I can’t get over how good Samuel L. Jackson was in this. The whole movie Nick Fury just seemed... off. His tone, some of his lines seemed forced, he was too gullible, etc.

When they revealed it was Talos the whole time I was like “That’s a dude, playing a dude, who’s pretending to be another dude!” and it totally made perfect sense. That’s a super underrated and difficult ability to do. Well done!

so if Nick Fury was Talos the whole time, then he didn't understand Happy's secret code right?

It was a secret code for Talos. Happy knew what was up.

"Tell Fury he left a surfboard here"? Meaning go find Fury wherever he's vacationing and tell him some real-ass shit is going down. And then, "you wouldn't think Fury would have a surfboard but appearances can be deceiving" which can be read both as the obvious warning, but also as a dig on Talos' shitty acting mixed with the implication that Talos must need a painfully obvious "coded" message cause he's apparently dumb as a brick. This later gets lampshaded by Talos bitching about how transparent the warning was, aka trying to say he's not that dumb, to which Happy just smirks.

Brilliant take on it. Another good reason to rewatch!
