    Sometimes it’s just nicer to ask other people and have the human interaction, whether through the web or not, than the robotic inhumanity of Google etc. Have some blummin empathy

    I'll probably watch this at some point, but nothing here made me feel 'need to watch'. I suppose it's because I'm only familiar with She Hulk from that one old Hulk cartoon from the 70's or 80's.
    That, and the overall vibe of what I'm seeing just doesn't appeal to me.

    She's been a pretty impressive character in the comics, in a way that hasn't really been captured well in her animated appearances that I know of. In the John Byrne series, she was Deadpool decades before Deadpool was, running roughshod over the fourth wall and parodying comics tropes left and right. The more recent Dan Slott and Charles Soule runs did good stuff with Jen's work as a lawyer, while maintaining the humor of the character in a less fourth-wall-breaking way.

    Gods, I hope so!! Would make up for the loss of Agent Carter. Hopefully Feige and company have seen how well Peggy's return has been taken and clearly how much people are clamoring for more of her.

    Not that anyones counting but this would be Haley Atwells third series that she’s helming.

    Shes going to give Summer Glau a run for her money

    If it's the same version of Captain Carter we saw in What If...?, they'd have to do the same to Atwell that they're doing to Maslany in She-Hulk, digitally boosting her height and muscularity. Maybe they could do a team-up special -- Captain Carter and She-Hulk: Tales of the Uncanny Valley.

    Feige dropped a bomb about the upcoming six-part Secret Invasion yesterday...

    ... it takes place just after the Snap.

    Which means either Samuel and Cobie aren't playing who they look like they're playing... or we didn't see what we thought we saw at the end of Infinity War.

    Heck, "Fury" in FFH turning out to be Talos reminded me of that old theory about the Captain Marvel movie before it came out.

    That the Nick Fury in the past would get killed in a twist, and as a way of making amends Talos would take Fury's form and life and it would be revealed that the Fury we've seen all along was really Talos in disguise.

    Well, that's unexpected development but a very welcomed one!

    I wondered after Endgame if we would ever see any productions set during that period and I remember most people saying there's no way that would happen. Glad to see that's going to finally happen.

    I'm now very curious to see the hows and whats about this series!

    New Rockstars posted their breakdown of the She-Hulk trailer, and I think from that we may have cracked the mystery of both Bruce's arm injury and how Jen becomes She-Hulk in the first place.

    - Bruce was given a power inhibiting gauntlet for his other arm by Wong (that's what he's wearing in Shang-Chi) because he has to temporarily de-Hulk for his damaged arm to properly heal.
    - [My theory, going off what's said in the video above] Jen gets the blood transfusion from Bruce before he blasted himself with gamma radiation and first became the Hulk, but after he had injected himself with the supersoldier serum derivative. Between the two Snaps - a massive blast of 'mostly gamma' radiation across the world - Jen's powers are unknowingly activated. Jen's already pretty high-strung, but it takes the near-death trauma of the van wreck seen in the trailer to trigger her first transformation.

    Disney is a top notched company and their track record in selling a product is by far best I'd ever seen. I don't ever remember this company advertising rushed and unfinished work; what I'd seen from them has always been polished. This has to be the finished product... if there's any correction which needs to be made there would be a delay. Since the date is set its safe to say this is what will be seen. YIIKES!!!

    Surprised there hasn't been a supernatural western titled Uncanny Valley by now. Jonah Hex 2: Uncanny Valley

    That said, I'm surprisingly unbothered by what we've seen so far FX wise.

    OK, that is very unexpected. I wonder if this means we'll be getting goods Skrulls vs bad Skrulls then? Or are the going to be bad guys?
    I'm pretty sure we've gotten Marvel trailers with unfinished effects before. They've got three months, and a lot of shows and movies keep working on things right up until release date, so there's plenty of time for them clean things up before the first episode is released.

    I was hoping they would recast Jessica Jones so that she was the same age as Peter so they could do that scene from the comics but I suppose they can’t know considering No Way Home.

    With all the comic accurate costumes lately- Spidey at the end of NWH, Hawkeye & Kate Bishop, GotG set pics for v3, Scarlet Witch, those Loki's, Falcon as Cap, Moon Knight, etc etc...
    -Can they please just put Luke Cage in a yellow T-shirt?

    I know he was at some point in a Netflix show, but it wasn't very often was it? I never saw his show tbf. Genuine question- throughtout all his appeareances in Luke Cage, Jessica Jones and The Defenders, how many times did Colter actually wear a yellow t-shirt?

    I was under the impression it's hardly ever, but I could be wrong. As I say I didn't see it
