What If... Agatha Went to Hollywood?

The second episode of #WhatIf is absolutely amazing-wow.

This new chapter improves on everything from the pilot episode: it's interesting, visually stunning, filled with great characters, and well-written.

The story takes place in Hollywood, where Agatha Harkness seeks the power of the Celestial, weaving an impressive tale with many twists and turns that keep the audience engaged until the very end.

Despite being a short story, the episode delivers a beautiful message about cinema-what it represents and means to the world.

This episode is just great. If the next episodes are like this, I take back what I said about this being the worst season of the show.

The third season of What if is THE worst show that I have watched in a long time. The animation, the story, the same cringy non-sensical plot. The animation feels like it has been done 20 years ago. The action sequences feel like someone is bashing toys while playing. I feel ashamed to have watched 2 episodes

Spoilers ahead: In the first episode, the worst of the avengers get Iron Man Hulk Busters suits and try fighting Godzilla and his children that have somehow originated from Hulk. This reminded me of Pacific Rim but the dialogue and story is just so childish and there is no sense of gravity or importance in the story. I can't go and criticize each and every point of the story because it will make this review go much longer.

Who thought of this , i know everthing is possible in multiverse. But out of all the great things you thought of bringing this atrocity here. I am indian myself . The dance of the musical in the beggining is just ridiculous. I think you guys are just searching indian songs on the internet and start sampling music. You need to do better. The 3 stars i am giving is for the animations, those seem like the only hardworking people from the entire team. From ironman 1 to this you guys come a long and wrong road a serious improvement is needed in the story makes literal no sense. A marvel fan could make better stories than this? It was a piece of c##p. I am disappointed in everyone who have approved the music, dance, storyline, its is literally unrelated unwatchable. And a waste of my time. Please stop bringing disappointment to table like this please cook something good. I dont believe in the 6 reviews written before me the are full of b######t . This episode was just not upto the par.

I haven't looked at the reviews yet, but I'd imagine this scored badly on the IMDB. Even without the female and POC leads, what I've learned is that the thing reviewers of this show hate the most is fun, and this is certainly that.

Agatha Harkness (Katheryn Hahn) has established herself as the greatest star in Hollywood and is currently acting in the latest picture for newly established movie mogul Howard Stark (Dominic Cooper). Her climactic dance number has an ulterior motive though, that being to tap the power of a celestial currently lying dormant at the Earth's core - but it's not working. To complete the ritual, she needs the power of one more person, who just happens to also be an actor - Bollywood superstar (and Eternal) Kingo (Kumail Nanjiani). Kingo though knows exactly who he's signed up to appear opposite.

I really thought that this was good. It worked back in the Eternals-lore that has been largely ignored since the movie - seriously, not one reference to the giant creatures' head sticking out of the planet since then. It featured everyone's current favourite, Agatha Harkness, and brought back both Dominic Cooper and James D'Arcy as Howard Stark and Jarvis from "Agent Carter" days. There are dance numbers, it's very funny and it looks great.

I'm not here for your performative disapproval.

Ridiculous premise, poorly executed.

I don't even know what to say. It's so awful. I couldn't explain to you what the plan was if I tried. Just seems like they wanted two characters to be involved and created a story from there.

The outcome of Agatha's plan is potentially world destroying, yet none of the characters seem to care. Presenting it as some sort of Hollywood disconnect from reality instead. But surely, world destroying would matter even to ostensibly benevolent Hollywood elites, no?

Then the settings make no sense too... one minute, a character is on earth, the next minute he's floating in space.

And after all, that the world is saved by, of all things, the lure of Hollywood... What If? More like the What the F.
