INHUMANS Cast Respond To Negative Reviews; Claim The Series Is Only "Loosely" Based On The Comics

Early word on Marvel's Inhumans is not good and now the cast has weighed in on that claiming that it's been blown out of proportion and that the series is only "loosely" based on the source material...

Inhumans finally reaches IMAX screens this Friday and with early word on the show extremely mixed/negative, it's no wonder that the cast of the ABC series is being asked for their thoughts on that. Fans have not responded well to the trailers, the first review was overwhelmingly negative and the TCA panel for the series was turned into a laughing stock by members of the press. So far it's not looking good for Inhumans...

"We are kind of just loosely based on the comics," says Ken Leung, who plays Karnak in the series, says below. "The source of some of the mixed reactions to the little that people have seen so far [is] that a lot of people love the comics, they have been around for decades and it remains to be seen how people will accept something that is its own iteration of something that’s already beloved."
 
Anson Mount, who plays Black Bolt, adds: "I think that the quote-on-quote awkwardness at the [TCAs] was blown out of proportions. There was all this news that we ended the Q&A early, which we did not. It was actually scheduled to end at that time. I think people should just see the thing." Whether or not they will remains to be seen but all is going to be revealed this coming weekend.

@Ha1frican - Exactly! I'm not too versed on the Inhumans, but the show looks bland and boring..

@Ha1frican - In that case, I'm only loosely interested

@Ha1frican - Yeah, it's the Inhumans, not the X-Men. Nobody really cares about them. This show just looks bad.

@DomoAgamotto - I'm versed in the comics and this looks like a train wreck waiting to happen. It actually looks worse than the Fox-Men films to me. I was planning on seeing it on Imax... that's not happening. I'll watch it on TV and make a decision from there, which will probably mean I won't be watching.

Marvel has its first spiralling flop and watching it unfold and seeing marvel fans (me) coming to terms with that has been amusing to me in ways that I can't convey.

@PBIRD - Technically, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was Marvel's first flop, until the end of Season 1, when Sif arrived.

@AlphaDean - That's disappointing.. It should've remained on the movie slate

@Luminus - AOS season 4 (just binged it again in the last 4 days) is one of televisions great shows! It is solid. Ghostrider, LMDs and then MADAME HYDRA Framework ending in a cliff hanging of being in space? I mean.... solid!

@DomoAgamotto - Aint that the truth. All that power going into INFINITY WAR would have been the dopest!

@DomoAgamotto - @DomoAgamotto - Yea it is. And now with the latest review, I'm really saddened. I blame Perlmutter and Scott Buck though. Perlmutter needs to be fired and Scott Buck needs to be band from directing all things comic book related. This show had the potential to be epic and now its just going to be another failed TV show. This is going to hurt the genre bad!!!

@SanFranLand - Me too I watch all CB TV SHOWS and drop it after the 1st or 2nd episode if it sucks or not interesting. I dropped all CW shows and ABC shows but Marvel netflix and Legion.

@mastakilla39 - You should really give SHIELD a second chance. Got so much better after Winter Soldier came out during the first season. Up until that point they were kind of just treading water while fleshing out the characters a bit.

"We are kind of just loosely based on the comics." Oh, well that will certainly make people feel better.

They still have time to just cancel all showings and make a movie. Then they can at least make their money back.
