Very well, and because you only saw the first episode and nothing else you don't have the merit to call the series "the worst superhero show ever made" as you often do - you need to see the full season to make such judgement.Very well, and because you only saw the first episode and nothing else you don't have the merit to call the series "the worst superhero show ever made" as you often do - you need to see the full season to make such judgement. No, I don't. Watching 1 full episode is enough to judge a TV show. I've tried to explain this to you MCU fans many times before, but you're slow at getting things. MCU is dumb to try to connect the TV shows with the movies because TV and movies are 2 different mediums. When viewers go to watch a movie, even if the movie starts off really slow and boring, they'll probably stay to see the entire movie because it's just 2 hours or so. But if a TV show starts off really slow and boring, viewers aren't going to spend 13 hours (for a short series) or 22 hours (for a full series) watching the entire season. So a TV show has to get viewers interested with the pilot episode. Moreover, when TV shows are pitched to network executives, network executives will watch the pilot episode and make a decision whether or not to pick up the TV show based on what they see in the pilot episode. Network executives don't watch an entire season to make their decision. Similarly, when Emmy voters vote for the best TV shows, they don't watch the entire season of all the nominated shows. They only watch 1 episode of each nominated show and make their decision based on 1 episode. So it's entirely fair to judge a TV show by its pilot episode only. And Jessica Jones' pilot episode was really boring and crappy so I stopped watching the rest of the series. And it's entirely fair and valid for me to call Jessica Jones the worst superhero TV show ever based on its pilot episode, because that's how TV shows are judged, by network executives as well as Emmy voters. Never Say Never Again was not produced by Eon Productions and isn't considered part of continuity with the James Bond franchise as a whole, complicated filming rights to the novel Thunderball got it up and running and with Sean Connery back as 007 it was hard to say no to it given how he was still the most popular Bond portrayer. The movie didn't do bad critically, however it made quite a bit less than Octopussy, the legitimate Bond sequel, earlier that year. It was an ironic turn of events, as people thought NSNA would make more because of Connery's involvement, but that was simply not the case. Nevertheless, it's still the same scenario you claimed would confuse viewers about DC. 2 movies released just months apart about the same character but played by 2 different actors. And just as general movie audiences don't make a distinction between Marvel movies produced by Fox vs MCU, they don't make a distinction between James Bond movies produced by 2 different production companies. No, watching one episode, the first one especially, is NOT enough to judge an entire series. You cannot watch the first episodes of The Wire, Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, American Gods, Hannibal, or Westworld and make final judgement then and there. To properly judge the series as a whole you do need to watch them in their entirety as they intend to tell season long to series long story arcs. It's like reading a book but only stopping on page one. Most scholars of the medium of TV and professional critics of the medium would agree that you cannot judge a whole show by just its first episode is not a good and healthy way to critique a program unless the episode itself is part of an anthology series like The Twilight Zone where its entire arc is told in one show. No, it is not the same scenario. Rights to adapt Fleming's novel were complicated and thus allowed another studio to produce a version of their own with Connery back in the role. The Joker stand-alone movie and the rest of the DCEU is produced all by Warner Bros. so its a pointless and confusing business venture. You also forgot to note that Never Say Never Again did NOT make as much as the in-continuity Octopussy of that same year. People these days are aware what is and what isn't MCU, I cannot for the life of me recall anybody asking where were The Avengers in Logan on any website I've ever visited talking about it. |
