tsob posted:Get Steven Chow to write and direct one please and thanks. Since I just powered through the last few episodes of this show to jump back in the thread I'll take this one. Yes, Sam Alexander is awesome. His series is great. Loeb only wrote the first six issues but they too are great. Marvel has a lot of really good younger heroes right now but I think Nova is the best of the lot. Though the description above is a bit off as his dad isn't dead just missing and he doesn't really have an connection to the Nova Corps because they don't exist anymore.

Tatum Girlparts posted:Have they talked season 2 at all? It feels like this was made to be a one and done thing but since nearly everyone is saying 'holy poo poo this is great' I could see them doing a second. Maybe get Elektra in the mix and redeem THAT terrible movie for a full circle? Deadpool posted:The deal on season two is this, the entire Marvel/Netflix deal was already budgeted for five shows at $200 million. There would be time to do another season of Daredevil before the Defenders team up if they wanted, but it would have to be a separate deal that would have to be funded separately. They also would have to worry about oversaturation of the Marvel brand on Netflix and whether a potential season two would mess up whatever they have planned story wise for the other shows. So yeah they could do it if they work out the money for it, but we probably won't know that for a bit.

They've already said that when we meet Luke Cage he will already have his powers. Also for the talk of where the other Avengers are during Captain America, I can't speak for Thor or Hulk or Iron Man but Hawkeye's absence is apparently explained in Age of Ultron. If the reports are true it's a pretty good reason too.

Just because they don't take the time to show you Matt going back to get his canes doesn't mean that he just leaves them behind and has a closet full at home. Most of the times he disposes of them it's near places where he probably goes all the time.

I thought the intro titles were red wax, like the candles in a Catholic church, not blood. Fits more with the theme of the show. Plus it didn't look like blood at all. Also I think the suit looks great.

Steven DeKnight mentioned that Marvel requested to have Ben killed in the show before the part was even cast. They cast Vondie knowing ahead of time he was going to die and they could get him for one season.

When I came in and took over the show from Drew, they pitched me the broad strokes of the season. And towards the end of the season it was always written in code: ‘Wilson Fisk sends Ben Urich on vacation.’ I had the same reaction; I go, ‘Wow, killing Ben Urich, such a mainstay of the Marvel Universe.’ And they told me, ‘Yeah, Marvel asked to kill Ben Urich because they wanted to set up the feel that, despite everything you know about the comics that in this world, it’s very much everything goes.'

As much as I like Daredevil I think Jessica Jones has the best source material available of any of the Netlfix shows (especially when adapting to a TV series) and for that reason it's the one I'm most excited and most worried about. I just want it to be a good representation of a great book. Obviously many things will need to be changed but as long as it keeps the spirit of the series that's all that matters.

DivisionPost posted:I wouldn't be shocked if they have plans for Karen besides that. The fact that it looked like they were about to fridge Vanessa, only to juke into Wesley getting gunned down by Karen, tells me they see a little more potential in the female characters than most comic book writers. The guy that did that wasn't even a comic book writer! Well the second part, not the first part.

The Sharmat posted:So Iron Fist is actually a relatively average white guy that gets accidentally caught up in some kind of crazy mystical Kung Fu war? Is Ironfist going to be Big Trouble in Little China: The Television Series? I guess I'll put this in spoiler tags because some people might not want to know, but here's the basics. Danny Rand is not average. His dad discovered K'un L'un, the mystical city, as a child and became the adopted child of the ruler. Later he left the city and went back to society and started up a business and became rich. He tried to go back to the city with his child and wife but certain events happen that basically leave his son alone and like his father was he is taken to the city and trains as well. He eventually becomes the Iron Fist and eventually returns like his father did. That's the quick origin rundown.

I've already said this thread is NOT going to turn into a giant debate on race in regards to Iron Fist and it's casting or any of that mess. If you want to talk about the show, the actors, and the plots that's fine but if you want to discuss other matters in regards to that can of worms it's not going to be in this thread or whatever version of it exists when Iron Fist starts going.

Time passes in between episodes of this show too. For example after the fight with Nobu we see Fisk commenting on Daredevil has been pretty much missing in action for a while. There's a couple of other subtler mentions in other episodes as well about things that happen between the episodes. So the events in them aren't just running back to back over a course of a week or two.

muscles like this? posted:They could always retcon Bullseye in as the sniper Fisk hires to shoot all those cops. That's not much of a retcon since it's pretty clear from the scene it is him. They showed the bag with the playing card on it for a reason.

I think it was in that IGN interview where they asked specifically about the Elektra and Bullseye call outs and DeKnight and he just had a big smile on his face and said "I can say nothing" when they mentioned the card. It was Bullseye.

ruby idiot railed posted:"Works at" might be too strong a characterization for the relationship /sites/X/ have to Forbes. Yeah, that guy doesn't really work at Forbes, he's a contributing blogger which isn't the same thing. The one that called it the best thing in the MCU was as well. Anytime you see /sites/ in the URL it's a contributing blogger and not really a Forbes employee.

The Daredevil movie actually does a lot of things right. It's a great example of the fact that doing a lot of things right doesn't automatically make for a good movie though. Because it's not a good movie. Also, I want to see an extended 30 minutes of this please. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gh0nIWg7EvI X-O fucked around with this message at 00:44 on Apr 30, 2015 |
