- Secret Invasion reviews for the latest Disney+ Marvel MCU show are in and the Director calls them mixed. Generous description of the conversation around Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury, who was utterly overshadowed by Emilia Clarke in the series. But is the director Ali Selim putting himself into the shoes of Nick Fury, is Secret Invasion a real life allegory for more than the main plot? and Is Marvel's Secret Invasion worth watching on Disney+?

Secret Invasion finale reviews caused multiple more interviews with the director to come out, so that even when I was out, I'm sucked back in. With the Marvel actors and the writers on strike, directors are the only ones still allowed out for promotion, but in this case maybe less is more.
Every interview he gave came out with new pieces of information that made the show even worse. Whether it's him not understanding his own MCU show, or proving the most cynical assumptions an understatement. But what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
'Best Day Ever'? Didn't Emelia Clarke say that about GoT when asked about season 8? It's obviously her code-phrase for 'yeah its a piece of sh!t -sorry'. Also as for Selim - he thinks his making the show is a 'dialogue' where he puts it out and doesn't see or listen to what the audience thinks, and then when they respond to it, he still doesn't listen. Yeah... sorry, dude - that's not a dialogue. What a clueless idiot. They go for activists and diversity-hires and this is what we get.
Makes perfect sense Hollywood wants to replace writers with AI apart from the fortune they'd save.
Well consider the woke side of things for a second, AI is about 'gender fluid' as it gets, and it has no gender or political affiliations to consider!😂
You know I was thinking last night and all this mess could have been avoided by one simple scene at the end of Endgame. Have Tony turn into a Skrull after he died. This not only ensures Tony is still alive somewhere, but can be a built in explanation as to why the A team isn't present and we only have the D team now. All the big heroes have been Skrulled and we're left with the low-levels to solve and clean up the mess. This would open the avenue for the Marvels to actually be successful and wouldn't have relegated an awesome storyline to a terrible tv show about Fury mackin on alien dudes. Imagine that moment, we're all crying with the cast as Tony dies, everyone says their goodbyes and slowly he starts transforming and turning green. That woulda been epic. Just my opinion anyway
Disney during the infinity saga - "WOO HOO BABY 7 BILLION DOLLARS YEAH!"
Disney after the infinity saga - "Now to get rid of it"
Son, I have told, to you, it once already: "dour" doesn't rhyme with "sour" and "hour", but with "poor". Ask a Scotsman for verification of this. It is not an English word, but Scottish. Let there not be a next time.
Uphold the Friends of the Gerund!
Disney's business model:
Step 1. Pay billions of dollars for properties that only have value because of their fan bases.
Step 2. Hire people to create content for said IP not based on merit but solely on their politics and their identity.
Step 3. Create content that said fanbase doesn't like.
Step 4. Blame or state you don't care about the fans when the content bombs.
Step 5. ???
Step 6. Profit.
I still can't figure out why Disney is having such a tough time financially. 🤔
Sounds like the new ESPN, the ex world sports leader who cares about everyone but sports fans.
You forgot Step 2.5 Instruct the people you hired in Step 2 not to consult the original IP material.
If there weren't so many normies watching this stuff ALL of these outlets would have tanked years ago.
Typical hog who believes everything on fox News. Disney is in no way struggling finacially
I feel like they have been stuck on '???' for the longest time cuz I think we're all waiting for step 6
They wrote themselves into a corner, by creating a Skrull with practically all the Avengers' powers - why would they need anyone else, now?
For extra fun, they seem to think that "Avenger" is synonymous with "Marvel super hero."
Exactly
“Because you can’t expect women to fix ALL your problems for you” or something…
Well, this was their plan B since Kang is completely out of the picture(not like he was formidable in the first place?). The MCU is in complete shambles
@@crazyralph6386 as in G’iah is now the new Big Bad? Pity they killed off Thanos…
Star Trek Picard; a story with an impotent, depressed old man. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny; a story with an impotent, depressed old man. Nick Fury in Secret Invasion; a story with an impotent, depressed old man.
Such entertainment we are getting from this ''modern creative'' pattern.
Star Wars sequels; a story with an impotent, depressed old man.
@@DCBChump Yeah I thought about Kenobi too after I posted. Han too didn't show much better. At least Luke had a ''dream battle'' before being snuffed out like an old candle. More to the pattern ;)
BANG ON
Clearly lots of self inserts from the male writers/directors/producers there....
But any female lead is strong, independent and don't need no man.
What the show runner is describing isn't a dialogue. It's two entities talking past each other, and shouting into the void. It does explain why a lot of the dialogue in modern storytelling is two people talking past each other.
It's not modern writing, it's modern society. People talk past each other and strawman the other side's points every day. Nobody listens to each other.
"Oh my god, you got me monologuing! I can't believe it!" ~Syndrome
Confirmed that these creatives are literal villains; talking at the audience without wanting a response.
Pretty much
Everything just makes more sense if all the writers and directors of this junk were the villains trying to shove their progressive views down your throat
Possibly a flag for scrapbooking.
I love it when things get worse for Disney
I think rather see things getting for the people who are making trash shows than the company as they say cut of one head two more take it's place
@@SketchNinja-oi9pp In the end, it's the companies that give these people a platform
Knock out one writer, another takes it's place. But destroy the company that lets them create garbage, and the people who don't make garbage will rise
Why?
@@joshuaadams6565 Because they suck at their jobs, and keep making terrible content, and eventually, things will get bad enough where they won't be able to anymore
@@joshuaadams6565 Don’t play dumb!
It's so weird how Disney's whole reasoning for buying Marvel was they were tired of being known as the princess company and needed to expand their male audience, now after endgame they're doing a whole 180 and basically using Marvel to give the finger to that same male audience and wondering why these shows and movies keep failing
😂😂😂
IMO that’s due to the “creatives” that the franchises are handed over to. The executives decide to buy IPs with existing fan bases, to sell stuff to those fans. The writers & directors, however, despise those fans, the source material and the fundamental assumptions & tropes of the genre so they take great satisfaction in crapping on them. Same thing happened in the comics - the writers don’t enjoy reading superhero comics so they turned everything into self-insert slashfic , or yaoi/yuri comics. The executives must be more afraid of HR than they are of the accountants, otherwise these clowns would be fired for destroying formerly-profitable IPs.
They are turning MARVEL in to a "Princess" factory
They are giving us the finger while simultaneously fingering the other gender and basically everyone of colour and in the LGBTQ+-x%
@@Krampusvongrinch the writers hate the fans cause they killed the little kid in their heart to join Holywood.
I am absolutely sick and tired of action packed entertaining storylines being replaced with boring soap opera like drama series. It's absolutely ridiculous how out of touch those writers are with their core audience
Yep Watching the Defenders TV shows convince me that I should stop watching marvel movies after endgame because I can see the sun setting.
Agreed it's disgraceful what they're doing...
Dude that's not even the problem. The story is not boring, it simply just makes no sense whatsoever. Like it was told by a drunken sailor and then written down by a ninth grader then read to you by a toddler. The script does irrevocable harm retroactively across previous movies than any other. I give you one example, G'aia and Gavik turned into skrulls by infusing the DNA of all of the superheroes so they gain their powers. Yet, some of the powers that they display are NON DNA related like the power of the God of Thunder... What you think Asatru "magic" can't tell if someone is not Thor that you can just replicate his DNA and all the powers of the God of Thunder be granted unto you? That's just one, there are countless. And what about the consequences that G'aia is now the strongest in the universe? What will become of the technology now that it seems to be possible to embed superhero power to anyone? Boring is the least of its problem. And we haven't even got to the refugee-alien underlying theme analogy that undermine refugees everywhere.
This was so badly planned and written it's like having an out of body experience. It's bafflingly bad.
Watching these shows and The X-Files or 24 at the same time is really jarring for me 😅
This Secret invasion writer has great power, but no responsibility.
Or functioning brain cells....
@@tonygreenfield7820Especially those...
Preach it, Uncle Ben
The director has nothing to worry about.
NOBODY wants to make threats over Secret Invasion
Unless it’s threats to fire them permanently, and banishing them from ever touching another IP again.
@@brockdavid people dont like secret invasion i felt some choices were weird but i actually overall liked secret invasion whats the hatred coming from
@@inyalgaico1563 I liked She Hulk but that is because I am an antifeminist and She Hulk was the best parody of feminism I have ever seen and to top that off it was written by feminists themselves. I am thinking Secret Invasion is going to be a blast, if you find the right way of seeing it (not at all the way the writers and director intended it to be seen.)
That director has the intellectual capacity of a paperclip. Nobody bothers threatening paperclips. QED.
Mybe the investors? 😅
Samuel l Jackson is wishing a shark would eat him from deep Blue Sea.
I wish one would eat him after his blathering about how Trump broke Reee Larson.
Yeah he messed up motherfucking bad this time...
I feel like he already spent Secret invasion jumping the shark, so now their sick of him.
@@Rar830 nice 👍
Or some muthafcking snakes
The "I don't care" approach is fine for an indie telling a new story in their own world, not when you're burning up a pre-existing IP.
Exactly
It's fine for burning a pre-existing IP, too... because a lot of people are still giving them money
@@lexnight8345 ESG and Blackrock...😒
@@lexnight8345except increasingly they aren't. Which is why Disney and marvel, and much of the comic book industry are in increasingly dire straights.
@@Quandry1 yeah... took them just 20 years :)
🤔The ONLY way Netflix could save The Witcher would be to hand the series to Henry Cavill to Write, Direct and Lead in...👍
The IP has already been ruined.
It’s irreparable
Unless someone buys the IP and completely remakes the story using the Book as Guidelines.
Also, fire any 'woke feminists' or anyone 'woke' from the production team before starting.
Maybe hire the Writers from CD Project Red who worked on the Witcher Game.
@@ShapelessIsle No better yet. Force the current team to work under Cavill doing it the exact way he says to painful degrees of detail.
Yeah let’s triple his workload because we’re unhappy about something pop culture related…
It’s been tainted. It would have to be something so phenomenal and amazing that it erase anything before from the collective conscience. Which will not happen.
"Is it our job to fulfill their expectations?" Yes, yes it is. If you don't fulfill the audience's expectations, they don't watch. This is kind of a "duh" thing.
It's their only job. The job of a job is to fulfill a list of expectations. For a director, he's expected to be able to tell a coherent story and entertain the masses. Since the audience determines that judgment, it's the audiences expectations which have to be met.
It made my head hurt reading that.
In phase 1 Fury was a total badass who had the respect of the avengers despite the fact most of them could pummel him in an instant. Even as far as spiderman far from home mysterio was genuinely afraid of him. Now they reduced him to this 😬
Of course now we know he didn’t earn his position but was propped up by the SKrulls
That was Far From Home, not No Way Home, dumb ass.
I'm surprised the writers and Sam weren't aware of the subtext of affirmative action and an unfair advantage. 😮
@@johnwelch3800xD I'm shocked we didn't had a Skrull say "I HAD TO BE THE ONE TO GATHER THE AVENGERS FOR YOU!"
Far from home*
At this point I'm convinced they're trying to ruin the MCU on purpose. Absolutely baffling behavior.
This is a result of check-box people being given ruling positions. Unfortunately they have no clue what they are doing.
The more I hear about these writers, the more crazy it seems. They make movies and shows, without finishing the story first.
They seem unable to tell stories not based on their own life. and they do not understand the meaning of basic words, like conversation.
It seems, them having no morals, is one of their lesser problems.
Sort of... their moral dysfunction is largely where these problems derive from.
The management at Marvel has become like Star Wars now. At LucasFilm, they assigned the sequel trilogy to 3 different directors that had full creative control. JJ Abrams wrote something very generic in The Force Awakens so the next guy can do whatever he wants. In The Last Jedi, Rian Johnson wrote a conclusive end to the Star Wars universe, destroying all the setup from the previous movie, and making it so some random kid has the force at the end. The 3rd guy quit, so JJ Abrams spent The Rise of Skywalker trying to undo The Last Jedi. You can't have 3 different people write the plot. Secret Invasion just screwed up the MCU for the next guy.
They're ashamed of their life and experiences, so they're not going to draw inspiration from them. These people hate themselves and have this overwhelming need to convince the world that they're virtuous, morally superior beings.
This is the actual consequences of a system where results just haven't mattered for TOO long. A LOT of actors and writers have the current mindset that it actually DOESN'T MATTER if a show or movie is successfull or not, they were secure in that they were going to get another project, another series, another job. Hopefully the strike situation shakes things up and gets the entertainment industry back on track of pleasing the fans.
Quite true indeed! I think this attitude has come around because of the insane amount of shows produced nowadays. Too many to watch them all so each one gets an ever shrinking part of the public attention and becomes less and less successful. Even the actors don't really care anymore.
It might actually be cool if a billionaire came in and said I don't care about the general public I am paying millions of dollars so that I can be entertained. I am almost willing to bet that project would at least break even if not actually set new records for profit in Hollywood.
@@stephanecremont3666 yeah actors dont even have the big picture of where the show is going anyway,its like a 8 to 5 job for them nowdays.
on rare occasions like Witcher they get kicked or they walking out.
I'm no economist, but my conspiracy theory is this had a lot to do with America's decade and a half of zero or near-zero interest rates. Corporations like Disney could borrow billions and only have to worry about paying back those billions, plus maybe $50 or $100 million in interest over FIFTEEN years (something they could easily do, considering ONE hit film like GotG3 made them $250 million in profit in 3 months). That all sounds like a lot to you & I, but for a corporation worth ~$50 billion it was a trivial amount. It's like offering a cardiologist who makes $250k/year a $1,000,000 loan for a house and then saying they would only need to pay the bank $1,100,000 spread out over 30 years. Who would turn down that deal? It's basically free money. Hopefully the rising interest rates will put a stop to it.
@@jeffersonadams8711 You're right, brought to you directly from corrupt, money-hungry politicians who'd rather get a bag from big businesses than do their fucking job of serving the country.
He's not an artist, he's a product maker. This reminds me of Subway calling their workers sandwich artists. 😆
True artists are too busy creating actual art to go around telling everyone they're artists.
Or barrista
I feel sorry for Disney. It's like watching someone you love slowly dying in front of you while claiming "It's alright! I'll just rub some cream on it!"
But not before they went on a meth binge and started insulting their loved ones on the daily for wanting them to overcome their addiction.
i mean, i would feel sorry if in this analogy Disney wasn't also the people who shot their own loved one first.... after being told the gun was loaded.... and they shouldn't point it at people they love.... and for god sakes why did they reload it with hollow points?....
People have been telling Disney exactly how this plan of their ends for years, the fucktards brought Iger back anyway. You get what you fuckin' deserve sometimes is all i can say about Disney at this point.
@@propheinx2250Pretty much
@@a.m.2066Based. 🤣
Except that unfortunately Disney completely brought this on themselves by hiring people whether or not they were even qualified, more interested in filling checkboxes than getting competent writers.
I don't give a damn about my job, but I still show up every day and perform. I still care about the final product because I conduct myself as a professional. This guy's attitude is half the reason why Hollywood is burning
It's possible he's just saying that because of the bad reviews, heh. Because there was an earlier interview in which he said he didn't care about what critics thought, his job was to make something for the audience. Now that the audience doesn't like this, he doesn't care about them either!
@@marychocolatefairyseems like dude is applying the same logic everywhere 😅
"The fans' expectations are too high."
It's like ordering a custom birthday cake. You go to pick it up. Instead of the fancy chocolate gateau you ordered with "Happy birthday, John" written on it in frosting, there is a rice crispy square drenched with maple syrup.
Aghast, you say, "This is supposed to be the custom cake I ordered?! I am not paying for this abomination."
The baker throws a tantrum, shouting, "Your expectations are too high! Why can't you appreciate my art? You must be a bigot! Everything is your fault!"
This is not only entirely based but eerily disturbing that entertainment has devolved to this level.
And you're not even called John
This analogy is incomplete. The rice crispy would be rainbow colored and have a giant BBC dildo flopped on top of it.
And then they don't read the comics before making the series. It's like "Let's make Dune without reading anything by Frank Herbert" or "Let's make Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy without reading anything from Douglas Adams". It makes no sense.
@@EmperorsWrath thank you so much! Entertainment has gone off the rails in spectacular fashion. I just read a comment that reminded us that Disney was producing, for example, the Star Wars trilogy, and despite many people hating them, all those movies made around $1 billion. Same with the live action cartoon remakes they were doing. They started to think they could pump out any garbage and people would pay. It's only since approx 2020 that things have started to go badly for them, and they seem to be genuinely baffled what the problem is.
"I made marvel flavoured dog mess for you and plated it up!... Well!"
"And I don't like it in the slightest."
"You're the problem!!!!"
"Keep telling yourself that. I'm not the one losing money by you doing this."
Eh in this case it's "Not my problem"
I'm not going to lie, I thought until the last episode that Fury being sick and old was just him being the best spy and leading them to think he lost his edge because he couldn't trust anyone and didn't know who was a shapeshifter. Seeing it like that gave it a lot of tension for me specially at the end of the penultimate episode, I got hyped for the final. Then the final hit and I realized all the excitement I felt wasn't because of the writing because the show stopper episode where I was expecting Fury to actually handle things and where I was expecting the budget to be with a massive finish, just fell completely flat. Turned out the story I was making in my head was better than the one they wanted to tell.
Naw strong female girl boss saved the day
What could have potentially redeemed this show is sad befuddled Fury being a Life Model Decoy programmed by the real Fury to distract the main players while he uses the enhanced Widow's veil referenced in one of the episodes to infiltrate Gravik's organisation. The final reveal of Fury being Gravik's second in command, who was responsible for each of their failures would have been such an awesome Fury moment, too bad no-one working at disney marvel has ever read a single comic in their lives. Keep up the good work Disparu!
This paragraph alone had more a interesting premise than what passed for a plot that the hacks at Disney or soy based life forms that have the audacity to refer to themselves as "writers".
That would have been so fucking cool
@redoden: This would have been a brilliant layout.
Unfortunately Marvel only accepts unqualified hack scripts. 🤦♂️
I like this basic premise.
I honestly like that premise. I'd say you should try working as a writer in Hollywood but unfortunately it seems you may have some talent (and possibly a lack of an agenda) so theres zero chance you'd be hired anywhere.
IGN attempts to be honest while protecting their access.
The Cope of the director is insane dude, I just can't stop laughing.
As a director, the right to tell your story comes well after you've had many successful stories of others told first.
This show was what you get when you have a room full of hacks sniffing each others farts and saying how great they smell directed by someone who made a bunch of stuff I've never heard of, never mind watched.
You know... thinking back to when my daughter drew on the wall with the contents of her diaper, She was pretty proud of the results too.
Damn, how do you even get that off the wall? Asking for a friend lol
There seems to be a major disconnect between the production companies who want money, and the creatives who say they don't care about making it.
So they're telling their story? I had no idea they created Nick Fury, or Skrulls, or the Secret Invasion arc.
I watched a video talking about the start of the MCU and it came from a genuine desire to not just bring these characters to life, but also to tell stories people would enjoy. I feel like this franchise would have benefited from having dedicated writing teams and directors along with catalog of important narrative notes to help maintain continuity.
It's not just the writers, it's the leadership at Marvel that sucks. Back then, they had a point to prove. They knew that if they don't make quality content, people won't take them seriously.
Now, ever since Endgame and the Infinity Saga wrapped up, they have become delusional and complacent thinking that the audience will eat up whatever crap they sell. It's the leadership that allows these "creators" to make these kinds of shit.
And now they are at a point, where I think they have started to realise that people don't give a shit about Marvel projects these days, because they have crossed the limit.
Hopefully, they can learn from it and do a course correction.
@@sreenivaskamath4243 That is an aspect of my point. The leadership at Disney and Marvel Studios did not handle the growth of the MCU franchise well. The franchise started with character driven narratives, but the stories started to become more event driven down the line.
I remember the old days of school and seeing those nerds in computer class editing other people's work and calling it their own "character" with their poor edits, poor taste, and basic malice towards characters they edited because they didn't like something about it. Always wondered what happened in their lives. Well, apparently, they went on to work at Hollywood and making shows like this.
First of all, those people now that are involved in production are not "nerds". They are "pretenders". Completely different things. The same goes for otakus. They (Nerds) and otakus actually RESPECT the lore and do not want to put their "message" on it.
All I can think of now is a $500 million _Harry Potter_ reboot featuring Ebony Darkness _yadda yadda whatever_ as the main character.
Sounds like the fanfic authors never learned.
@@meloelebi1996 There are some damn fine fan fic writers out there ... to the point one got hired to write a TV tie in novel in one of my fandoms. and could not read or writer fan fic for three years while under contract. However, there are the Mary Sues and their ilk who never learn to write and did not learn from the comments that they were turning themselves into a joke ... And I think those are the ones that are now somehow ruining Hollywood ... good thing there are independents playing around in other states ...
I wasnt able to finish the series (gladly) since I saw you and nerdrotic destroy the finale. I didnt even watch your or his video but it was all I needed to finally put Marvel to rest. (I was holding out hope Samuel wouldnt allow Nick to be castrated) . So far I have laid many childhood friends to rest...Starwars, Indiana Jones, Disney itself, even Pixar (Toy Story and all) and now finally Marvel. Is this what growing up is supposed to be like.
I guess I should thank Disney for being that H.S girlfriend that rips your heart out and makes you grow up. Growing up sucks. Thanks Disney.
MIB, Jurassic Park, Willow, MCU, LOTR, Wheel of Power and the list goes on.
This is the point to take what used to be good, and make something great with it yourself

@@Rar830now I must weep you compounded too much pain.
Marvel for me died during Gamergate. The comics just were not what they used to be and the MCU without Robert Downey Jr is dead too.
@@chazzitz-wh4ly a part of me was still holding out hope they would bring Tom Cruise as Iron Man Supreme.
So do these directors like Ali Salim, Rian Johnson and Taika Watiti just go through life loving every TV show and movie they see? And if they don’t do they critique it in any way? And how would they like it if their critiques were shunned and poo pooed like this? It’s just interesting to see: rules for me but not for me.
ssshhhh your are employing wrong think... not conducive when you need to go with the program
No, they watch shows and think "I could do this but i'd make it better."
They're unoriginal, unimaginative, arrogant, and completely incompetent.
It's depressing to watch Johnson's first movie again today and daydream about what could have been if his ego hadn't forced his brains out of his head.
When you take a blasé approach and your ego is inflated and you self insert without respecting source material and fans. Karma comes for you. I particularly enjoyed Taikas humbling as he shat on previous Thor movies than his was rated lower 🤣
The Director broke the story from the get go because Fury never promised anything. I'm supposed to believe this story is dealing with natural consequences of Fury's behavior, but we're literally retconning what happened. They even changed dialogue in previous films in the flashbacks to make this work.
This guy makes Uwe Boll look talented.
Ha, that’s a low benchmark. But at least uwe boll movies at least have boobs.
Imagine if a chef at a restaurant had the same attitude as a Disney Hollywood director and youll see just how insane the directors comments are.
Disparu, you subtly made a brilliant point. They only are able to justify their entitlement...only because they are cashing a paycheck
I'll say it's not his responsibility to fulfill my expectations, but it is not my job to pay for their trash either. So when it crashes and burns and they loose mountains of money, they don't get to cry about racist, it sexist or hostile or insert whatever "nonsense phrase" fans who didn't sound any money on their trash!
Disparu, the usefulness you got from the "reptilian ass mind" clip far outweighs the mental trauma from watching Secret Invasion. 😂
Nice job on the editing.
That and the Based economy clip are my favorite.
Editing and throwing in all the clips definitely deserves a 7/10! 👌
I can't wait for "Stupid pill with your breakfast" to start getting more screen time
I like the part where he says he's worried about death threats. I think people (other than Disparu) would have to actually watch the show first.
He's reading minds to come to that conclusion. Apparently, the thinks he's done something deserving of it.
The only death threats he's likely to receive are from his own side for not carrying the message hard enough.
Disparu, taking all the hits so the rest if us don't have to. Honestly though the only reason I know anything about the MCU post End Game is due to creators like Dispari and Nerdrotic. I haven't watched any MCU movies or series since End Game and I know I made the correct decision.
@@rayman17420 Same, except Spiderman: No Way Home (which was decent), though I don't count it as it's a Sony film.
@@lance134679 shit i guess I lied because I have watched all the new Spiderman films (but those are the only ones, I swear, and honestly they were all pretty good but like you said Sony was involved so maybe that's why they weren't dogshit like everything else)
And the worst part is, it’s not going to get any better for Disney.
That’s a good thing.
Let Disney rot.
Don't you mean the best part
That's actually the best part.
3 people already said exactly what I was going to, so I’ll complain about all the radishes I planted being filled with worms because I’m upset about that.
Don't give up, nothing beats homegrown food.
"Ever so slightly less pretentious" - Well, you are British, what's his excuse?
The fact he beats standard level of British pretense is a hell of a feat even for a Disney Director.
Imagine if after the strike they agree to bigger residuals but also to de-siduals forcing writers and directors to pay money when their tv show/movie bombs.
I've always been a fan of the idea of a meritocracy so maybe Hollywood would be a great place to test it out. Make every creative's pay be directly tied to their works profits and if it does really well then they make a shit ton but if it flops they get nothing whatsoever. It's like many sales jobs with a 100% commission pay structure.
Maybe if Hollywood went that route then only writers who are competent and actually writes fir the audience would apply for writing jobs. But even if the current crop of crap-tier writers were delusional enough to stay on they'd either be forced to change careers or die of starvation (either outcome is fine with me)
😅😅😅
This is why contemporary movies are schizophrenically written, excessively expensive, and badly received.
All Hollywood types, from the writers and directors, through the actors, right down to the chick who paints a bit of mud onto the hem of a costume dress, think they are top-notch *Artistes* who deserve top-notch pay. Not for making anything good that earns money, but simply for pursuing their True Artistic Vision.
And seriously, if Hollywood cannot rein them in to reality, then Hollywood might actually be doomed.
I bet Disney will make season 2 and blame the fans for being toxic
5:45 “You can tell the story you want to tell, but if it’s not one the audience wants to hear, I wouldn’t expect to tell one twice.”
That is such a great statement!
That was so bizarre. I got to this comment exactly as he was saying it so he just read it to me. Am I a wizard of some sort?
How did an entire generation of writers come to the conclusion that to write what's important to them they must jettison all of the rules and principles of a character, narrative, and storyline? Writers, since time immemorial, have always used their own concerns and lives when writing. "High Noon" is a classic Western that's about the McCarthy era and what was going on in modern culture and politics at the time (the writer was blacklisted). The writer was limited by the tropes of the genre and, boy, did he and the director create something memorable (and personal). By the glorious grace of the Muses, the greatest creativity and satisfying entertainment happen within strictures, limits, and expectations
New writers, however, appear to be lazy, self-indulgent and obtuse. They don't have a handle on the concept of creativity. If an audience is not grabbed by the throat by your efforts, it is up to you to figure out how to do better. It's not the audience's job to do your work for you. It's common sense that if your work doesn't speak to an audience YOU need to reassess, because snaring the audience is your one and only job. (Although it would be nice if you also add something glorious to the culture with your efforts.)
Short answer? Too much money. The cure? The strike.
Quantity of Eye draw content is more important than quality to streaming companies...
And their demands and time constraints make it impossible to take the time needed to make the story an actual story.
@@LgiovanniFthat's partly the writers fault for accepting and in some cases even helping to push forward these truncated seasons.
@@Quandry1 id say ot was more the streaming compay demanding a spread that they can squeeze a couple more weeks or months subscription from consumers. So much filler it looks like they don't even use editors anymore.
@@LgiovanniF naah they started shortening the seasons 15 years ago. Way before streaming had sway for it.
The director Selim has like 10 titles under his belt. Nothing I've never even heard of, and has been a director for 18 years. That is like half a career. I swear it's like Disney is selling Director contracts to the lowest bidders like a Government contract.
The less popular the director is the less they have to pay him
$1082 is more than I make a month working 40 hours a week in Scotland. Must be nice to live in Hollywood. 😂
Well, in "Logan" you saw a broken old Charles Xavier and it was great, well done, because the story was well written for him. Charles suffers from dementia that causes him to have destructive telepathic seizures, and this is just a great idea for that is really possible for an old man (however powerful his mutant ability might be) to have dementia at such an old age (he plays an 97 year old man there). So, you could have a broken Nick Fury here in the show, but at the same time be STILL the powerful hero if the situation calls for one. But that would have required professional writing skills which Hollywood seems to avoid these times.
Yup, unfortunately after Endgame, Marvel’s direction went south….like REALLY south.
Even Endgame had it’s flaws but still managed to be a decent conclusion for most people. I knew as soon as they started pumping out TV Shows for Disney+ things were gonna get rough. But I didn’t think it would be THIS bad.
Once in college i was assigned an assignment. I turned in a different assignment and the prof got pissed. I just calmly told him that i was telling my story and if he doesn't like it he can suck it. Got suspended from College and then immediately hired by disney.
Obviously his pay packet didn't include any residuals, maybe all these creatives should get their wish and have their whole pay package based solely on residuals and ratings, maybe then the quality of what we're offered will improve
Theres plenty of sales jobs that are 100% commission so if youre not successful you don't eat. So I definately agree with you, let's end the writers strike by paying them more (but only if the project theyre working on makes money and that pay is a % of the profit)
how is it possible that the director of this show doesn't even know what year he was born?!
I’m hard pressed to think of any recent public statement that less self aware and more narcissistic than this guy. A dialogue requires two people. This isn’t a dialogue. This is a therapy session that cost $200M that you just slapped onto Disney Plus and threw duces. 🙄🤦♂️
Secret Invasion was really unexplainably bad. They fundamentally didn’t understand the Nick Fury character or what it means to be a veteran spy.
They have a very superficial understanding of how a spy operates, like planting small cameras in secret places. Sure, spies use gadgets but that’s a very shallow understanding of what spying is. They don’t understand the psychological aspects of espionage.
At several points Nick Fury loses his temper and f*cks off his relationships with people. A veteran spy would never do that. When Talos reveals that there are millions of Skrulls and Nick Fury throws a tantrum about it, and stops talking to Talos, it shows that the show runners don’t even understand that espionage is about gaining and leveraging information. Even if the information was very bad news, a good spy wouldn’t turn on someone who was giving them important information. They can feel a certain way about it, but they wouldn’t lose their sh!t and have a piss party about their emotions.
Don’t creat a spy thriller if you don’t understand what spies do.
Honestly after reading through various comment sections I'm realizing thst if Dinsney just hired a bunch of people who left replies they'd probably be way more successful.
Its just sad that people who are just posting story ideas and genre info off the top of their heads in a YT comments section have more compelling ideas and understand the subject matter better than people who's job it is to do the research and professionally write.
I've honestly always loved to write but never thought I was talented enough to pursue it as anything other than a hobby but after watching the shitshow thats Hollywood for the past 5 to 10 years I'm thinking I've vastly underestimated myself.
"Lower your expectations and enjoy the ride." The road to exellence: others putting up with you.
Probably it was 2 different persons at IGN who wrote those contradictory reviews. One of those cases of the left hand didn't know what the right hand was doing or whatever the expression is.
Thanks for the video!
I believe the saying is "the left hand didn't know that the right was jerking off Disney".
What character is Disney-Marvel gonna destroy next? I wouldn't be surprised if they screwed up the Fantastic Four and Blade the same way they screwed Secret Invasion
Blade will probably be about Blade's daughter taking over the mantle.
I think with the Strikes, we might finally see the end of this. The money is finally drying up, they're out of stuff to throw out to keep them afloat, and by the time they finally are able to get back to business, they might just be out of business
Maybe I'm being overly optimistic...but I think we might just be seeing the end of the line
@@joesmutz9287 It's both sad and exciting. My lazy mind is sad that we won't be able to watch movies anymore. But my productive mind knows that society would be better off with less TV and movies.
fantastic four will be a gay couple and a lesbian couple. Blade will be a transgender albino
It sounds like they were trying to screw over Blade, by trying to insert a female character that would be the bestest evar. The problem (for Marvel, not us) is that, for Blade himself, they'd hired Mahershala Ali, who's gotten a number of big awards and had an expectation that HE would be the star. He was also annoyed that it had minimal action- sounds like Secret Invasion's problem, lots of drama with little action. So they've been reworking the script for awhile now.
If that guy was a CEO, he'd literally be legally culpable for violating his fiduciary responsibility. Ultimately it is on the corporation for hiring someone to both make and market something where they don't care about success, but damn.
Great video; extremely well-said!! 7/10
I remember when that episode of the simpsons with Side Show Bob aired I found that scene with the garden rakes absolutely hilarious as a kid and was laughing my head off lol
That clip will never stop being relevant
@@joesmutz9287 Looked up when it originally aired in the UK 93' damn I feel old lol
This is why I think that salaries for these jobs should be like 60/40 split between residuals and up front pay, respectively. If most or all of their pay was reliant on performance then these jokers wouldn have to choose making between something the people want or starve.
They likely already get residuals. Still got more upfront than what us plebs make. So that wouldn't fix it.
This reminds me of the Rian Johnson approach to Star Wars. "I want to tell my own story in a property i don't care about with no regard for what came before or what will come after and anyone who doesn't like it can kick rocks" is what it amounts to.
I just could only laugh in disbelief when he said that action scenes don’t need any emotion… like, wtf?? Action scenes can, and I think actually should, have heart and soul to them!! What planet is this dude even from??
When you have a story to tell you should be able to tell that story. At the same time when you are dealing with an established IP you have a certain obligation when it comes to staying faithful to the spirit of it. So yes, tell your story but you also have to acknowledge that certain IPs have a fan base and have a right to be vocal when they feel you are not respecting that IP.
They try to reach in and pull out the bit where they get an effort-free fan base and ingrained interest in their product, but start frowning at us when fan expectations stick to it. It's not a pick-and-choose baggage buffet, they either get all of it or none of it, and it's insane that Hollywood has done basically nothing but ride the coattails of other people's work for so many years now and still haven't learned this simple lesson about it.
I'll never not laugh at Emilia Clark with Drax arms, he got me there
You've built more rapport with your audience than all these crap journalists drinking coffee with 20 prefixes while having the humor and sarcasim of the great Jeremy Clarkson. Thank you. Thank you for entertaining us. Thank you for bringing words to what we all were thinking but couldn't articulate about the swamp of ticks known as Hollywood.
The best advice I saw about reviews was someone who said take the best/worst reviews, erase them and focus on the midrange ones. The middle of the road ones tend to be the majority view, and by paying attention to those you gain the highest chance of "doing right" by your audience. Endgame was the end for me as far as Marvel goes, but Guardians 3 I considered the ending to their trilogy , and outside the "wider world" of the MCU. Everything since Endgame has been a dumpster fire, and thanks to Disparu "taking one for the team" I haven't had to suffer thru the stupidity. I hoist my whisky to you lad, thank you for doing the dirty work and enduring this drek.
These people are the ones who fail to color between the lines but think they are special because they can't do a basic task.
Give this Selim some credit - Marvel didn’t want him reading the comic because the director might’ve wanted to work some of the actual Marvel heroes in. Pretty convenient that Thor fucked off to the far side of the galaxy, and Banner left Earth for the 12th dimension or whatever. I mean, even Dr. Strange could’ve been in it. (I’m just naming characters that could’ve potentially been used.) Disney got cheap.
As a writer myself, you occasionally have to take a step back and ask yourself a hard question: "I like how this is origressing, but will anybody else?" I've had to delete or change lots of material that I really liked but knew wouldn't work in the story I was trying to tell. The director here seems to have forgotten that.
That's because they're all writing a story for an audience of 1, themselves. So as long as they get to tell they story they want, screw the audience. They already got their bag so F everyone else.
I cackled at seeing the Rotten Tomato scoring of 7%. It’s pathetic and kinda funny at the same time. 14:39 The sad thing is that 20 or more years ago, Marvel would have _never_ said that. Now they’re bowing down to “The Message” and insulting the fans.
Similar thought.
As a fan, I'm not particularly bothered by the attitude of "if you don't like it, whatever, don't watch" or "this wasnt made for you"
Im "ok, then I won't watch. No skin off my butt"
But if I was the studio's dropping 100, 200, 300 million into these projects I'd be super pissed at that attitude.
If they're too stupid to be, not my problem
11:00 "having lived through the blip" This proves the director is moron. How is being blipped out of existence 'living through the blip'??
I love how, to Trollywood, being pure evil comes in second to a woman not getting credit for her work, even when did nothing positive nor serviceable.
They seem to assume fans only want vapid power fantasies (or use that assumption to deflect criticism.) But most fans only want good products that fit reasonably within the existing lore. That's their expectation and it's not mutually exclusive artistic endeavors.
The worst part is that from what I've observed throughout life, regardless of fan complaints, ultimately most fans are EXTREMELY lenient on lore as long as it's a good product and very basic expectations are met. They might complain but will still give second chances and benefits of a doubt.
You have to screw up near constantly to lose that.
@@meloelebi1996I agree, most fans of a particular IP will let changes, even to major characters and parts of the story, slide as long as the new direction is interesting and entertaining. However every change Disney makes is just bad, mostly makes little sense, and ruins the IP theyre adapting to the point its unrecognizablefrom the og source material.
It's too bad because the MCU started off so strong (IM was incredible and I honestly like the MCU Tony Stark way more than how he's presented in the comics).
Delighted to see another new video from you, Disparu! Yes, this SI fellow is certainly far less than respectful to his audience - and without ANY good reason.
Yes but why does Emilia Clarke super Skrull not just immediately do Captain Marvel powers and light the other guy up? Then slaughter all her other enemies
I keep thinking back to the witcher petition that got 300k signatures but wanted an express action and was ignored by netflix. Is there a petition to tell the boards of all these productions companies that the signers swear to never watch another thing this guy is involved in since he has openly stated we aren't part of his process?
Can you imagine being in a business and not knowing it’s the main goal to please the people that love your product? If people love your product, it creates demand. I literally learned this in business class in MIDDLE SCHOOL
I bet Secret Invasion's showrunner, Kyle Bradstreet (who developed the story and was the head writer), is relieved he has an excuse to not give interviews for this flop! Selim incidentally was not supposed to be the only director; he was originally hired along with Thomas Bezucha (whose credits include The Family Stone). They were supposed to split the eps, but Bezucha left before production- maybe after he saw the scripts, lol. In a The Direct interview, SLJ said him leaving was good because 1 director would give the show more consistency- turned out that didn't happen at all!
_Director can't keep his mouth shut._
Just like Michael Waldron who trashed Dr. Strange and Wanda.
Just like Jeff Loveness who trashed every single character in Antman 3.
This is what GUILT sounds like. It gets defensive.
If something requires large money investment and expected to turn profit, and if your consumer expects to get their money's worth, then it's definitely not art, it's a product.
THE WITCHER SEASON 2 ,
one of my biggest problem with season 2 was that i was looking for character interactions & some good dialog but nobody talked about anything except for some witty small talk. i blame the writers because they had an opportunity for some character development & wasted it. they didn't development CIRI & GERALT relationship in the right way when they had the opportunity. the writers rushed to get to KAER MORHEN when they didn't need to. they should have taken their time to let CIRI & GERALT build a relationship. don't even get me started on the on the fact that they skipped the time when CIRI was a child [ 6 or 8 years old ] & GERALT saved her. it was the first time , they met. how could the writers skip that. the writers completely character assassinated YENNEFER by having her betray CIRI & GERALT. i don't care if she changed her mind & saved her in the end. none of YENNEFER choices or actions make any sense in season 2. there no way that YENNEFER would ever allow any child to get possessed just to get her magic back. she might do something like that to an adult but never a child. i can't understand why YENNEFER would save CAHIR , i can see someone like TRISS not wanting to murder CAHIR but i don't see YENNEFER being bothered about killing some Nilfgaardian she doesn't know or care about. plus i'm shocked that GERALT didn't kill YENNEFER for putting CIRI in so much danger. that's really out of character for him. its really weird that he's so forgiving at the end of season 2. i will be the first to admit i don't like YENNEFER after she left her magic school. i really liked her character when she a hunch back. she interesting & not such a bitch. it seems like instead of trading her womb for her looks , she traded her ability to have kids to be a bitch. i don't have a problem with her being sassy & a slight bitch but her being queen bitch all the time makes it seem like her only character trait. i don't know what GERALT see in her honestly. even in the books & games , they have nothing in common other than CIRI. a child is not enough to make a relationship work. i have no clue why the writers killed ESKEL. they brought in a bunch of new witchers in season 2 but choose to kill ESKEL. instead of killing a new witcher off. that's nonsensical
Seriusly at this point the memes and the quotes are the best things that came out from most of the series or movies for a few years now.
The most incredible part of the article was the part that mentioned that Ms. Marvel had a rating of 98%. How did that beat Hawkeye, let alone Loki??
The whole point of a jester was to keep the king grounded, to have at least one person that will mock his stupid ideas without impunity.
Hollywood should consider hiring comedians to do the same thing so they can know in real time exactly how their stupid ideas are gonna get ripped apart.
Excellent content! Keep up the great work!
I couldn't finish the video. I was too distracted by the teeth.
Everyone who plays video games knows about IGN. We go there for walkthroughs, not for their opinions about anything.
This proves everyone of those writers needs to be fired in Hollywood. And by the sounds of it so should the Directorss because they are out of touch with what matters... ENTERTAINING THE AUDIENCE.
Is it your job to fulfill our expectations? No. It's your job to exceed our expectations.
Ya know, a good director can meet fan expectations AND tell the story they want to tell.
Just saying.
I think rather see things getting for the people who are making trash shows than the company as they say cut of one head two more take it's place if the people who are making the shows to spite the fans things will never change
These hollywood writer screams about AI stealing their job but it's clear that they are the one who accelerating it as they are incapable of writing a good story
Super skrull fight was the marvel equivalent of an 8 year old smashing action figures together
Marvel are nothing but a complete joke these days and it won't be long until they ruin Deadpool and wolverine. They've already said that Scarlett witch and dark Phoenix will be in it and that's just because you can't have two middle aged white men as the stars of the show in this day and age, hence the sheer amount of cameo's flooding the movie. It was always obvious they would insert some annoying females into it just like they do in everything. The M She U isn't slowing down anytime soon!!
I don't hold him accountable that he made something crap when he doesn't care what we think to begin with. I hold the person that hired somebody that doesn't give a crap what fans think accountable. These clowns should be out of a job but some bigger clown keeps throwing money at them. I am going to miss the golden age of Disney but I am also going to enjoy watching them sink. I just wished it would happen sooner before they ruin more Disney classics.
Carriers are supposed to have a service life of 50-70 years. But they act like a technologically marvelous helicarrier is mothballed after a decade of service?
Hollywood directors are ruining superhero films with their arrogance.
How TF are you going to ignore THE source material that fans have grown to love, write your own version without regard to anyone but yourself, and then expect it to be revered or profitable?!
