Runaways also feels like a really early 2000s concept to me at this point. Not saying you can't update it, but I kinda feel the moment has passed.

Light Gun Man posted: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. Nah, Clint being a huge man whore is an important thematic element of Fraction's Hawkeye, you could do it, but you lose a lot.

Young Avengers is another one that is slightly dated and the original version doesn't work without Kang and they kind of need to set him up first. There's all these great concepts that I'd love to see in live action but too many of them just don't fit in the current size and scope of the MCU as of yet.

I'm getting a little tired of Charlie Cox's "I was just rescued from drowning" delivery in emotional moments.

Daredevil season 2 was great but I was just so bored of all the ninjas by the end. By 13 Matt must have beaten at least 200 of them and they just lost all punch.

In the comics, the hand's sheer numbers wear down Daredevil, it's like fighting the ocean itself, every one he knocks down is replaced within a half-second by another one who's also in right in his grill, overwhelming him and not giving him time to breathe. They didn't.... really do that in the show.

ufarn posted:Something felt very off about the rooftop fight. It felt like they fought less than a quarter of the people there. Maybe because they cut out a minigun scene or something winnowing the numbers or something? Yeah it was really odd. You'd think they'd want to go all out for the big finale but that was the worst fight scene in the entire series.

The last two episodes of DD S2 were just kind of really bizarre in terms of direction. I felt the whole show just kept getting better and better up until that point, after which there was just kind of a large tonal whiplash and it became really goofy.

I love Ray Palmer and whatever but that is a serious fall from grace. Dude goes from playing one of the greatest fictional characters ever to playing off brand Ironman on the CW

Superman is a career brick wall for most of the actors playing him anyway, once you play Superman nobody can see you as anybody else.

I never knew they did 2 Ultimate Avengers cartoons. I've just watched the first one, they've sanitised it well, having recently read the whole of the ultimate universe run I hope they carry on. I'm eager to see a version of Ultimatium where Magneto drowns New York in 100 mm of water and ruins Wasps new shoes before Blob eats her....birthday cake.

Neither of the Ultimate Avengers cartoons are anything to write home about, but I did like Hulk vs Cap.

Is this his first episode? I thought they cast him back in season 1. Or was that just planning ahead with a family portrait?

I've only seen the pilot, but man Supergirl is a good looking show. I guess it helps that it doesn't have that CW look going on.

It seems that the lawyer stuff is going to be important to The Defender's team up as Foggy is working for the same firm as Jessica Jones

I honestly don't get the attraction from Karen to Matt at all. Only finished episode four, but from the pilot till now he's basically done literally nothing from her perspective but be a weird alcoholic recluse who disappears for days at a time, rarely shows up at the office leaving her and foggy to solve all the problems while she desperately asks "Where's Matt?" And when anybody is like "we're broke and have no money" he just wryly smiles and goes and gets some beer. He's a complete douche. Maybe it's just that his only romantic competition is a human potato? A brave and cool human potato, but a potato nonetheless.
