Why did 'Secret Invasion' suck (by ScreenCrush) - eviltoast

Main points:

  • the premise of the show came out of nowhere, Scrulls were set up as the good guys in Captain Marvel
  • the small rooms and few characters reduced the perceived gravity of the situation
  • Giah’s dilemma between her father and Graviks revolution was skipped over
  • there was no ‘secret’ to the show, the viewers were omnipotent omniscient; the plot was rushed and everything that could have been an exciting reveal has been wasted
  • we learn nothing about the president, his actions make no sense

    I watched the whole thing and… it’s just not good. After each episode I was just going “Well… Maybe? That could lead to something interesting.” but it doesn’t. There are a few “shocking” moments in the show and each time it either goes nowhere or it doesn’t make sense.
