I'm not going to refrain from saying that this series now has me very worried.
The plot itself was good, though. Great, even. Well, half of the plot, and that half being the The Hulk storms the city in a battle against Zzzax, and Spidey teams up with him to stop the little electricity twerp. That would have been far more entertaining if we'd actually gotten to see the fight from a proper view point.
Now for the bad part.
Almost the whole episode was from the view of a video camera. Mary-Jane got an interview with Spidey (*cough, cough* with Petey, who loves her from afar, ahem) to enter a contest. That would have been all good and dandy if if wasn't done the way it was. It could have been interesting, if it wasn't all, "this is Mary-Jane live," "live report from Mary-Jane," blah blah blah all the time.
She kind of annoyed me, as she always seems to in this series.
No offense. She has the potential to be yet another awesome character, but she's not quite there yet. I hope the writers will step up their game.
Anyway! Back to the fact it was all from a video camera. What kind of a camera has such awesome zoom and yet it cuts out all the time? And I was watching the battery level through the whole episode - it started off full, but then it slowly ticked down until the battery was almost drained. And then, whoops! It's full again. Whaaaaa...?
Okay.
Fine.
I'm picky.
So web me.
Also, the lack of SHIELD is making me sad. The other members made a brief cameo in the beginning of the episode, and Nicky was there, but still. They need to be around more. Like, a lot more. If this series is going to do something like a group of teen superheroes working together to fight crime, then they need the teen superheroes. All of them. The writers seem to have been straying from that the past few episodes.
AND.
I never thought I'd say this, but...I miss the whole family values thing. I mean, what did the kiddie viewers learn in this episode? Nothing. Not that I care, but the inconsistency of Ultimate is starting to go a little bit awry.
So...that's really all I have to say this time. Not their best episode at all. And it's a shame, because bringing in The Hulk could have been pretty awesome. That, and I wish Gwen was in this series. I've said this already, but if there must be a love interest, Gwen all the way. Sorry, MJ.
