Marvel's ECHO is Bad (Explored)

Ойын-сауық

Back in 2023, the overlords at Marvel realized they might have messed up. The return of Disney CEO Bob Iger signalled a change in the wind, with a much-needed slowdown on the horizon. As a result, their 2024 calendar looked surprisingly light, with "Echo" and "Deadpool 3" as the only things the company would be releasing.
With all its episodes dumped onto Disney in one go, "Echo" emerged as a show that marked the dawn of the Marvel Spotlight era, a promise to bring more grounded, character-driven stories - their attempt to pivot from its 16-year legacy of intertwined, complex narratives to something a bit more... digestible for the casual viewer. But, "Echo" quickly strays from its pledged path. In less than thirty minutes, the show dives headfirst into familiar territory, with Maya Lopez and Daredevil thrown into an unremarkable brawl, and a cameo by Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye, highlighting they knew it couldn’t stand on its own legs.
The action is sub-par, the writers confuse arrogance with stoicism, characters lack defined arcs, clear motivations, and seem to float in a narrative limbo. And they’ve butchered not only the character of Maya from the comics, but also Wilson Fisk from the Daredevil Netflix series. Worst of all, the show is boring and hard to get through.

    The main problem with 'Echo' is that she is NOT a superhero; she's a murderous, unrepentant villain but treated as a hero. IT's the same as they've done in WandaVision. Wanda(I still love her) held an entire town hostage and mentally tortured them for who knows how long - and the "good guys" let her get away with it. Today I learned: Marvel Universe has flying aircraft carriers, aliens and shit, but no safety glass for cars.

    Honestly the thing that made me most upset is how they try and present Echo as a product of her life but in flash backs you can clearly see she’s a psycho since she was born, shooting a bird and lying, kicking a beaten man because he was slightly rude to her because she NEVER bothers to inform or learn to read lips but insists if YOU learn to show you care, she’s constantly endangering her family and making them do crimes how is anyone supposed to like her

    What drives me insane is how they could've turned this around by keeping her as a villain, and by the end she should've strangled her connection with her heritage, and family, but now she has now the resources, and drive to go after Fisk's crown to become the newest queen of crime. But that would imply going against their clearly established objective to be an inclusive representation of her Native American origins rather than tell a compelling, grounded story about a woman that simply is too driven by her own ambitions to find peace. If they wanted to redeem her, they should've established first, why should we take note of Echo. That's how fucking Loki worked.

    women flock to genuinely horrible characters. it's one of the things that allow them to first justify and later normalize absolutely abhorrent behavior. think of concepts like the "ick," basically the concept of just disliking something but so socially warped that women actually believe its normal to abandon a guy after a year relationship because he doesnt like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or something equally as silly. this is just another way for the damaged sad women that work at these companies to push propaganda to encourage women to continue being awful to men and even other women.

That's why people feel so disconnected and bored! Add the cameos and bad writing and you have a recipe for disaster!

    The pacing of the show was also ruined by how repetitive the scenes with sign language played out. The hearing characters would sign so slowly while translating their sentences out loud deadpan. It made both the spoken dialog and the ASL slow and unnatural, over and over. Compare that to the episode of The Last of Us with ASL. The showrunners for Echo should have either embraced Maya's lip reading skills from the comics or hired a better ASL tutor on set.

    I watched Echo extremely late, but I appreciate that this video is objective and professional; it took way to long to find a review video that didn't make crude and offensive jokes. It's a shame what happened with this show - I was hoping for it to be good. Marvel was trying to do way too much and even just watching the first episode, I found myself wishing that they chose to first show her activities within the Kingpin's ranks with this season and then potentially redeem her over a very long period of time, ideally using one or two subsequent seasons to do so. There was a lot they could have done to explore aspects of Echo's character, but I fear we'll never see what could have been

    Echo was fine in essence, it just had absolutely horrible structuring and overall planning. I'm almost 100% sure that you will have the same thoughts on Echo that I did. Most the events weren't necessarily bad, forgoing sporadic events that feel unrelated and disjointed in the first episode recap, random flashback including Daredevil to pop the audience, Native American legends that feel no correlation to Echo's current situation, random misplaced family drama that was supposed to be a mirror of Fisk and what he's taken from Maya only to feel like a disservice to the story because it was rushed. Maya developing a cluster of powers that were hinted to but weren't explained, Fisk surviving a gunshot to the GOD DAMN HEAD and Fisk once again losing in the MCU. Wilson Fisk is now a clear member of the Kang Dynasty, continuing to take Ls that serve as a detriment for his threat level. Each negative part that I've mentioned about the show, I actually LOVED! Echo in particular gaining powers that Echo between her ancestors is actually beautiful. What ruined this show is that it was so underdeveloped and rushed to the point it felt like the showrunners just gathered EVERY positive aspect of 2 or 3 planned seasons and told their editors to smoosh together something that tells something resembling a coherent story. Echo just needed more time to develop and stew, I loved learning about her family and it kept me intrigued until they jumped the shark and felt like Maya went through an entire character Arc within the scene cut. And I am Native American, so the current Native American love and representation that Marvel has given us is AMAZING! I just wish they had done Echo properly and given the show the time it deserved.

    People have survived shots to the head; it’s not common, but it happens. It just depends on where. It's part of the reason that suicides by guns don't have a perfect mortality rate. Even shotguns can fail, which is pretty horrifying. Overall it's not too big of a leap in a world with crazy tech, like nanotechnology.

    Echo's comic powers don't sufficiently differentiate her from Taskmaster, so I wouldn't want to go with that, either. And if you are going to do more authentic Choctaw representation, it totally makes sense to make the powers bridge to that. There's definitely a lot to dislike about the writing - this really feels like writing by committee - and it left me going "okay, but why do I care about Echo?". I was just left disinterested. I agree on what they were trying to do, they just failed to do it well.

    Something about marvels fight scenes seems off now.. empty. You know how props are lighter than their real world counterparts? Like a hammer used in a fight scene is rubber and weighs about a pound so if someone got hit it wouldnt kill them. Its up to the actor swinging and the actor getting hit to sell the weight of the hammer, it should look heavier than it really is for the actor because we know how much a hammer should weigh. It looks really silly when people throw boulders like theyre made of styrofoam, even if they are made of styrofoam, it takes the magic away. Im not awesome at explaining thing but I hope this makes sense: Marvel fight scenes all feel like theyre throwing styrofoam at times. Like they forgot to pretend the hammer weighs more than a pound. And im noticing.
