Daredevil (TV series)

Just watched the first episode today. Good stuff… looking forward to watching the remaining episodes.

Episode 11

Marvel has already announced the movie tho

Have they? I missed that. All I have heard was that there was going to be a cameo in at least one of the upcoming movies.

I think the character is spent right now for movies. 2 "meh" franchises in 15 years is VERY over-saturation.

They have it slotted for 2017.. and promised an actual teenage peter parker and no origin.. pushed their other projects (Black Panther, etc.) back

Especially since this second spidey franchise set up a huge storyline and now they are just starting over again lol

Watched the first two episodes of the show last night and don't think I'll be watching anymore. First, his partner is a dweeb. 2nd, I can't get into the whole blind thing.

If you can convince me to give it more of a chance please do but I'm just not interested in a blind crime fighter.

If you dont like the comic book concept, than why bother?

Also, if the RAVING reviews in this thread are not enough to convince you, I dont think any more comments will.

Nothing is for everybody...

I'll add another RAVING review to that list. Going to binge watch it at some point this weekend, I'm a couple episodes in and the writing, acting and action are all extremely well-done. I was turned off at first because that Ben Affleck movie left a bad taste in my mouth but this series is downright awesome. Recommend it to anyone who likes deep dialogue and nicely choreographed fight scenes (same stunt man that did the Captain America fight scenes).

The guy who plays Kingpin is fantastic as well.

spectacular show, imo

origin story told for adults

much less axe body spray feel like the avengers movies, thank goodness

So just finished the first season. Overall really, really good. Episode 12 fell pretty flat and didn't make much sense IMO but the finale got it back on track.

Only major complaint would be I'm not really digging how they did Kingpin. His character is supposed to be feared not only for being gigantic but also for being extremely intelligent. What we have on the show is a sort of bipolar hot-headed fat guy of slightly above average stature. I mean shit Kingpin from the comics can go head to head with Captain America in hand to hand combat. If I didn't know any better I would have assumed that Netflix Fisk was some billionaire's retarded son. The most intimidating things he does all season are beat up a couple old guys and sucker punch a few other dudes.

I was almost hoping they'd kill him off so we could get a different villain in there next season. Still looks like we'll get a new one but I really hope they either don't focus on Kingpin that much or at least try to make him more believable if they do.

You should give it more of a chance, but I can't convince you unless you watch it. His friend is a dweeb, but it plays into the story line later on.

I think we are getting Elektra forsure next season and maybe even Punisher or Bullseye as well.

Kingpin might stay in jail for a lot of S2

It was kind of like an origin story for Kingpin, he's not "the Kingpin" just yet. He started making that transformation when he started killing off all his business partners.

It's similar to Daredevil's suit being unfinished. They are both on the road to becoming what we all recognize them as.

I'm only through a few episodes and it'd Phenominal.

I don't know if it's awesome or sad that I instantly recognized Foggy Nelson as Fulton Reed.

I had no idea what you were talking about...



After looking it up, I threw out my shoulder patting myself on the back for not knowing, and strained my neck shaking my head at you.

I will be sending you the chiropractor bill.
