    Re: Disney+

    I really like the different tone each of the Marvel shows have had:
    • WandaVision was based in the family sitcom with some variation at the very end, but its heart was the family sitcom.
    • Falcon and the Winter Soldier was primarily a straight up action movie/drama.
    • Loki is going for the mystery/suspense thriller vibe.

    They've each fit their genres perfectly, and I am really enjoying this Loki series so far. Love how this (like the Mandalorian and all the other intended spin off shows) can explore the smaller stuff and develop the stories, characters, and universe a bit slower than a 2-2.5 hour movie. Yes, there are only a handful of episodes, but at 50ish minutes each, put them together and you get a single 6-7 hour movie

      I've disliked very few episodes of the MCU shows, this one is as close as I get to not liking it. Tom's banter makes it a fun watch, but what feels like a filler episode in a 6 episode season is so blah.

      Some theories:

          I know that a lot of people are about plot, plot, plot, plot, plot, but even with a series that is short Marvel is never going to do that, and I personally am very glad, because I'm a person who cares more about character exploration and development in shows than A to B to C stories, that what movies are for.

            I just wish I could’ve gotten a movie of Sam and Carl and that story instead of anything to do with Bucky and the Flag Smashers. I like the focus of the movies, the shows aren’t doing what those did or even what Daredevil did for me.

              Most of episode felt like filler, but we found out some big pieces of news in it.

              So far, Wandavision is the one with the best plot twists and villain reveal.

              Too early to judge since all of these series feel like you need to get to the end to fully judge if everything made sense, but I'd say Loki has been the least interesting of the 3 so far.

                  Yeah, checked that this past weekend. Threw it on as the one most anticipating it, and my wife and son were the ones most engrossed.

                  When the mom gets riled up about not leaving the depths, I don’t know why that felt like the best depiction of parent anger/rule-making, the way she got bigger and the background turned to redder colors. That stuck out to me. Haha

                  I don’t suspect it’ll end up in the top Pixar films but it was a good release that I was happy to stream without needing Premier access. It feels like films like that, probably smaller scale and smaller stakes than a usual Pixar offering, is what Disney+ is for. A medium between the big screen and a short.

                    Honestly my wife and kids started watching this today and it's pretty well done. Not fully watching it but keep getting caught up as I'm doing stuff around the house. Not gonna lie I'm enjoying it way more then I thought I would.

                        I posted about it in the movies watched thread.

                        It’s more for children, but it was a fun watch.

                          This week's Loki has a post-credit scene.

                          Good episode.

                                This was a great episode of Loki.

                                I guess it was obvious after the revelation in episode 3, but I only started piecing things together to start episode 4, but they confirmed it almost right after I suspected that was the truth.

                                As for everything else
