Mark Ruffalo says the show's being reviewbombed on IMDB. It'd be really nice if we show him a BIPOC's thoughtful review of She-Hulk 😊 ►Odysee odysee.com/@JLongbone:3 ►Join SubscribeStar! www.subscribestar.com/jlongbone OR ►Donate! www.paypal.me/BoneyLong
"Why are you talking to me like I'm a stray horse?!" Bisch, do you not know what a Hulk is? You just trashed a $6 million lab and you're roaring like a rogue dinosaur. You're related to Bruce; you don't understand what the Hulk is like? Genius for sure.
She-Hulk: "You have no idea how hard it is to be a woman, I get catcalled!" Bruce Banner, who watched his mother be killed by his abusive father, was in a horrible accident that turned him into an uncontrollable rage monster, and now has to live with the guilt of those the hulk killed, spent his life on the run from people trying to kill him, and watched his closest friends die: "..."
I thought this was an awful scene but looking at all the clips, this is certainly the worst. this show was technically designed to destroy any remaining love for hulk esp mcu and Mark Rufallo seems to be enjoying every bit of it.
Remember those two years when he was trapped in the Hulk's body and enslaved by an alien tyrant who forced him to fight in gladiatorial matches to the death?
@@captainbeastwinger4940 Eh, it sort of is, sort of isn't. The 2003 Hulk film and the Edward Norton MCU Hulk film are sort of sequels (the planned sequel to the Bana film was reworked into "The Incredible Hulk"), which is why the Norton film begins essentially at the end of the Bana film with him in Brazil and never really goes over his origin story since it was already set up in the previous film.
That bathroom scene is supposed to be "important" but all it does is make women seem vapid and stupid bc instead of calling the police or an ambulance.....they give her a makeover and a pep talk.....
People shit on the 2003 Hulk, but it really drove home the psychological trauma that lingered with Bruce. The parents fighting, his mother being killed by his father in front of him. This She-Hulk just fucking whines and makes mountains out of ant hills.
No, the 2003 Hulk still sucks, it just sucks for different reasons than She-Hulk does. 2003 Hulk was Ang Lee punishing the viewers for his daddy issues, while She-Hulk is the product of emotionally stunted, solipsistic women.
*Bruce Banner in the first Avengers movie:* "In case you needed to kill me, but you can't. I know, I tried. I got low. I didn't see an end, so I put a bullet in my mouth and the other guy spit it out." *She-Hulk:* "BUT BRUUUUUUUUCE! You were never cat-called! It's the worst thing to happen to anyone!!"
@@totoastrn7173 what are you talking about? She said she's better at controlling her anger than bruce cause shes a woman, and used being catcalled as an example, implying Bruce's suffering wasnt as bad as hers. I literally watched the episode lmao ur a bot
@@cftncfjlphgfb wow you have comprehension skills issues she didn't say she's better at handling her anger because solely cause she a woman she said she's good at it because if she would to lash out in those moments or even show a hint of annoyance she could potentially get beat raped or killed and how was it implied she was saying Bruce trauma wasn't that bad
@@RanMouri82 but here is the thing, this would make her look good too. She was defending an innocent man who got framed by a gangster to take the heat in his place. Actual violence against a woman right there and a bad guy for the first episode.
@@blvalverde Yeah, I was baffled by the car wreck scene. Like that's it? She gets a little cut and Bruce just happens to get a little blood on it, and that's all it takes? And then she immediately turns? There's hardly any tension, no emotional impact, nothing. They wanted to get right to the point and they took the laziest way.
@@blvalverde maybe they tried to read it but they just said ; ''What the hell is the patriarchy crap, com'on girls, let's show everyone how we do it better.'' yeah, everyone in the production team are middle aged women.
This makes me miss the she-hulk from the Hulk cartoons of my early teenage years. Jennifer was a quiet, mousy, meek girl while She-hulk was confident, caring and sensual (but not sexual). And honestly, her portrayal in that show is largely responsible for my preference of tall muscular women.
I remember the episode from this show where She and Dr Strange ventured inside Bruce's subconscious to fight Dormammu(or someone else, don't really remember). Dynamic between them was interesting.
She was sexual, but that’s not a bad thing. There’s an episode where she meets up with the thing and she’s giving hardcore DTF vibes, literally saying “We’re going back to your place”.
They had so much potential for this show something people actually liked unlike captain marvel and ms marvel but they went low energy feminist bull not a comedy and it's not a legal drama
You notice little things that NO ONE ELSE I watch review this stuff notices. The voice over in the crash scene was a good catch, but the getting dresses up scene was a REALLY astute observation. I never even thought of that, but it makes TOTAL sense. Of course they couldn't have her all bruised and dirty and bloodied-up, because then the very next scene where she gets cat-called by the evil mysoginist men wouldn't have made sense. And you KNOW the writers weren't gonna drop that scene, so cleaning her up was their not-so-clever work around. Honestly, you're like the Sherlock Holmes of bad movie/show reaction channels.
According to the head writer she fought to keep the bathroom scene in the script because it was supposed to show that the womens bathroom is a female sanctum and that women in the bathroom will always look out for and protect each other. She thought it was the most important scene in the movie.
@@alzaelnext638 idk what bathrooms she's imagining but not once have i seen any ladies bathroom filled with helpful women. if anything you're more likely to come across bathrooms when women will be trash talking each other or just plain ignoring them because they have their own issues
@@personafanatic4597 Yes, but you don't live in feminist world. In feminist world women are perfect and they all get along unless they've been corrupted by men and societal expectations that make them fight and argue with each other. According to Gao she had an incident once in a bathroom where she needed help with a wardrobe malfunction and a random woman helped her out. Because that's how things work in womens bathrooms.
@@alzaelnext638 I mean, I could see that. I went into a restroom once and a lady in a stall asked if I had a spare pad or tampon and I gave her one. But like, if I went in and saw a woman covered in dirt and blood, I'd ask what happened and if she wanted me to call 911. Not...give her a make-over? J's right, the only point of that scene was to gussy her up so the men in the next scene could hit on her.
Bruce: Father beat my mother to death, the government hunted me down like a rabid dog to try to kill me, I spent so many years alone an unable to have any form of a romantic relationship, I tried committing suicide multiple times but hulk stop it, my best friend tony Died right in front of me, my only girlfriend after years died, I burned half my body using the infinity stone to bring back half of the universe Jen: yeah that sucks but have you ever been cat called? It’s the worse thing in the world! Disney really out here treating Hulks trauma likes it absolutely fucking nothing
I'm tired of being told I should feel like a victim for being female. But then I remember this is a smaller group of very loud, obnoxious people with access to means to yell across the planet. The rest of us roll our eyes and laugh about it.
All this show is doing is making women look like entitled, condescending narcissist who can’t handle words being thrown at them. Not really empowering, it’s actually sexist when you think about it.
I love that instead of calling the police or paramedics these ladies decide to put makeup on her. This was the scene the writers were fighting for because it was so important 🤦♂️ this is truly the MCU version of Batwoman 👎
Plus I think one's a dude. I'm going to play my "as a woman' card, and assert that this never happens in restrooms. You do your business in the most kosher looking stall, wash your hands and leave while having the most minimal eye contact you can with anyone else in there.
The very fact that she didn't have to experience the full alter-ego of Hulk vs. human the way Bruce did is proof enough that her invalidation of his experiences in comparison to, "Being a woman," is complete garbage. Yeah, there are plenty of women out there who go through a lot of horrible stuff, but that doesn't mean men don't and it doesn't make invalidating, belittling, and diminishing anyone's struggles and strife justifiable. In the words of Stan Lee, " 'Nuff said."
IIRC, Jen didn't get an alter-ego because she got a watered-down version of mutation, the one which only enhanced her physical abilities and looks but didn't affect her mind. So yeah, she got luckier than Bruce and always knew it, so she felt sympathetic towards her cousin who had to suffer with Hulk. It had nothing to do with her being a woman or being better than Bruce.
Sing it. I find it wild how feminists throw around the words "valid(ate)" or "invalid(ate)" like beads at Mardi Gras, among other popular pop-psychology terms, when it comes to themselves, a proxy they can project onto (such as another woman), or in best cases, a woman who has actually gone through some strife. But the second a man joins that conversation, all self-awareness goes out the window and suddenly it's as if they've never heard of those words before. The hypocrisy floors me, it really does...
2:00 How to tell that sexual revolution was a mistake without telling it. So glad to live in a such "free" world where man being a virgin is still a normal thing to insult.
I like how an alien vessel pops up out of nowhere just long enough to cause a car crash and then is never seen or mentioned again. Wonder how much they spent making the CGI for that when stock footage of a deer in the road could have accomplished the same thing
*Comics Jen:* A cool, intelligent, successful, defense lawyer who's highly supportive of her fugitive cousin, while her alter ego is a loveable, party girl and one of the funnest superheroes to have on the Avengers roster. Easily one of my top 5 classic Marvel heroes. *This Jen:* Who the hell even is this smug hangnail of a human being?
I don’t know if this will be possible or true, but they somehow made Jen worse than Captain Marvel in Civil War 2(the storyline that forever tainted her character). Civil War 2 Cap Marvel is a pretty classic antagonist-who-would-make-a-tragic-hero type to me. A villain because of her actions with ostensibly noble motivation. At least that's what I would say if she were written better, but the authors seemed to not want to commit to the bit. But MCU She-Hulk doesn't even have that. Only selfish motives underpinning vile actions. With more well targeted cruel language to boot.
She doesn't just call him smug for calling himself "Smart Hulk" right after claiming to be better than him. She's claiming to be better than one of the smartest people on the entire planet who has helped save Earth from *multiple* extinction level events, and managed to develop enough self control and introspection to find the balance with the uncontrollable rage monster that lives inside him. And then she says he's smug because he basically said that he (again, one of the smartest people on the planet), is smarter than the mindless rage monster.
It's also odd because...Bruce has never been smug? As far as I remember, he has always been very humble and isolated, even due to his habit of pushing people away, so they would be safe from Hulk. He did a lot of good things because he is a good person, and he never bragged about it. Hell, he originally became Hulk because he ran out in a dangerous zone to save a random guy from an explosion - he didn't care that he, as a scientist, was more important than some rando. So, Bruce is anything BUT smug. If you want smug, you go to Tony Stark, but not Bruce.
It's weird to me that if she's supposed to be so clever and a genius like him, that she didn't linguistically pick up that him calling himself "smart hulk" had nothing to do with her, and everything to do with the comparison to "uncontrollable monster hulk" that he once was. Oh wait no it isn't weird at all I just forgot that the writers are making her incredibly narcissistic
Marvel really is racist and sexist because all they care about is gender and race.....Plus, just because they use a "POC", therefore, the rest of us who are also "POC", must support it....apparently, i can't relate to Peter Parker because, he's white....even though, his story is about taking accountability and adulting despite the odds...I miss Marvel when it wasn't about gender or race..when it was about the character....the only good thing about she hulk is that Jlongbone will now have more videos to entertain us. she hulk sounds like it was written by a person with daddy issues.
It’s sad to remember that this will be people’s first impression of She-Hulk when in the comics, she was a good female character who actually gave a damn about Bruce and what he went through.
If you compare this to the pilot of the 70's Hulk series, you can see that it's like an entirely different world. They were actually taking it seriously and trying to make a good show.
This new She-Hulk series (not the comics) is like having a puppy you love take a dump on all your possessions including smearing it on all your old photos of them. Like... Marvel, you need a time out. You need to sit in a corner for a while and think about what you've done while I try to forget your transgressions.
I’ve had the same thought about a lot of comic adaptations lately. To the point that I don’t want to admit I like certain characters to people unfamiliar with the comics because they’ll only think of the shitty versions.
She's truly awful. A character born in spite and resentment. This is the Hollywood version of a wife banging the neighbor and rubbing your face in it. Girl Power!
What happened to actual strong and well written women characters like Rippley or Sarah Connor with actual flaws and personalities, and problems to overcome, either Hollywood is too lazy and doesn’t care to write them, or they actually think that this spoiled, tantrum throwing toddler with a lazy plot armor and aura that dumbs down every man around her, is what a strong woman looks like
Kim Wexler in Better Call Saul was one of the most badass women to come out of Hollywood in a long while. People should check it out, you'll be rooting for her all the time.
The ladies bathroom scene is so weird to me. If I saw another woman in the bathroom who looked like Jennifer did, I wouldn't be concerned with primping her up, applying makeup and shit, I'd be asking her if she needs an ambulance or the police or something. It seems like, as you point out, a way to make Jennifer look more dolled up so the dudes could hit on her outside the bar.
I gave the show far too much credit. I assumed that the bathroom scene was going to have Jen hulk out on the toilet and feel incredibly embarrassed, but the women in the bathroom help her out. But no no no, what we got was much more worse and hilariously dumb.
That scene could work, Thus I am, since you brought it up. I could see she sees the transformation of her face in the reflection of the toilet water and has a existential breakdown of her identity.
Why the fuck were they so concerned about giving her a make-over than to call 911 and take her to an ambulance?? That's the normal thing people would do if they saw a woman or a man out on the streets bleeding and covered in dirt. So misogynistic.
I like the scene where she's belittling his intelligence, when there's a movie about him and a friend creating a true AI, on a whim, over the weekend, and it being so smart it became an existential threat to humanity within hours.
Really glad to see someone finally reference the cap drinking scene. That was used as a low point in his movie that really gripped my heart at the time. But now it’s a really bad throw away joke that begins to make us question canon. Not great.
How in the hell does Marvel go from Gamora from GOTG to the Jolly Green Giant? How hard is it to ask her to bulk up and then paint her green? You. Are. Marvel. With. A . Disney. Budget!
In the comics, Jen goes from 5'10 to 6'7 when she transforms. I don't think bulking up and getting painted green would really make it feel like she went from human to hulk.
@@randomduck8679 Then what they need to do is find the tallest buffest yet aesthetically pleasing woman they can and either cgi her face into a smaller actress’s body or vice versa. I mean they did it for Chris Evans in his first Captain America movie
@@SteveSmith-ty8ko That's actually what they did -- or, a shittier version of it anyway. The CGI model for She-Hulk is based on a real-life, VERY tall and muscular woman who is credited as part of the production team (I do not recall her name at the moment). But they don't do the CGI face thing or just film the woman and change her skin, she's just a 3D model of that woman. They couldn't even do the Darth Vader thing where they get someone to play her and use her voice, or the LOTR thing where they use camera tricks and practical effects that are already established in filmmaking to make characters look bigger or smaller than they actually are. They just animated a 3D character. It's weird. Like, really weird.
It's insane how utterly incompetent these writers are. By taking away the aspect of her being a brute when she hulks out, it takes away literally any spice the character has. She literally just turns green and strong, but where is any sort of conflict, what is her weakness as a super hero? It's insanely bland and boring to take that away... and it is only done as some BOSS GURL bullshit. Bit of a post scriptum: At around the 17 minute mark, when Shit-Hulk starts to ramble on about how she can controll her anger, cause she's used to "inferior men explaining her field of expertise to her"? Yeah, that inferior man would be Bruce in that moment, as revealed by her outburst literally a minute later. Fuck this show, fuck everyone involved in making it. I hate capeshit and I only watched like 4 Marvel movies, so it's not like I'm a huge Avengers nerd or Hulk fanboy, but I enjoy decent character writing and good plots and this show, in a few scenes, is like someone pushing toothpicks soaked in chili under my fingernails.
Not exactly, She-Hulk never had the aspect of being a brute in the comics beyond the first little bit of her existence that nobody even remembers; so she never had that kind of spice. In her case the personality change was that she went from being a shy and mousy nerdy girl to a fun-loving, outgoing extrovert. She contrasted with Bruce in that she loved and revelled in being a Hulk and never wanted to turn back, even though she was still profoundly sympathetic and saddened by his own struggles. The problem with this Jen is that she doesn't change at all. She's the same bland, boring, ball-busting bitch she was with her powers as she was without them. She's not fun and whacky, she's whiny and self-absorbed.
classic/original she hulk isnt a berserker. her hulking out changes her personality, by which i mean behavior, not identity. unlike with bruce and hulk where they're two different minds, she hulk is just jen. however, when she hulks out she stops being timid, shy, mousey, and becomes confident, gains flair and swagger, as well as looking and feeling more beautiful. part of her whole schtick is that she's the only hulk whose life is actually greatly improved by being a hulk, rather than impaired.
Everyone who turns because of the Gamma radiation ends up different. Abomination doesn't have an alter-ego and can't turn back, Doctor Sansom doesn't even transforms. It created different dinamics with the characters. This show doesn't even understand that.
I cannot believe the writers and director looked at the scene where Hulk goes flying into a cliffside after being pushed by a freaking Jeep and thought "Yup, Hulk maybe strong but that's totally what would happen."
Banner should have been upset when he found out the she-hulk is in control all the time. Cause that means that she was fully aware about killing those guys at the bar, her kicks can launch boulders imagine what it could do to a human.
Watching this vs Extraordinary Attorney Woo is so jarring. Attorney Woo’s central theme and every episode is about the protagonist autism but they actually make her a character, show her struggles and show she’s only good because she studies and actually works for it, meanwhile the first episode of She-Hulk literally starts with characters praising the main character like she’s four years and just washed her hands by herself
Cousin has one arm, has the potential to be a dangerous mess, was left for dead in a car crash, "I need him to come get me!" The fuck? It's like the line was only put in to quickly sweep away the fact that she's being treated like a victim when Marky Mark Defender of Pedos was far worse off than her. Also, great comparison between herself and Hulk. Hulk gets forced into a transformation in times of great stress, like when the military is hunting him down with guns and his girlfriend is being tackled. She-male Hulk? Some guys cat-call her for looking like a slut. Disney, proving that women are unstable messes that can't actually control their emotions.
@@ravenID429 Did you mean the "Defender of Pedos" part? If so, back when Kyle Rittenhouse was declared not guilty in court, Mark, in Twitter, paid tribute to one of Kyle's attackers, Joseph Rosenbaum, who was a registered sex offender and serial pedophile.
Bruce Banner saw his father kill his mother in front of him, when his mother was trying to protect Bruce from his father, when his father was trying to kill him. Then he was in an explosion from a gamma bomb, had his girlfriend's dad try to destroy him for 10 years. His second girlfriend end her own life, to get the soul stone and he also was basically stuck in a coma while the Hulk lived in his body for 10 years. So how is getting mansplained and cat called worse than what Bruce went through? This series is hackneyed dog sh*t! Because Jennifer Walters got her gamma irradiation from a blood transfusion, from Bruce, She-Hulk's "power" was a fraction of that of the Hulk. She is faster and more nimbler than the Hulk, but nowhere near as strong. If the Hulk get's angry enough he can destroy the planet with just a step (World War Hulk)
So do the writers want it’s viewers to dislike Jen? She’s a self centered, entitled, heartless, little brat, who physically and verbally lashes out at those who offend her or are even trying to help her. There’s nothing here to like
A car crash right after a captain America virgin joke is the perfect metaphor for Marvel at large. And that in itself is the best joke marvel ever made.
I actually like the idea of Steve having never had that experience. Plays into that virtuous paladin vibe. It’s another layer of sacrifice ie he gave up having a personal life and a big human experience because he was saving the world. Plus, it makes the relationship with Peggy more special because they both waited for each other.
But virtue and abstinence is old fashioned and icky. Ironically, the people who used to complain so much about being "shamed" now shame anyone who doesn't stoop to their depravity.
It's also a counterpoint in his character to that of Tony Stark, who is openly shown sleeping with every female he can. One is a paragon of virtue and optimism, the other is an alcoholic spiraling into severe depression and self-loathing.
I still hate how they barely ever mention the effects of the snap, the world looks like it didn't change. A geat concept to explore in the show would be the legal ramifications of the snap and after the blip like people losing their homes and finances to other people because they were gone for 5 years. Like how were the not snapped people the opressed ones in the falcon. If anyone should've been in the refugee camps it'd be the people that got snapped back
The entire world be would destabilized, and then destabilized again just five years later. I was surprised they made the time skip that long for this very reason. It would be years before anything returned to normal.
It's easier to hand wave it, they kinda bring it up in Falcon and the Winter Soldier x but only to be like "Falcon wasn't even paid for being a Avenger" which...is like being in a elite unit of the military and not seeing a penny for your service. Dude saved the world, knew Captain America, but dude couldn't get a check? Or like a retirement plan?
@@ngultrum1 bruh... some people are still hanging on to the holocaust and yet they just went "eh that was a year ago" to HALF OF THE PLANET POODING AWAY?!
20:27 I can’t stop laughing at the realization that Tony left Bruce an alcohol fund but Sam is left destitute after Infinity War 😂😂😂 “Oh no I can’t not get drunk anymore” 😂 the content surrounding this misogynist mess is way better than the show itself.
I love how the MCU is now being woke af when it comes to their women characters yet it took how many years for black widow to have her own solo film after she was in iron man 2?
Honestly a bunch of strangers crowding me, messing with my clothes, and trying to put makeup on me would make me personally hulk out. Oh and that "literal get murdered" line would probably have more weight had they stuck with She-Hulk's original origins where she nearly ASSASSINATED for being the lawyer of a guy framed by a gang.
Funny how the comic book origin makes more sense than the MCU origin. Jen getting her abilities from a blood transfusion makes more sense than Bruce's blood getting into her cut. The MCU version makes it seem like her transformation would be more messy and rough.
Did you read the article where the lead writer admitted they had no idea how to write the show? And she played it off like that was a quirky little anecdote and not a damning admission.
2:57 Lets be honest that amount people pining over Chris Evans in real life would probably be quadrupled in universe for Captain America. Even if he never got any action that would of been his choice not exactly for lack of opportunity. If anything its a testiment to Cap's character that he didn't abuse his position like that. 03:10 I remember in the incredible Hulk when Bruce tried to kill himself by shooting himself in the head and the second the bullet connected with him the Hulk was already spitting the bullet out. Also in the incredible Hulk Bruce's blood ends up in a soda bottle and his blood is that toxic it killed Stan Lee in that movie
The worst part about that whole "great at controlling her anger" scene is that just a few minutes earlier she was about to kill a couple of guys for the crime of talking to her in a way she didn't like before Hulk stopped her. How is that controlling your anger?!
I know Bruce is her cousin and all - but does anyone think it weird that Bruce changed her clothes while she was unconcious? He is a Doctor but as he told Tony - not THAT kind of Doctor..
To be fair, Tony Stark didn't really have a close relationship with Sam Wilson. Sam was also against the Sekovian Accords and on the opposite side of the Civil War. Sam was more Captain America's buddy, so Tony wouldn't leave two farts to Sam in his will. Bruce and Tony understood each other and were intellectual equals, so it would make sense Tony would leave Bruce a ton of his tech and other science equipment.
I feel like a way they could've made the virgin joke work was by Jen having a bet with her friend that after taking the super soldier serum steve would've been banging every girl he met, and Jen can't believe the idea that a guy as handsome and as buff as Steve wouldn't be doing that no matter how conservative people may have been at that time. Later it would've been a shocker to her that he really was a virgin until he reunited with peggy.
I will not be able to look at Bruce's calm/mildly amused expression as Jen rambles on about how the mediocre BS she deals with as a woman makes her infinitely better at controlling her rage (all the while being emotional while stating as such) and not think that he's mentally repeating a calming mantra to prevent himself from lunging at his cousin and knocking her teeth out for dismissing all the sh*t he had to endure long before even becoming the Hulk.
It's probably already been pointed out a million times by now in the comments, but I'll add to the pile: Can I point out how much the conversation at around 2:00 in pissed me off? The fact that Steve Rodgers, a man we saw wracked with guilt over several movies about not keeping his promise to Peggy, saw her so old to the point where she didn't remember him, attended HER FUNERAL, and sacrificed himself at the finale of Endgame so he could just get the one thing he ever wanted... to grow old together with the only woman he ever loved... and it's all flushed down the goddamn proverbial toilet so Bootleg Rule 63 Jolly Green Giant here can make a "LOL CAPTAIN AMERICA VIRGIN" joke. ...and Bruce, a guy who fought alongside the man numerous times... has to just endure it because of the writers. (if I forgot anything or missed any details, sorry but I'm literally feeling my blood pressure rising while typing this if a writer had cracked a joke like this about Natasha/Black Widow we never would've heard the end of it)
When you want to write strong women, have them actually be someone likable, not someone who belittles the opposite sex just so the writer can feel accomplished. Strong women have been written before, and having her say platitudes that writers think are politically correct but just comes off as annoying.
2:09 This bugged me more than anything. Steve wasn't "rushed to the frontlines". He was denied just about everytime he tried to go into the service. Even after getting the super soldier serum, they just used him to boost the moral of soldiers. They had no intention of putting him on the frontlines, so he had to do it himself
At most companies, especially somewhere like a law firm, competitiveness is crucial to getting to a higher level in your job. It's an abuse of the system to accuse a man any time he might best you or question you that he is being toxic or sexist. If you want to be equal, grow the fuck up and use competition as a motivator to improve and better yourself. There's a great interview that Amy Hennig, one of the most influential woman in the gaming industry did where she explained exactly that and stated that she was welcomed and respected and did not feel that anyone who was cut throat was anything more than another ambitious person like herself. She got success by working hard, unlike idiots like Anita who gained success by whining and complaining about bs. The narrative this show and others are pushing is reductive and infuriating.
I miss when She hulk was a danger defying prosecutor who wasnt afraid of the mob to the point where them assassinating her was a real threat she didnt give a fuck about. Ya know...when she was cool
This "feminist" myth that women will get targeted unfairly if they lose their temper actually ignores the real problem of women not learning to control their temper. 70% of one- sided domestic violence incidents are initiated by women, most of whom were likely taught that anger is a male problem. This isn't a men vs. women thing, it's an inherent human emotion thing. But let the feminist writers go off I guess.
Incorrect. 50% of domestic violence incidents are started by women. The other %50 by men. Women are much more likely to be killed by male partners. Plus you're ignoring the 100% of mass shootings, gang shootings, rapes and beatings perpetrated by men as well. Women are not taught "anger is a male problem", but that men typically do more damage as a result of anger, which is correct. I see what you're saying, but let's not spread bullshit.
@@whyarealltaken They'll do anything they can to miss the point. Rather than agree that anger issues are bad no matter who has them and that we're ALL susceptible, its just "ew you criticized wahmen yikes"
honestly one thing im shocked you didnt talk about was the fact that Bruce didnt call out the fact that when Jen was about to kill those guys, she was still conscious. She was intentionally going to kill them!
I love how those four women who out of nowhere give Jen that on- the- spot makeover see that she's clearly banged up, yet never once bother to, you know, CALL AN AMBULANCE!
She says she can control her anger when being cat-called… Even though we literally just saw her Hulkout immediately after being cat-called outside a bar. Is a little consistency too much to ask for?
One of my favorite moments from that Incredible Hulk cartoon by BKN from the mid-90s was when Hulk was bathing in a river and was calm enough to start reverting back into Bruce. He could see the change happening in his reflection and realized right away that he and Puny Banner share the same body, which sends him into an Ude Hussain-like rage. It's such a simple thing, but it spoke volumes about the conflict between the Green Hulk and Bruce Banner personalities. It also says a lot about this interpretation of Jennifer. She had no repressed childhood trauma and therefor has the *privilege* of becoming a Gamma Mutant with full control of her cognitive faculties served to her on a silver platter. A privilege she shares with characters like Doc Samson, Abomination, and to a lesser extent, Rhino. She's on par with a rich college boy shitbag and 2 supervillains.
Remember when the Hulk was an unfathomable source of trauma and fear for Bruce Banner? Remember in the beginning of The Incredible Hulk where he's physically assaulted, and his first response is to check his heartrate monitor to see whether he is about to have the lives of the entire neighbourhood on his conscience? Remember when Bruce Banner committed suicide from the terror, isolation and self loathing that the Hulk embodied, realizing in a moment of utter hopelessness that he is effectively immortal, and eternally held hostage in his own body? Remember when he was being chased for the better part of his entire life by the army who wanted to lock him in a basement somewhere and experiment on him and weaponize him, forcing him to live as a drifter? Nah, me neither.
See I don’t like saying that this show is crap because I’ve always liked She Hulk and I was actually looking forward to this show cause I love the character, but this show is slowly making me hate her, the whole saying she’s suffered more than Bruce is such bullshit look I know women get catcalled and that really fucking sucks and it’s bullshit but comparing that to Bruce’s 10 year nightmare where he couldn’t be with the women he loves, he couldn’t contact his family or friends, he left the planet after what he did in Africa, he even tried to kill himself but Hulk wouldn’t let him that’s what’s he’s been suffering.
To be fair, I don’t think that scene was trying to say Jen suffered more than Bruce, it was her saying that she had better control over her anger before becoming a Hulk than Bruce did, which is why she’s able to transform at will and doesn’t go berserk
@@rjai5003 And the logic behind that is "women are angry 98% of their existence". Seeing that my mother is angry....often and usually for the dumbest of reasons, I'll take their word for it.....That still doesn't change the fact that this is the dumbest dialog Marvel studios has ever spoken.....in a reality where Captain Marvel exists.
Comic version is very different and will always be better than this one. Don't worry about it, alot of our favorite characters get ruined in the past decade.
For Marvel to make something on the same level of ass quality as CW's Batwoman speaks volumes to how low the film industry's gotten with the political crap it's become involved in as of late.
It could have been interesting if they made some things easier for Jenn and then made others much harder, I think that would have been so much more interesting
The Mandalorian also had fancy art with its end credits, but 1. the art during the credits was scenes from the episode itself, not just random stuff sorta related to the episode; 2. that art was fairly detailed and professionally made, this just looks passable; 3. The Mandalorian had 3 or 4 pictures per credits sequence, not a whole dynamic presentation (which, as JLongbone said, is more fitting for the end of a movie than a TV episode); and 4. The Mandalorian was trying to be this epic and interesting tale of a bounty hunter and his journeys in a galaxy far far away, a tone which is more fitting for that kind of effort and presentation than some girlboss *"comedy"* show. I just hate everything about this episode... thanks to JLong for reviewing this nonsense.
Jen saying she don't wanna be a hulk is proof the writers have no clue what She-Hulks character is all about. Jen WANTS to be She-Hulk, that's why she is green like 90 % of the time. She-Hulk is all Jen wants to be, She-Hulk is Jens idealized image of herself.
I've always liked how Jen enjoyed herself as She-Hulk WHILE caring about Bruce. She understood that he got the short end of the stick, and she used her strength, her lawyer skills, and everything she could to help him and stand at his side. Her character used to be a wonderful mixture of badassery and empathy.
I hate the changes. Jen was a Harvard graduate lawyer, who got shot by Nicholas Trask, a crime boss who had killed Jen's mother, for having defended a gangster who had been double-crossed by him. Bruce then decided, despite knowing she could turn like him, to make a blood transfusion to her. like, you already have a pretty good character basis: a stalwart lawyer who gets wounded at her job and gets superpowers. Her enemies weren't male gazes or mansplainers: they were gangsters, and criminals, who she faced powerless. why change it for a "Is CaP A vIrGiN" joke? like I heard that the reason was "Because bruce would never put her cousin through his same problems" but that's exactly the point. Bruce wouldn't do it, but he has to do it to save her. It's called drama: you get good stories out of it.
@@GODCONVOYPRIME I don't know that, maybe. it would have been a nice retcon to make them related as a way to introduce the first anti-mutant sentiments, considering marvel wants to introduce the X-men.
The Mauler clip was so perfect for the Hulk getting beaten by a fucking car! I genuinely had no words to describe the amount problems with that scene. I just flashed back to the scene of the army trying to kill Hulk and him just stepping on the end of a jeep to flip it and throwing it at the soldiers. Man I miss when Hulk was cool.
In fairness, Tony leaving a free supply of booze for a buddy's bar would be one of the more in character things this show manages with legacy Marvel...
That "no friends" comment really sticks out hard and makes her look so bad that even if they try to "redeem" her later, it feels way to far for a cousin to be acting this hostel to a family member. You kinda forget they're cousins with how shitty she treats him most of the time and she has almost little to no empathy.
His two best friends and the woman he loved died, all in a short span of time. The only people he has left are Thor, a washed-up God of Thunder who he hasn't seen in ages, and Clint, who's pretty much just a street-level vigilante now.
I'm so glad someone finally put The First Avenger Steve scene next to Bruce gushing over... the ability to drink a lot? He says "buzz but no getting sick", but that's not how metabolism would work. You would either get both or neither. And it just reminded me how nice The First Avenger scene is shot. Peggy entering behind Steve who's in the foreground, where we can really see his torment. He continues, we switch to just Peggy, who's understanding where he's going with this. Then big wide shot of the wrecked inn/tavern, Steve is shown totally isolated in this disaster area, his line "I can't get drunk" *sounds* like a shallow complaint amidst the destruction, but in context, it really speaks to how much losing Bucky has brought Steve to his knees. We've never seen Steve have to cope this way.
She-Hulk is literally one of the only excuses to hand a female character awesome abilities and have them make sense. They couldn't even get that right. Her transformation was originally more similar to Captain America's with one hell of a confidence boost. Jennifer LOVED being She-Hulk.
Mark Ruffalo says the show's being reviewbombed on IMDB. It'd be really nice if we show him a BIPOC's thoughtful review of She-Hulk 😊

I thought this was an awful scene but looking at all the clips, this is certainly the worst. this show was technically designed to destroy any remaining love for hulk esp mcu and Mark Rufallo seems to be enjoying every bit of it.
He's controlling his anger right now! He'd have to to be related to someone like that
I mean his father killing his mom isn't really established in the mcu

@@captainbeastwinger4940 Eh, it sort of is, sort of isn't. The 2003 Hulk film and the Edward Norton MCU Hulk film are sort of sequels (the planned sequel to the Bana film was reworked into "The Incredible Hulk"), which is why the Norton film begins essentially at the end of the Bana film with him in Brazil and never really goes over his origin story since it was already set up in the previous film.
That bathroom scene is supposed to be "important" but all it does is make women seem vapid and stupid bc instead of calling the police or an ambulance.....they give her a makeover and a pep talk.....

This She-Hulk just fucking whines and makes mountains out of ant hills.

No, the 2003 Hulk still sucks, it just sucks for different reasons than She-Hulk does. 2003 Hulk was Ang Lee punishing the viewers for his daddy issues, while She-Hulk is the product of emotionally stunted, solipsistic women.
100% accurate
*Bruce Banner in the first Avengers movie:* "In case you needed to kill me, but you can't. I know, I tried. I got low. I didn't see an end, so I put a bullet in my mouth and the other guy spit it out."

In the original comics Jennifer was shot by a gangster who was involved in a case and Bruce gives her blood in a transfusion so she wouldn't die.
Can't show Bruce Banner being heroic or anything. 😑

And then she immediately turns? There's hardly any tension, no emotional impact, nothing. They wanted to get right to the point and they took the laziest way.
@@joinsideke I agree. They could have easily made it better by just copying the comics. This just proved to me they didn't read it.

''What the hell is the patriarchy crap, com'on girls, let's show everyone how we do it better.''

This makes me miss the she-hulk from the Hulk cartoons of my early teenage years. Jennifer was a quiet, mousy, meek girl while She-hulk was confident, caring and sensual (but not sexual). And honestly, her portrayal in that show is largely responsible for my preference of tall muscular women.
She Hulk in the comics for the most part respects the character much better. This show was simply vendictive
muscular women are relevant to my interests lol
I remember the episode from this show where She and Dr Strange ventured inside Bruce's subconscious to fight Dormammu(or someone else, don't really remember). Dynamic between them was interesting.
She was sexual, but that’s not a bad thing. There’s an episode where she meets up with the thing and she’s giving hardcore DTF vibes, literally saying “We’re going back to your place”.
They had so much potential for this show something people actually liked unlike captain marvel and ms marvel but they went low energy feminist bull not a comedy and it's not a legal drama
You notice little things that NO ONE ELSE I watch review this stuff notices. The voice over in the crash scene was a good catch, but the getting dresses up scene was a REALLY astute observation. I never even thought of that, but it makes TOTAL sense. Of course they couldn't have her all bruised and dirty and bloodied-up, because then the very next scene where she gets cat-called by the evil mysoginist men wouldn't have made sense. And you KNOW the writers weren't gonna drop that scene, so cleaning her up was their not-so-clever work around. Honestly, you're like the Sherlock Holmes of bad movie/show reaction channels.
According to the head writer she fought to keep the bathroom scene in the script because it was supposed to show that the womens bathroom is a female sanctum and that women in the bathroom will always look out for and protect each other. She thought it was the most important scene in the movie.
@@alzaelnext638 idk what bathrooms she's imagining but not once have i seen any ladies bathroom filled with helpful women. if anything you're more likely to come across bathrooms when women will be trash talking each other or just plain ignoring them because they have their own issues

According to Gao she had an incident once in a bathroom where she needed help with a wardrobe malfunction and a random woman helped her out. Because that's how things work in womens bathrooms.
You took the words from me
@@alzaelnext638 I mean, I could see that. I went into a restroom once and a lady in a stall asked if I had a spare pad or tampon and I gave her one. But like, if I went in and saw a woman covered in dirt and blood, I'd ask what happened and if she wanted me to call 911. Not...give her a make-over? J's right, the only point of that scene was to gussy her up so the men in the next scene could hit on her.
Bruce: Father beat my mother to death, the government hunted me down like a rabid dog to try to kill me, I spent so many years alone an unable to have any form of a romantic relationship, I tried committing suicide multiple times but hulk stop it, my best friend tony Died right in front of me, my only girlfriend after years died, I burned half my body using the infinity stone to bring back half of the universe
Jen: yeah that sucks but have you ever been cat called? It’s the worse thing in the world!
Disney really out here treating Hulks trauma likes it absolutely fucking nothing
I'm tired of being told I should feel like a victim for being female. But then I remember this is a smaller group of very loud, obnoxious people with access to means to yell across the planet. The rest of us roll our eyes and laugh about it.
All this show is doing is making women look like entitled, condescending narcissist who can’t handle words being thrown at them.
Not really empowering, it’s actually sexist when you think about it.
@@LegacyComics100 exactly! The mcu writers are so terrible at writing female characters, it's jarring. She-Hulk in the comics was a lot better
I love that instead of calling the police or paramedics these ladies decide to put makeup on her. This was the scene the writers were fighting for because it was so important 🤦♂️ this is truly the MCU version of Batwoman 👎
Plus, she's dirty! Why the hell are they brushing makeup over dirt and scrapes!
Yes, this! I was like “what the hell are you doing! Call the police!”
This is how Disney apparently thinks women would act in a moment of crisis, how is this show feminist again??
@@RanMouri82 seriously tho, when i saw that scene i just though, "Wow they're really doing that now?"
Plus I think one's a dude.
I'm going to play my "as a woman' card, and assert that this never happens in restrooms. You do your business in the most kosher looking stall, wash your hands and leave while having the most minimal eye contact you can with anyone else in there.
The very fact that she didn't have to experience the full alter-ego of Hulk vs. human the way Bruce did is proof enough that her invalidation of his experiences in comparison to, "Being a woman," is complete garbage. Yeah, there are plenty of women out there who go through a lot of horrible stuff, but that doesn't mean men don't and it doesn't make invalidating, belittling, and diminishing anyone's struggles and strife justifiable. In the words of Stan Lee, " 'Nuff said."
Right? He only has the repressed alter ego because of childhood trauma and abuse, but yeah, she's way better at coping with her problems...
IIRC, Jen didn't get an alter-ego because she got a watered-down version of mutation, the one which only enhanced her physical abilities and looks but didn't affect her mind. So yeah, she got luckier than Bruce and always knew it, so she felt sympathetic towards her cousin who had to suffer with Hulk. It had nothing to do with her being a woman or being better than Bruce.
Sing it. I find it wild how feminists throw around the words "valid(ate)" or "invalid(ate)" like beads at Mardi Gras, among other popular pop-psychology terms, when it comes to themselves, a proxy they can project onto (such as another woman), or in best cases, a woman who has actually gone through some strife. But the second a man joins that conversation, all self-awareness goes out the window and suddenly it's as if they've never heard of those words before. The hypocrisy floors me, it really does...

How to tell that sexual revolution was a mistake without telling it.
So glad to live in a such "free" world where man being a virgin is still a normal thing to insult.
I like how an alien vessel pops up out of nowhere just long enough to cause a car crash and then is never seen or mentioned again. Wonder how much they spent making the CGI for that when stock footage of a deer in the road could have accomplished the same thing
I think that is the Grandmaster's ship from Thor Ragnarok with a different paintjob.
*Comics Jen:* A cool, intelligent, successful, defense lawyer who's highly supportive of her fugitive cousin, while her alter ego is a loveable, party girl and one of the funnest superheroes to have on the Avengers roster. Easily one of my top 5 classic Marvel heroes.
*This Jen:* Who the hell even is this smug hangnail of a human being?
I don’t know if this will be possible or true, but they somehow made Jen worse than Captain Marvel in Civil War 2(the storyline that forever tainted her character).
Civil War 2 Cap Marvel is a pretty classic antagonist-who-would-make-a-tragic-hero type to me. A villain because of her actions with ostensibly noble motivation.
At least that's what I would say if she were written better, but the authors seemed to not want to commit to the bit.
But MCU She-Hulk doesn't even have that. Only selfish motives underpinning vile actions. With more well targeted cruel language to boot.
@@LegacyComics100 Her character pretty much embodies "toxic femininity," and that's because the writers embody that as well.
Why does "hangnail" explain her personality SO PERFECTLY? 🤣 Wow, you hit the *nail* on the head lol 👍
@@cmc5394oparva Well, self-inserts are a popular thing in writing - be it amateur or professional, apparently. 😂
@@nerdstorma8427 Thank you. 😁
She doesn't just call him smug for calling himself "Smart Hulk" right after claiming to be better than him.
She's claiming to be better than one of the smartest people on the entire planet who has helped save Earth from *multiple* extinction level events, and managed to develop enough self control and introspection to find the balance with the uncontrollable rage monster that lives inside him. And then she says he's smug because he basically said that he (again, one of the smartest people on the planet), is smarter than the mindless rage monster.
Not to mention, this is the same guy who helped invent *TIME TRAVEL!!*
It's also odd because...Bruce has never been smug? As far as I remember, he has always been very humble and isolated, even due to his habit of pushing people away, so they would be safe from Hulk. He did a lot of good things because he is a good person, and he never bragged about it. Hell, he originally became Hulk because he ran out in a dangerous zone to save a random guy from an explosion - he didn't care that he, as a scientist, was more important than some rando. So, Bruce is anything BUT smug. If you want smug, you go to Tony Stark, but not Bruce.
@@pokerface4396 And even with Tony Stark, he saved the universe. What has Jen done?
It's weird to me that if she's supposed to be so clever and a genius like him, that she didn't linguistically pick up that him calling himself "smart hulk" had nothing to do with her, and everything to do with the comparison to "uncontrollable monster hulk" that he once was.
Oh wait no it isn't weird at all I just forgot that the writers are making her incredibly narcissistic
Marvel really is racist and sexist because all they care about is gender and race.....Plus, just because they use a "POC", therefore, the rest of us who are also "POC", must support it....apparently, i can't relate to Peter Parker because, he's white....even though, his story is about taking accountability and adulting despite the odds...I miss Marvel when it wasn't about gender or race..when it was about the character....the only good thing about she hulk is that Jlongbone will now have more videos to entertain us.
she hulk sounds like it was written by a person with daddy issues.
I'm a brown Indian guy and I hate wokeism with a PASSION.
Sadly, I suspect this was written by a whole team with unresolved daddy issues.
This is from the same writer who made the infamous Pickle Rick episode of Rick & Morty. Make of that what you will.
@@michaelstrong5383 That makes too much sense...
Ironically enough, Bruce is supposed to have 'daddy issues' in the form of having been abused as a child. Meanwhile, She-Hulk wasn't in the comics
It’s sad to remember that this will be people’s first impression of She-Hulk when in the comics, she was a good female character who actually gave a damn about Bruce and what he went through.
That's the sad thing, since she knew Bruce just wanted to be left alone.
If you compare this to the pilot of the 70's Hulk series, you can see that it's like an entirely different world.
They were actually taking it seriously and trying to make a good show.

This new She-Hulk series (not the comics) is like having a puppy you love take a dump on all your possessions including smearing it on all your old photos of them. Like... Marvel, you need a time out. You need to sit in a corner for a while and think about what you've done while I try to forget your transgressions.
I’ve had the same thought about a lot of comic adaptations lately. To the point that I don’t want to admit I like certain characters to people unfamiliar with the comics because they’ll only think of the shitty versions.
She's truly awful. A character born in spite and resentment.
This is the Hollywood version of a wife banging the neighbor and rubbing your face in it. Girl Power!
What happened to actual strong and well written women characters like Rippley or Sarah Connor with actual flaws and personalities, and problems to overcome, either Hollywood is too lazy and doesn’t care to write them, or they actually think that this spoiled, tantrum throwing toddler with a lazy plot armor and aura that dumbs down every man around her, is what a strong woman looks like
Or She Hulk in the comics
Kim Wexler in Better Call Saul was one of the most badass women to come out of Hollywood in a long while. People should check it out, you'll be rooting for her all the time.
Stupid people are bad at writing. *shrug*
They are all fundamentally weak and damaged people so they can't write any other character to praise.
@Arturs, "What happened to actual strong and well written women characters?"
Watch Arcane.
The ladies bathroom scene is so weird to me. If I saw another woman in the bathroom who looked like Jennifer did, I wouldn't be concerned with primping her up, applying makeup and shit, I'd be asking her if she needs an ambulance or the police or something. It seems like, as you point out, a way to make Jennifer look more dolled up so the dudes could hit on her outside the bar.
Woman comes out of the woods bloodied up and no one calls emergency services? Nobody offers their cellphone, just make-up and hooker clothes?
I gave the show far too much credit. I assumed that the bathroom scene was going to have Jen hulk out on the toilet and feel incredibly embarrassed, but the women in the bathroom help her out. But no no no, what we got was much more worse and hilariously dumb.
If they did that she'd have a hulk period.
They're probably gonna do that anyway
That scene could work, Thus I am, since you brought it up. I could see she sees the transformation of her face in the reflection of the toilet water and has a existential breakdown of her identity.
Why the fuck were they so concerned about giving her a make-over than to call 911 and take her to an ambulance?? That's the normal thing people would do if they saw a woman or a man out on the streets bleeding and covered in dirt. So misogynistic.
@@graylykan2739 Because male cops might show up! I'm honestly willing to believe that be their excuse.
"You got raped? Let me dress you up like a whore"

I like the scene where she's belittling his intelligence, when there's a movie about him and a friend creating a true AI, on a whim, over the weekend, and it being so smart it became an existential threat to humanity within hours.
Really glad to see someone finally reference the cap drinking scene. That was used as a low point in his movie that really gripped my heart at the time. But now it’s a really bad throw away joke that begins to make us question canon. Not great.

@@randomduck8679 Then what they need to do is find the tallest buffest yet aesthetically pleasing woman they can and either cgi her face into a smaller actress’s body or vice versa. I mean they did it for Chris Evans in his first Captain America movie
@@SteveSmith-ty8ko That's actually what they did -- or, a shittier version of it anyway. The CGI model for She-Hulk is based on a real-life, VERY tall and muscular woman who is credited as part of the production team (I do not recall her name at the moment). But they don't do the CGI face thing or just film the woman and change her skin, she's just a 3D model of that woman. They couldn't even do the Darth Vader thing where they get someone to play her and use her voice, or the LOTR thing where they use camera tricks and practical effects that are already established in filmmaking to make characters look bigger or smaller than they actually are. They just animated a 3D character. It's weird. Like, really weird.

"Why doesn't she clarify that she was in a car crash?"
Because she probably likes the attention of being a victim.
A victim of evil men, specifically. Being injured by a car crash just doesn't do it for her.
It's insane how utterly incompetent these writers are.
By taking away the aspect of her being a brute when she hulks out, it takes away literally any spice the character has. She literally just turns green and strong, but where is any sort of conflict, what is her weakness as a super hero? It's insanely bland and boring to take that away... and it is only done as some BOSS GURL bullshit.
Bit of a post scriptum:
At around the 17 minute mark, when Shit-Hulk starts to ramble on about how she can controll her anger, cause she's used to "inferior men explaining her field of expertise to her"? Yeah, that inferior man would be Bruce in that moment, as revealed by her outburst literally a minute later. Fuck this show, fuck everyone involved in making it.
I hate capeshit and I only watched like 4 Marvel movies, so it's not like I'm a huge Avengers nerd or Hulk fanboy, but I enjoy decent character writing and good plots and this show, in a few scenes, is like someone pushing toothpicks soaked in chili under my fingernails.
Not exactly, She-Hulk never had the aspect of being a brute in the comics beyond the first little bit of her existence that nobody even remembers; so she never had that kind of spice. In her case the personality change was that she went from being a shy and mousy nerdy girl to a fun-loving, outgoing extrovert. She contrasted with Bruce in that she loved and revelled in being a Hulk and never wanted to turn back, even though she was still profoundly sympathetic and saddened by his own struggles. The problem with this Jen is that she doesn't change at all. She's the same bland, boring, ball-busting bitch she was with her powers as she was without them. She's not fun and whacky, she's whiny and self-absorbed.
classic/original she hulk isnt a berserker. her hulking out changes her personality, by which i mean behavior, not identity. unlike with bruce and hulk where they're two different minds, she hulk is just jen. however, when she hulks out she stops being timid, shy, mousey, and becomes confident, gains flair and swagger, as well as looking and feeling more beautiful.
part of her whole schtick is that she's the only hulk whose life is actually greatly improved by being a hulk, rather than impaired.
Everyone who turns because of the Gamma radiation ends up different. Abomination doesn't have an alter-ego and can't turn back, Doctor Sansom doesn't even transforms. It created different dinamics with the characters. This show doesn't even understand that.
There's only about 4 actually good MCU films, so you probably didn't miss anything. Most of them are dangerously average to mediocre CGI fests.
@@berserkasaurusrex4233 4 is quite generous.
I cannot believe the writers and director looked at the scene where Hulk goes flying into a cliffside after being pushed by a freaking Jeep and thought "Yup, Hulk maybe strong but that's totally what would happen."
Oh my god these are the same people that get up in arms about women’s virginity and how anyone who mentions it is a creep
Banner should have been upset when he found out the she-hulk is in control all the time. Cause that means that she was fully aware about killing those guys at the bar, her kicks can launch boulders imagine what it could do to a human.
Watching this vs Extraordinary Attorney Woo is so jarring. Attorney Woo’s central theme and every episode is about the protagonist autism but they actually make her a character, show her struggles and show she’s only good because she studies and actually works for it, meanwhile the first episode of She-Hulk literally starts with characters praising the main character like she’s four years and just washed her hands by herself
Also another good attorney show: Better Call Saul! Along with the Daredevil show
for fucks sake, Phoenix Wright is a better lawyer and he had to have bullet ballistics explained to him on his fourth case!
Cousin has one arm, has the potential to be a dangerous mess, was left for dead in a car crash, "I need him to come get me!" The fuck? It's like the line was only put in to quickly sweep away the fact that she's being treated like a victim when Marky Mark Defender of Pedos was far worse off than her.
Also, great comparison between herself and Hulk. Hulk gets forced into a transformation in times of great stress, like when the military is hunting him down with guns and his girlfriend is being tackled. She-male Hulk? Some guys cat-call her for looking like a slut. Disney, proving that women are unstable messes that can't actually control their emotions.
Oh god what did Mark Ruffalo do now (if that's who you meant)
@@ravenID429 Did you mean the "Defender of Pedos" part? If so, back when Kyle Rittenhouse was declared not guilty in court, Mark, in Twitter, paid tribute to one of Kyle's attackers, Joseph Rosenbaum, who was a registered sex offender and serial pedophile.
@@lmahu6627 Yep sounds about right
I wouldn't be surprised at this point if he knew that and just didn't care
Bruce Banner saw his father kill his mother in front of him, when his mother was trying to protect Bruce from his father, when his father was trying to kill him. Then he was in an explosion from a gamma bomb, had his girlfriend's dad try to destroy him for 10 years. His second girlfriend end her own life, to get the soul stone and he also was basically stuck in a coma while the Hulk lived in his body for 10 years. So how is getting mansplained and cat called worse than what Bruce went through? This series is hackneyed dog sh*t! Because Jennifer Walters got her gamma irradiation from a blood transfusion, from Bruce, She-Hulk's "power" was a fraction of that of the Hulk. She is faster and more nimbler than the Hulk, but nowhere near as strong. If the Hulk get's angry enough he can destroy the planet with just a step (World War Hulk)
So do the writers want it’s viewers to dislike Jen? She’s a self centered, entitled, heartless, little brat, who physically and verbally lashes out at those who offend her or are even trying to help her. There’s nothing here to like
A car crash right after a captain America virgin joke is the perfect metaphor for Marvel at large.
And that in itself is the best joke marvel ever made.
I actually like the idea of Steve having never had that experience. Plays into that virtuous paladin vibe. It’s another layer of sacrifice ie he gave up having a personal life and a big human experience because he was saving the world. Plus, it makes the relationship with Peggy more special because they both waited for each other.
But virtue and abstinence is old fashioned and icky. Ironically, the people who used to complain so much about being "shamed" now shame anyone who doesn't stoop to their depravity.
The problem is that hes not a virgin so the joke doesnt work to begin with.
It's also a counterpoint in his character to that of Tony Stark, who is openly shown sleeping with every female he can. One is a paragon of virtue and optimism, the other is an alcoholic spiraling into severe depression and self-loathing.
@@Etherman7 lmao chill out incel 😂
I still hate how they barely ever mention the effects of the snap, the world looks like it didn't change. A geat concept to explore in the show would be the legal ramifications of the snap and after the blip like people losing their homes and finances to other people because they were gone for 5 years. Like how were the not snapped people the opressed ones in the falcon. If anyone should've been in the refugee camps it'd be the people that got snapped back
It's because they're ignoring it like they ignore their own canon just to make a point.
The entire world be would destabilized, and then destabilized again just five years later. I was surprised they made the time skip that long for this very reason. It would be years before anything returned to normal.
It's easier to hand wave it, they kinda bring it up in Falcon and the Winter Soldier x but only to be like "Falcon wasn't even paid for being a Avenger" which...is like being in a elite unit of the military and not seeing a penny for your service. Dude saved the world, knew Captain America, but dude couldn't get a check? Or like a retirement plan?
There was an interview of sorts where some writer said that people of MCU have moved on from the snap.
@@ngultrum1 bruh... some people are still hanging on to the holocaust and yet they just went "eh that was a year ago" to HALF OF THE PLANET POODING AWAY?!
20:27 I can’t stop laughing at the realization that Tony left Bruce an alcohol fund but Sam is left destitute after Infinity War 😂😂😂
“Oh no I can’t not get drunk anymore” 😂 the content surrounding this misogynist mess is way better than the show itself.
Is Sam referring to Sam Wilson? Because Tony wasn't close to him like Bruce and Sam was snapped from existence.
My baaar!
I love how the MCU is now being woke af when it comes to their women characters yet it took how many years for black widow to have her own solo film after she was in iron man 2?
I swear to god I half expected her to snap back to the bleeding thing “SO AM I BRUCE, EVERY MONTH”
Honestly a bunch of strangers crowding me, messing with my clothes, and trying to put makeup on me would make me personally hulk out.
Oh and that "literal get murdered" line would probably have more weight had they stuck with She-Hulk's original origins where she nearly ASSASSINATED for being the lawyer of a guy framed by a gang.
Yeah but that would be for being a lawyer not a woman.
Funny how the comic book origin makes more sense than the MCU origin. Jen getting her abilities from a blood transfusion makes more sense than Bruce's blood getting into her cut. The MCU version makes it seem like her transformation would be more messy and rough.
@@randomduck8679 If anything her hulk form should be weaker than in the comic version because she didn't get as much radiation this time.

Did you read the article where the lead writer admitted they had no idea how to write the show? And she played it off like that was a quirky little anecdote and not a damning admission.
2:57 Lets be honest that amount people pining over Chris Evans in real life would probably be quadrupled in universe for Captain America.
Even if he never got any action that would of been his choice not exactly for lack of opportunity.
If anything its a testiment to Cap's character that he didn't abuse his position like that.
03:10 I remember in the incredible Hulk when Bruce tried to kill himself by shooting himself in the head and the second the bullet connected with him the Hulk was already spitting the bullet out.
Also in the incredible Hulk Bruce's blood ends up in a soda bottle and his blood is that toxic it killed Stan Lee in that movie
But she posses a special DNA that is way better than Bruce himself is the explanation for that 🙄 . What crap writing .
The worst part about that whole "great at controlling her anger" scene is that just a few minutes earlier she was about to kill a couple of guys for the crime of talking to her in a way she didn't like before Hulk stopped her. How is that controlling your anger?!
“I can control my anger infinitely better than you because I deal with cat-calling!”
>loses control and Hulks out when we see her being cat-called.
Remember: people are defending this bullshit
That's even more hilarious

To be fair, Tony Stark didn't really have a close relationship with Sam Wilson. Sam was also against the Sekovian Accords and on the opposite side of the Civil War. Sam was more Captain America's buddy, so Tony wouldn't leave two farts to Sam in his will. Bruce and Tony understood each other and were intellectual equals, so it would make sense Tony would leave Bruce a ton of his tech and other science equipment.
Still he is an Avengers sponsor. Although...Tony died an hour Sam was resurrected, so obvioulsly he didn't prepare for that situation...
Just like Tony said to Bruce in Avengers Age of Ultron " We're mad scientists [...] we're monsters buddy "
I feel like a way they could've made the virgin joke work was by Jen having a bet with her friend that after taking the super soldier serum steve would've been banging every girl he met, and Jen can't believe the idea that a guy as handsome and as buff as Steve wouldn't be doing that no matter how conservative people may have been at that time. Later it would've been a shocker to her that he really was a virgin until he reunited with peggy.
I will not be able to look at Bruce's calm/mildly amused expression as Jen rambles on about how the mediocre BS she deals with as a woman makes her infinitely better at controlling her rage (all the while being emotional while stating as such) and not think that he's mentally repeating a calming mantra to prevent himself from lunging at his cousin and knocking her teeth out for dismissing all the sh*t he had to endure long before even becoming the Hulk.
Phase 4? More like Stage 4, amirite?
It's probably already been pointed out a million times by now in the comments, but I'll add to the pile:
Can I point out how much the conversation at around 2:00 in pissed me off? The fact that Steve Rodgers, a man we saw wracked with guilt over several movies about not keeping his promise to Peggy, saw her so old to the point where she didn't remember him, attended HER FUNERAL, and sacrificed himself at the finale of Endgame so he could just get the one thing he ever wanted... to grow old together with the only woman he ever loved... and it's all flushed down the goddamn proverbial toilet so Bootleg Rule 63 Jolly Green Giant here can make a "LOL CAPTAIN AMERICA VIRGIN" joke.
...and Bruce, a guy who fought alongside the man numerous times... has to just endure it because of the writers.
(if I forgot anything or missed any details, sorry but I'm literally feeling my blood pressure rising while typing this if a writer had cracked a joke like this about Natasha/Black Widow we never would've heard the end of it)
JLongbone doing the damn thing. Dropping facts and reflections on this crazy mess. Well done.
When you want to write strong women, have them actually be someone likable, not someone who belittles the opposite sex just so the writer can feel accomplished. Strong women have been written before, and having her say platitudes that writers think are politically correct but just comes off as annoying.
I laughed so much at the thought of Tony Stark leaving stuff to certain Avengers and nothing to others 😭😂😂
2:09
This bugged me more than anything. Steve wasn't "rushed to the frontlines". He was denied just about everytime he tried to go into the service. Even after getting the super soldier serum, they just used him to boost the moral of soldiers. They had no intention of putting him on the frontlines, so he had to do it himself
At most companies, especially somewhere like a law firm, competitiveness is crucial to getting to a higher level in your job. It's an abuse of the system to accuse a man any time he might best you or question you that he is being toxic or sexist. If you want to be equal, grow the fuck up and use competition as a motivator to improve and better yourself.
There's a great interview that Amy Hennig, one of the most influential woman in the gaming industry did where she explained exactly that and stated that she was welcomed and respected and did not feel that anyone who was cut throat was anything more than another ambitious person like herself. She got success by working hard, unlike idiots like Anita who gained success by whining and complaining about bs. The narrative this show and others are pushing is reductive and infuriating.
Not PC to say so, but you want to compete with men in a male dominated field, you must behave like one.
I miss when She hulk was a danger defying prosecutor who wasnt afraid of the mob to the point where them assassinating her was a real threat she didnt give a fuck about.
Ya know...when she was cool
This "feminist" myth that women will get targeted unfairly if they lose their temper actually ignores the real problem of women not learning to control their temper. 70% of one- sided domestic violence incidents are initiated by women, most of whom were likely taught that anger is a male problem.
This isn't a men vs. women thing, it's an inherent human emotion thing. But let the feminist writers go off I guess.
"the real problem of women not learning to control their temper" yikes lol
@@dhocvpv did ya get the next part?
Incorrect. 50% of domestic violence incidents are started by women. The other %50 by men. Women are much more likely to be killed by male partners. Plus you're ignoring the 100% of mass shootings, gang shootings, rapes and beatings perpetrated by men as well. Women are not taught "anger is a male problem", but that men typically do more damage as a result of anger, which is correct. I see what you're saying, but let's not spread bullshit.
@@whyarealltaken They'll do anything they can to miss the point. Rather than agree that anger issues are bad no matter who has them and that we're ALL susceptible, its just "ew you criticized wahmen yikes"
This group can't take criticism because they have no accountability
honestly one thing im shocked you didnt talk about was the fact that Bruce didnt call out the fact that when Jen was about to kill those guys, she was still conscious. She was intentionally going to kill them!
Writers " We can't show a voooman being a bad driver for the wreck"
"Ooh I've got it! Flying saucer!"
I love how those four women who out of nowhere give Jen that on- the- spot makeover see that she's clearly banged up, yet never once bother to, you know, CALL AN AMBULANCE!
She says she can control her anger when being cat-called… Even though we literally just saw her Hulkout immediately after being cat-called outside a bar.
Is a little consistency too much to ask for?
One of my favorite moments from that Incredible Hulk cartoon by BKN from the mid-90s was when Hulk was bathing in a river and was calm enough to start reverting back into Bruce. He could see the change happening in his reflection and realized right away that he and Puny Banner share the same body, which sends him into an Ude Hussain-like rage. It's such a simple thing, but it spoke volumes about the conflict between the Green Hulk and Bruce Banner personalities.
It also says a lot about this interpretation of Jennifer. She had no repressed childhood trauma and therefor has the *privilege* of becoming a Gamma Mutant with full control of her cognitive faculties served to her on a silver platter. A privilege she shares with characters like Doc Samson, Abomination, and to a lesser extent, Rhino. She's on par with a rich college boy shitbag and 2 supervillains.
It really felt as if Mark didn’t want to do this, his acting was so bad.
Remember when the Hulk was an unfathomable source of trauma and fear for Bruce Banner? Remember in the beginning of The Incredible Hulk where he's physically assaulted, and his first response is to check his heartrate monitor to see whether he is about to have the lives of the entire neighbourhood on his conscience? Remember when Bruce Banner committed suicide from the terror, isolation and self loathing that the Hulk embodied, realizing in a moment of utter hopelessness that he is effectively immortal, and eternally held hostage in his own body? Remember when he was being chased for the better part of his entire life by the army who wanted to lock him in a basement somewhere and experiment on him and weaponize him, forcing him to live as a drifter?
Nah, me neither.
See I don’t like saying that this show is crap because I’ve always liked She Hulk and I was actually looking forward to this show cause I love the character, but this show is slowly making me hate her, the whole saying she’s suffered more than Bruce is such bullshit look I know women get catcalled and that really fucking sucks and it’s bullshit but comparing that to Bruce’s 10 year nightmare where he couldn’t be with the women he loves, he couldn’t contact his family or friends, he left the planet after what he did in Africa, he even tried to kill himself but Hulk wouldn’t let him that’s what’s he’s been suffering.
They even stole away her origins.
You're mistaken. This is not She-Hulk, or at least not the one you know.
To be fair, I don’t think that scene was trying to say Jen suffered more than Bruce, it was her saying that she had better control over her anger before becoming a Hulk than Bruce did, which is why she’s able to transform at will and doesn’t go berserk
@@rjai5003 And the logic behind that is "women are angry 98% of their existence". Seeing that my mother is angry....often and usually for the dumbest of reasons, I'll take their word for it.....That still doesn't change the fact that this is the dumbest dialog Marvel studios has ever spoken.....in a reality where Captain Marvel exists.
Comic version is very different and will always be better than this one. Don't worry about it, alot of our favorite characters get ruined in the past decade.
1:17 If a woman started speaking to like this, I’d assume she hated me. A female friend would not lay it on so T H I C K.
For Marvel to make something on the same level of ass quality as CW's Batwoman speaks volumes to how low the film industry's gotten with the political crap it's become involved in as of late.
Steve Rogers waited until he was married to do it. That's my theory now that this clip has forced me to think about it.

I liked the idea of the credits being court room sketches.
Anyway, that's the only good thing I have to say about the show.
It could have been interesting if they made some things easier for Jenn and then made others much harder, I think that would have been so much more interesting
But they can't let a female character show any weakness or vulnerability, so they turn her into a cardboard cutout instead.
You are correct. This show could have been interesting if it was written by smart people.
The fake shark they had roar in Jaws 4 sounded more impressive than mcu She Hulk's roar.
It's almost like the show's writers are projecting their ex-boyfriends and ex-husbands on to Bruce.......

The Mandalorian also had fancy art with its end credits, but 1. the art during the credits was scenes from the episode itself, not just random stuff sorta related to the episode; 2. that art was fairly detailed and professionally made, this just looks passable; 3. The Mandalorian had 3 or 4 pictures per credits sequence, not a whole dynamic presentation (which, as JLongbone said, is more fitting for the end of a movie than a TV episode); and 4. The Mandalorian was trying to be this epic and interesting tale of a bounty hunter and his journeys in a galaxy far far away, a tone which is more fitting for that kind of effort and presentation than some girlboss *"comedy"* show.
I just hate everything about this episode... thanks to JLong for reviewing this nonsense.
Jen saying she don't wanna be a hulk is proof the writers have no clue what She-Hulks character is all about. Jen WANTS to be She-Hulk, that's why she is green like 90 % of the time. She-Hulk is all Jen wants to be, She-Hulk is Jens idealized image of herself.
I've always liked how Jen enjoyed herself as She-Hulk WHILE caring about Bruce. She understood that he got the short end of the stick, and she used her strength, her lawyer skills, and everything she could to help him and stand at his side. Her character used to be a wonderful mixture of badassery and empathy.
Damn, they're really doing She-Hulk dirty...ughh...
They’re doing EVERYONE dirty…!
I hate the changes. Jen was a Harvard graduate lawyer, who got shot by Nicholas Trask, a crime boss who had killed Jen's mother, for having defended a gangster who had been double-crossed by him. Bruce then decided, despite knowing she could turn like him, to make a blood transfusion to her. like, you already have a pretty good character basis: a stalwart lawyer who gets wounded at her job and gets superpowers. Her enemies weren't male gazes or mansplainers: they were gangsters, and criminals, who she faced powerless. why change it for a "Is CaP A vIrGiN" joke? like I heard that the reason was "Because bruce would never put her cousin through his same problems" but that's exactly the point. Bruce wouldn't do it, but he has to do it to save her. It's called drama: you get good stories out of it.
Any relation to Bolivar?
@@GODCONVOYPRIME I don't know that, maybe. it would have been a nice retcon to make them related as a way to introduce the first anti-mutant sentiments, considering marvel wants to introduce the X-men.
"I Am Not She-Hulk" by Mariko Tamaki, coming soon!
Mariko Tamaki did write She-Hulk for a while, unfortunately.
The Mauler clip was so perfect for the Hulk getting beaten by a fucking car! I genuinely had no words to describe the amount problems with that scene. I just flashed back to the scene of the army trying to kill Hulk and him just stepping on the end of a jeep to flip it and throwing it at the soldiers. Man I miss when Hulk was cool.
In fairness, Tony leaving a free supply of booze for a buddy's bar would be one of the more in character things this show manages with legacy Marvel...
That "no friends" comment really sticks out hard and makes her look so bad that even if they try to "redeem" her later, it feels way to far for a cousin to be acting this hostel to a family member. You kinda forget they're cousins with how shitty she treats him most of the time and she has almost little to no empathy.
His two best friends and the woman he loved died, all in a short span of time. The only people he has left are Thor, a washed-up God of Thunder who he hasn't seen in ages, and Clint, who's pretty much just a street-level vigilante now.
hahahaha they added his lines after. imagine how awful the original cut was if the final product is this bad
The mauler bit caught me off guard, it was so good
Nice point about the male action hero not being all James Bond etc as subversive. It makes him special, not a loser like She Hulk is trying to imply.
Jen Walters : "I'm a lawyer."
Judge Dredd : "I AM THE LAW!!!"
I'm so glad someone finally put The First Avenger Steve scene next to Bruce gushing over... the ability to drink a lot? He says "buzz but no getting sick", but that's not how metabolism would work. You would either get both or neither.
And it just reminded me how nice The First Avenger scene is shot. Peggy entering behind Steve who's in the foreground, where we can really see his torment. He continues, we switch to just Peggy, who's understanding where he's going with this. Then big wide shot of the wrecked inn/tavern, Steve is shown totally isolated in this disaster area, his line "I can't get drunk" *sounds* like a shallow complaint amidst the destruction, but in context, it really speaks to how much losing Bucky has brought Steve to his knees. We've never seen Steve have to cope this way.
Okay and the MauLer tribute, with the selected visuals, was pretty spectacular.
Remember when Jen was nice and actually cared about her cousin?
She-Hulk is literally one of the only excuses to hand a female character awesome abilities and have them make sense. They couldn't even get that right.
Her transformation was originally more similar to Captain America's with one hell of a confidence boost. Jennifer LOVED being She-Hulk.
