Hawkeye Disney+ Limited Series (spoilers)

[Ryujin]

They were Bad Guys. They had a Nefarious Plan. In her mind, it was her job to make sure they failed.

She works for a security company, she's middling-okay with lockpicks, she has special security-company apps on her phone. It doesn't need to be sitting out in plain sight for her to think she has a shot at getting to it.

It's a point of entry. Maybe she was trying to find a way to open it.

Or maybe she was leaning on it, trying to see what was going on below?

 

[MoonSong]

No, no. It all just shows how out of her depth she is. She is competent to an extent, just completely outmatched and inexperienced.

 

[Thomas Shey]

Most regular folks don't understand that modern fencing is a game to be won. They think that it's a combat skill. It will likely show up at some point.

True.

Even with Martial Arts not being her best skill, they showed her to be able to improvise. Like when she slammed Huge Tracksuit Mafia guy into the hood of the car. He was too tough to take on directly, but making him eat a Toyota was effective.

Sure. That she was able to handle them all shows she's pretty good--just not in the weight class of her acrobatics and archery.

I think that "weight class" is the operative term, for sure. Gymnasts tend to be smaller. It's a rotational mass thing. Archery requires some very specific muscles and, at a set draw weight for a recurve bow, any muscle mass beyond draw and hold is pretty extraneous. (We're not talking 150 pound English Longbow here. I'm thinking about the Lars Anderson videos in which he's crowing about archery combat skills, while half-drawing a 25 pound child's bow.) When it comes to being able to physically move bad guys, however, a certain amount of mass is beneficial.

Regarding her decision-making: it’s worth remembering that, as her mother pointed out in episode 1, Kate Bishop has thus far not had to face major consequences for her mistakes.

 

[Older Beholder]

I enjoyed the first two episodes.
With the last live action TV series being Loki and the last movie being Eternals, it was nice to get something I bit more down to Earth.

The musical and the LARPing were both really fun scenes.

His face during the LARP screamed "Dad doing stuff for his kid" lol

Well, isn't that what Christmas is all about, really?
