#SecretInvasion #Breakdwon #EasterEggs
Now this is the kind of mCU we’ve been missing. I love the cosmic stuff, and the multiversal stuff, but the MCU needs a ground level hero to show real human stakes. This is the first regular people storyline we’ve seen since hawkeye-everything else has been gods and the multiverse. So I am very excited to break this spy thriller down, let’s go.
We begin in Moscow, which is a perfect setting for episode 1. It immediately puts us in mind of cold war spy thrillers like James bond-that same genre that this show is emulating. The moscow font is also the same as black widow and captain america civil war: another couple of MCU spy movies. So that sets this series directly in that wing of the MCU.
So we open with former CIA agent Everett Ross, whoo we first met in Civil War, then saw again in black Panther and Wakanda forever. And in the opening scene he is revealed to be a skrull./ the big question is was he a skrull the whole time, or is he a recent plant? I’ve got theories that say he has beena skrull for years, in a video that’s releasing tomorrow, so subscribe to make sure you don;t miss it.
He goes to meet agent Prescod.
Doug: Yeah, why’s he look familiar?
That is Richard Dormer, who played Beric Dondarrion in Game of thrones.
Doug: flaming sword guy, cool. [high five]
Now , as for Ross, we cover this backstory thoroughly in our secret invasion recap video. But quick refresher, in wakanda forever he was arrested for leaking information to the wakandas, but was sent to prison by okoye.
Faux ross says, of Fury [he’s ono Saber]. So we saw saber in the marvels trailer-it’s the floating space headquarters of sword-that’s the government agency that kind of policies everything that happens in outer space. Monica Rambeau is an agent of sword, and we see in wandavision that she was called up to the agency by a skrull, working for fury [clip]. So Skrulls have had an open partnership with humanity-and now, something has changed. I’ve got some theories about that which I’ll talk about in just a bit.
Basically, swords replaced shields after they fell, and they mostly dealt with protecting earth from space. Prescod’s opening monologue hits pretty hard for people living in the real world [imagine a world where information can;t be trusted]. And this is one of the big problems in the world today, no one trusts the news, or what they read on the internet, spreading misinformation is far too easy, so we don;t know who to trust. It;s the perfect setting for a spy thriller, filled with nefarious agents who can change their form. The tagline of the secret invasion comics campaign was even, “who do you trust?” [batman 89 joker, who do you trust]
But this world of misinformation would be even worse in the MCU, where crazy stuff is happening every day-gods, aliens, robots, giant god alien robots sticking out of the ocean.
When we get a good look at Prescod’s newspaper clippings, we see the chain of terrorism that he talks about later. Now all of these events have happened since the blip. Which makes perfect sense. The blip removed half the people in the world, so missing people would be very easy to replace. And three replaced people are skrull agents who sow discord.
Doug: Yeah, what’s their plan?
So the way Prescod spells it out, the skrulls stir up civil unrest in countries. Linkedin wakanda forever, when we learn that the US wants regime change in wakanda [president wants regime change]. We see this clipping of the leader of the columbian rebels gaining popularity with young people. This guy is a skrull, who starts a rebellion that will make him the leader of the nation. An extremist leading a nation of disaffected young rebels is also very similar to what Gravok is doing with the skrulls, so consider this clever foreshadowing.

I had always wondered why he didn't give a speech or at least tried to contact the superheroes after returning from the Snap. But maybe at that moment he was still overwhelmed by the the fact that even if he had always prepared 3 steps ahead, there is still an enemy that he had never expected.

The reason it is truly hard for me to believe that Maria is really gone is because if she is this is probably the saddest ending any of our MCU regulars have endured... for a character thats been with us since the beginning to go out with no sacrifice for the greater good, no completed character arc, and with her and her best friend to close on somewhat shakey terms, while also even possibly believing he was the one to kill her... not to mention her only action in the episode was her getting beat up by Ni'ah... i refuse to believe the MCU would do that to one of its longest casted heroes.

2 things that you missed: 1.

Mariah Hill also explicitly stated to Fury in his debrief at the table that Skrulls were immune to radioactivity, hence why they are hiding and living in abounded power plants in Russia.

Richard E. Grant played Izembaro, the director of a theater group in Braavos, on "Game of Thrones" and appears in "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" as Allegiant General Pryde. And of course he played "Classic Loki" in "Loki." There you go, the trifecta!

Agent Falsworth might have been related to two WW2 era Falsworths. John Falsworth, a vampire known as Baron Blood and James Falsworth who was a member of the Howling Commandos in Captain America: The First Avenger but was, in the comics, Union Jack, a member of The Invaders, a superhero team which also included Captain America and Namor

- The building the Skrull falls from is named EMIII which is a program used with electron microscopes for the study of protein folding. III is also the third letter of the alphabet, making it EMC, the key pieces to Einstein's equations on special relativity. - The chessboard in the opening sequence shows the King turning into a Queen (foreshadowing). - I think the red, white, and blue nesting doll is a bit of a clue. What other nations have RWB flags that could be at the center of the nesting doll?

An equinox occurs in spring and autumn, when day and night are equally long (equi = equal; noctis = night). What you were thinking about is a solstice, which occurs in summer and winter for the longest and shorter day respectively.

Missed a good Easter Egg, MI6 HQ is referred to as 'The Circus' which is what the MI6 division was called in the George Smiley spy novels by John le Carré (most famous being Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy), in his novels setting the HQ was a secret base at Cambridge Circus junction in London that was located above a shipping company that served as a front for the agents comings and goings.

They don't say since *when* the Skrull was an imposter 😉. Since Wakanda Forever? Since the Blip? Since Civil War? Hopefully they explain some of it, since part of the mystery for me is finding out what happened to the original

@culchiefilms1791 Жыл бұрын

The Skrulls need to capture someone and use that machine to take their full memories. Otherwise they can only use recent memories and it would be much harder to maintain cover. So the real Ross is likely still alive and being held captive in their base New Skrullos with all the other prisoners. Also the Invasion only began after the Blip when Talos was removed from the council so Ross had to have been replaced sometime after Endgame

@serapepe Жыл бұрын

@@culchiefilms1791 Thing is, after Endgame, Ross still appeared in Wakanda Forever, and if he's doing Midnight Angels with Okoye, he should still be out there somewhere. I don't think the Ross we saw in Wakanda Forever was a Skrull, since Val should've easily figured that out. I could be wrong but his imposter might've just used his face like Talos once did with that surfer during his arrival on Earth, which was why Beric Dondarrion and Talos easily figured out that he wasn't the real Ross. Can't wait to figure out what's the deal with us, though. Hopefully the show clarifies that.
