REVIEW: Ms. Marvel – Season 1, Episode 5 “Time and Again”

AlexGherzo | Jul 7, 2022 | 2

Okay, I think we can call it: Ms. Marvel sucks. I tried to go with it, to enjoy the good elements and hope they were leading somewhere, but “Time and Again” irrevocably ruins any chance of a decent payoff. Half of it is boring, and the other half is an anticlimactic end to the season’s &hellip...

Salon Cries Fandom Menace

Jed | Hollywood Scholar | Jul 2, 2022 | 0

The nonexistent creature that haunts the Access Media’s nightmares has long fueled their delusions. This time, it drove them to put out another slanderous hit piece against everyone they label the Fandom Menace and Gamergate. The Fandom Menace is no more real or tangible than any other fanciful cr...

A slow burn isn’t always a good thing, as Ms. Marvel has demonstrated in its first two episodes. The premiere, “Generation Why,” functioned mostly as an introduction to the characters but had almost no plot. Episode 2, “Crushed,” follows suit, with more character-building – the effective...

AlexGherzo | Jun 8, 2022 | 0

Ms. Marvel, the next in the assembly line of Marvel TV shows to hit the Disney+ shelf, released its first episode, titled “Generation Why,” today, and it’s… okay. It isn’t awful, and it’s certainly better than some of the train wrecks that preceded it (so far), but it’s trying way too ...
