Feige said "number of female superheroes will outnumber the male superheroes".... Actually there will come a point that "the number of female superheroes will outnumber the viewers".
Something no one mentions about this show that was so absurd - No police anywhere in NYC. A gun shootout featuring dozens of known criminals firing guns for 10 minutes in Rockefeller Center, and not a single cop shows up until the whole battle is over. There are cops all over Rockefeller Center on any given day, let alone Christmas season. And they are never more than a few blocks away in midtown Manhattan. Were they all on Xmas vacay?
@@catsofsherman1316 Lol Maybe Freddie’s mom bought it in the bargain bin. As a huge Queen, I dislike Hot Space quite a bit. Its saving grace was Under Pressure and Calling All Girls. But Mercury (and John Deacon) were very proud of the album, thinking it was ahead of its time. As for Brian and especially Roger, their distain for it has been stated numerous times. And shockingly, it was fairly well-received by most critics.
It most certainly didn’t flop, it did the same numbers as every other D+ show that isn’t Loki. Loki being a massive success. Either way, it’s clear you haven’t watched the show.
As a big fan of the original Hawkeye, you can imagine my excitement, when I heard about the Hawkeye series. And you can imagine my disappointment, when the first trailer cane out, and I knew immediately, that it was gonna be all about kate, yelena, and maya. The whole thing was a big middle finger to all the male characters. And are they really trying to tell us that a kid managed to beat Kingping himself on the first try? Yeah, no. My man Clint deserved better. :(
@@ShadowSonic2 Speaking for myself, "scared" - fuck no. I am, however, repulsed by combative, masculine, disagreeable women anywhere in the world, real or reel. Perhaps you're drawn to them, aren't you fella?
Hawkeye (Clint Barton) show should have started from earlier times with Black Widow and maybe Budapest and SHIELD missions they were part of before Avengers. That would have been wayyyy better.
Way better. Literally anything would have been better. But no. They can't do it. They just can't make a good D+ show that the actual fans would love. Fucks sake lol
@@borgchap1191 channels like these are the reason many people don't waste their money on crappy films, and get inspired to write their own stories. You may think not, but they are really good for the entertainment industry.
I honestly wanted to see what how Clint dealt with being Ronin for 5 years and the loss of Black widow. How would he start relating with the outside world now that his anchor(his family is back) how does that 5 years affect him, how does it affect his relationship with his family
The season is only halfway through and those things habe already been alluded to. I'd be pretty surprised if the series didn't dig deeper into any if that.
@@Paraludic lmao eluded too, that should be the basis of the show I don't think people grasp who exactly Ronin was and what he did, actions have consequences, 5 years of your life should have repercussions They are not going to dig deeper into this
@@anjolatope-babalola2338 Do you have the scripts for the next half of the season to base that nonsense take on? No? I don't know why you're trying to laugh off the clear story beats that Clint is troubled by his past. He wants to gibe up the hero stuff to be with the family, and his reaction to watching the Broadway show shows he's deeply effected by his friend's death. Now people know Ronin is back, he's already been forced to deal with the consequences of his past, namely Maya, who's father was killed by him. If there's anything else I can ealk you through just let me know.
@@Paraludic It goes both ways, do you have the scripts for the next half of the season to base your theory on. Lmao, in story telling , they tell you to show and not tell, we have had about 15 min of screen time with him and his family, and him trying to get the suit is not dealing with the consequences of being Ronin, Having bits and pieces is not the same thing as having yeh a how based on that singular concept. like I said people do not understand the concept of Ronin, or what he did , he decimated the criminal underworld, lmao, that takes a toll on you, and we have not been shown the effects it had on him, he still seems to be the same guy. There should be far more consequences for what he did, than echo chasing down her father killer. I don't know why you are arguing with me, if you like the show good for you, I want a show based on the concept of him dealing with Ronin and the effect of the blip, this show is not based of that, Kate is the driving force of this show, not a bad concept, although yeh execution is not perfect, but it's not the concept I want Damn

Just like Ironfist, men step aside for the woman to take over their title because they are so much better. Vera Farmiga's talent is wasted in this show.
to be fair, Iron Fish was the worst thing in his own show... can't really blame them for letting the iron chick be lead. she was the only reason to watch the show...
Having grown up with shows like Star Trek The Next Generation, I just can't stand these filler shows that seem to be the norm now. Tales that could be told in a third of the time are dragged out and stuffed full of filler and set-up for future shows that in turn contain more filler.
agree 100%. I'm also a TNG guy and I recall episodes having infinitely more compelling and thoughtful stories in the 45-minute runtime than in any of the disney series in total.
You clearly have a selective memory, there were literally TONS of "filler trash" in the 90s.... It sure as hell wasn't all TNG, X-Files and Babylon 5...
Yep, know what you mean. Yellowstone is doing that. Everything is exposition for the spin offs coming, and because of this, I just lost interest in it.
It seems it's today's strategy. People are not liking our movies. Call them sexists and only focus on that. It's the Kathleen Kennedy approac of producingh. It's actively rewarded instead of being criticised at Disney. Appealing a story for the most people is bland at the end. Look at McDonald's french fries. They are the same worldwide and hardly differ. The revenue is there. Just don't expect anything amazing for success anymore.
Problem is his criticisms are flat out wrong and just stemming from an anti SJW hate boner. He’s saying it’s woke, but how exactly? Kate Bishop is a girl and she’s a lead? That’s not woke. He just can’t handle a female being a lead. And before he says “uh I like 4 female leads from 40 years ago,” let me ask you this: How is this show woke? In what way is it woke besides Kate Bishop being a girl? If you’re only fucking problem is that she’s a woman, the problem isn’t the writing. It’s you
It also helps that Gary is just a transphobic POS and I would not be surprised if he was sexist too. He makes fun of trans people on his streams with Jeremy and Ryan and when a trans man says his pronouns are he/him, he proceeds to chant “you’re still a woman” and rant about how “you’ll never become a man”
Wow. The leftist above me is just stuffed full of anger. Calm your roll my dude. You can't be tr@nzf0bic, they don't exist. It's called g3nder dyzph0ri@, and because I have to say it like that you know I'm right. No need to censor liers after all.
@@Zathren You’re seriously going to say the term transphobic isn’t correct. The dictionary definition of transphobia is “discrimination against transgender people” That’s exactly what Gary did. What’s the difference? And yes I’m fucking mad. Because Gary is a shit human being who can’t let go of his ego
Ah, I knew there was something about Kelly SUUUUUE's comment at the start that's always bugged me: If I'm not a fan of your politics, of course I'm not going to buy your books. That used to be the baseline back in the day. So, she assumes the only thing stopping people from enjoying her self-prescribed works is your politics.
Some write their politics, some question it; some write what they know, some try to reach the other side. All are welcome, all are useful, interesting and necessary. Many "liberal" authors don't seem to get this anymore. Neither do their publishers or many of their readers. About the only ones who appreciate pluralism and individuality anymore, surprisingly, are dyed-in-the-wool conservatives. Interesting shift we're going through-- liberals becoming more conservative, conservatives becoming more liberal; progressives and independents towing the line, doing the heavy lifting, waiting for the others to get their heads on straight.
@@GinNBoost Yeah right! That's why you had to change your comment that it would suck! They weren't going to show ANY trailer. The LEAKS ruined all those surprises. Let that sink in. Gonna sell out.
I agree with most of what you said. However, may be because they actually treated Hawkeye with respect, I felt like it was a huge improvement over Loki and Falcon and Wintersoldier.
@@OfficialTaskMaster The problem with Loki was the whole time they degenerating the character and female Loki was of course the best most powerful version of the character.

Yes indeed! I started the series 20 years ago.... And had high hopes for the TV adaptation. So far, it's nothing but a diversity fest. Literally no one cast matches the appearance, or even the personality of the Robert Jordan books. 🤷♂️
@@yikesvikes is the storyline in sync with the books? Like the man hating red aesadie or whatsoever they are called, also does the book also have that men can use the source garbage? Please if you have the time please answer, I really wanna like the show but I hate anything with a touch of sjw, efininism aka misandry, woke postmodernist, neo-marxist critical theory bs! only reason am still watching is to judge if they are just plot tropes and not core messages of the story.
Yes, the reds hate men, and yes. Men who could touch/use the male side of the source were hunted and "gentled".... If you watch the "extras" videos, they do a better job filling in some of the blanks.... However, as I Mentioned, the appearance and personalities of the characters are different than in the books. Lan, for example, was not Asian. The girl whose name begins with an "N", who was the village Wisdom, wasn't black. The girl who plays Rand's love interest wasn't Indian. The kid who plays Perrin (The blacksmith) wasn't black, and not only was he not married, he was painfully shy around girls (Remember, they started out as kids in their late teens in the books). .... Logain was captured, and eventually gentled, but I believe somehow regained his abilities (I could be wrong - the first books were written 20+ years ago) ....

On the contrivances in the episodes, don’t forget Kate coincidentally wearing clothes that make people think she’s a waitress, granting her access to and is responsible for her not being thrown out of the black market auction
Not to forget the dismal security on that auction - anyone carrying drinks or food can just enter and the guards didn't know that just one waiter was supposed to be there? No wonder track suit idiots could get in.
not coincidentally, her mother made her wear fancy dress for the party but after seeing her mother with Jack she rebelled. Instead of wearing something feminine like a dress her mother prepared for her, she wore a man-like suit that completely the opposite.
@@theoph1932 You just proved that it IS coincidental, as she supposedly chose the same suit as the waiters, and it's not like she done it on purpose as everything was unexpected in the auction.
I've worked high events. No way stuff like this gets pulled off. The head of the co. or a high employee is always always in charge. You can't change your thoughts without any approval. They don't fuk with their clients and mess up like that
Maybe I’m odd man out, but I am enjoying Hawkeye. Kate is not coming across as a Mary Sue as we saw her practice, she is coming across as a Hawkeye fan girl. Which she is.
Yea, I agree. Under the "M-she-U" theory, she'd come in just as strong, capable, and heroic as Clint, and she definitely doesn't. She makes mistakes and she often admits that she doesn't know everything, particularly when she's with Clint. I'm actually enjoying it 🤷🏻
Nope, I'm with you too, brother.. It's a good show. I'm very much liking the "buddy movie" thing going on with Kate and Clint.. And we ALL know that "buddy movies" have the young, cocky, brash,, over-confident one who fucks up (which is Kate), and the more calm, stable, experienced hand who tries to rein them in a bit (which is Clint).. Some people can't stand that it's a girl doing the "brash, young, cocky" thing...
@@kingoffriesthekingwillrise1701 Well said mate. While the show is certainly not perfect (but then, what show is?), it's entertaining and fun enough with some really good and appealing actors doing the thing that they're good at. and sometimes that's just what you need .
FYI. Recurve and compound bows go by draw weight , usually marketed child’s , womens, and mens. One is almost the same as kids. Girl Hawkeye can only shoot 18 yards with practice tips. Explosives tips probably hit the ground at 5.

I've got no interest in spending the next decade watching another Hawkeye, another Captain America, another Iron Man, another Black Widow, another Hulk, another Thor, another Spider-Man. Will we get a third decade after this where they continue on with all the same "mantles?"
Female heroes ....Storm the series where she fights Callisto X-men 170 and the aftermath that made her shave her head....That story hit home with me 30 years ago. She has been so "diminished" by every single person that has tried to put her on any screen...That story still effects me. I can relate to it in many ways. Don't need to make male heroes into female heroes. Tell the story of the female heroes that have substance. Wanna female villain with substance...try Callisto
X-Men had some solid female characters. Not just Storm, but also Jean Grey (and I wish hacks would stop trying to make the Phoenix arc into movies), Kitty Pride, and Moira McTaggart. Pre-Disney MCU had good female characters, too, in Pepper Pots, Black Widow, and Scarlet Witch. Then Disney comes along and turns all of the deep, complex characters into cartoon stereotypes. Which is ironic, because all of their live action remake$ have been turning complex animated characters into cartoonish live action characters for a decade now. Seriously, fuck Disney.
Every time I hear "M-She-U" I groan, because it is true and oh so depressing. You know what's even more depressing? All the shows from WV to this, but no DD Season 4.
I've never seen anyone say "M-She-U" outside of incel trolls. What the hell is that even about? The original MCU had one female member of the team. One. After Black Widow being the only one for ages, they added a few others, all of which were mostly unimportant. -- Gamora is a tier 2 character. -- Wanda was given zero depth in the movies. -- Captain Marvel was just a badly written, badly made movie. -- Valkyrie was a tier 3 character. -- Can't even think of any others. And now in the Disney Plus series: -- WandaVision definitely starred a woman and it was fantastic -- Falcon & The Winter Soldier had no women lead characters, just a badly written female villain -- Loki had Sylvie but this was brilliant as a self-absorbed douche like Loki would of course fall for himself. -- Hawkeye is about attracting younger girls to the MCU and that's great, not every story must be a gritty, dark and bloody and targeted to 16-year-old boys. The more the merrier. And yet the contrast between Clint and Kate Bishop does tell us a lot more about Clint. Really loving it so far. Seems like a lot children in here just don't like it when everything is not always made for them, all the time.
@@CharlieSoze You don't get it. Problem is not that woman is on the first plan. Problem is to empower woman you trash male characters. Or side line them. It happened with Loki. Let me remind you that this Loki was Loki from 2012. Compare his character and action from movie and then from series. It make no sense. Why they call Hawkeye show when main character is obviously that girl? Are they afraid that woman won't sell that much? I call it hipocrysy. Its just a new pattern in cinema. Woman can't be flawless, and if they are evil, it's bc some men. About Wanda. Show was good. Till last minutes when they let her go bc woman don't need to face consequences of their actions. You don't need to have woman character, or male character to attract to something. All you need is good story and good characters. Do you know who showed me star wars? My mon and my auntie. My father hate it. Yet today Disney tell us that it was forbidden for woman to like star wars cause male character so they can't relate. Bullshit. By this analogy, alien franchise needs now male lead, cause clearly fandom is 100% woman.
@@Negative921 It's no use trying to reason with people like Charlie. They only have a set level of pre-programmed responses and are not equipped to handle actual conversation.
Maybe cuz she’s not a villain. She’s going to be an Anti Hero. She’s under the Kingpin. The Kingpin has lied to her her whole life. She’s not just a villain
Whenever we have people who don’t read the source material, we get guys like gene that doesn’t know what they’re talking about. She’s not set up to be a villain
@@imeralvarado4645 Doesn't matter if they have read the source material or not. Firstly you should be able to absorb the show on its own and understand who characters are and what their motivations are. That points to somewhat poor writing, at minimum. Secondly, his response is just typical of people within the "comicsgate" fan base. They just shit on anything that isn't what they specifically want. The people they follow may offer nuanced takes but, for them, it's all or nothing.
20:32 it’s shown in homecoming that there are people that clean up superhero messes and there are also people who take advantage from it like the vulture
"Counsels him a little bit on his hearing aid. Telling him to ditch it, and just rely on his senses." She's telling him to eliminate one of his senses to rely on his senses. What kind of sense does that make?
Tbh, this is EXACTLY what I expected from Disney MCU. I had so low ecpectations that I actually was happy when I saw that Kate Bishop wasn't completely flawless but that she could make mistakes and didn't win everything and beat everybody without breaking a sweat... and I can't help feeling sad for being happy about such a minor thing since that reminds me how bad things have gotten.
@@ShadowSonic2 The problem has never been female superheroes, it's when it has to devalue or diminish superheroes of other genders, because of that it becomes problematic. Hawkeye would have been a good show if there was more quality in the cast and also in the plot and screen time. But it's obvious it's a low budget series below any other Marvel tv show so far. Again most people are not concerned with adding female superheroes, they are concerned with the method in doing so. By taking things away from the already established male characters it's not making the brand stronger but quite the reverse. When it's possible to still have two cookies and being able to eating them it's just becomes quite obvious that Marvel doesn't understand or wants it to continue.
@@gustaf3811 When there is a winner, there must always be a loser. Hawkeye IS a good show, it's just about the characters who matter in the long run. The method being, making sure the women are all shrieking damsels. Anything else is "SJW". When there is a winner, there must always be a loser. Not when one cookie is older, had its time, and is cracking and crumbling.
There’s been a consistent pattern of lightly crapping on Steve Rogers in just about every show and movie since Endgame. It’s pissing me off. You don’t need to deconstruct him, and you don’t need to tear him down just to make Sam look good. In fact, I was pretty happy with Sam being Cap, but now I’m starting to change my mind because of all of that. 😡
And how tf are they crapping at him? Just because he is called Steve Rogers? So they aren't allowed to call him by his own name? Also they are tributing him in No Way Home
@@aviram7129 When you never, or barely ever refer to a character by their 'superhero' name, you're trying to disassociate them from that mantle altogether. It's obvious they don't want people to immediately think of Steve Rogers as ever having been 'Captain America' at this point.
@@TromaDogg If they think that then they wouldn't be erecting giant statues to honour him and btw Vision called Steve Captain Rogers in 2016's Civil War so what are you guys gonna say for that?
@@aviram7129 statues don't mean shit if it's not going to be referenced in furture scenes. They can easily show any statue of a character and it will all end there,it won't signify much.. Unlike the Name of a character. Names are powerful, Names can make or break you. Names are what makes us who we are,they are the foundation of identity,removing it is basically removing who you are and what you represent. So them trying to ignore Steve being the OG Cap by not referencing his Superhero name is simply discrediting him. Plain and simple. Oh and Vision calling Steve Captain Rogers is simply them still discrediting Steve,all of these are planned.. And if you can't see that well i can't force feed you to.
Ppl always start crying when a female becomes a hero...Kate Bishop actually takes over in the comics, plus think of Jeremy Renner, no actor wants to do the same role for years. Let the man go spend time with his daughter, damn!!
Not only that, but actors who play these roles age, unlike in the comics. Renner is in his 50's. I'd say that it's probably about time for this show to be done, pass on the mantle, and show that Clint is finally going to be able to be with his family.
If that's what HE wants, then yes; but DON'T call it the Hawkeye show and mislead fans of *Hawkeye* the man (not the future female version). Has Renner said anything about wanting to quit this role? It's the role of a lifetime. Do you think he's got enough star power e.g. like a Stallone or an Arnie, to walk away from a superhero role? Did Christopher Reeve's star continue to burn after Superman? Did Tobey Maguire's after Spider-Man? From what I've seen of the man in interviews, Renner has his head firmly screwed on and knows that Hawkeye is his career role; and he's going to want to keep on playing it like Shatner played Kirk.
@@KeldorDAntrell ur talking about nothing...I can chop everything u jus said down wit this. The show is called Hawkeye, is it called, Clint Bartons Hawkeye? Guess wat Kate Bishop is also called in the comic books, Hawkeye. And unless u talked to Jeremy Renner, u don't kno if he wanna continue to play one role, he's in his 50s and not every actor wants to play the same role. Chris Evans is even leaving, and he's younger. But because ur a fanboy, does that mean he should still be captain America?
When disney does the bait and switch like that, it does the new characters such a disservice. People who tuned in to get OG hawkeye got kate bishop instead and potential new fans of kate bishop didn't tune in at all.
Anyone who saw the trailer or paid any attention to what the show was other than going on the title alone would have known the show was about Clint and Kate. This 'bait and switch' mantra you neckbeards are shouting is such a non-argument.
@@Paraludic It was the same with Masters of the Universe: Revelations. It's not the Clint Barton show, it's called Hawkeye. Just like it wasn't the He-Man show.
Clint has been in every single episode. He kicked all kinds of ass in episode 3 .. I just wish you guys would own up to the fact that this critique comes from a place of insecurity in your own manhood. The show is called Hawkeye because Clint is Hawkeye, and whether you like it or not, Kate bishop on the comics is Hawkeye. The show is called Hawkeye and both the central characters are Hawkeye, there’s no bait and switch, just your own insecurity.
I watched loki because Tom Huddleston was in it and alligator loki is cool. That is what Disney MCU is now. You watch bits and pieces of shows where your fave actors are in it.
Yeah at this point you can't even be mad at Disney. Are you expecting something good on Disney +? Of course they're going to replace all the A list celebrities with diversity hires. It's a waste of time even covering this crap.
@@sirennoir258 Loki seemed super interesting on paper, but the show itself ended up being quite underwhelming and predictable. All the same tropes and issues that this channel has been pointing to for months (years?) now. As most of the Marvel stuff nowadays, we're talking about decent ideas with generally bad execution.
The old Disney use to have traditional family values, no one was marginalized. Now, if you are a male? It's problematic because now it's fashionable to turn the patriarchy within the family into a Homer Simpson or Peter Griffin. As far as Hawkeye goes, it's whatever I'm not interested because Gary is describing it as I imagined it would be, awful. Only hope I have for Marvel is Spider-Man, got my IMAX ticket and my fingers crossed. C'mon Sony, don't fuck it up!
The show is fun and engaging. I hated cap & falcon because it was just bad storytelling & uneven in tone. Almost none of the stuff they complain about here are the actual things wrong with the new Disney era.
Until Episode 4 where she starts acting like an insufferable know-it-all, not listening to Clint when he tells her to do something and she just does the opposite, thinking she can do what she wants because she can handle herself. Like when Tony Stark did this to Peter Parker, not only did he put him in his place and confiscate his suit, people were like "mmm-hmm", especially when Peter kept talking back. But no, here we get none of that and Hawkeye is made to look like the a-hole, especially when he tells Kate, "You're not my partner. Go home.".
Jeremy Renner is awesome. He's turning the shitty writing and material to respectable trash. This show was never going to be what it should have been because it's owned by the mouse.
I'm a bit dissapointed, as much as I love the Fraction run, that Clint is not the true protagonist. I wanted to see his origin and watch him being a teacher and leader, not a grumpy oldman.
The Mouse has nothing to do with any of the marvel content. And the content is as good now as it always has been, Renner is great but he's got great material to work with because marvel delivers
Being a huge fan of the two main stars, this is actually very sad. Fantastic actors. For those who do not know already, Hailee is the voice of Vi' in Arcane, so not a totally bad month for her ;)
YO FOR REAL?! She's Vi?! ... Holy shit, I already liked her since she was good in Bumblebee but that just elevates her to a whole new level because the voice acting was beyond top notch in Arcane.
The actor can`t really do much about the material he/she gets to work with. And you can't blame an actor for taking a job since it is a job. And yeah, with Arcane she really hit the mark, as in: great show, and she did really good as a voice actor

It ended at Endgame hence the name, anything else is just extra, so I don't feel tied to the franchise too much, I'll just rewatch the first three phases.
Marvel have adapted content to either shows and movies in light of launching the D+ service and the following pandemic. Some decisions will miss the mark but overall, they are a billion dollar corporation that surely don’t mind some ideas “failing”.
Every single one of their shows is a 'bait and switch' or subverting expectations. General audiences are tired of this crap and it's really only the Marvel 'Stans' watching at this point.
Please keep in mind that the Vulture and his Damage Control were cleaning up after the Chitauri attack, and he sold the goods on the black market. The Avengers didn't "leave everything behind," the crew responsible was crooked.
Idk man I agree that marvel are overdoing it with the female characters, I hated Taskmaster, and Captain Marvel, they felt forced. But I really enjoyed this show so far and I love the Kate Bishop character in the show. I think you're being too harsh.
Disney should follow the path of Lord of the Rings and get an army of Marvel nerds as consultants. AT least that will get something close to what the fans want as an end product. And 100% agree, this bait and switch and identity politics on steroid agenda is going to ruin Disney+ and Marvel, unless they can just get back to telling good stories on the screen.
Daredevil season 1 on Netflix was FANTASTIC! 👏👏😍 You can bet that if Daredevil comes to Disney/Marvel, we won't have anywhere the same level of quality. 😒
Ya know people always say season 1 and 3 is a masterpiece in story telling and season 2 isnt as good but really great nonetheless. And those people are right haha. That was it....go watch it if you havent
It has gotten to the point where we have people calling everything “woke” and “SJW” even when it was no SJW influence at all. Kate Bishop wasn’t a Mary Sue; she got her ass kicked in almost every fight. Hawkeye wasn’t treated like an idiot and in fact this is probably the best we have seen the character. The problem is that these “critics” watch the trailers or the firsts two episodes and declare it to be “woke propaganda” because calling stuff “woke” sells just as good as calling stuff “racist”.

Maybe I'm in the minority here but I've really enjoyed this series thus far (on episode 5). Disney was pretty upfront with what the show was going to be about so I really don't see an issue with it. Even if they are moving more towards an M-She-U scenario at least they are still more or less sticking to an already established cannon of females taking the mantle of this or that. There also has not been any part in the story yet that pushes how awesome or more amazing Kate is than Clint. He's still the major bad@ss of the series and more often than not ends up having to save/help her out of whatever mess she has gotten herself into. I know the bar is set pretty low using the Star Wars Sequels & MOTU Revelations as the standard but compared to how those portrayed women with power to the men Hawkeye as a series could almost be called Hyper Masculine. Out of all the Disney Plus MCU series this is the one that I have enjoyed the most.
Yeah, the show is pretty good. And Hawkeye is definitely featured more than enough. I don't consider it the Kate Bishop show at all. And yeah, of course you're the minority on a channel like this.
to me the only problem is that there feels like there are no stakes. you would expect a character to be at least a little bit scared that theyre being hunted down but shes completely fearless when her life is on the line and she has literally no experience so it makes no sense, unless the characters completely insane which i doubt
The first episode of the show called Hawkeye worked to introduce Kate Bishop, y'know Hawkeye. It also worked to establish what Clint's up to as well and charts how these characters cross paths. What is so hard to understand about that basic narrative stricture? Seriously, because a lot of these heavily right-leaning 'fans' seem genuinely baffled by it.
I think the problem is that the show is called Hawkeye. Like when I buy a cheeseburger but it’s just bun and a post it with the word burger written on it. Sure I’ll eat it. But it doesn’t go down that well.
@@goth_ross That analogy only works if you ignore all the posters on the way to.the ship advertising that as being what you'd get. You don't need to like it, but don't be surprised that's what a burger there looks like.
Can we please stop having 130 pound actresses in action roles in which they are depicted as being capable of fighting and beating 250 pound fully grown men!!! It is beyond stupid and unrealistic. In real life the men would overpower the woman in 5 seconds flat.
@Rune Kristensen Except THIS superhero show has normal, albeit highly trained, HUMANS. No super serum. No gamma rays. No radioactive spiders. Simple physics should come into play. i.e. there's a reason boxers, wrestlers, MMA fighters, etc. are divided by weight class.
@Rune Kristensen So there’s this thing called suspension of disbelief that happens when we enjoy a piece of entertainment. We can buy into a bullshit explanation like “this serum gives this person superpowers” or “this person is super strong cause they’re from another planet” but when you set something in a more “real” representation of our world with real people then the audience is gonna expect that the rules of physics will be followed. That’s the problem here. The actress is barely 130 pounds and is supposed to be a normal person. A very athletic normal person but a normal person regardless. In a realistic scenario a woman who weight 130 pounds would get absolutely pulverized by a guy who weighs literally double her weight. Most fit men can benchpress 130 pounds. Seeing stupid shit like this completely breaks immersion and ruins the stakes in the show. I mean give her a gun and have her shot the people. Someone’s weight and strength doesn’t really matter when shooting someone but don’t show her able to beat like 10 fully grown men. In reality if she tried that she’d be dead.
@Rune Kristensen I feel like someone has a fetish for seeing little girls beat up big strong guys and is just trying to find an excuse to justify it. News flash, superheroes aren’t actually real. We buy into stupid shit like this when it’s fantastical because the genre is “fantasy”. When they make it more grounded and realistic like the did with Hawkeye then the audience will subconsciously expect a greater degree of “realism” and in reality a little girl can’t beat up fully grown men. They could’ve just given her like some fucking superpowers or something and then explain it that way. That would’ve been more believable in a show like this!
If this show would have follow Clint, I would have gladly pay for my subscription. But Disney offer us new character who did not even deserve to be pirated.
@@MichaelAChristian1 wrong no one is watching "Hawkeye" for Kate Bitchup. In fact no one is watching anything woke these days hence all the box office bombs and the failed feminist shit Seth Rogan cooked up "SantaInc".
@@spndusk2362 How is Hawkeye woke so far?? But I don't really care about Hawkeye though. So maybe you are big Hawkeye fan and thought the trailer was saying it was something different. It like buying Mgs2 and getting Raiden I guess. I'd rather have Kate though.
I think everyone over reacting.. Kate ain't Captain Marvel or Rey Skywalker.. She not all powerful or so full of herself and knows absolutely everything there is to know about everything. She's not showing up Clint.. She very respectful and she's always trying to get Clint to train her or teach her something..
I thought the first three episodes of Hawkeye were pretty good. I do like Kate so far. She's *not* a Mary-Sue. Yet. But I did ideally want that "hard, gritty, violent, Clint Barton" show in the vein of the Bourne movies. Now I'm sad. lol
It's not Netflix marvel, it's MCU No way it wouldn't be PG-13, it has to be. And if Kate Bishop isn't a Mary Sue now, she can't become one later. That's not how being a Mary Sue works. If she's got ability & it's clearly defined how she has it and how much she worked for it, she can't be a Mary Sue however much idiots like Gary want her to be
@@ChildOfTheWilderness I see you have no idea how Mary Sues work. If she suddenly starts having everything work out for her and she's capable of doing things far beyond her capabilities while being praised as the bestest EVAR than she certainly can become a Mary Sue. But whatever dude, you're just here to be a jack wagon and high five yourself.
The biggest problem is Disney keeps inundating us. Nothing to look forward to. Build up anticipation for series or movie. They just keep regurgitating these shows to fast
We needed a gritty show that would've cemented Clint as the MCU's John Wick. Sucks that that ain't happening. Jeremy Renner is great in this, but the writing is awful and they're trying their hardest to ruin Hawkeye.
@@christmasgoomba1460 There are some bad comics so I don't know about that. I never read it but Hawkeye is pretty good so far. I knew it was about Kate so I don't know who thought it would be a solo Hawkeye adventure when he was retired in movies.
Not really into the superhero programming anymore, still love my era of comics. However, I do love what you are doing and every episode is engaging and honest. Well done!
I wouldn’t call it a flop. It’s actually one of the better shows out of the 5 we’ve gotten. I really hate that people treat this show as if it’s woke. It’s not.
Seriously, it's really not. People are saying it's woke cause... kate is a girl? Literally the series never points it out or even mentions it. She's just doing her shit and happens to be a gal, but i guess people are too pressed about it
Dear Disney: SAM WILSON IS NOT AND WILL NEVER BE CAPTAIN AMERICA!!! That title belongs to Steve alone. Speaking of which...at the end of Endgame...why the hell didnt he give the shield to Bucky, his best friend for 90 years, instead of a guy with a wingsuit he met jogging?
I think and I really am just speculating trying to understand this fact. I think it’s because there might actually have been a split in the timeline where when he did go back and lived a life with Peggy he could’ve gave it to Bucky instead there. This would make disneys choice better ig but then the hole in this theory is how Steve came back to the original timeline then. I’m just theorizing here and what likely happened was “OMG guys guess what how about we have captain America BLACK for diversity 😊”.
To be fair on the stock price front, everything has been tanking since last Friday, so its hard to tell what the effect of subscriber news would have been in a "normal" market. Disclosure: I sold all my $DIS after Endgame and will not consider holding again without some major changes. As a fan I hope it tanks to the point they make them.
The appreciation that I have in my heart for Gary and his content is pretty huge. I connect with it in the same way that I connected with old friends. I miss having friends like that, where the heck did everybody go? I mean he dropped a UHF clip in this one, I was not expecting to get hit with that today. Thank you Gary.
“Hawkeye” is abysmal. Episode 3, the woke writers were sure to include a female, Native American, deaf, physically handicapped antagonist, portrayed in school with numerous races and a Muslim teacher. And that eclipses any effort put into writing a compelling or interesting story as long as all those boxes are checked. WHY is Clint even in NYC to see a play that’s inconsistent with his character “remaining under the radar”? Wouldn’t an Avenger at an Avenger play draw attention? It’s set at Christmas but the music feels out of place. Clint is a freaking assassin Avenger and barely makes it through a fight with the female antagonist. The dialogue is terrible. It’s so bad and depressing.
@@agenttronster6373 If the actors need to continually explain things, the writing is poor and that takes place "literally in this scene!" (Please note the exclamation point, as that makes me right)
Keep in mind Hawkeye lost to Black Widow in the first Avengers movie, and the two fought to a stand still in the Civil War movie. I think the primary intention of Hawkeye struggling with Echo's fight was to show she's in the realm of Black Widow in fighting ability.
This is bullshit. Hawkeye is good. Episode 4 just dropped and it was damn good. I'm sold on the MCU Kate Bishop. She reminds me of The Gilmore Girls, with her stupid optimistic smile, and she hilarious when she can bounce off a straight man like Cliff Hawkeye.
Sometimes it seems like Nerdrotic dislikes anything with women in it just because there are women in it. This isn’t she-mcu. Bishop isn’t a perfect character and is learning from Barton through the show.
It's more like the actor is giving her all and making it work , could you imagine Brie Larson type actress in the roll. Nerdrotic is more dissapointed at the sidelining of Hawkeye in a show quite literally called Hawkeye. His character yes is used as a mentor to Kate but Clint doesn't have the same character development as Tony stark did when he mentored Peter Parker thus less satisfying when he gives up the role of Hawkeye when we the audience never never got to see the full potential of Clint as Hawkeye.
The important thing you're failing to mention is that Kate Bishop BECOMES hawkeye, it's a title, that goes from Clint to Kate, this is effectively the hawkeye show, talking about both their stories while establishing Kate (among other characters) in the MCU
@@Kay0Bot Hawkeye is also her name in the comics, if you want to blame anyone for that, don't blame the show. Also, it's not lazy, it's a title that both use, probably to illustrate some stuff in the comics,,, no-one is calling the writers of Miles Morales lazy because he's also called spider-man
Daredevil begins with Matt asking for forgiveness and beating the thugs Jessica Jones begins with Jessica Jones doing her P.I stuff whereas Hawkeye begins with the character who is going to replace him (3rd Episode was better than the first 2)
It's not just these films. It's been going on in TV shows for quite awhile now as well. Just look at some of the female team members on the original "NCIS". One was explained away because she was a Mossad agent, another was explained because she grew up with brothers. Like that bends the laws of physics.
16:44 “we can’t go 5 minutes without subtly or not so subtly emasculating a man on a Disney plus show.” Dude. Look at the room behind you. Running out of room for your plushies?
It’s not emasculating, it’s just the standard ass background for “UA-camr talking about nerd shit” It’s a rule that if a UA-camr is going to talk about comic books or Star Wars or whatever they must have 5 tons of toys behind them to make the viewer understand they are a real fan and nerd just like them.
Notice how when they're talking about Hawkeye in a negative way they use Jeremy Renner's photo...even though he's literally just a cameo star in his own show. Same with Loki...Can't have that negative press pointed at the females..lol
Yeah I noticed a lot of people dissing Jeremy and Clint when it was revealed that Hawkeye had the lowest amount of viewership numbers among the D+ MCU shows when Clint didn’t even have major screentime during the first episode. Obviously if the show had opened with high viewership, they’d praise Hailee and Kate. Some double-standard world we live in…
"Literally a cameo" 🤣🤦♂️ he's been in it loads. I do love it when people are dishonest with themselves just to give themselves something to be mad at.
@@alvin2021 You do realize this is her show right? He's just there to transition her in...like seriously, im assuming if you're coming at me with that weak argument you at least know what the plan is for the show. lol
@@JeremiahHartmanPhotography maybe Renner is done with the role after 10 years, But to state Renner has "literally a cameo" is SO far off being accurate its just laughable to me, but you go ahead with that narrative......why not👍
This man is so triggered by SJW's that he himself is becoming one. My guy called this movie terrible after a couple episodes then goes and calls it great in a livestream once it's done. What is this guys issue
Watched the first 2 episodes... and it's fine. Nothing to get your panties in twist about, nothing really to praise, except I do appreciate they gave her a backstory where she worked hard to become skilled, it wasn't just inherent, that she struggles and fails at things, learns and grows. Honestly, what I expect from an actual character at her level. Still on board to see how it progresses.
I very much agree. I was very glad to see that even though she knows how to fight she has no real practical experience and she comes off as clumsy. I think the series does suffer from the same thing as most of the Disney+ MCU series - that once they’re over you don’t really ever need to revisit them again. I think this series will be fine but when people are done with it they’re not gonna go back.
Yeah, she just didn't put on a costume of a man who trained for years to be the best there is and have that costume somehow miraculously give her all that hero's powers and abilities. Hawkeye is a low key hero with Clint being a quiet guy who doesn't want to be noticed. Kate wants to be a noticeable hero. I really get early Batman and Robin vibes from the two. If only it wasn't so woke and poorly written and plotted. Still, I think the best of all the shows.
I love Hawkeye... and Kate Bishop , the way she is inspired by Hawkeye... I just loved it. I don't get this video, because the show was called Hawkeye and there have been two Hawkeye's for years now. Hailee Steinfeld is doing a fantastic job as Kate.
Biggest beef I have had is the destruction of all male characters by Disney. My daughters favorite Super Heroes have been Spider-Man and Iron Man. They don't talk about the girl characters at all except maybe Gwen Stacy. Guys want to look up to a hero and women want a hero
She probably looks up to male heroes cause they’re not doing a good job writing female heroes at all. It’s hard to sympathize with a hero with no weakness.
Absolutely awesome review as the ones done before! Thank you for calling out MCU and Disney for the absolute crap they are making now. My heart is crying for the original Avengers. Introduction of new characters at the expense of the old, established, and loved ones is absolutely pitiful.
No reason tht they couldn't have introduced these new characters but have them fight side by side with the originals, rather than branding the originals obselete -presumably because they aren't female. 👎

Honestly, the best thing in the show by a country mile is the fact that Hawkeye is just tired of everything and just wants to get home for Christmas

Something no one mentions about this show that was so absurd -
No police anywhere in NYC. A gun shootout featuring dozens of known criminals firing guns for 10 minutes in Rockefeller Center, and not a single cop shows up until the whole battle is over. There are cops all over Rockefeller Center on any given day, let alone Christmas season. And they are never more than a few blocks away in midtown Manhattan. Were they all on Xmas vacay?
It's a TV show about superheroes..... you believe cop response time is the same for a TV show about people with super powers. Are you a child?
@@abshackleford ironic since there are no superpowered beings in this series unless you count kingpins body size as one

But Mercury (and John Deacon) were very proud of the album, thinking it was ahead of its time. As for Brian and especially Roger, their distain for it has been stated numerous times. And shockingly, it was fairly well-received by most critics.

I honestly wanted to see what how Clint dealt with being Ronin for 5 years and the loss of Black widow.
How would he start relating with the outside world now that his anchor(his family is back) how does that 5 years affect him, how does it affect his relationship with his family
The season is only halfway through and those things habe already been alluded to. I'd be pretty surprised if the series didn't dig deeper into any if that.
@@Paraludic lmao eluded too, that should be the basis of the show

@@anjolatope-babalola2338 Do you have the scripts for the next half of the season to base that nonsense take on? No?
I don't know why you're trying to laugh off the clear story beats that Clint is troubled by his past. He wants to gibe up the hero stuff to be with the family, and his reaction to watching the Broadway show shows he's deeply effected by his friend's death.
Now people know Ronin is back, he's already been forced to deal with the consequences of his past, namely Maya, who's father was killed by him.
If there's anything else I can ealk you through just let me know.
@@Paraludic It goes both ways, do you have the scripts for the next half of the season to base your theory on.
Lmao, in story telling , they tell you to show and not tell, we have had about 15 min of screen time with him and his family, and him trying to get the suit is not dealing with the consequences of being Ronin, Having bits and pieces is not the same thing as having yeh a how based on that singular concept.
like I said people do not understand the concept of Ronin, or what he did , he decimated the criminal underworld, lmao, that takes a toll on you, and we have not been shown the effects it had on him, he still seems to be the same guy. There should be far more consequences for what he did, than echo chasing down her father killer.
I don't know why you are arguing with me, if you like the show good for you, I want a show based on the concept of him dealing with Ronin and the effect of the blip, this show is not based of that, Kate is the driving force of this show, not a bad concept, although yeh execution is not perfect, but it's not the concept I want

Having grown up with shows like Star Trek The Next Generation, I just can't stand these filler shows that seem to be the norm now. Tales that could be told in a third of the time are dragged out and stuffed full of filler and set-up for future shows that in turn contain more filler.
Well... but then they have to come up with ideas. And that's like... hard, man.
agree 100%. I'm also a TNG guy and I recall episodes having infinitely more compelling and thoughtful stories in the 45-minute runtime than in any of the disney series in total.
You clearly have a selective memory, there were literally TONS of "filler trash" in the 90s.... It sure as hell wasn't all TNG, X-Files and Babylon 5...
Then you get shot like FEAR the walking dead. Who rush the entire premise in a couple of episodes.
Yep, know what you mean. Yellowstone is doing that. Everything is exposition for the spin offs coming, and because of this, I just lost interest in it.
Perfectly summed up: I don’t dislike the actors, just the characters/story
It seems it's today's strategy. People are not liking our movies. Call them sexists and only focus on that. It's the Kathleen Kennedy approac of producingh. It's actively rewarded instead of being criticised at Disney.
Appealing a story for the most people is bland at the end. Look at McDonald's french fries. They are the same worldwide and hardly differ. The revenue is there. Just don't expect anything amazing for success anymore.
Problem is his criticisms are flat out wrong and just stemming from an anti SJW hate boner.
He’s saying it’s woke, but how exactly? Kate Bishop is a girl and she’s a lead? That’s not woke. He just can’t handle a female being a lead.
And before he says “uh I like 4 female leads from 40 years ago,” let me ask you this: How is this show woke? In what way is it woke besides Kate Bishop being a girl? If you’re only fucking problem is that she’s a woman, the problem isn’t the writing. It’s you
It also helps that Gary is just a transphobic POS and I would not be surprised if he was sexist too. He makes fun of trans people on his streams with Jeremy and Ryan and when a trans man says his pronouns are he/him, he proceeds to chant “you’re still a woman” and rant about how “you’ll never become a man”

Please if you have the time please answer, I really wanna like the show but I hate anything with a touch of sjw, efininism aka misandry, woke postmodernist, neo-marxist critical theory bs! only reason am still watching is to judge if they are just plot tropes and not core messages of the story.
Yes, the reds hate men, and yes. Men who could touch/use the male side of the source were hunted and "gentled".... If you watch the "extras" videos, they do a better job filling in some of the blanks.... However, as I Mentioned, the appearance and personalities of the characters are different than in the books. Lan, for example, was not Asian. The girl whose name begins with an "N", who was the village Wisdom, wasn't black. The girl who plays Rand's love interest wasn't Indian.

The plot holes and plot convenience lost me in this series. I understand it's Marvel, but many of the fights scenes were just straight up goofy.
But it's the best Disney + marvel show so far...oof
Especially the finale. Bullets, explosions falling trees but no cops🤷🏾♂️
On the contrivances in the episodes, don’t forget Kate coincidentally wearing clothes that make people think she’s a waitress, granting her access to and is responsible for her not being thrown out of the black market auction
Not to forget the dismal security on that auction - anyone carrying drinks or food can just enter and the guards didn't know that just one waiter was supposed to be there?
No wonder track suit idiots could get in.
not coincidentally, her mother made her wear fancy dress for the party but after seeing her mother with Jack she rebelled. Instead of wearing something feminine like a dress her mother prepared for her, she wore a man-like suit that completely the opposite.
@@theoph1932 You just proved that it IS coincidental, as she supposedly chose the same suit as the waiters, and it's not like she done it on purpose as everything was unexpected in the auction.
I've worked high events. No way stuff like this gets pulled off. The head of the co. or a high employee is always always in charge. You can't change your thoughts without any approval. They don't fuk with their clients and mess up like that
Yeah, this show is completely dumb. I oddly like that.
Maybe I’m odd man out, but I am enjoying Hawkeye. Kate is not coming across as a Mary Sue as we saw her practice, she is coming across as a Hawkeye fan girl. Which she is.
Yea, I agree. Under the "M-she-U" theory, she'd come in just as strong, capable, and heroic as Clint, and she definitely doesn't. She makes mistakes and she often admits that she doesn't know everything, particularly when she's with Clint. I'm actually enjoying it 🤷🏻
Nope, I'm with you too, brother.. It's a good show. I'm very much liking the "buddy movie" thing going on with Kate and Clint.. And we ALL know that "buddy movies" have the young, cocky, brash,, over-confident one who fucks up (which is Kate), and the more calm, stable, experienced hand who tries to rein them in a bit (which is Clint).. Some people can't stand that it's a girl doing the "brash, young, cocky" thing...
You are not odd. This page hates everything just for views. The arguments they make to try and make this show bad are laughable.

Female heroes ....Storm the series where she fights Callisto X-men 170 and the aftermath that made her shave her head....That story hit home with me 30 years ago. She has been so "diminished" by every single person that has tried to put her on any screen...That story still effects me. I can relate to it in many ways. Don't need to make male heroes into female heroes. Tell the story of the female heroes that have substance. Wanna female villain with substance...try Callisto
X-Men had some solid female characters. Not just Storm, but also Jean Grey (and I wish hacks would stop trying to make the Phoenix arc into movies), Kitty Pride, and Moira McTaggart. Pre-Disney MCU had good female characters, too, in Pepper Pots, Black Widow, and Scarlet Witch. Then Disney comes along and turns all of the deep, complex characters into cartoon stereotypes.
Which is ironic, because all of their live action remake$ have been turning complex animated characters into cartoonish live action characters for a decade now. Seriously, fuck Disney.

Every time I hear "M-She-U" I groan, because it is true and oh so depressing.
You know what's even more depressing? All the shows from WV to this, but no DD Season 4.
M-She-U: Phase Bore
And the M stands for Menstruation
Reddit trolls be like: but there is more male heroes than female so how it is mshu you bigot.
They completely missing the point. Like allways
I've never seen anyone say "M-She-U" outside of incel trolls. What the hell is that even about?
The original MCU had one female member of the team. One. After Black Widow being the only one for ages, they added a few others, all of which were mostly unimportant.
-- Gamora is a tier 2 character.
-- Wanda was given zero depth in the movies.
-- Captain Marvel was just a badly written, badly made movie.
-- Valkyrie was a tier 3 character.
-- Can't even think of any others.
And now in the Disney Plus series:
-- WandaVision definitely starred a woman and it was fantastic
-- Falcon & The Winter Soldier had no women lead characters, just a badly written female villain
-- Loki had Sylvie but this was brilliant as a self-absorbed douche like Loki would of course fall for himself.
-- Hawkeye is about attracting younger girls to the MCU and that's great, not every story must be a gritty, dark and bloody and targeted to 16-year-old boys. The more the merrier. And yet the contrast between Clint and Kate Bishop does tell us a lot more about Clint. Really loving it so far.
Seems like a lot children in here just don't like it when everything is not always made for them, all the time.
@@CharlieSoze You don't get it. Problem is not that woman is on the first plan. Problem is to empower woman you trash male characters. Or side line them. It happened with Loki. Let me remind you that this Loki was Loki from 2012. Compare his character and action from movie and then from series. It make no sense. Why they call Hawkeye show when main character is obviously that girl? Are they afraid that woman won't sell that much? I call it hipocrysy. Its just a new pattern in cinema. Woman can't be flawless, and if they are evil, it's bc some men. About Wanda. Show was good. Till last minutes when they let her go bc woman don't need to face consequences of their actions.
You don't need to have woman character, or male character to attract to something. All you need is good story and good characters. Do you know who showed me star wars? My mon and my auntie. My father hate it. Yet today Disney tell us that it was forbidden for woman to like star wars cause male character so they can't relate. Bullshit. By this analogy, alien franchise needs now male lead, cause clearly fandom is 100% woman.

@@spndusk2362 YES, FINALLY SOMEONE IS OPENING THERE MIND HOW SHITTY BORING THIS SERIES IS
When you have a main villain reminding her lackey on who is in charge, reveals more of her insecurity. That is not how you do a villain.
Maybe cuz she’s not a villain. She’s going to be an Anti Hero. She’s under the Kingpin. The Kingpin has lied to her her whole life. She’s not just a villain
Many villains do this.
Whenever we have people who don’t read the source material, we get guys like gene that doesn’t know what they’re talking about. She’s not set up to be a villain
Thanks for the correction. Echo may not be a villain, but in the M-She-U and to the extent of SJW Marvel comics, the women are written like villains.
@@imeralvarado4645 Doesn't matter if they have read the source material or not.

Hawkeye would have been a good show if there was more quality in the cast and also in the plot and screen time.
But it's obvious it's a low budget series below any other Marvel tv show so far.
Again most people are not concerned with adding female superheroes, they are concerned with the method in doing so.
By taking things away from the already established male characters it's not making the brand stronger but quite the reverse.

There’s been a consistent pattern of lightly crapping on Steve Rogers in just about every show and movie since Endgame. It’s pissing me off. You don’t need to deconstruct him, and you don’t need to tear him down just to make Sam look good. In fact, I was pretty happy with Sam being Cap, but now I’m starting to change my mind because of all of that. 😡
And how tf are they crapping at him? Just because he is called Steve Rogers? So they aren't allowed to call him by his own name? Also they are tributing him in No Way Home
@@aviram7129 When you never, or barely ever refer to a character by their 'superhero' name, you're trying to disassociate them from that mantle altogether. It's obvious they don't want people to immediately think of Steve Rogers as ever having been 'Captain America' at this point.
@@TromaDogg If they think that then they wouldn't be erecting giant statues to honour him and btw Vision called Steve Captain Rogers in 2016's Civil War so what are you guys gonna say for that?

Ppl always start crying when a female becomes a hero...Kate Bishop actually takes over in the comics, plus think of Jeremy Renner, no actor wants to do the same role for years. Let the man go spend time with his daughter, damn!!
Not only that, but actors who play these roles age, unlike in the comics. Renner is in his 50's. I'd say that it's probably about time for this show to be done, pass on the mantle, and show that Clint is finally going to be able to be with his family.
If that's what HE wants, then yes; but DON'T call it the Hawkeye show and mislead fans of *Hawkeye* the man (not the future female version). Has Renner said anything about wanting to quit this role? It's the role of a lifetime. Do you think he's got enough star power e.g. like a Stallone or an Arnie, to walk away from a superhero role? Did Christopher Reeve's star continue to burn after Superman? Did Tobey Maguire's after Spider-Man? From what I've seen of the man in interviews, Renner has his head firmly screwed on and knows that Hawkeye is his career role; and he's going to want to keep on playing it like Shatner played Kirk.
@@KeldorDAntrell ur talking about nothing...I can chop everything u jus said down wit this. The show is called Hawkeye, is it called, Clint Bartons Hawkeye? Guess wat Kate Bishop is also called in the comic books, Hawkeye.

The old Disney use to have traditional family values, no one was marginalized. Now, if you are a male? It's problematic because now it's fashionable to turn the patriarchy within the family into a Homer Simpson or Peter Griffin.

U must have never read fractions hawkeye or young avengers because she was awesome
The show is fun and engaging. I hated cap & falcon because it was just bad storytelling & uneven in tone. Almost none of the stuff they complain about here are the actual things wrong with the new Disney era.
Until Episode 4 where she starts acting like an insufferable know-it-all, not listening to Clint when he tells her to do something and she just does the opposite, thinking she can do what she wants because she can handle herself. Like when Tony Stark did this to Peter Parker, not only did he put him in his place and confiscate his suit, people were like "mmm-hmm", especially when Peter kept talking back. But no, here we get none of that and Hawkeye is made to look like the a-hole, especially when he tells Kate, "You're not my partner. Go home.".
Nope she is not more likeable now I actually hate her
My girlfriend and I really really dislike her.

Maybe I'm in the minority here but I've really enjoyed this series thus far (on episode 5). Disney was pretty upfront with what the show was going to be about so I really don't see an issue with it. Even if they are moving more towards an M-She-U scenario at least they are still more or less sticking to an already established cannon of females taking the mantle of this or that. There also has not been any part in the story yet that pushes how awesome or more amazing Kate is than Clint. He's still the major bad@ss of the series and more often than not ends up having to save/help her out of whatever mess she has gotten herself into. I know the bar is set pretty low using the Star Wars Sequels & MOTU Revelations as the standard but compared to how those portrayed women with power to the men Hawkeye as a series could almost be called Hyper Masculine. Out of all the Disney Plus MCU series this is the one that I have enjoyed the most.
ur the minority here cos the majority here are just haters 😂😅
Agreed
She's also likeable
Yeah, the show is pretty good. And Hawkeye is definitely featured more than enough. I don't consider it the Kate Bishop show at all. And yeah, of course you're the minority on a channel like this.
to me the only problem is that there feels like there are no stakes. you would expect a character to be at least a little bit scared that theyre being hunted down but shes completely fearless when her life is on the line and she has literally no experience so it makes no sense, unless the characters completely insane which i doubt
Clint was a guest star in the first episode of his show. He was on screen for about 15 minutes of an hour show.
i always appreciated clint. i was glad when he got the show he deserved, turned out he didn't.
The first episode of the show called Hawkeye worked to introduce Kate Bishop, y'know Hawkeye.
It also worked to establish what Clint's up to as well and charts how these characters cross paths.
What is so hard to understand about that basic narrative stricture? Seriously, because a lot of these heavily right-leaning 'fans' seem genuinely baffled by it.
I think the problem is that the show is called Hawkeye. Like when I buy a cheeseburger but it’s just bun and a post it with the word burger written on it. Sure I’ll eat it. But it doesn’t go down that well.

@Rune Kristensen So there’s this thing called suspension of disbelief that happens when we enjoy a piece of entertainment. We can buy into a bullshit explanation like “this serum gives this person superpowers” or “this person is super strong cause they’re from another planet” but when you set something in a more “real” representation of our world with real people then the audience is gonna expect that the rules of physics will be followed. That’s the problem here. The actress is barely 130 pounds and is supposed to be a normal person. A very athletic normal person but a normal person regardless. In a realistic scenario a woman who weight 130 pounds would get absolutely pulverized by a guy who weighs literally double her weight. Most fit men can benchpress 130 pounds. Seeing stupid shit like this completely breaks immersion and ruins the stakes in the show. I mean give her a gun and have her shot the people. Someone’s weight and strength doesn’t really matter when shooting someone but don’t show her able to beat like 10 fully grown men. In reality if she tried that she’d be dead.
@Rune Kristensen I feel like someone has a fetish for seeing little girls beat up big strong guys and is just trying to find an excuse to justify it. News flash, superheroes aren’t actually real. We buy into stupid shit like this when it’s fantastical because the genre is “fantasy”. When they make it more grounded and realistic like the did with Hawkeye then the audience will subconsciously expect a greater degree of “realism” and in reality a little girl can’t beat up fully grown men. They could’ve just given her like some fucking superpowers or something and then explain it that way. That would’ve been more believable in a show like this!
If this show would have follow Clint, I would have gladly pay for my subscription. But Disney offer us new character who did not even deserve to be pirated.
Clint deserves so much better than this bullshit. So mad. Disney really doesn't care about their male heroes.
@@jacobs1834 Pot, meet kettle.
I like Kate better though. You knew it would be about her in first trailer.
@@MichaelAChristian1 wrong no one is watching "Hawkeye" for Kate Bitchup. In fact no one is watching anything woke these days hence all the box office bombs and the failed feminist shit Seth Rogan cooked up "SantaInc".
@@spndusk2362 How is Hawkeye woke so far?? But I don't really care about Hawkeye though. So maybe you are big Hawkeye fan and thought the trailer was saying it was something different. It like buying Mgs2 and getting Raiden I guess. I'd rather have Kate though.
I think everyone over reacting.. Kate ain't Captain Marvel or Rey Skywalker.. She not all powerful or so full of herself and knows absolutely everything there is to know about everything. She's not showing up Clint.. She very respectful and she's always trying to get Clint to train her or teach her something..
Oh, so Captain Marvel is bad but Wonder Woman being just as OP is good?
Fi and csv8 used u3tcvm for driving in this area and I don't want to be a guitar hero or anything like you do too.
I thought the first three episodes of Hawkeye were pretty good. I do like Kate so far. She's *not* a Mary-Sue. Yet.
But I did ideally want that "hard, gritty, violent, Clint Barton" show in the vein of the Bourne movies. Now I'm sad. lol
It's not Netflix marvel, it's MCU
No way it wouldn't be PG-13, it has to be.
And if Kate Bishop isn't a Mary Sue now, she can't become one later. That's not how being a Mary Sue works.
If she's got ability & it's clearly defined how she has it and how much she worked for it, she can't be a Mary Sue however much idiots like Gary want her to be
@@ChildOfTheWilderness I see you have no idea how Mary Sues work. If she suddenly starts having everything work out for her and she's capable of doing things far beyond her capabilities while being praised as the bestest EVAR than she certainly can become a Mary Sue. But whatever dude, you're just here to be a jack wagon and high five yourself.
@@palladiamorsdeus better than everyone else who is here to whine about characters with properly defined abilities & story arcs.
@@ChildOfTheWilderness You must be a Boruto fan.
I do like how grounded it is. I could use some of that bad ass Hawkeye. But the show is not bad.
Can it really be called a bait and switch if everyone sees it coming and aren’t surprised by it at all
I said, "Hawk Eye is just a dead man walking", before the show even started. Prove me wrong , "Lost-your-marbels"
sure, they can still be attempting. no one said it had to be a successful bait-and-switch :P
The biggest problem is Disney keeps inundating us. Nothing to look forward to. Build up anticipation for series or movie. They just keep regurgitating these shows to fast
We needed a gritty show that would've cemented Clint as the MCU's John Wick. Sucks that that ain't happening. Jeremy Renner is great in this, but the writing is awful and they're trying their hardest to ruin Hawkeye.
I don't see them killing off the dog ahead of christmas. You'd need the show to be set in a different season for true grit
The saddest thing is that they're only following what is going on in the comics
What?? I didn't think it was that bad!
This show is based off the Matt Fraction Hawkeye run. It's just sticking to the comics which is never a bad thing
@@christmasgoomba1460 There are some bad comics so I don't know about that. I never read it but Hawkeye is pretty good so far. I knew it was about Kate so I don't know who thought it would be a solo Hawkeye adventure when he was retired in movies.
Not really into the superhero programming anymore, still love my era of comics. However, I do love what you are doing and every episode is engaging and honest. Well done!
yeah, i love being brainwashed
I wouldn’t call it a flop. It’s actually one of the better shows out of the 5 we’ve gotten. I really hate that people treat this show as if it’s woke. It’s not.
Seriously, it's really not. People are saying it's woke cause... kate is a girl? Literally the series never points it out or even mentions it. She's just doing her shit and happens to be a gal, but i guess people are too pressed about it
He just says Flop so he can get clicks. Clickbait
Dear Disney: SAM WILSON IS NOT AND WILL NEVER BE CAPTAIN AMERICA!!! That title belongs to Steve alone.
Speaking of which...at the end of Endgame...why the hell didnt he give the shield to Bucky, his best friend for 90 years, instead of a guy with a wingsuit he met jogging?
I think and I really am just speculating trying to understand this fact. I think it’s because there might actually have been a split in the timeline where when he did go back and lived a life with Peggy he could’ve gave it to Bucky instead there. This would make disneys choice better ig but then the hole in this theory is how Steve came back to the original timeline then. I’m just theorizing here and what likely happened was “OMG guys guess what how about we have captain America BLACK for diversity 😊”.
To be fair on the stock price front, everything has been tanking since last Friday, so its hard to tell what the effect of subscriber news would have been in a "normal" market. Disclosure: I sold all my $DIS after Endgame and will not consider holding again without some major changes. As a fan I hope it tanks to the point they make them.
True.
But that last part is so cringe, I refuse to upvote.
The appreciation that I have in my heart for Gary and his content is pretty huge. I connect with it in the same way that I connected with old friends. I miss having friends like that, where the heck did everybody go? I mean he dropped a UHF clip in this one, I was not expecting to get hit with that today. Thank you Gary.
Is he paying you to say this?
He is the puppet master of the FM, after all.
Why am I not surprised the FNT fan has lost their friends.
@@PikeBishop1 FM?
@@Paraludic FNT?
“Hawkeye” is abysmal. Episode 3, the woke writers were sure to include a female, Native American, deaf, physically handicapped antagonist, portrayed in school with numerous races and a Muslim teacher. And that eclipses any effort put into writing a compelling or interesting story as long as all those boxes are checked.
WHY is Clint even in NYC to see a play that’s inconsistent with his character “remaining under the radar”? Wouldn’t an Avenger at an Avenger play draw attention? It’s set at Christmas but the music feels out of place. Clint is a freaking assassin Avenger and barely makes it through a fight with the female antagonist. The dialogue is terrible.
It’s so bad and depressing.
Bruh, Laura literally says it's for Clint to spend time alone with the kids. Literally in the scene!
@@agenttronster6373 If the actors need to continually explain things, the writing is poor and that takes place "literally in this scene!" (Please note the exclamation point, as that makes me right)
@@slime-e3989 OK, you do have a point. But what should've been the case here?
@@slime-e3989 is the writing poor or did you just not pay attention
Keep in mind Hawkeye lost to Black Widow in the first Avengers movie, and the two fought to a stand still in the Civil War movie. I think the primary intention of Hawkeye struggling with Echo's fight was to show she's in the realm of Black Widow in fighting ability.
This is bullshit. Hawkeye is good. Episode 4 just dropped and it was damn good. I'm sold on the MCU Kate Bishop. She reminds me of The Gilmore Girls, with her stupid optimistic smile, and she hilarious when she can bounce off a straight man like Cliff Hawkeye.
Sometimes it seems like Nerdrotic dislikes anything with women in it just because there are women in it. This isn’t she-mcu. Bishop isn’t a perfect character and is learning from Barton through the show.
It's more like the actor is giving her all and making it work , could you imagine Brie Larson type actress in the roll. Nerdrotic is more dissapointed at the sidelining of Hawkeye in a show quite literally called Hawkeye. His character yes is used as a mentor to Kate but Clint doesn't have the same character development as Tony stark did when he mentored Peter Parker thus less satisfying when he gives up the role of Hawkeye when we the audience never never got to see the full potential of Clint as Hawkeye.
This is the most idiotic defense yet. Congrats
@@cheddar76k Hawkeye was great. Cope.
@@feeWAIVER... I guarantee ur part of the problem. Keep backing bs and mediocrity.
The important thing you're failing to mention is that Kate Bishop BECOMES hawkeye, it's a title, that goes from Clint to Kate, this is effectively the hawkeye show, talking about both their stories while establishing Kate (among other characters) in the MCU
3:50
no
no, that is woke, women can not replace men , especially white straight men.
@@ocularpatdown do you agree or not ?
@@Kay0Bot Hawkeye is also her name in the comics, if you want to blame anyone for that, don't blame the show.
Also, it's not lazy, it's a title that both use, probably to illustrate some stuff in the comics,,, no-one is calling the writers of Miles Morales lazy because he's also called spider-man
Daredevil begins with Matt asking for forgiveness and beating the thugs
Jessica Jones begins with Jessica Jones doing her P.I stuff
whereas Hawkeye begins with the character who is going to replace him
(3rd Episode was better than the first 2)
Meh. Daredevil is just a Nightwing knock off and Watchmen and Doom patrol destroy marvel shows.
Blame black widow for Marvel having these 90 lbs girls betting up 250 lbs special forces troops. I never liked that about any of these films.
It's not just these films. It's been going on in TV shows for quite awhile now as well. Just look at some of the female team members on the original "NCIS". One was explained away because she was a Mossad agent, another was explained because she grew up with brothers. Like that bends the laws of physics.
Hawkeye should be called Mary Sue Bishop, not Hawkeye. This is another bait&switch.
Little “h” Hawkeye really says it all.
The people running these properties are the same ones ruining them.
This is the best marvel Disney show ! Anyone shitting in it is shitting for clicks imo
The duck sound effects while Kate is running is perfectly hilarious. LOL
Did we watch the same show, people like this are living on a different planet, like inclusion doesn't mean wokeness
Guys like Nerdrotic think anything with a woman in it is SJW.
"muh inclusion" 😂 You guys are perfect slaves.

16:44 “we can’t go 5 minutes without subtly or not so subtly emasculating a man on a Disney plus show.”
Dude. Look at the room behind you. Running out of room for your plushies?
It’s not emasculating, it’s just the standard ass background for “UA-camr talking about nerd shit”
It’s a rule that if a UA-camr is going to talk about comic books or Star Wars or whatever they must have 5 tons of toys behind them to make the viewer understand they are a real fan and nerd just like them.
Notice how when they're talking about Hawkeye in a negative way they use Jeremy Renner's photo...even though he's literally just a cameo star in his own show. Same with Loki...Can't have that negative press pointed at the females..lol
Yeah I noticed a lot of people dissing Jeremy and Clint when it was revealed that Hawkeye had the lowest amount of viewership numbers among the D+ MCU shows when Clint didn’t even have major screentime during the first episode. Obviously if the show had opened with high viewership, they’d praise Hailee and Kate. Some double-standard world we live in…
"Literally a cameo" 🤣🤦♂️ he's been in it loads.
I do love it when people are dishonest with themselves just to give themselves something to be mad at.
@@alvin2021 You do realize this is her show right? He's just there to transition her in...like seriously, im assuming if you're coming at me with that weak argument you at least know what the plan is for the show. lol

This man is so triggered by SJW's that he himself is becoming one. My guy called this movie terrible after a couple episodes then goes and calls it great in a livestream once it's done. What is this guys issue
Nope, it ended up even worse and he was right.
I enjoy Hawkeye so far than the Falcon & Winter Soldier. It's getting better with each episode. Hope they keep the momentum up till the end.
Watched the first 2 episodes... and it's fine. Nothing to get your panties in twist about, nothing really to praise, except I do appreciate they gave her a backstory where she worked hard to become skilled, it wasn't just inherent, that she struggles and fails at things, learns and grows. Honestly, what I expect from an actual character at her level. Still on board to see how it progresses.
I very much agree. I was very glad to see that even though she knows how to fight she has no real practical experience and she comes off as clumsy. I think the series does suffer from the same thing as most of the Disney+ MCU series - that once they’re over you don’t really ever need to revisit them again. I think this series will be fine but when people are done with it they’re not gonna go back.
Yeah I disagree with nerd. I’m enjoying this so far. Great car chase
@@ericnierstedt6242 Absolutely. A good time killing show, no real rewatch value.
@@shytguy Outrage gets more views than indifference. He's gotta pander to the outrage to keep his subscribers engaged, I suppose.
Yeah, she just didn't put on a costume of a man who trained for years to be the best there is and have that costume somehow miraculously give her all that hero's powers and abilities. Hawkeye is a low key hero with Clint being a quiet guy who doesn't want to be noticed. Kate wants to be a noticeable hero. I really get early Batman and Robin vibes from the two. If only it wasn't so woke and poorly written and plotted. Still, I think the best of all the shows.
I love Hawkeye... and Kate Bishop , the way she is inspired by Hawkeye... I just loved it. I don't get this video, because the show was called Hawkeye and there have been two Hawkeye's for years now. Hailee Steinfeld is doing a fantastic job as Kate.
Biggest beef I have had is the destruction of all male characters by Disney. My daughters favorite Super Heroes have been Spider-Man and Iron Man. They don't talk about the girl characters at all except maybe Gwen Stacy. Guys want to look up to a hero and women want a hero
She probably looks up to male heroes cause they’re not doing a good job writing female heroes at all. It’s hard to sympathize with a hero with no weakness.
@@good-tn9sr Very good point!
Criticizing Mary Sue’s is totally valid. Kate isn’t a Mary Sue. Kate has flaws. Jesus Christ, you gotta do better Senator.
Absolutely awesome review as the ones done before! Thank you for calling out MCU and Disney for the absolute crap they are making now. My heart is crying for the original Avengers. Introduction of new characters at the expense of the old, established, and loved ones is absolutely pitiful.
You can't just stick to the old character forever, eventually you move on.
No reason tht they couldn't have introduced these new characters but have them fight side by side with the originals, rather than branding the originals obselete -presumably because they aren't female. 👎
@@ShadowSonic2 sure, if you have the attention span of a gerbil and fickle loyalty.
@@Magneticlaw Because then the toxic fans would demand the new characters be killed off so only the old character could remain
as someone who is not a fan of hawkeye in the films, I actually have quite enjoyed this series.
I don’t know man, I’m really loving this series. I think it’s a lot of fun and Clint is being portrayed as a badass and Kate is like able.
It’s really good people cry about anything
I'm in the love with the show and the characters. And I'm the biggest sexist bigot I know.
