daredevil?? Why?
Next problem: Alaqua Cox
Girl CAN NOT act
Girl is chubby, doesn’t look like superhero sorry not sorry
And of course I am pissed that they changed her origin from comics
I don’t know who said to Alaqua that she can act and why they did that
Eh he agreed to do it so I feel nothing for him, he should of told them NO or better yet use some of his power and tell them to change some shit or no deal.
@@danielhicks4826 yeah you are right, I just can’t with his face in the promo interview, I’m too empathic, he looked so sad 😢

According to Ryan Kinel the whale playing Echo isn’t even an actress they just chose her because she’s deaf irl, indigenous, and an amputee
I wouldn’t be surprised if that was true which is dumb asf, they should’ve hire a real actress to play the role, someone who can actually act and has experience, not because of race and disability gosh marvel cares more about identity politics and woke crap than storytelling and good writing I’m sick of it
I had heard that too. They could have at least given her the powers Echo really had. Would have made it more interesting.
of course. because the reason there is no "native american cinema" for these people to have "representation", is none of them were interested in it enough to create their own movies/shows. so there aren't many native american actors, never mind ones who are also deaf and one legged. so they had to go with a person who isnt an actor, even with the child actor you can tell from the credit at the end, that they just worked with the actual people of the tribe, and they got them a bunch of people who weren't actors.
So its pretty much like troll 2, a bunch of people who live in a town where the filming is happening get to be in the film because they're conveniently there.
There lead actors is in the movie because she's checked all the right boxes, not because she can act. and they didnt bother to give any of them acting lessons.
@@ge2719 the notion that there are no native american actors so they "just grabbed some people from the tribe" is way off base and completely incorrect. The actresses playing Echo (both adult and young) are real life cousins and its true neither have any other acting credits (which is definitely a strike against the show); however the actors playing her family and the other supporting characters are well established actors from across the United States and Canada. Some of them such as Graham Greene and Tantoo Cardinal have well over 100 acting credits to their names and most of the others like Devery Jacobs, Chaske Spencer, and Cody Lightning each have acted in over three dozen projects.

Great review : I'd sure like to watch a joint review with 'Critical drinker', 'Despot of Antrim' and 'Reaper'
BRAVE STAR power 😂 I love it someone else remembers that show. As if I didn’t like Reaper enough already. This is great
It's like building the Titanic with the iceberg rupture pre installed.
Spider-man into the spider-verse's Kingpin: Respected
Echo's Kingpin: Disrespected
Netflix: Respected
Hawkeye: Disrespected

@@ParkerCS2 I can safely say that the Dardevil movie's Kingpin is pretty good mainly due to the actor playing him.
I give that thumbnail not only a 10/10, but best thumbnail of 2024! LOL.
The thumbnail. Oh my god. Classic.
It’s so hard to believe what they have done to marvel. It’s truly unfathomable.
Hey, i have MS, thanks for including me in your video.
I feel represented.
Reaper, might I recommend the clip of Tony Soprano saying, "this is very gay". Applicable in multiple situations
2:13 “Finished an entire box of twinkies”. 🤣
“Fuck me, don't these kids have a playstation to play with?” 😂🎮
Do not feel sorry for Charlie Cox for Vincent D’Onofrio. They read the script, signed the contract, and cashed the check. They are equally as culpable as the rest of the makers of this shyte.
bro that thumbnail is funny AF
Virtue Signalling: The TV Show
Did you even watch it? Or just a good drone?
Who's echo??? I never knew that echo existed...
deaf electra knock off.
Could’ve casted Jessica Matten as Echo. She definitely resembles Echo from the comics. Maybe some practicing of sign language and some physical training. She would definitely get the character.
That amputee villain girl in Kingsman is actually better because she uses blades on her artificial legs to fight 😅
Bullets don’t kill people anymore just like getting stabbed by a lightsaber in the chest. Seems like Marvel took a page from Star Wars again 🤦🏻♂️
Yensen from Iron Man truly was one of the last mortal people in the MCU.
Marvel has The Boys approach at portraying heroes, villains masquarading as heroes.
It reflects the personalities of the people making this garbage.
If I win the lottery, I’m going to invest in creating my own indie entertainment business company. Films, TV Shows, comics, graphic novels, video games. I can come up with better storytelling than HollyWoke. 💯
Pretty please do because I’m sick of marvel dc and other studios releasing these boring woke inaccurate incoherent movie/shows lol
@@shelovespizza9636 👍 You bet! I’ll start by making original low budget horror movies and work my way up to making original superhero comics and graphic novels like Eric July is doing, maybe do a comic series that’s an original Sci Fi space opera, maybe do some indie horror games that UA-camrs could do let’s plays of. Endless possibilities!
My latest kick is going to the IMDB and comparing old good shows like Daredevil to Secret Invasion and Echo. Look at the credits behind the showrunners and writers.
Daredevil writers tended to have 50+ credits for single episodes, and 100+ for the upper tier consistent writers and showrunners. Meanwhile Secret Invasion and Echo are averaging 0-4 credits for experience and the showrunners have like 4 shows between them, and only a few seasons at that. Plus the old writers had genre experience, unlike the new ones.. it explains everything.
Man reaper i salute you I don't know if I could sit through all these shit shows and movies.
He does review good shows and movies too. Actually he gives way less spoilers on the good shit he reviews because he wants you to watch it.
As opposed to the other crap he reviews where he gives you the spoilers to save you the trouble.
@@shai310 yeah but most of the stuff he posts on UA-cam is about shit TV shows and movies although I do quite enjoy when he reviews good stuff.

I follow a lot of Utube movie Critics. Reaper is becoming my favourite. Brilliant Honest and hilarious
The best clip by far you show is the 2 second of Commando lol I can watch that movie non stop 😊
I’m excited for Disney to become so desperate that they allow Netflix to have its Marvel shows back and go back to receiving checks in the mail from them. By the way, Disney can keep Echo because that trash is not canon to The Defenders pocket universe. 💯
Actually it is arshlock. But keep wetting your panties. It's funny.

@@ParkerCS2I agree. That shit isn't worth to be considered canon
@@raven3067 yep.
*Strong Female Lead 2004* : Katee Sackhoff as gender swapped Starbuck. Superb. Believable. Flawed. Imperfect. Worthy of respect.
*Strong Female Lead 2023* : Katee Sackhoff as Bo-Katan in The Mandalorian. Where to start...
As newly introduced character Bo-Katan, Katee inexplicably had to rescue the inexplicably now-clumsy and inexplicably dumb titular character of The Mandalorian continuously, on the second such rescue in 5 minutes seeing a bad special effect that inexplicably meant SHE was 'the one' to reunite Mandalore according to the inexplicably all female inexplicably ethnically diverse and inexplicably helmetless Mandalorian upper management who then accepted the titular character back into the fold on condition he kept his helmet ON and she could leave hers OFF, and suddenly The Rando-lorian became the face of The Mandalorian in KK's new publicity posters alongside a trashcan that may or may not contain Pedro the voice actor, previously known as Mando *The* Mandalorian.
*At that point I cancelled Disney+ and you can see from the first line I wrote that it has NOTHING to do with strong female characters, it's even the SAME actress but with a script aimed at this 'modern audience' they can't seem to find.* They always weaken the males and make the females SUPER overpowered with NO explanation and it isn't necessary because *The Expanse managed to make EVERYONE look good,* and we absolutely loved the tough Belter women, some of us a little TOO much.
Anyway, I later learned that Pedro handed the woman who stole his show his testic- his sacred weapon (kinda the same thing really) because She Is Now The One.
My 2c? *THIS IS NOT THE WAY*
Shouldn’t have watched Ms Marvel ( actually couldn’t watch all of it )
Shouldn’t have watched Secret Invasion ( shouldn’t have hung in there )
Didn’t watch the Marvels
Was absolutely ready not to watch Echo
Will not watch Marvel until Peltz has slain the Iger Dragon
Will not watch Marvel until Feige is gone
Hoping Mr Peltz will return Marvel to the control of Mr Perlmutter
When they said M-She-U they weren't kidding.
Brutal and hilarious commentary
The MCU and especially disney plus shows are now just a slow 2015 royal rumble with everyone chanting Daniel Bryan and booing while the disney execs stand stunned and hopeless in the ring
“it’s a piece of shit”😂😂
Vincent D'Onofrio is so above this. Dude is one of the most underrated actors of all time. From Full Metal Jacket to The Cell to Men in Black. He has been sublime in everything he has done. But, money i guess?
I'm definitely not watching this without a bottle of whiskey nearby
I wish that Deadpool animated series that Fox was developing with Donald Glover was never cancelled. I’d rather watch that than anything Disney Marvel.
You’re the man, Bro! Fucking love your videos so much ❤
Your meme game is superb
Stunning and brave. Her algorithms are in tune to the thing that makes us all happy. May we all be blessed and veganized.
what made me even morrrrre pissed, was that Charlie Cox only got paid 3,000 for that appearance, like cmonnnnnm his inclusion was literally the only thing that lured in everyone, he should be getting more than that lol
And Fisk guy gets paid 25000 in the whole show. In fact, echo's cousin who was barely a character got paid more than he did. Hilarious.
Reaper this is the first video I have seen of yours. You are absolutely based and hilarious, subbed!
I just watched Godzilla Minus 1 tonight,... kinda hard to take anything from Disney seriously after watching it...
I love your videos man! You speak the truth and do not sugar coat it. I love it.

Bloody hell, that thumbnail gave me flashbacks of the Chatterer in Hellraiser 1987. Terrifying.^^
