What If...?

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.

Talk about potential wasted. In a world where literally anything is available for them to do... They ran out of cool stories after the first season. The first season had fun, exciting, interesting stories - with our favourite marvel characters doing awesome things. Then the second season came along and they chose to focus on lame characters, and "what if's" that were no longer meaningful or interesting to watch. For a 30 min show things felt slow for much of each episode. Many of the episodes felt skippable and I had to resist zoning out. Where's more of the "zombie" level of What Ifs? That was crazy and wild. That's the kind of What If scenarios I wanted to see.

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.

This is fun. I am enjoying every story.

Not all episodes are as good but overall it's worth it.

(The doctor strange episode for example was exceptional).

If you are a Marvel fan, you will probably like it, for these -and many more- following reasons:

1-Happy to hear all the voices from the MCU actors. Makes the starting titles interesting; you d wanna see who's in it.

2-The stories are captivating. There's some comedy, action, drama; a good range.

3-There's some great one-liners. New ones and also memorable ones.

4-The pace of each of the episodes is excellent. It really gets you into the story.

5-It does great tribute to MCU's pivotal points.

Give it a go, you will enjoy it.

8/10.
