The Mentalizer posted:Like I said, maybe I mixed it up with something. And it wasn't "only real veterans can get real PTSD", it was "don't diminish their experience by connecting them to mine" It's actually really hard to use PTSD in court for civilian cases because juries are dumb and don't get it. Abused spouses generally have PTSD symptoms too and lawyers had to invent Battered Wives' Syndrome so that people would understand the mindset though it's functionally the same thing.

Does the Netflix deal have a mandate on # of episodes? Something like a Punisher show might work better with a 6-7 episode season instead of stretching it to 13. I liked Jessica Jones but it really didn't need to be 13 episodes.

GLOSS posted:Filed under "poo poo That Will Never Happen": Jeremy Renner wants to do a Hawkeye Netflix show. Of course he does. He's not getting a Bourne sequel since Matt's back, and he is treated as a third string character within the MCU. Not even secondary. Netflix should consider doing movies to supplement the shows. I think a Punisher movie might be easier to pull off than a full series, but I also understand that there might be some cost effectiveness issues at play there too. But ffs, if they can fund Adam Sandler movies....

I don't think they originally planned to do a second season of Daredevil so soon. I only heard that they were doing one season of each and then a Defenders mini-series. If that's true then they must have room to negotiate for more seasons before finishing their initial run.

I'm fairly certain Netflix will fund whatever the Marvel guys want, seeing as how they've struck nothing but gold with their last 3 marvel series. I fully expect a Punisher spin-off to be announced soon.

Anything else (including Daredevil S2 if they wanted) could be a different number.

Did anyone else get the feeling that they are building up to a story about Melvin Potter returning as the gladiator? He seems a little more cheerful and twitchy about Betsy each time he appears.

Medullah posted:Well to be fair, no one gave a poo poo about Ryan Reynolds Deadpool 3 years ago. Given the right material Hawkeye could be great. Deadpool was in development for the better part of 10 years with Ryan as the lead, and a lot of people thought he would do a good job with good material, and a lot of people felt bad how much the character was screwed in Origins. Deadpool also has/had a bigger/louder fanbase. No one really cares about Hawkeye as a live action character mostly because they chose to make him bland as gently caress in the MCU. Pretty much the only people itching for an expanded Hawkeye presence at this point are people who read the Fraction run, and considering the MCU chose to make Hawkeye a near middle age dad with a family and a farmhouse, I doubt that is even on the table at this point. I'm not saying it couldn't be done well, but it is so far into the unlikely realm that it is probably not even worth considering. There are more people asking for more Black Widow than Hawkeye anyway, so who would it even be for?

It would be cool if they just decided to do something based on Fraction's run and completely ignored the characterization from Avengers 2, kinda like they did with Deadpool and his previous film role.

That was a Fox decision though, and they are kind of free to play fast and loose with their own continuity, especially when the reboots are happening as a result of their own failures. The MCU, by all accounts, is pretty rigid with its creative choices, so the Hawkeye portrayal is what it is and it has ultimately been signed off on by the people at the top. As much as I agree with you, his fate in the MCU has basically been sealed for the time being.

Another factor is I think Fox considers Wolverine: Origins to be a failure and Marvel Studios doesn't consider Avengers 2 to be one.

Get one of the survivors from the Snow Buddies, they have the real world experience with horrible trauma to sell the role.

Out loud, they haven't admitted to failure at all so far, but considering the behind the scenes political shifting that happened around the time Ultron released, I am guessing they might not view it very fondly.

Maybe he has to stay in New York a lot because of Avengers business so he gets a lovely apartment and it goes from there and his family is just a thing that exists but he can't go see all the time so they get like maybe an appearance in one episode or something. Come to think of it, the MCU stuff has really not touched on "sidekicks" or "training my eventual replacement/another hero in my "genre"" type hero stuff at all, has it?

Lurdiak posted:Yeah, that part didn't bother me, I just thought that Karen insisting it wasn't PTSD to Foggy and then explaining Frank's mindset in a way that can only be interpreted as severe PTSD was hilarious. Didn't Karen just pass on that Frank wasn't going to play ball with the PTSD defence? Which was exactly what he told her, hence why Foggy had to get a doctor to diagnose him with something else as a mitigating factor to basically try and pull the big charges down to murder 2?

Honestly, it comes more from the "He's a known commodity in the movies and both TV and movies sides will be DAMNED if they have to work together beyond a minute reference here and there" side of things than anything. I'd love if they'd let the two things intermingle more but it just seems less and less likely as time goes on...

Finished DD S2 earlier today. Overall really impressed with the acting and the overall plot. I was really impressed with the supporting cast. I felt the fight choreography wasn't as good as season 1. There was one flashback scene with Elektra and Matt that was particularly bad.

For anyone wondering (no one), Elektra's french is impeccable. Although the subtitles just lied at one point, possibly for pacing reasons.

Why they haven't done a Young Avengers or Runaways series, either animated or live action is weird. There's tons of kids who love Marvel stuff, and they're sure as hell not going to be watching Daredevil or Jessica Jones, but those would fit perfectly.

Runaways was in production as a film but they dropped the project for assorted reasons. I believe Power Pack has also been proposed but went nowhere.

Power Pack would make for a great not-as-good-as-pixar CG Disney feature, like Big Hero 6.
