What If...?

I signed up to Disney due to the Marvel movies and the hype around the streaming shows.....I've been through Wanda which was okay, FatWS which was like being told off in detention, not fun and Loki which was a real disservice to the character.

So onto What If?.... And whilst the idea is interesting and the animation very good (what you'd expect from Disney) I cannot make it through any of these short episodes without falling asleep, drifting off or just turning off. I'm not sure why but there's something not quite right about it that I can't put my finger on, it doesn't hold interest or attention.

Disney subscription has been cancelled, it all has got a bit boring.

It all started from first season when they really made us realized what if... ? In every vast imaginable possibilities for marvel comics. Mainly, it was a great effort through animations to make us understand the interconnections of every marvel movies and shows totally independent of each other and they did succeed by connecting X-Men, SpiderMan, Elektra, Blade, Daredevil, Fantastic Four, etc. Under one Brand and Studio.

But, they ultimately made this particular show's story totally oriented towards "The Captain Who Never Was" i.e. Peggy Carter, making it all about her along with extra irrelevant short What Ifs stories of other characters totally made for Fill Ups.

As much as I love the animation style and using the original actors for voice-overs, much of 'What If' fizzles and falls short. Many of the storylines have never really dwelt on what many Marvel and comic book fans would think of when asked 'What if?" To me, this series would be super successful if it actually gave an alternate perspective to known story lines. Episodes like: if Carter became the First Avenger, or Ultron Won, and even 1602 were great. Others just were weirdly, acid-trip induced crap.

As a longtime Marvel fan I never wondered if T'Challa became Star Lord, Nebulla joining the Nova Corps, or in the latest Season 3- Avengers made their own Voltron?!?!

What if the series took the original movies and did the opposite? What if Tony died or New York wasn't saved in Avengers? What if Killmonger succeeded in defeating T'Challa? What if the Guardians couldn't stop Ronan in a dance off?

These are possibilities that would have been fun to explore. Honestly Season 2 should've been the last one, because as evident in Season 3 Episode 1, there's not much imagination left. It's Voltron or Pacific Rim meets the Avengers. Dull and already been done.

Really enjoying this series & the risks they've taken so far.

There are so many stories here to tell yet there is too much focus on Captain Carter, sure 1 story about her is fine but there's (so far) 3 episodes about her in season 2 and I fear more to come. I'm just not that interested in her. Also skipped the one about the native American hero back in the day...didn't know who she was and didn't care.

They made some odd choices on which stories to tell. I would of liked to see some more spider man, iron Man, hulk and Thor but we got stuck with carter too much or hero's we don't care about.

Required characters are stupid with reviews, its not a God damn thesis.
