4. Totally Not-China - Iron Fist

The eighth episode of the Netflix MCU's first critical dud saw Danny Rand (Finn Jones), Claire Temple (Rosario Dawson) and Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick) head to Anzhou, China to try and shut down Madame Gao's (Wai Ching Ho) operations there.

Unfortunately, it's clear as day to anyone with even the faintest grasp of Chinese or American geography that the China scenes were actually shot in the U.S., with the skyline distractingly resembling New York City.

The fact that several scenes even use the skyline as a backdrop makes it that much more baffling. Surely they realised it wasn't terribly convincing, and should've sneakily shot their way around it to conceal the artifice? Either way, it's laughable.
