Ms Marvel episode 3: Spoiler-y Ramble
We got a mendhi and the wedding??? Plus a medley dance scene at the wedding? Yeh mera dil??? That was excellent. I absolutely loved all the wedding festivities. I liked that they included a bit about Aamir's financial situation, which is from the comics. I loved that Sana Amanat cameo'ed at the wedding!
So djinn and tonic huh? Uh the Clandestine/djinn reveal. I'll admit I'm a little disappointed and confused. Why would the show choose this path when Kamala is scheduled to appear on The Marvels? When the MCU is on the cusp of Secret Invasion? There's already been set pictures of her with the Kree. That would have tied together so well with her being an inhuman, or even just a hybrid for now. I also don't know how I feel about Kamala Khan being a djinn??? That's so... strange. It also doesn't fit with the MCU so there doesn't seem to be any reason for the change? I know there is more to the story. But how much more?? It's also really not making sense. Just some vague understanding that the planet may be destroyed if they open a portal? How does this portal fit with the larger MCU? Also why did Nimra Bucha say to remember that Najma means 'star'?
Ok.. onto my favorite part! We have a found a universe where Kamran doesn't betray Kamala at every turn! *squeal* I guess he doesn't have his cool powers but he does have some moves. I'm definitely team KamalaKamran. I'm sorry but Bruno needs to go to Caltech. I need one win on this show and it has to be a desi romance. But also that's all there is with Kamran? No powers and he didn't know about his mother?
Kamran arriving to save us from the white savior trope:
Nakia is a legend as always. I loved her standing up to the FBI. And I screamed when she found out about Kamala's powers. I'm so so so glad it happened so soon. Her wedding outfit was also just so beautiful. I'm so happy about her reaction and that she seemed upset Kamala didn't come to her and tell her. The agents stepping into the mosque with shoes?? Their disrespect towards ALL the Muslims. With all due respect this show does tackle Ismalaphobia but it is not the only thing it tackles and that's what makes it special.
I'm very excited to see Pakistan and what connection Laal Khanjeer has to everything.
Shout-out to Kamala and her wallpaper of Carol:
I've also just realized that N.I.C.E hasn't been formed yet?
For the millionth time I have to reiterate that this show is beautiful and has some of the most accurate representation of South Asian culture and religion that I've ever seen. I think those things make the show AMAZING and that the powers and origin is just secondary.
Edit: this hand is blue?? Like the Kree?
