Kamala Khan, a teenager growing up in Jersey City and mega fan of the Avengers, feels a little out of place at school and sometimes even at home. She is determined to attend Avengercon, even if her parents won’t allow it. But what starts off as a Captain Marvel cosplay competition takes an unexpected turn - is she becoming one of the super heroes she’s always looked up to?

Please drop Kenobi today. Oh. My. God.
Loved your timing and introduction to your sponsor this episode
My niece is half-pakistani, she almost cried from happiness watching this (according to my brother). Representation matters
I thought it was just very sweet that all three of you related to having immigrant parents and the struggles of growing up in that kind of household PLUS being a comic book nerd at that age. Speaks to the universality of Kamala’s story!! This is I think the strongest opener of all MCU Disney+ shows thus far ⚡️
I'm a 34 year old dude, I feel old and jaded... and boy did I LOVE this episode !!
It's so beautifully crafted, everything is so adorable, relatable and endearing.
Also Iman Vellani is a 1000% perfect casting choice. Like... pretty much born to play this role. God dang.
For real what good casting she is perfect for the role
The teenage day-dreamy aesthetic they're going for is just so well crafted. I'm really into it so far.
Yeah it's giving me sm Scott Pilgrim vibes
@@Rik_K1 Exactly! Love it!
I mean it is Disney they should be able to do this right 😂
@@GageTrue lol that reminds me, are we not talking about Disney full on flexing by name dropping Vader and Mulan in under 10 minutes?
@@sergioburmester5547 haha yeah there like we own it all so we can reference it all
I’m a 55 y.o. white fellow, a 50 year Marvel fan, and every time I read a comment about how important this representation is for people, it threatens to bring tears to my eyes. These heroes are and have always been for everyone. I love that Marvel is ignoring the whiny diaper brigade who think there’s something wrong with it, that this somehow goes afoul of what Marvel has been all along. It doesn’t. This is exactly Stan Lee’s vision.
Also so far it’s clear that marvel does it with respect on representing without feeling like pandering
@@madtitan0825 What’s even cooler, and I’m seeing Muslim people talk about it too, is that Marvel isn’t handholding their speech/language. Like explaining what words mean (like the word ‘harem’, most know by now since it’s the more common word but even with other words they don’t dissect or say what it means, just the family having every day conversation). Props to Marvel
@@SpiderManMCUniverse see like they just know what they’re doing, marvel makes these heroes relatable that people around the world would be like hey I know that, for example I’m mandarin so watching Shang chi is just a very different experience, and especially that whole scene where Shawn went to Katy’s house like the custom and how the family interact it’s basically pretty standard stuffs happening around my house it’s just 🤯
@@SpiderManMCUniverse In other words, they're writing a Muslim Pakistani-American family as a Muslim Pakistani-American family, rather than as a White Folks' Intro To Muslim Pakistani-American Families.
@@IceMetalPunk Indeed friend. It is truly beautiful. Hopefully more shows finally do the same and hire the appropriate directors/producers/actors/writers as well when they decide to make a show/movie focused on culture/religion. Kamala here just happens to be also be a hero but the family moments are still just as very heartwarming.
And hopefully Moon Knight showed people they don’t need that ugly Yellow filter in media that isn’t set in /America lol.
THANK YOU. Pretending we can't identify with teenagers is ridiculous. Pretending like the only thing that can be good is leaning only into dark stuff is equally ridiculous. It's always good to revisit the feelings we had when we were young. It helps us recognize that shit in younger people. And of course, it can still be entertaining while not going too dark because the MCU doesn't only need more darkness to evolve, it needs more style which Ms Marvel has. This genre bending stuff that the MCU has been doing more and more is fun, it evolves it, and it's great that there are people who recognize that like you guys
Iman Velani (who plays Kamala) was interviewed this morning on Good Morning America and she really is just like Kamala Khan. A lifelong Marvel movie AND comic fan and excited beyond belief that she is playing a Superhero.
Also I love how this show actually looks like it is from the point of view of a teenager! Especially white the awesome homemade animation style.
Totally agree! And I have to say… I see you in the comment sections of a lot of Marvel and Star Wars content and you always have something positive to say. I find myself agreeing with almost everything you say and it’s nice to see someone else enjoying things for what they are. There are a lot of really negative opinions out there recently. Keep it up!
As a middle aged British Muslim guy this show resonated with me sooo much! I’ve seen some people say it’s aimed at teenage girls but her troubles are universal. The immigrant family vibe is so on point! Those were literally my parents! Lol. Honestly one of the best first episodes of any Disney+ show to date for me.
I can’t believe this is Iman Vellani’s first acting job. She nailed it. She’s perfect as Kamala Khan 👍
Marvel casting crew has real super powers to find the perfect fit for each roles
What a great actress. She's definitely got a bright future ahead of her. While I thought she was good, and the visuals were good... this show really wasn't my cup of tea. My teenage daughter is thinking of watching it. She might like it.
Another victory for Sarah Finn Hailey !
the scene where Kamala defends that girl she doesn’t even know is so relatable, i’m from a brown family and the amount of times i’ve defended a stranger when my parents/relatives/neighbours gossip about and judge those said strangers is uncountable. i am always ready to shed blood for my innocent strangers, you wanna get to them, you’ll have to kill me first!!!
My god I relate to that lol
@@powderedwiglouis1238 maybe you should go to england and discover yourself
we're all defending our fellow brown fellas somewhere
I just loved the first episode. The show seems so different from all what we've seen in phase 4. Finally something to cheer up with after a bunch of depressive series
As a Jersey City native and alumnus of the high school that Coles Academic is based off of, I absolutely adore the representation! Super excited about the potentiality.
And Me as a Marvel Fan & a Pakistani Living in Karachi City,
Dude I can Relate to this Show on Another Level ❤️
Like I don't even have words to Describe de Relatability I felt while Watching de Show.. I went Emotional 😭
It was Like I m watching My Parents in a Marvel Show ❤️ omfg
And I was Laughing & Smiling on All Brown Family Jokes..
I still Can't Believeee
I just can't say anything more Man
They nailed de Representation! 💯👌
This show was so much fucking fun. She is KILLING this role. Also love how much they show culture, family, the differences are amazing and feel so real I love it man. The actors playing her parents are doing fantastic this show is fun I hope the youth really go up for her.
Shes so likeable and natural. Best casting they couldve gone for
Opening scene and I was already fully committed to Kamala's story.
I just love that marvel chose to combine the cultural seriousness of growing up in an immigrant household with the looseness of being a child who loves the hero’s we grow up with. It seems like the creative freedom is there and I’m excited to see where they explore with Ms marvel in the coming episodes. Y’all killed it with the reactions and I can’t wait for more to come, much love
My favorite little touch in the episode was the graffiti during the credits, it was all artwork taken straight from the comics. This was so.much.fun. And seriously, kudos to Iman and the rest of the cast for absolutely nailing the feel of G. Willow Wilson's amazing story.
They nailed the spirit of the comics. Iman is just another perfect casting choice. Wow. Can’t wait for the rest of this show.
i also felt a lot of possible ADHD representation here, with all the references to her spacing out, and losing track of time, forgetting little things. a lot of clear executive function issues. especially with how these things get misinterpreted by parents, teachers, and the rest of neurotypical society.
I LOVE that Marvel just said, "Oh, we can't use Peter Parker with Kamala? No problem, when just introduce "Bruno" who is basically a Peter Proxy." It's an AMAZING workaround.
Bruno here is pretty much exactly the same as he is in the comics. But yes, hopefully we'll see Peter interact with Kamala at some point since Miles isn't around yet.
I kinda thought i would, but yeah i loved it. This show was not made with me in mind, and yet it resonates with me in so many ways. I not only am looking forward to the rest of the episodes, but am also super hyped for the eventual crossover with Carol and Monica. Good.Stuff.
See I was so excited the show was coming. But I was really scared it wouldn’t be great. I was so pleasantly surprised
I didn't know it felt so good seeing your culture, music represented on screen
I've heard similar things about Moon Knight with its Egyptian ties
I freaking adored this pilot episode.
I've never understood the pushback against this series.
I've been excited for this show since it was first announced.
I cannot wait for more.
see.... 'target audience' is just an excuse....what that matters is A GOOD STORYTELLING. This was such a breath of fresh air after the heartbreaking obi wan episode :)
Watching this threw me back 10 years. There is SO much I can relate with in this. The animated imaginations, all of that. I kinda wish I had seen this with 15 but I'm just as happy to watch it with 26 :D
I loved this first episode. I'm 27 and it made me feel like a kid again seeing the MCU heroes through a kids eyes. It was visually stunning and innovative and hilarious, reminded me of Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World. Had a lot of fun and can't wait to see the next episode.
After Hector's comment about a young Peter Parker, I remembered that 40 years ago in the comics, Peter was already in grad school. You have to go back more than 50 years to get Peter in high school. (This August is the 60 year anniversary of Amazing Fantasy #15.) Even in the Amazing Friends cartoon in 1981, the heroes were in college.
In the early Marvel years, characters aged in almost real time. It wasn't until the 1970s and 80s that their aging slowed to nothing.
Peter Parker was in high school for such a short time in the comics. I wished the movies weren't so focused on his high school years.
@@cliftonconnor9389 Sounds like you clearly never even read Ultimate Spidey comics to say something like this. lmao
@@zeroskaterz92 You are correct. I outgrew comics by that point.
This first episode was a lot of fun. Iman is a wonderful actress with tons of talent and I loved how much CULTURE was actually in this
As a male in my 40's, the way they portray her imagination reminds me of when I was in grade school. It felt awesome tbh. Felt like I'm not alone. Someone else thinks like me. I used to imagine Spider-Man swinging besides and Flash running beside my car as my parents drove me to school. When Capt Marvel was flying next to her after the driver's test, that grabbed me.
As a captain marvel idolizing Hindi speaking brown girl, you have no idea of the joy I have for this show, for this character, and especially for Iman.
I'm actually finding the show and the actress quite delightful. I have a soft spot for coming of age and clash of culture stories. While spiderman homecoming had an 80's john hughes vibe, ms marvel has a more modern teen coming of age feel. A good comparison would be a tv-pg version of netflix's never have I ever.
This legit felt like the comic come to life! I know I was never the target audience for this show but I loved her comic so I feel like this nailed it. Can’t wait for more. And to answer Hectors question of her Peter Parker moment, she does have one. Her dad ends up having a heart attack and they find out he has a underlining heart condition so at one point she has to make a choice, be a hero or be there for her family. It gives you the feels but at the end I think Tony helps out with her dads condition if I remember correctly so not as permanent as Uncle Ben.
I legit LOVED this premiere. It's probably my favorite out of all of the Disney+ Marvel premieres by far. Really loved how the show gave like Into The Spider-Verse vibes through the graphic comic book art effects to the main character being this awkward teenage student who is obsessed with art and of course, thought the tone was appropriate for a character like her which felt refreshing in the MCU especially after we had Moon Knight and Multiverse of Madness. It's also awesome to see a group of fans finally get a chance at representation in the MCU through having this solo project featuring a hero who's like them and have the rare chance and opportunity to have their family's culture and background explored in a way never before properly. I really envy these fans because I want to know what's that really like to have a solo project featuring a hero who's like me and gets to explore my family's culture and background in a non-stereotypical proper way. I know that we already have America Chavez in Multiverse of Madness and are about to apparently get Namor in Wakanda Forever being influenced by Mayan/Aztec culture but we still don't have confirmed projects featuring them. And I already know we're getting Blue Beetle next year and....yeah, I'm not counting El Muerto lol. It would be really nice if we finally had a solo project in the MCU featuring a Latino lead hero for once especially since all these other groups are getting their chance at representation in this franchise.
This was so fun. I know I’m not the target audience, but still…Ms. Marvel was charming as hell. It was a fun mix of Edge of Seventeen and Scott Pilgrim. More, please.
I liked it it felt different than any other series.
If you had fun watching it, I would definitely say you were the target audience :)
Or, maybe there is no target audience. They are just telling the stories
Agustin you are so right, this show is completely relatable. If you relate to Spider-man Homecoming you should relate to this. All of those critics that say it’s a show for kids I say it’s a show for everyone that follows teens. Best first episode of an MCU series in my book.
I loved everything about this show, it was a total palate cleanser for me, after Loki, Moon knight , Dr Strange...which had heavier dramatic imagery. This one was light, charming, the visual graphics on point, it had humour...nostalgia ( of growing up, especially in a immigrant family) it was very refreshing. Lastly Iman Vellani was perfect in this role... the future is bright with Iman and Vivien Lyra Blair ( Leia) ..both great cast choices
Yeahhh, the vibe I get from her parents is the totally believable one of: they think she's still 11 or 12. Or they think their lives were easier when she was that age. Kamala may be ready to grow up, but her parents are really not ready for it. If she'd been 11 and asked to go to AvengerCon and they gave her the "2 hours, Dad goes with you, you wear this" she probably would've been happy to say"Deal!" But at 16, it *is* humiliating. The Kamala in their heads is at risk from so much, they can't see that she *is* competent and capable-- not helped by her daydreaming getting her in trouble, or flunking her driver's test. Understandable! But not fair. I like everyone in this family!.... I just want to give them family counseling or something. :) Love you guys' teeth-gritted reactions to the cringe-moments for Kamala.
Great pilot to the point it felt like watching a movie. The casting of the MCU overall is pretty good but with Kamala? They found her. The visual langage and the coming of age vibe (which I'm fond of) is really working for me. So far so good big thumbs up (pun intended)
I like the energy and the performance of Iman. So far my hopes were met, I'm looking forward to see the development of her character and I can't wait till she meets the Avengers for the first time.
Very surprised by this show! Great production design and acting
Absolutely loved this episode! This is the show I was least excited about and I think it had the best intro episode. Looking forward to The Marvels so much more now!
Loved this. Loved the way it was filmed aswell! These directors are also doing Batgirl, so i'm hyped!
I sound like a Gwen Stephani song but I have been friends with Masden's mom since high school. We have been watching the family enthusiasm build for months since her tall redhead got rhe gig! I love this artistic MARVEL interpretation of the story. Fun! Thanks for watching with us guys.
Not Pakistani but I grew up with a black christian conservative mom who wouldn't let me wear leggings outside because it was too tight or allow me to go to the movie theaters because it was too secular, so yeah relating to Kamala super hard
Oof. This hit HARD! I related to this show SO MUCH
This series had me TRIGGERED! The amount of times I heard my mom say the same sort of things to me about going to places I wanted to go (anime conventions, gaming conventions, etc) had my skin crawling. Plus, when Kamala is in the car and her mom is like, "I'm sorry you aren't going to be able to help me with all the things you promised"...that is some deep rooted trauma she is setting up.
Was very hesitant to watch because i let myself be hesitant because of other people’s reviews, but when i finally watched it, i loved it! Great camera work and just great energy coming from this show!
Cultures are represented with respect…like stepping into someone’s home. Inside jokes the people being represented will understand. Now a generation grows up knowing there’s more to superheroes than white dudes! And the women aren’t exploited, they are empowered. Thanks to Black Panther for kicking things off!
Ms Marvel has the best first episode in any Disney+ Marvel show so far, and it's not even close. The show looks AMAZING.
Not gonna say I was super excited for this show, just with everything else that has come out lately but this show is a lot of fun! I love how creative it is! I love the animation on the wall while they are riding bikes and the way they show the text messages. I’m really excited for the rest of this show!
I feel like they got some child-actor casting ideas from Taika Waititi, well known for casting a person who embodies the character, rather than an actor who might be able to pull it off. She is Kamala in every way in the actor’s backstory, too. I’m looking forward to the rest of the series!
Oh, the parenting in this show gave me PTSD flashbacks as well. The controlling, inquisitive, "I know what's best for you" bs with the constant guilt tripping and emotional blackmail.
Also, cool facts-the actor whom they got playing Kamala's dad is actually the Hindi voice actor for doctor strange when the MCU movies get dubbed in the Hindi language in India.
And....the opening song when the ms marvel title, is actually a song from a tamizh movie(which is my mother tongue) and the person who sang the song is one of the most respected and most celebrated singers, S.P.B. he passed away a while ago and hearing his voice was kinda bittersweet.
SPB ❤️
I was VERY impressed with this first episode. I love Kamala, I love her parents, and the art direction was incredible.
This show is so vibrant and fun I’m so excited for this! That first episode was so unique! The people who are trying to bomb the reviews without even seeing the show are literally so stupid, This was soooooo good
I'd recommend Hector read the Ms marvel civil war 2 tie in for a more deeper story of Ms marvel. It's one of my favourite arcs of hers. She has to stand up and fight back at Captain marvel for locking people up. She learns she has to be her own hero and that maybe carol isn't the hero she thought she was. It's a big arc for her which causes some problems for her and her friends. It's like her "Responsibility" moment. "I have to protect the people of my city. Even if it means protecting them from you". Ms marvel 2015, issue 7-11. It's what I'm hoping we see in the marvels.
Great reaction guys!, i wasnt expecting to like her comics as much as I did, but now she's one of my favourites. I've always loved the more character focused drama stories and the show looks like its really captured it.
I love the touches of 80s teen movies (Ferris Bueller, Better Off Dead, etc.) in this show.
The first shot of the Ramen plates. I almost thought it was a photo proof of Hector finally cooking. But then the brand logo came in 😄
That scene with the big Hulk, little Hulk lets me know people don't know about She-Hulk yet!
This episode was so good. I really like the portrayal of the high school and neighborhood. The set doesn’t have that pristine brightly lit feeling that seems either artificial or like you have to being living in an incredibly affluent suburb. It’s a little more down to earth and real.
Also, the kids in the high school aren’t these over exaggerated characters. There is isolation, stigma, being an outcast, but not to the point where kids look like villains and everyone is organized into these perfectly separated groups with no overlap or dimension.
I love the friendship and budding romance. It seems really genuine. You can imagine they’ve been friends their entire lives and that they this opposite family experience that sort of compliments the way they see the world.
This was an amazing first episode. She is the perfect choice for the role. She makes it look effortless. So creative and fun and can totally relate to her parents... They blew away my expectations
I think the word to describe Ms. Marvel is refreshing. I thoroughly enjoyed myself watching it. That's all I ask: Entertain me for 30-45 minutes and you did your job.
Zoe getting hit by mjolnir is like when Regina George got creamed by that school bus.
I was pleasantly surprised. Something about this show’s production feels so tight, idk if it’s the camera work or what but you can tell the show runners care a lot and want it to be as authentic as possible. Sure its a teen/coming of age story and there’s tons of those, but the way this package is presented kept me engaged the whole time. Also the interactions with the mom reminded me of my own mother and I was laughing a lot cuz of how accurate it is 😂 Hope the whole series continues on like this! ALSO so glad the aesthetic and “scott pilgrim” ish style wasn’t just in the trailers and throughout the whole show. The little world building and expanding of the MCU in fun ways without any big events feels good. The way they presented the text messages is leagues beyond a lot of movies 😂
Agustín having a lot of vietnam flashbacks there! Jaja same!
That segue into the ad couldn't be anymore perfect lol...I like this show, a stage of our lives we can all relate to.
I was raised in a very different environment (Italy) where school is different so I have no real hands-on experience of what she goes through but parents are parents are parents everywhere so yeah, I get her. That said this show has started with a bang, I loved it. And you guys Adam, Hector and Agustin made it even more brilliant with your comments. Agustin, you stole the show this time, you cracked me up when you said "get out of my face" if people felt too old and felt judgy about this show, you said it all 👍🏻
Didn’t know what to expect watching this show but it did give me very TGIF vibes. Like Boy meets World.
Those scenes with her parents made me think about those awkward moments I had growing up having to ask my parents for something when I knew the answer would be no. Or they would compromise by tagging along 😠. But I’m thankful for those moments now.
I'm never going to shut up about this; Ms. Marvel is the MCU Lizzie McGuire I never knew I needed. Now all we're missing is a little animated Kamala jamming around.
An America Chavez And Ms. Marvel Crossover MCU Movie Would Be Fucking Awesome !!!
I just love watching episodes with u guys! lol
Does anyone notice that Nakia commented on her video?
i had tearings randomly flowing when i saw the first official trailer, and i had tears again during the montage early on when kamala and her mom are shopping around. there's an urdu song "Ko Ko Korina" that my mom sings ALL the time, and here it was on a Disney+ show in a montage. so IMMEDIATE tears lol
This might be my favorite first episode of an MCU show!
How many people caught the Trust-A-Bro moving company truck at the end credits? Would love to see Kamala Khan and Kate Bishop interact. Throw Yelena in and it's a party!
And America can bring them the pizza! :D
i remember reading the comics the first time and finding kamala very relateable even tho the only thing i had in common with her was being female and a former high schooler. and i was hoping that would be one of the things they translated from the comics and they really did. Like who hasn't been where she's at at at least one point in thier life? Everything about this show was charming. I think i had a smile on my face the entire episode. There were some changes from comics to series but the vibe of the source was there and the changes worked. i'm excited to see the next episode.
Do you think the Ant-Man head falling on the model ship in the pool is a nod for Avengers films knocking out Titanic in the box office?
I've only watched the first two episodes of this and I love it! This is such a great show so far. I love the actress portraying her, she is so amazing!
First generation Filipino here. I was suffering from the same PTSD as you guys were, and your reactions were all so spot-on and hilarious!
I've been saying it since NWH, Agent Cleary is giving off INTENSE OUT OF THIS WORLD skrull vibes ;)
P.S. A very small percent of me wants to believe Kamala's friend is skrull but idk if Marvel would go that dark here xD
Ancestral planes was my first thought, too.
LOL the popular girl getting smacked with the hammer was hilarious LOL, total Mean Girls style physical comedy.
the sponsored segue of this episode is *chef’s kiss*
Loved this first episode. I noticed just how much they are introducing us to her ethnicity and her culture. It’s giving us her views as a teenager and as a Pakistan child of immigrant parents which I love.
That ad transition from Adam was top tier hahaha ! come on immi give that man a shield ! I mean a raise...
When watching this it genuinely felt like the comic came to life, I'm a big fan of the character and Marvel are already doing a great job. Still mixed on the power change but it's only the first episode. Would also love to see her interact with Loki and Wolverine one day cos those were my fav reads (edit: Iman is so so so good in this role)
That dad went to take one of the most sad showers ever lol
I am LIVING for you all relating to the experience with having immigrant parents. Was not expecting, but I love seeing when an aspect of a show really hits someone.
The music is perfection with her mind set.
Can I point to how weel you put the sponsor in XD
Very promising start for a Disney+ series since WandaVision or Loki.
or moon knight
the scene where the mom blamed the dress for being too long, then when her friend came and commented that kamala is too short for the dress and she agrees, it's typical of asian moms. conform to the crowd to not appear rude at the expense of your own family. and that is a great subtle addition to show how her mom is. concerned about the society's judgement of them than letting her child grow and bloom.
Nawww Adam saying she would be hella dead legit had me laughing out loud LOLOLOLOLOL loved the episode!
I loved this episode!!! It's fresh, relatable, and doesn't feel heavy to watch.
God I want to hear that Scott Lang podcast right now lol
Could the authority figure from Damage Control try to get Ms. Marvel to contact Spiderman? In doing so, she gets in contact with Captain Marvel? Could Ms. Marvel get involved with SWORD. Leading Ms. Marvel to meet Proton? So many ways this can lead into the movie.
I love her family, her father and brother the most
The animations going on around her to illustrate her thoughts was so cool. Iman Vellani is so good in this. I was skeptical about this show and I'm not familiar with Ms Marvel, other than in the games, so this was surprising. It was fun and Iman has so much charisma, she's great.
I love how the mother is the strict one and the dad just wants to be the cool dad who does the right thing for his family. I dated a girl in high school who was the daughter of Italian immigrants. Her dad and I got along great, but her mom would make the odd snide remark about me ("you need a bad boy/nice Italian boy") and one day, I got a call saying she "felt different" and "I'm starting to think about my future." Those are conversations as a guy that you never want to have with a lady. And having grown up in a South Asian community as a minority white guy, this felt like high school to me. I knew people like Kamala Khan. I guess it helps that Iman Vellani is Canadian.
I like all the little nods to Marvel in the show. I feel like the writings a little over the top when it comes to the adults and the way they treat Kamala. At the same time, I feel like I relate to her so much. Head in the clouds, everyone telling her to figure shit out. I really want to see where the show goes. Cant wait for more episodes.
Ridiculous that y'all ain't crossed 100K Subs by now!
