I love this show and Majors performance is always superb, but I'm not a fan of how the stutter was portrayed either. But it gets a little better as the show progresses. Other than that, the storyline is solid! And the ending of the series is awe inspiring!

2024-01-23 22:19:15 +0000 UTCI'm the complete opposite. I thought Majors acting in this episode was up there with being near phenomenal.

2024-01-23 16:41:04 +0000 UTCI don’t get the majors hate, he played a timid awkward genius with self doubt in the 1800s how do y’all expect him to sound; and there many different ways ppl stutter, it’s not fake just because you’ve never heard it before

2024-01-23 16:20:51 +0000 UTCI may be in the minority, but I didn't care for Majors portrayal of any of the variants. If they do continue the Kang storyline (I hope they do), I for one will be happy to see another actor take on the role. And this has nothing to do with Majors offscreen issues; I felt like this after he first popped up in Loki Season 1. That performance was ridiculous, and this idea that he filled Loki with dread was absurd based on what we saw. Majors seemed to be trying too hard, and I believe it led to overacting on his part (the Quantumania post-credit scene being the worst offender). Why the director for either project didn't reel him in is head-scratching.

2024-01-23 08:09:42 +0000 UTCI get the stutter is because timely is a coward and I get the voice is "acting" but that doesn't mean it's steller. That's why I said it like I did. It was a character choice (acting) but a choice I personally thought sounded dumb. Maybe the director or actor. Don't know don't care just voicing an opinion like the people we are paying to watch

2024-01-23 06:16:45 +0000 UTCI mean I just don't know what they were trying to accomplish with the fake sounding "acting" voice. If one variant had it fine but listen to Kang and timely (and a bit of he who remains but that was fun) and you'll hear this kinda fake sounding lowered voice. Kinda weird to me. But I feel they are too deep in Kang story to just jump to another villain. Maybe marvel can make it work but I trust them to make it cohesive

2024-01-23 06:15:37 +0000 UTCI disagree it’s called acting. But I hope they remove kang altogether and pick a new villain.

2024-01-23 06:12:01 +0000 UTCYea I REALLY don't know what they were going for with that weird stutter and voice. Now that majors is out I hope they recast and choose a different thing for Kang because all of his variants had that weird voice

2024-01-23 05:07:35 +0000 UTCI love Jonathan major's acting: be able to Play different version of one person required a great acting and many skills and Jonathan delivered it perfectly. I hope that the actor Who gonna replace him can acting like him. ( Excuse my English, I don't really speak English I speak french but I try to learn.)

2024-01-22 18:15:37 +0000 UTCYea I enjoy Victors pace, its strange and weird but different. Gives him something extra, just like he who remains was over the top with it

2024-01-22 18:03:08 +0000 UTCinteresting that you didn't like his acting, I thought it was great, Jonathan Majors kills it in any role he plays.

2024-01-22 17:50:52 +0000 UTCSo Daniel Craig( our most recent James Bond) was in talks to play Thor's brother, Baldur, who was supposed to appear in the MCU, but things apparently fell apart, hence the reference. Timely's stutter is just a way to show the differences between the different versions of Kang. This was incorporated into his speech on stage as well as using pauses on purpose to further illustrate the effect on time that he has, even when it's unintentional. The Ferdinand Lang name above Victor Timely's Temporal Marvels is most likely a nod to one of Scott Lang's ancestors Ravona giving young Victor the TVA guidebook caused the Sacred timeline to branch off into it's own thing, as shown when they tell you what year and place they're in in the episode. Lastly, Ravona's going on about how she's the order(all logic brained)to all the chaos and then Sylvie walks in and blows the room to hell, illustrating Ravona's point by becoming the literal manifestation of chaos(all emotion and revenge). And it's because she's all emotion that Timely is able to get through to her when talking about not knowing his heart. K, that's all. Great watch guys😁

2024-01-22 16:51:49 +0000 UTCI love how they show what is the Sacred Timeline and what is a Branched Timeline. For example we arrive to 1868 Chicago apart of the Sacred Timeline but once a young "Victor Timely" was given the TVA handbook it branched from the Sacred Timeline creating an alternate timeline where everything post 1868 has changed slightly with the rise of Victor Timely. Without the TVA handbook Victor would've just grown up as a candle maker living a pretty normal life in the Sacred Timeline. Kang the Conqueror, Later becomes He Who Remains was born in the 31st Century with most of his variants as well. So this little kid existing in the Sacred Timeline is really interesting as he was born in the 19th century yet looks just like Kang. My theory is that Kang placed "Variants" of himself across the Sacred Timeline as a fail safe, each in differant time periods. Sleeper Agents who Kang could activate if he was ever defeated, giving birth to a new timeline and Kangs who could rise to take control of the TVA. But in the canon of the Sacred Timeline all of these Variants just lived a simple life and died. Not too far fetched for people to look the same throughput history for example how a bunch of famous actors have doubles from old pictures who look like them. In the comics a humiliated divergent version of Kang travelled back in time to 1901 and established himself as Victor Timely a industrialist, inventor and founder of Timely, Wisconsin. Basically this version of Kang got tired of trying to conquer the 21st Century (Most likely got stopped by Avengers, Fantastic Four etc) so he went back in time to the 20th Century to build up an industrial empire of his own, faking his death and coming back as his own son Victor Timely Jr and later his grandson. Once we get to the modern age Timely Industries is going strong and they even have security measures behind the Baxter Building (Fantastic Four) and Avengers Tower, Even has control over the Sentinels, Mutant Hunting Robots.

2024-01-22 16:25:46 +0000 UTC9:15 I do agree that Thor isn’t too tall. Furthermore, Tom Hiddleston and Chris Hemsworth are pretty tall and about the same height. 13:58 Who would’ve thought tap-dancing would be essential for a presentation? 19:28 I think this is the first time people praise Loki for his magic. 26:35 I would’ve loved to see this play out.
