Marvel’s Inhumans director Roel Reine has addressed the mixed reception to the debut trailer of the show, stating how he wasn’t a fan of the reel either.
Journos saw the pilot and say it is a disaster. One of the many tweets:
Quote:
The version of the Inhumans pilot we've seen does such a poor job of explaining Karnak's powers that when I straw polled a bunch of critics about what they thought they were, nobody got it right. I said this to Jeph Loeb, who said he wished he had been there when I did the poll because he could have explained it. Which isn't ideal, even if he insists we've seen an unfinished product, and final version explains more.
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."

Everything looks and feels cheap and rushed. Even Medusa gets her hair shaved as a cost cutting measure.

$100,000 spent on VFX reshoots to give Medusa CG hair after the initial negative reaction her wig got. But as we know she gets her hair shaved in the first episode
Now, insiders say that eventually Lockjaw disappears from the story because production couldn't afford him.

It's unlikely to be canceled before they see the ratings it gets.

No idea about Fringe, but everything, including that NASA room, is *ridiculously* low budget/scale/scope/amateurish in this.
You can see the exact same beach used in LOST by the same network 13 years earlier, but here the shots look like they come from a straight to video flick instead of how incredibly filmic and unlike then-TV everything was in LOST's debut.
Then we move to the city of Honolulu where it was dressed in LOST as California, New York, UK, Australia or whatever they wanted to depict every time they were doing off-island flashbacks (and what not), while here the city looks un-filmic and b-rate. Which I guess is how Honolulu really is, but just goes to show how much of a better job others did to make the city look more filmic and even be able to stand in for big American cities etc.

In fringe, massive dynamic which is a big corporation which specialized in technology research, has quite empty offices. Big shot Nina had a completely empty office without even a computer.

Shh, thaat's called being intellectually superior and eccentric

I know who these dudes are. I don't know why they are with him. It makes absolutely no sense how they decided to risk their lives for him because they sympathized with him after he told them bad dudes are after him.
If he had first risked his life for them or something, sure. But as the situation played out that's just incredibly amateurish plotting.
