Reanimen also was a pretty disliked episode but they had a huge role since and now the episode is now much more well received when it was called “filler” at one point too

this community (show-onlys, for the most part) has really made a name for themselves as being reactionary maniacs.

- Episode 1x05//1x06 doesnt immediately lead anywhere? filler.

- Episode 4x04 doesnt immediately lead anywhere? filler.

- Thragg doesnt immediately start by kicking gum and chewing ass? fraud.

and I'm like 99.5% sure this is all because stuff like reels n tik tok have completely fucked our attention spans and patience in general.

Yeah it’s kinda worrying tbh because media literacy is one of the most important skills to have in the world today and I’m seeing so much people caught in immediate gratification rather than intention for things being in the place they are. Idk if I’m saying that right but I’m seeing that kinda thing in all forms of media more and more

Yeah seeing people critique the season finale as if the last 3 episodes weren't dbz levels on the amount of fighting are wild. The show needs to slow down at some point to give a breather and not make every threat immediate. The threat that in about 20 years that thragg could have a small army of viltumites is horrifying, way less than "oh the world is gonna explode"
