    Disney has been going all-out with Marvel TV shows on Disney+ over the past few years - with seemingly dwindling interest from audience. Their latest show “Echo” is a spinoff of one of those shows, centred around a character who was kind of in it!
    Echo definitely raises some questions. Like how did Kingpin survive that? Why are we rooting for a character that puts her family and innocent people’s lives in danger? What are her powers exactly? Did she just speedrun Kingpin’s therapy?
    To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Echo!

    I really love what Disney is doing to support artist like Ryan. I can't even guess how many millions of dollars and man hours went into making this entire series just so Ryan could create a 4 minute video. Really generous of them.

    I can't believe there was no mention of the fact that echo's original powers are that she can mirror anyone's fighting style, but the genius writers thought that was "lame" so they decided to give her "indigenous ancestor glowy-hand" powers instead.

      @@TakeshiYoung Generic glowy powers with origins about Native American stereotypes is far worse than being a Taskmaster clone. Especially when the Taskmaster from Black Widow got her copying skills from a computer in her helmet and not from a natural talent. And if anyone's confused about the pronouns I used for Taskmaster, spoiler alert: Taskmaster is not Tony Masters but Dreykov's daughter. And you wouldn't get that from promotional materials because the Captain America stuntman Andy Lister wore the suit for most of the movie to preserve the twist about Taskmaster being a woman. They wanted us to think a character who came from a place that came from a place that trained female assassins was a man so that we would make misogynistic outbursts at a movie when we were already watching it for the badass ladies. Not a good twist to preserve in a Black Widow movie.

Criticism tells you the error, and how to fix it. Pitch meeting does that only in scenarios where the problem is braindead in the first place, like the WW84 bodyswap.

    I think the worst thing about how stupid Kingpin's defeat is here is like...he'd ALREADY faced and come to terms with his haunted past, in Netflix' Daredevil. He'd faced and accepted killing his father to protect his mother. He didn't regret it, and he'd accepted it had made him into the man he was. He wasn't afraid of it. So it just came off like such a lazy regressive copout Echo 'broke' him all of a sudden by dredging up a past he'd already buried.

      The thing is it's a pain that he still holds on to. The 'acceptance' he has is still a cover he uses to not have to truly confront it (especially given his anger issues still persisting). So Echo was able to remove that cover and force him to truly face his trauma; not hold on to the empowerment he got from killing him but to truly come to grips with the helplessness, fear and pain he had to endure.

    Far From Home was the cherry on top of the Marvel sundae 10 years in the making. I haven't watched a single piece of MCU content since then, and can't imagine ever even wanting to.

    Surprised there was no mention of Kingpin’s translator device that turn his spoken words into ASL gestures instead of just written words

    When watching these, I honestly think that the two characters are different people.
    BTW - I gave up watching Echo after half an episode, so this pitch meeting was perfect for me to find out what happened, without having to actually spend the time watching the whole series. Thanks Ryan!! 🙂
