This but unironically. Jessica/Luke, Claire/Matt, Misty/Danny and Karen/Punisher are the only acceptable relationships tbh.

I also really hate how Claire has to have a romantic relationship with every male hero she meets. It doesn't come across as organic, or her owning her sexuality, it just seems like weak writing.

Claire's reaction to the coffee line was great, so I was disappointed when the writing kept pushing them together after that.

Fair enough I was mostly posting that for the "cuz when he gets on he'll leave yo rear end for a white girl"


Probably should have picked a better time to start the video. OTP = One True Paring, it's a dumb (relation)shipper term.

I actually agree. Then again I have totally seen women who have a thing with falling in love with emotionally damaged dudes for whatever reason.

Jessica/Luke has always(by always I mean the like 12 or so years they've been together) been a fun paring in the comics. But I dunno if an actual relationship between them works with the characters as they are in the netflix series'


I also hated that Misty and Luke hooked up. It just seemed so unnecessary outside of getting Misty to be embarrassed enough to try and hide him and thus what she did from the police.

I want Barracuda so bad it hurts but for that you need baby Sarah and for that you need Kathryn and for that you need a long period of Frank being alone.

So basically I hope Terry Crews plays Barracuda in season 8 of the Punisher.

I could see Ving Rhames as Barracuda.

The problem is that Goran Parlov always drew Barracuda as cartoonishly enormous compared to everyone around him, which wouldn't translate well to live-action without some amount of camera trickery.

Really, if you just did a straight adaptation of broad swaths of the MAX book, you'd get a pretty good TV show. You'd have to substitute somebody else for Nick Fury, though.

The nerd part of me isn't quite down with Claire and Matt, if only because Claire is Luke's ex in the comics.

I get the feeling that they're just trying to do as much as they can with Rosario Dawson in the time they have with her, which is understandable. Rosario Dawson is awesome.

Parlov makes Frank just as big as cuda though so I'm not sure changing that would be a big deal to anybody

Jessica and Luke will probably never get together permanently unless one or both of their shows are cancelled (and even then it'll require some navigation through some real logistical hoops), which sucks since their relationship/kid is one of the best in comics, but Luke and Claire are a fine substitute.

Some people might strongly disagree with me, but I think it is in the best interest for Netflix going forward to merge some combo of JJ, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist in the near future. Keeping them separate when they are all most known and liked for their relationship to Cage is silly and expensive. Also it leaves room for more Daredevil and Punisher on the schedule.

I definitely think a "Jessica and Luke" series would be great, especially since they're both characters that balance each other well and work better together than apart, and obviously Heroes for Hire is when Power Man and Iron Fist were at their best, but I sincerely doubt either will happen. I agree that Daredevil should be cordoned off to its own thing though.

I would appreciate it if they went for a different tonal direction if they started consolidating shows. Like, I'd like to see a Young Avengers Netflix series that isn't About Something or is a giant loving bummer, just a bunch of kids running around bein' heroes, getting into Teen Drama. Or Avengers Academy, which is basically what I just said but at school. Or a She-Hulk series that's just about Jennifer Walters trying to make it as a lawyer while huge and green.

They can merge Jessica, Luke, and Danny into Heroes for Hire and have Misty and Colleen there. Matt can be like "uh I got a real job, thanks" and keep on his own.

I could see things potentially spinning off to put Jessica, Luke, and Danny together in one series, and Daredevil and Punisher in another.

Can I just say that the fact that the hard drive the doctor pulled the data for Luke Cage really took me out of the whole thing. Maybe I'm just a pedantic rear end in a top hat who spends too much time with technology but there's no way that drive was still able to start up, especially with the bumps it had taken and especially with the platters exposed.

It was the biggest miss of the whole series for me.

Have literally had someone throw a Hard Drive against a wall and on the ground and was able to boot up and data off of it(Drive only lasted for like another week or so but yeah. Platters weren't exposed but then again

That is such a small stretch as my thought throughout that whole scene was throwing that computer is not gonna do much of anything dude. All that data is gonna still be on the hard drive and probably in decent enough condition to do a data recovery on.

I guess they could have shown a scene of that dude rebuilding the drive in a clean room in order to get the data off the disk in a completely safe environment because of the risk of dust contamination lol.

Yeah. I mean people have recovered data off of HDs that survived fires IIRC. Some stuff you just have to take as shorthand. The data survived. They could have devoted a montage of the realistic data recovery process, but considering that HD scene followed a dramatic scene where they operate on a life or death wound, only to completely ignore that there were TWO wounds and not just one, I am ok with them glossing over tech details to save time.

I have a lot of time for both of them from way back in the day, but I've got a lot riding on Jessica Henwick. I'm really hoping that the MCU's Colleen Wing owes a lot more to the 1970s comics than to the 2000s white jumpsuit version. "Luke Cage" had a lot of the early comics in it, so I'm reasonably hopeful.

Ebon Moss-Bachrach (“Girls”) will play Micro, a former NSA analyst whose secrets may be of great value to Frank Castle and everyone around them.

And Amber Rose Revah (“Indian Summers,” “Son of God”) joins as Dinah Madani, a highly-trained sophisticated Homeland Security agent who is vexed by the Punisher.
