    I'll take the over. But I'll bet under 50.

    Well, the scores will be dependent on how many people Marvel pays off for good review. :p

    I'll reserve my predictions for critic scores until after the trailer drops on Thursday, which the timing of the release is kind of curious since SDCC is a few weeks away. I'm guessing Marvel didn't want the trailer to be swallowed up by the MCU, DCEU, Star Wars, etc during SDCC.

    However, I'm leaning towards a critic score over 50, just because it seems like Marvel Entertainment is putting alot of effort into this with an IMax release for the first two episodes.

    It has Ramsay Bloton doing evil stuff, people love that. Probably push it over 50% alone.

    What feel wrong is the actor playing Black Bolt's brother. I will give it a try for Anson (will be a first as far as the ABC Marvels, if watch more than one episode without zoning out). Thankfully, I have no ties to the characters so outside of the glaringly craptastic acting by that young guy, I will tune in.

    the best part about all of this is that they're promoting use of imax cameras to film those costumes and effects

    its like steve buscemi wearing an $800,000 suit

    But are they also filming with James Cameron's 3D cameras that were used for Avatar?

    (in reference to those trailers for the fourth Resident Evil movie)

    Yeah, that trailer was very underwhelming as the costumes and backdrops look very budgeted for TV.

    Personally, I think the trailer would have played better if it started with Black Bolt demonstrating how devastating a whisper of his voice is, why would set up moments in the rest of the trailer. I hate seeing Medusa with flat hair, plus the that her body language is so stiff.

    Moreover, the Inhumans don't feel like the MCU's version of the X-Men but rather the literal "poor man's" version of Thor and Loki.

    That looks... not good. Hawaii Five-0 looks better.

    Honestly, and I never thought I'd say this, Ramsay Bolton doesn't look or sound like the right kind of evil for this... and I thought he'd be one of the draws. Lockjaw and Medusa look terrible... and showing Black Bolt's face... ugh...

    How do these Inhumans connect to the ones in Agents of SHIELD?

    It depends. Either they do or they don't. We don't know yet.

    Looks like garbage except for Lockjaw. Just make the show about him. I'd gladly watch the adventures of a giant teleporting dog.

    So what you're saying is that it looks so bad it'll be moved to CBS and it'll spawn 8 or 9 seasons.

    public access is more like it

    there's no dc property on the cw that looks remotely as bad as that, nor does AoS or Gotham

    the flash's often hilariously bad special effects are citizen kane in comparison to this nonsense

    There reallya ren't much in the way of FX in that trailer though. The shooting style does seem more like your typical network TV like Hawaii Five-O than something intended to show off in IMAX. There are a couple bright spots in there (the dog and the moment Ramsay's bluff is called) but it doesn't stand up to quality of the other Marvel TV shows so far. Hopefully there will be another trailer that will highlight more FX-heavy content when those shots are finished and might have more visual draw to them.

    They're the ancestors to the ones on AOS, who have been referenced throughout.
