I'm sure Captain Carter is an established thing, but she should have been called Captain Britannia.

Quote HistoryMarvel movies have made over $30 BILLION at the box office. Then there's the billions they've made from merchandise. The billions they've made from DVD sales, digital sales, etc. It is crazy to think about Stan Lee dying with a net worth of only about $25M. That's probably about 0.06%. |

Liked the animation style but there was no character development so you didn’t care about them. Not the best one to start the series with. |

Even in the first Captain America movie when Steve was first injected with the Syrum he had an adjustment period. He tried to get the Hydra assassin but after that he really had to prove himself. Even a brief montage showing Carter doing a bit of training would have helped sell the idea better. She goes from getting the Syrum to flipping the bird to the white man to kicking ass in what, 3 minutes? |

They have an interesting task, they can borrow from the existing milieu but they still have to extend it intelligently to the branched timeline. Which still bugs me, they never referenced the TVA in this, that’s a huge gap to me. They just finished the Loki series which directly leads to the MCU but ignore a huge plot thread while not referring to the maintainers of that thread. |

Maybe the TVA isn't mentioned in the What If? stories because they happen after "he who remains" is no longer in power. He who remains was killed at the end of time. So his version of the TVA is no longer out there controlling his vision. So if we look at time as a line, then the aftershocks of that travel backwards allowing the multiverse to be born (or born again you will this has all happened before and will all happen again if I borrow a line for BSG). The TVA we saw in Loki can't control it. |

I don't mind Sam being in the suit or carrying the shield. What bugs me is that he's has NO POWERS. He's not s super soldier. There are enemies out there he just can't hang with. Imagine Sam going up against Thanos. #InstantDeath.
They won't give him the serum b/c of the Walker storyline. But sooner or later, Sam is going to have to power up. Either through serum or tech. |

Any time they interfere, the reset charge makes it like they were never there. No one knows they interfered, except variants. Right, think about it though: when the Watcher says “this is where the timeline diverges” and Steve Rogers gets injured & Peggy makes her decision to jump into the Super Soldier Enlargimator (no idea what that device was called), that’s the moment the TVA would have shown up and pruned the timeline. Instead we get an episode detailing what would happen. I’m all for the “What If…” show, I loved the few comics I read, but they should have added just a brief phrase, almost like a Rod Serling like monologue where the Watcher says “this is where the TVA would prune the timeline, but What If… they didn’t?” And it fixes this concern. |

BTW I noticed the open gives a nod to the timeline branching in a roundabout way so I’ll kinda/sorta retract that criticism. Wouldn’t have minded it a bit more prominent though.
I’d LOVE it if - as time more shows go on - the Watcher ended up having to intervene on occasion because the timelines are getting progressively crazier. |

This most recent episode was the first premise to at least mildly spark my interest so I gave it a try. I found it to be fairly entertaining.
Though Widow kicking the shit out of a dozen or so male Shield agents in the back of a truck with her bare hands was pretty eye-roll-inducing and some of the Coulson stuff was pretty cringe, IMO. |

The murder mystery angle was fun, although as pointed out, easy to figure out who the killer was.
The Coulson man-crush stuff on Thor was cringe and way out of character for him. |

The story could have been told the same way had Thor not magically have already been in the computer files for the Avengers initiative. But, also doesn't explain why Hank Pym would have targeted Thor. But. No dead Thor, no vengeful Loki, and they clearly chose that specific week to spread across all those movies.

Seems inconsistent with the Thor movie, as they (SHIELD) had no idea who he was. Then again, this now marks the second pre-Winter Soldier movie where SHIELD's computers get broadly hacked and nobody seems to find the whole Hydra conspiracy brewing. Here's an idea for a "what if." What if Tony Stark, after gaining access to the whole of SHIELD's servers, uncovered the conspiracy a few years earlier? |
