Danny dies two episodes into the show after trying to impress the others by jumping over a car.

He has not - who knows if that Stan Lee trailer bit with the Punisher was from Defenders or Frank's own series.

This was posted in TVIV.

They aired the premiere episode at comic Con yesterday and during panel gave answer to that: yes he is in the first scene of the show.

Sleepy Hollow was enjoyable but Season 1 and 2 got by on two factors - a) Everyone expected it to be complete and utter garbage, so when it wasn't it surprised everyone and b) John Noble.

Given what a bunch of lameos the Netflix Defenders are, am I really to understand they expect anyone to cheer them on going up against Gao and Siggsy? gently caress that noise, I hope the two old dears wipe the floor with them.

Just noticed something from looking over casting news about the Punisher series: Jigsaw is the villain, being played by Ben Barnes. They just used Jigsaw's real name, so he may or may not be going by that alias in the series.

I can't argue with this. The second she showed up she was the high point of Smallville. Supposedly Snyder met with her and Welling about possibly jumping to film but knowing Welling he was an rear end about it.

Erica Durance is easily the highlight of the entire series of Smallville and is probably my favorite non animated series Lois ever. I do love Noel Neill too though.

Erica is not a bad actress at all, she just got a bad rap from Smallville. She was quite good on Saving Hope.

Daredevil is the only one with a secret identity , so the only one with a costume.

But wearing a mask is part of the Iron Fist's actual uniform. The leader of his heavenly city wears a mask too. Plus it would allow a stunt man with 20 years of kung fu experience to do the fight scenes.

It's very important that we see the dead emotionless face of Finn Jones at all times during fight scenes. Which is why they randomly cut to it in the middle of a punch landing like the editing version of an epileptic fit.

There's a bunch of actors who are legit martial artists in addition to acting. I'm not sure why they didn't cast someone like that, because I'm pretty sure Finn Jones only got stuck into fight training when he was cast as Danny Rand.

They should have cast Lewis Tan, who played the drunken fighter, as Danny. Handsome dude, he's biracial, and he's an actor, stuntman, and a trained martial artist.

Also displays more charisma in those 5 minutes than Finn does in the whole time 13 hours.

Name another Punisher only villain. Him and maybe Barracuda are about the only recurring that I can think of. Otherwise it's the Gnuccis, generic mob family #23332, or some other random criminal.

Hard to have a Rogues Gallery when you kill your opponents.

Hopefully we'll the Jigsaw storyline and have Luke Cafe crossover for the best Punisher storyline ever where he got plastic surgery to look black.
