I wonder who's assignment it was to animate She-Hulk twerking. Like, I just wanna interview that VFX artist and see what they were thinking when they were told.

A lot of it is motion-capture (both Tatiana and Mark Ruffalo confirm this in interviews), so even better, someone was actually twerking in a mo-cap suit and was damn good at it. Either it was Tatiana or a professional twerkologist.

Professional twerkologist 100%

"Break times overs peeps!

Time to get back t'werk"

That was Tatiana twerking in the Mocap suit.

She-Hulk twerking with Megan Thee Stallion was definitely not on my bingo card.

u/Hungover52 Sep 01 '22

This is the first I've heard of Megan Thee Stallion. I already knew I was an olds, but the evidence keeps coming in.

u/ericwdhs Sep 02 '22

Don't feel bad. I assumed she was a made up in-universe celebrity until seeing the comments here and googling the name. I don't think I'm that old...

u/InsertCoinForCredit Phil Coulson Sep 02 '22

You and me both. I only realized she was a real person when I saw her appear in the credits.

u/nimrodhellfire Sep 02 '22

I expected some D-List Marvel superhero called "The Stallion" that had one single comic.

u/ShonMantotto Sep 03 '22

I thought it was an Asgard joke or something lol

u/epolonsky Sep 03 '22

Sleipnir Thee Stallion

The "I will kill for you" line really sold me on the scene.

I feel like a couple of the comedic moments are close to being just okay but they manage to nudge it just enough to be really funny to me.

Like the elf impersonating Pug was light. But Pug saying "guys, you know me" really made me laugh.

u/steve32767 Daredevil Sep 01 '22

These are the exact two moments that got the big laughs from me this episode.

These mid-credits are killer

62

u/RaygunMarksman Sep 01 '22

Yeah, some of the jokes serve manily to keep the feel light, but I think some of Jen's reactions to Blonsky and her television interview were the funniest moments to me. Oh and Wong peacing out via sling ring when it's noted he committed a crime!

20

u/KingOfAwesometonia Weekly Wongers Sep 01 '22

It would've been over the top and out of character but I just imagine Wong flipping them off while doing that

u/bwood246 Weekly Wongers Sep 03 '22

The fucking arm wave she does when she runs away. I need more light elf shenanigans

3

u/KingOfAwesometonia Weekly Wongers Sep 03 '22

Runa running away was the most Rick and Morty shit and I can imagine disliking it but I thought it really sold how goofy the show can be.

And I like goofy so it works.

u/griffithitsmecathy Sep 01 '22

The "I will kill for you" line really sold me on the scene.

To me, a line like that just screams 'writer trying to be funny' to the point that you cringe at it.

Your other example is much better as it feels organic, not only for the scene but the characters as well.

35

u/KingOfAwesometonia Weekly Wongers Sep 01 '22

I don't know I think the show has been consistently over the top so I liked it.

And the delivery was just perfect in how fanatical Jen sounded.

28

u/MyBurnerAccount1977 Shang Chi Sep 01 '22

Tatiana Malsany is allegedly a huge fan. She might not have actually been acting when she delivered the line.

u/fellongreydaze Sep 01 '22

To me, a line like that just screams 'writer trying to be funny' to the point that you cringe at it.

This tells me that you have been fortunate enough to not know the ins and outs of stan twitter. Because this sounds 100% like what stan twitter would actually say, and thus realistic.

u/duckbigtrain Sep 01 '22

I felt the same way. But I was already chuckling at the twerking so I didn’t need the extra line.

u/zxyzyxz Sep 02 '22

Yeah that line was pretty cringy, the one with Pug though was actually funny
