I've been very disappointed. My brother shared a podcast with me that was talking about it, and I thought they captured a lot of my feelings very well: https://www.theringer.com/podcasts/midnight-boys/2025/06/26/ironheart-episodes-1-3-and-fantastic-four-final-trailer-reactions-the-midnight-boys

They came at it -- like I do -- from a place of love. I loved Riri in Wakanda Forever, I love the idea of the character, I really like the actors and I really want to like this show. Ultimately, I think it has not been a good show, but I do believe it was made with love, and I absolutely want everyone involved to get more chances to make this better.

I like it, and tbh I reviewed the episodes on IMDB a bit higher than I would've, just because it was review bombed.

It's honestly pretty decent marvel show. It's not cinema, no, it's marvel. But I like marvel, and I'm really pro having a show for black girls. Sounds woke? I mean it to.

Some of the shit might feel ridiculous and over the top, but then if you were a young black woman, you'd probably feel that for most of the strong cishet male lead movies.

I've liked the subplot as well. It's kinda clear where it's going (I'm only on ep 4, starting 5), but they're still keeping someone for the nerdier fans to speculate on.

I'm enjoying it so far. Better than the Librarians which I've been binging as a setup to watch the new one.

If I can try to build on this constructively, I think sometimes conversations about diversity in media become a little bit too categorical, and dare I say overly race-focused.

I want to see characters like Riri Williams because her lived experience is different than that of Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Bruce Banner, and so on. It's not just that she's got melanin. It's that her age and place of birth and the resources available to her and the obstacles that she faces are different from those of those other characters. It makes stories fresh. It gives people from that background more media with which they can more closely relate, and it gives people who aren't from that background an ability to better relate to and appreciate the experiences of those who are.

I just feel like this sometimes doesn't get acknowledged enough. I'm not looking for more "black people". I'm just looking for more people. And black people happen to be among many kinds of people we haven't seen as much of in these stories so far.

Thank you tomato meter, now I may watch my slop in peace

Who cares about the tomatometer? The popcornmeter is the only thing that anyone should go by, and even then it should never exclusively be what you decide to watch and not.

It depends on your tastes. I tend to agree with critics more than audiences. As with any review, the most important aspect is knowing how well you align with the reviewer.

Good. I didn’t super-like the trailer but have quite enjoyed the first three episodes.

It’s been fun!

The reviews i saw on Google were terrible, but most were blatantly racist conspiracy theories

I'm going to watch but I have to wait until it has been fully released. I can't carry a narrative on a corporate schedule. I hope that it still reads positively for Disney Plus analytics and rewards those involved.

Come now, nobody except execs who already make way too much money will be rewarded if the show does well. The employees will probably get laid off either way so they can hire newbies for less for the next show anyways...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The first three episodes are already out and the next (and final three) are out later today in ~2 hours.

So if you started right now you could watch them all.

Will do, thanks.
