The one I remember specifically is she tries flying through the window of a club to save Spider-Woman, (No, not that one. No, not that one either. The other one... n-no, the other other one), and they end up bouncing down a Manhattan street on landing.

mr.capps posted:Do you guys think Purple Man is going to do a Kevin Spacey impression when he monologues to the audience? First of all, you made me imagine Tennant trying to do a Southern accent and you need to be aware of how bad a person you are for that. Secondly, I doubt it, but it'd be an interesting take on the comics, given that one of the ways that character is made unnerving in Alias is having him address the reader. nelson posted:How the gently caress did that end up in a Marvel book? It seems like something that should have stayed in Japan with their perveted comics. Except that in this comic it's treated as really hosed up and the whole story is about her getting past it?

Jason Aaron's Punisher was good. As was Greg Rucka's.

I think the issue is that it's a weird fit for what they seem to have in mind. Jones, Cage and Daredevil all work in this small, ubran area of New York. Iron Fist COULD, but the most successful run of stories from the comics were globetrotting, dimension jumping adventures. Even his origin is a lot harder to squeeze into the Hell's Kitchen vibe, because it involves Himalayan mountain climbs and magical kung-fu cities.

Mover posted:Living Weapon went really action-oriented body-horror at times, it was an interesting genre blend. However, it had zero Fat Cobra which was a pretty big problem. Yes, but the problem with the Brubaker/Fraction/Aja run as a basis is that it's A) not really possible to do and have the whole thing shot in Brooklyn, and B) as a result expensive as all gently caress to actually do and not have look silly. It's one thing to have a woman lift the back wheels of a car off the ground, it's another to create a believable dragon for Danny Rand to fist fight, or a woman who can summon spiders or a dude made of fog. Not to mention how it clashes with their seeming conception of this group as a small-scale, street level thing.

Gyges posted:Actually, what you could do with Iron Fist is have him Kwai Chang Caine his way into Hell's Kitchen and have the over arcing plot be retaking his father's company from the mystic extra dimensional kung fu dudes who currently control it and are using it's resources for evil. Dare Devil already had the Hand as one of the gangster factions, so just expand on that. And Carrie-Anne Moss can be either the lead henchmen, or more likely, the old friend/employee of his dad's who is trying to help Danny stop them.

gently caress it, make Iron Fist about that one lady Iron Fist from China who blew battleships up with chi-arrows. It can be a period piece and she can be after the McGuffin from Defenders. If you're going to be totally impractical, go the whole hog.

The truth? I suppose you could stretch to Ultron, but you really find Jeff Bridges Yells A Lot or Chris Eccleston Under A Ton Of Latex compelling as characters?

computer parts posted:Oh yeah, one touch I did like was Matt praying at Elektra's bedside. We hadn't really dipped into the explicit Catholic-ness in S2 other than the priest meeting. There was Matt crossing himself when he said to Frank that killing the Blacksmith might be the right call.

enraged_camel posted:I just think they missed a big opportunity when Matt told Elektra that the whole Black Sky thing is a myth and Elektra didn't respond with, "and your Jesus Christ isn't?" Stick said it, pretty much, something like "Don't believe in coming back from the dead? Isn't your whole belief system based on a guy pulling that off?"

Ireallylikeeggs posted:Yeah, upon viewing four seasons of three different Marvel Netflix shows, it's pretty obvious they'd all do better with 10 episodes instead of 13. Especially if some of those spare episodes could be donated to The Defenders. That would actually have left enough episodes for a fifth show like Punisher (or to allow Daredevil to be renewed without having to do a new contract with Marvel Studios), as the original deal was for 60 eps, I believe.

McDragon posted:That was some good stuff. Roll on Iron Fist. Well, Diamondback's supplier seems to be tied to Justin Hammer, and remember that MCU Justin Hammer is Sam Rockwell as a wannabe Tony Stark, so I totally buy that he or his company gave a sci-fi high-ex round a silly name like that Rocksicles posted:1x12 Method Man getting held up and meeting Luke was pretty awesome.

I dunno, take away the flashback episode from Daredevil season 1 and we know about as much about her as we would know about Fisk.

Firstborn posted:The joke is that the roster consisted of: 1 hero that doesn't have a current running series, 1 hero that is being pushed by Marvel, 1 hero that is a personal favorite of whoever is doing the book, and 1 hero added on a dare. Interestingly, there's a current Defenders comic featuring the line-up from the show, and all of them have comics right now. (And are all personal favourites of the person doing the book)

Party Plane Jones posted:The only worthwhile thing to come out of this season is the picture of Charlie Cox being taught how to knit: I now want a scene in JJ season 2 of Trish trying to get her to use knitting as a way to stop drinking and Jessica knits her own gloves.
