She-Hulk - This Is Rock Bottom

“A good novel tells us the truth about its hero, but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author.” G.K. Chesterton

You think this is bad, wait till Disney makes They-hulk.

I love how every time he says "The Message" he sounds more tired and spiteful as he rightly should be.

Jen in the comics was an immensely likeable character, a formerly shy and awkward woman who gained self confidence after becoming She-Hulk, learning to genuinely appreciate who she was and become more outgoing, friendly, and such but even before that was also a compassionate and considerate person always willing to lend a hand, especially to her cousin Bruce who she both thanked for the power given to her and also felt regret towards knowing she lucked out on getting a transformation that was easier to control. She-Hulk could've easily been the female character Marvel and Disney had been wanting for years, one tons of people would happily line up to watch. Instead they took everything likeable about her and tore it out, basically making her a sad, bitter, selfish, naracisstic, misandrist, clown who only cares about her job, which she's utterly terrible at by the way, and never shows even a shred of compassion for anyone that isn't her. Talk about dropping the ball hard.

She-Hulk pretty much destroyed Banner Hulk within the first episode. She literally tells him how she's "infinitely" better at controlling her anger than him because her struggles are far worse than what he's been through. So just to compare, Banner Hulk spent years on the run hiding from the government trying to hunt him down, spent years meditating to control his anger, sacrificed his love life (twice) to protect them from his alter ego, tried to commit suicide on several occasions,fought in 4 wars (3 of them against alien races), was trapped in the Hulk body for over 2 years trapped in an another planet, almost got killed by Thanos, and sacrificed himself to bring back half of all living creatures across the entire universe using the Infinity Stones. But that is nothing compared to being a 30 something successful, female lawyer being cat-called! 🤷

You gotta wonder how difficult the people writing this character must be to deal with if they think this is a positive portrayal

“Am I going to jail?” “No, but I would like you to.” As someone currently in law school, I don’t need to finish my classes to know that she is one of the worst attorneys imaginable.

This series single-handedly cured my insomnia

"The writer's own hangups and personal insecurities projected right onto the screen" describes most of Hollywood, and a large segment of news reporting, and perhaps most of the Arts in general.

So, you’re telling me, when Bruce first became Hulk, he had to run away from everything he loved and cared and spent years hiding but when Jen becomes She Hulk, everyone loves her, seems kind of unfair.
