Why Everyone Hated - Secret Invasion 

Emilia Clarke has no luck with last episodes

I first thought Jonny photoshoped Daenerys with Drax hand for this thumbnail... How wrong was I...

Looking at what they’ve reduced Rhodey to, Terrence Howard seemed to have dodged a bullet.

Didn't captain marvel get her powers from an external object. Why would her powers be in her DNA in the first place?

Does anyone know in which MCU phase they will give Fury his balls back?

16:17 “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself...on Disney+” 😂

Skrull's D.N.A is able to change clothes too... such increddible powers!

Why is Nick Fury more impressive in Captain Marvel when he isn't the main character than he is in Secret Wars when he is the main character?

Her superpower is an ability to grown a deformed arm? That's special!

man, remember the car window gun scene? i miss that nick fury

I was disappointed by the half-assed writing of the show. It could have been a great spy thriller, but instead... 1. They revealed Nick's wife and her true identity from the beginning. Imagine the suspense if they hadn't done that. 2. If the Avengers' DNA never should fall in the wrong hands, why didn't Fury just destroy it as soon as it was collected? Instead, he created a MacGuffin. 3. Sonya had already exposed a skrull by shooting him in the hand, which lead to him partially turn back, also showing his purple blood. All they had to do to convince the president, was HURT Rhodes to reveal his identity. 4. We now have a Superskrull in the MCU that wields the power of all the Avengers AND the children of Thanos. Gi'ah should now be one of the most powerful entities in the MCU.

Also a funny note... when Emilia Clarkes character get shot, she doesnt return to being a skrull instantly like every other one... that kinda spoiled the "surprise" of her not being dead 😑

They gaslighting their audience to think that men are evil. Ironic

Honestly, they should put the whole stopping the alien invasion thing on hold and just send someone to check on Sonia because uhhhh....Ma'am, what kind of place are you living at where gaslighting and murder are considered average male behavior??? Anyways, Jonny's a real one not only for sitting through these for us, but for turning them into actual entertainment.

No wonder the Writers Guild is still on strike. No one in their right mind would agree to give them anything if they put out such garbage.

This whole Secret Invasion thing feels like Marvel realized they shouldn't have made the Skrulls the good guys in Captain Marvel, and wanted to show the Skrulls as a threat like they were in the comics and cartoons but...had to come up with a way to justify evil Skrulls and so we got Fury couldn't keep his promise to them and help a species capable of space travel in finding a new planet! Anyway, thanks for watching this show so we don't have to.

Haven't watched the video yet but I just wanna say I truly defended this series at the beginning because I just knew it would pick up after the second episode, but week after week it just remained mostly boring and then the finale to be so incredibly lackluster just threw me out of the loop completely 😡

I think they finaly reached a level beneath CW

I think they could have saved the series by introducing Life Model Decoy to counter impersonate the skrulls and shows that Fury is always 10 steps ahead

Super Skrull is cool against the Fantastic Four. Not in whatever this is.

So... based on some of the powers they are using... are we to assume that someone got DNA from the Guardians of the Galaxy as well? Like... what? Did they comb over the rubble of the Avengers complex and gather up DNA from everyone present at the final End Game battle? Enough to actually clone them and/or replicate their superhuman abilities? As if the Avengers would've allowed that to happen? SMH.

I feel sad for Marvel. This used to be my happy place. Have a great weekend Jonny ❤

The plastic bag is actually logical. The previous episode established Gravik can regenerate bullet wounds so suffocating him is the only option

For a while, I had the hope that the machine would go boom at the end - and in so doing, spreading like... supercharged gene transforming radiation or whatever - and that this would be the MCU's way of making mutants a thing in the world, which would be a way to introduce X-men into their universe. Would have been kinda cool... But alas...

“Nick fury making out with his gremlin wife” 😂😂😂😂😂 bro

I love how only modern day Hollywood can make a spy thriller with shapeshifters so mind numbing boring and more predictable than my next sentence... Marvel you suck. What you were expecting my sentence to be something funny, meaningful or maybe something that would break your puny mind? No. I'll take something from their book and make it the most anti-climatic thing ever said.

makes me really sad that we will never get an accurate secret invasion adaptation

It's more refreshing watching these reactions than the actual shows

I wouldn't be surprised if they did have Ai write these scripts. There was something soulless about the show.

19:28 I have a theory about why she wins … against a man.

While I didn't think this series was *terrible*, I'd have looked a lot more kindly on it if they hadn't so unceremoniously killed off Maria Hill (a character I really liked) in the first episode. At very least, the finale should have shown Fury visiting her grave to give some closure. That and also the President going psycho at the end was just like... uh, wtf man? Also, am I the only one who thinks that the reason why Cobie Smulders is credited in multiple episodes despite really only appearing in one, is because after she read the script and saw how her character was going to be killed off, she demanded that they pay her extra?

See thumbnail: Yeah, I just can’t fathom to how stupid Emilia Clarke looked in the finale. I swear, watching the scene where her bicep grows, gave off MuscleBob BuffPants vibes. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if behind the scenes, she tried showing the fake muscles off to people, but when she has to genuinely pick up something, she struggles, just like SpongeBob. Therefore, she decided to blow them to be bigger to try and help. But that causes them to blow up, therefore the studio resorted the CGI-ing the whole thing instead.

I haven't actually seen any of Secret Invasion but I think the episodes 'The Zygon Invasion' and 'The Zygon Inversion' did this concept way better in 2 episodes!

Nah, She-hulk is still the most powerful and effective at ruining MCU. She can insult Feige and change the world. The idea that they choose to release that, all of them deserve to be replaced by AI

This series cost $212 million...

Daenerys is like Capt. Marvel now; she has so much undefined power that she can basically do anything. They remind me of playing with my dickhead brother when we were tiny. If I was winning a game, he would suddenly invent some rule I'd never heard of. To make himself win. I'm sorry but there is zero tension or suspense in watching someone whose only concern is which law of physics they want to break next. Give me a character who can only do SO much and has to work with what she's got.

Thanks Jonny! Now I don’t have to watch this!

John Boyega knew from the start what DisneyPlus was and he was gonna let it happen to him. "“I ain't getting no Disney Plus!” - John Boyega

it cant be Civil War when Rhodey was abducted because that would mean Gravik is an idiot for completely handing over the vial to Fury before making a copy for himself. I think it makes more sense after Falcon & the Winter Soldier because Rhodey is wearing the leg braces in it only underneath his pants, but Raava isnt wearing them at all in Secret Invasion and no one is saying anything. So its assumed that Rhodey got a full recovery now no need for leg braces. For timeline reference: End of Endgame: Oct 2023 Falcon & the Winter Soldier: April 2024 Wakanda Forever: 2025 (Im stating this because this is the first time President Ritson is mentioned as he was sworn in 2025 which means he won the 2024 election) Secret Invasion: Nov 2026 (we know this because Gravik bombed the Russians on Union Day which is a Nov 4th holiday in Russia, and in ep 6, they mention President Ritson being sworn in 'last year') So this means Rhodey could have been abducted post April 2024 and has been in captivity at New Skrullos nuclear power plant bunker for over 2 years; and he got abducted, during the operation he was receiving to get 100% full leg recovery back. Which is why as soon as he's freed, the first thing he does is try to walk. He thinks he can walk because he thinks his operation went successful. But he either never completed the operation because he was nabbed, or he did and he was nabbed in recovery while sedated, and his legs are numb from + 2 years of atrophy. Making it Civil War just introduces plot holes and more bad writing retcons - BUT....Marvel is just that stupid to do it.

I'm stealing that clip where you say "shenanigans" and there's nothing you can do about it.

"He says facetiously in a foreshadowing manner" . Maaaan that got me HAHAHAHAHAHA

That first clip... i had to pause the video and just put my head in my hand and just sigh.. i have no words. Do writers have ANYTHING ELSE in their tiny little pea brains besides hating men????

Someone said "If everyone is super, no-one is." Happening right here. I completely left the MCU. Not worth my time anymore. But I love watching your breakdowns. They are more amusing than the current MCU garbage.

This show was written by a human person that thinks they should be paid more 😂

Man, that actually would be interesting. Imagine if a studio said they were going to produce a TV that was entirely written by A.I.

Clearly, SLJ knew exactly how much this series blows, and how badly it will be rejected by fans - hence lashing out like a lunatic in advance!

I love how it’s never discussed where/what Fury has been doing in space on the SWORD base. They act like he’s been living in a dumpster after the blip.

It cost $212 million to make this rubbish. GG Disney.

20:08 - omg I can't stop laughing! Tears, I am crying omggggggggg

Always love your videos Jonny. Thanks for saving me time in not watching this crappy show! More entertaining watching you by far 😂 By the way her arm reminds me of Quagmire when he discovered porn 💪

Since Endgame, Kevin Fiege has clearly lost his game. This is another dud

If only they'd followed the comics, revealing that all the awful superheroes from the last few years were just Skrulls, then we could have reset the whole Phase. No more She Hulk, no more Marvels, Wanda can be an actual hero for once, Skrulls everywhere!

11:22 At least, Captain Marvel is no longer the most powerful being in the Multiverse… 😂

What is the music at 4:12, I've been hearing that in vids since forever, but can't find the song listed anywhere?

9:57 did she just fall over bc of some headlights?

Amelia Clarke's arm... looks like she copied Drax... has Amelia Clarke met Drax?

If I remember correctly in the comics there was one super skrull and he had the powers of the Fantastic Four. In the FF comics there were also female skrulls that were actually really attractive, nothing like the lizard lady Fury is smooching with.

Dogs can lie. I had a poodle who once on a walk suddenly started to jump on 3 legs, but after I didn't buy her act she continued to walk normally (she was a lap dog, and wanted me to carry her). She also once fooled my other 2 dogs by barking towards the front door in a way she would if someone was there, causing the other two to leave the living room, and she then stole their treats.

I LEGIT thought that screen shots from this show were memes! Uhggg bless your heart for enduring this crap!

22:09 - hearing-impaired lipreader here, to help you out! What he actually said was "If I had another hundred like you, I could take on the universe."

The crayon piece was peak comedy, thank you!

To be fair, as awful as it is, Olivia Coleman was given a script, saw it for what it was and ran with it. She obviously didn't care but delivered her lines professionally which she always does. None of it made sense but she did what she was paid to do.

"...dare I say..." Me: Shenanigans. "...shenanigans." Me: Ayyyy. The second this was announced and we knew it was supposed to be a spy thriller, anyone paying even passing attention to Marvel knew they didn't have the writing talent on staff to make anything remotely as deep and involved as what some people wanted/hoped for. I hoped it would be good as I'm ready for the tide of trash to change but i knew it would be more boring shallow nothingness that ends in CGI nothingness, having contributed nothing positive to the lore of the universe or characters. Some other parallel dimension got an MCU and DCU that did the comic stories justice, gave them space to grow and fester where appropriate, and revolutionized comic cinema. Meanwhile, our dimension got a good start with Iron Man then a little stumble to The Avengers and Endgame, and then drove right off the quality cliff.

Why did she have Drax's arm? Drax wasn't an Avenger. Neither was The Abomination. If it's Avenger's DNA none of that makes any sense.

Oh yeah that intro was long Asf. I remember looking away at my phone when they pop up and I swear it felt like minutes flew by. I look up, opening is still playing

13:26 The Super Skrull is a character from a the comics. He has the powers of all the Fantastic Four. I forget how he got them and don't know why there is only one of him.

0:25 nice for them to borrow few clips from 2009 ps3 game Prototype, cool that someone still remembers that hidden gem

In my opinion the story line was ‘fair to middling.’ The CGI for the Skrulls however, was terrible. Why would you CGI just one arm and not the full body, other than for low budget reasoning? It looked bad and made the story weaker than it actually was. The visual spectacle of the MCU characters is a major aspect of these films that should not be minimized or ignored.

They should have implemented a real world illuminati conspiracy type vibe to this story. Showing how Skrulls have implemented themselves in numerous massive parts of human history over the decades, and slowly moved agendas in their favour.

The adverts looked terribly boring for it. Samuel L. playing Cuck Fury not a good look.

Another excellent video, Mr Law. Loved the copeium gag and the 'But I'll never tell.' Very funny.

I just finished the series. Earlier I was thinking I would come on here to defend the show as not great but not terrible. But the last two episodes really turned an okay but overall disappointing series into a terrible one. The first disappointment was that it could have been a spy thriller but it really was not. Everything was shown or very predictable. Well except the really bad was not that predictable. But they could have made a series in which the viewer was on the edge of her seat. Is he or she a Skrull or not? what is really going on? But they did not. The bad guys were the bad guys. They doubled down on the Captain Marvel and girl power. I have no problem and actually want women to lay large role in the MCU. But the MCU is ridiculous. The last two episodes here really doubled down on the women are the best motif. IT was not just he Avengers but CAROL DANVERS and the avengers. The speech that Nick Fury is nothing without his mother and wife. And I could go on. It is not completely one statement or even action. It is the cumulative effect. After awhile it is just nauseating. Also why did the main bad guy leave who he thought was Nick Fury in the transformation thing? I know he though he was human but that seemed pretty stupid for a guy who had made supposedly great moves before. And then the guy was so easily killed off. They both had the powers but he was so bad at them. No huge fight. Just meh. Finally the Super Skrull in the comics has the powers of the FAntastic 4. I know they are not in the MCU yet. But why give the Super Skrull every super hero's power? Why not some or some kind of build up? No it was all now. Just stupid.

I thought that 6:31 was a reference to the awkward flirting in Jupiter Ascending ^^'

2:15 This does seem likely, huh! But rather than an experiment to see how quickly we fall off the MCU, it would be to see how far they could go and get away with AI writing before people quit.

Was it not Captain Marvel who had promised a new planet to the Skrulls? And practically, all the Avengers, especially Captain Marvel, know a very nice and habitable planet, they went there to kill Thanos in End Game. Why they removed her accountability over this mess? AI intro is the smartest thing over this mess, it implies something that pretends to be a human taking control.

Thanks Law, good to see you again

New sub here, great show bro 💪🏻🇺🇸

Dogs lie. I used to have a dog that if they did something bad they would try to blame it on other stuff. That is a lie.

Loved the commentary! I think what the guy said in that one scene is, "If I had another hundred like you I could take on the Universe." :)

Hey johnny where do you get your nintendo hoodies from?

If given time, thought, and talent, this could have been a great show 😂

how come you dont have at least 100k subscribers??? your content is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Secret Invasion is so uninteresting, I can't even bothered to watch you tear it to shreds. It didn't break me so hard it broke me.

That drax arm is so hilarious because to someone who didn’t watch the show, you could assume it was bad photoshop or maybe even some weird ass AI drawing. But no lol. No

I agree with everything you've said, it's a lazy, goofy mess. I think the one thing that makes sense is the super power absorption. Skrulls are naturally adaptive and it's pulled from the comics source material.

honestly when i first saw the picture of emilya with that monstrosity arm i thought it was edited but now i just lost all hope regarding the future of the MCU for me the MCU ended with endgame and no one will ever convince me of the opposite

why the hell did they do this story without introducing the Fantastic 4 first 🤦🏾‍♂ Super Skrulls without Fantastic 4 powers makes no sense

Lol she became like those generic isekai op protagonist 😂😂😂

The the bullet thing you don’t shot more if the body is unconscious you check a pulse to see if there alive like Joel said you make every shot count

Thanks!

Why didn't the skrulls develop super skrull tech a long time ago during their war?

watched the first episode and half of the second and just couldn’t continue. it was just depressing man. usually when i watch a series like this i’m so excited and watch the first episode as soon as i can, i had to watch the first episode over 2 days i a go bored lol.

Where'd you get your Twilight Princess hoodie? 😍

I would say that they should have made colonel Ross (Rhodey) act more like himself so that Nick wouldn't know if he was a scroll or not. So in the end they would have a hard time shooting him cause they don't really know. So at the end some one cuts him to see if he bleeds green. But the only reason why they didn't do it sooner is because Ross had a gun on the women's head. So they cant cut him or shoot him cause he has a gun to the womens head so if a shot gose off he would automatically shoot cause of the reflection of adrenaline would pump throu him making it so he reaction to the gunshot triggers his finger to shoot. & Then going to the scrolls fighting. they should have had it where Gravik was more experienced in fighting where every time she tried to kill him he would use a power that was countering the ones she used on him. Then in the middle of the fight she ends up getting hit really hard & she uses that to fly away from him as far as she can until he isn't able to see her any more. & as she is hidden she splits her body into 2 parts where one of her bodies flies back into the fight moving them away from her 2nd body. & Her 2nd body ends up splitting up into 5 different bodies. As the 1st body ends up getting killed as that was G' iah's plan to catch Gravik off guard. Then 3 out of 5 of her bodies turns into a Thanos or halk like being. Then they end up holding Gravik down turning themselves into a bomb while her 4th body comes out & shape shift into a being that has 4 or 6 arms & blast all of them away with all projectal type powers until Gravik is fully disintegrated. & To make sure every atom of Gravik is gone the 3 bodies with the 4th self detonate & explodes. As her 5th body looks from a distance to make sure theirs isn't any piece regrowing or lingering around waiting to fully grow back. As if it was a piece of him it would self regenerate as fast as it could cause it needs to be whole again. So if there was a piece of him it won't lay in one spot for a few hours or years cause it needs to grow back right away after being taken apart from it's main body. & Blood don't grow a body. Only skin, bones, muscle, & organs can grow back into a body.

Phase 4, the live action anime nobody wanted.

drawing with a lamp pretending it was a crayon was peak Jonny... lol

19:15 she won because they been trying to “prove” to us that women are better than men. Like of course she would win, but they should have made the fight better by having her be exhausted or beaten up by him and have him be more smarter and more ruthless cus that’s what he’s been portrayed throughout this show. Seriously that’s what Disney has been trying for the past few years to show the women can over power men easily or without too much trouble. There’s nothing wrong with women winning over men at times, but u have to make us believe they can truly do it by being more realistic about it instead of making the men stupid or seem like they’re all powerful and smart and than out of nowhere make them dumb just so the woman can win easily.

Peace maker was better secret invasion than Marvel secret invasion

ST DS9 did this plot way better with the changling threat 2 Earth... 25 years ago...

I loved the 1st episode review. It was funny in its og vid and it’s still hilarious this time around.😂😂
