Nah, just gimme season 2 already.

Sixx 11-19-2017 12:50 PM

DD2 - I was just waiting for him to show up. All the other stuff was cool for me, but he stole the show in my opinion.

Swiss Ultimate 11-19-2017 07:00 PM

I'm savoring this...

RP 11-19-2017 11:40 PM

ok starting episode 2.

RP 11-21-2017 02:06 PM

I'm on episode 6 atm.. brb with a halfway review.

RP 11-21-2017 03:02 PM

So i'm 6 eps through. So far i like it a lot. Not love it. Just like it a lot. I think the story telling has been great, assuming it will culminate the way I think it will. The show has given us small samples of Frank going ape shit. Like EP 3 when he stormed the compound by himself. I love the writing with Frank and his " partners " wife and kids. I'm not expecting him to fuck his partners wife. I feel like he's trying to be the dad they've been missing for sure.

I think after 6 EP's, its obvious this shit is getting to a boiling point where Frank goes fucking ape shit.

Also, the cop chick ?? ( who is hot as fuck, love those fuck scenes. Very well done ). Is she Morenna Baccarin's sister? I cant tell for sure. Seemed like a similar last name, but i cant remember. Fuck me those parents much be sitting there thinking " Damn! We fucked good on the night we had them ! ".

RP 11-21-2017 03:10 PM

This show is so well written.

Ruien 11-22-2017 01:18 PM

Finished it. Really enjoyed it. So much pain that went around geez.

Swiss Ultimate 11-26-2017 03:22 PM

That was the greatest.

Lock Jaw 11-26-2017 04:14 PM

Just finished the 6th episode..... 4-6 not as good as 1-3, but show still good overall.....

Sixx 11-26-2017 06:01 PM

Overall great. Already said this before, but before DD S2 I though that casting wasn't good. I mean, love Benrthal but he just didn't seem to fit the role in my opinion. Glad I was super wrong.

Swiss Ultimate 11-27-2017 09:39 AM

I heard some pundits complain that this show was anti-military. I...don't see it? There were certainly some political moments in the show, but fuck if the art didn't make up for them.

Sixx 11-27-2017 09:40 AM

Huh? Anti-military? You mean the illegal covert operations? That's fucking common knowledge.

Destor 11-27-2017 10:00 AM

Its only asnti military if you think talking about PTSD is ant military

Kalyx triaD 11-27-2017 05:42 PM

Yeah Punisher was the most patriot the MCU got since First Avenger.

Yeah. Maybe that's it.

Rammsteinmad 11-29-2017 02:08 PM

Eight episodes in. Loving it so far!

Lock Jaw 12-03-2017 11:38 PM

Finally just finished this up. Loved it....

SPOILER: show
Was really glad it wasn't just Punisher blasting criminals and common crooks, and instead a personal vendetta against a government conspiracy.

Really loved the dichotomy and relationship between Frank and Micro. One man who lot his family, and the other whose family are still alive but he can't be with them..... (Both Frank and Micro's wives were v hot brauds)

Got worried like halfway through the season because I started thinking "There's only two ways for this to end in a satisfactory way..... Frank dies from wounds taking everybody down, or he stops himself from killing everybody and brings them to actual justice"......

But thought the way they ended it was very good.....

Never liked Punisher as a character in the comics, but I loved the way he was presented in this series......

Swiss Ultimate 12-04-2017 10:09 PM

I'm kind of done with the rest of the universe. The Punisher works much better in a world without magic ninjas.

KIRA 12-04-2017 10:11 PM

Aww man the ending was brutal and great

Tom Guycott 12-04-2017 11:13 PM

I like that he isn't exactly a lunatic beyond saving. He's at the edge, but still aware enough that he needs help. Don't even just mean mental help, but actual confidence and trust in people even when doing exactly that is pretty much always beyond his "better" judgment.

My only gripe about the series as a whole is just how goddamn lucky he is. There have been so many times Frank's been saved not by his own instincts or training, but because someone is a shitty shot or the right person happened to show up or happen to do something that works in his favor.

It would be one thing if he were a mutant with probability manipulation, but if he were, he'd be on the X-Men side of things and this show wouldn't exist.

Trailer and some photos were recently released for Season 2. Debuts on January 18th.

Wet for this.

Blonde girl is pretty cute.

Only beef I have with it is Russo's face isn't nearly as scarred as it should be. But I guess they're going a different route. He's so obsessed with his looks that those few scars make him ashamed of his face and he wears a mask.

Lock Jaw 01-16-2019 11:31 PM

I can see this running into a Jessica Jones type situation..... where the first season was so great and so personal, and the second is meh......

Based on some early reveals, that might be the case at least with this season's story. Supposedly the story is weaker than Season 1 but the action is closer in tone to the Punisher MAX comics.

El Vaquero de Infierno 01-17-2019 11:22 AM

Rewatching the first season at the mo, so everything is fresh for the new one.

Rammsteinmad 01-17-2019 02:14 PM

Can't wait to see this! Punisher's one of my all-time favourite characters!

Currently halfway through Runaways Season 2 and two more episodes of The Gifted, then I'll watch this.

RP 01-18-2019 10:24 PM

This motherfucker Billy with scars and shit, looks better than me... wtf......................

RP 01-18-2019 10:58 PM

This bitch just shot her own officer and no one gives a shit......... #MeToo

RP 01-19-2019 02:16 PM

I wonder if this new girl they cast for Punisher, had to agree to lick John Bernthal's butt. I bet Bernthal was in the casting room giving her looks like " Yah, you're gonna lick my butt ".

El Vaquero de Infierno 01-20-2019 05:46 AM

I'm 2 episodes into the new season, and I feel Castle should shoot the blonde chick; irritating as fuck.

Kalyx triaD 01-21-2019 04:45 PM

Good season. Funny how everyone is stuck just dealing with how crazy Castle is.

Damian Rey 2.0 01-23-2019 12:06 AM

Just finished it. Intense. It's not the same personal story as season 1, and they shoehorn Karen in in a way that's completely meaningless. Also, the John Pilgrim character is interesting enough, but he is kinda stifled in a season that's packed with all kinds of storylines.

They could've left the Russo stuff out and saved it for season 3. Or not. I dunno. I wasn't as in to the Billy stuff as I was with Castle being kind of a drifter and being drawn back into due to wanting to save the girl. That was a far better storyline for me. Though I did like the Russo stuff, the girl and her thread in the show was more intriguing for me.

The fight sequences in this season are fucking brutal. There's one in a rat hole gym that's just a fucking car wreck, and i loved it. Also, as good as most of the cast in these Netflix shows has been, Bernthal is easily my fave, even more than Cox as Murdock/Daredevil. I love his character and I hopewe somehow get a 3rd season out of this.

Kalyx triaD 01-23-2019 10:34 AM

lol These shows are dead. After JJ season 3 that's a wrap.

And It's clear you think about the same thing as 7th graders would should get together with R Kelly.

Guys like there butts licked too. What's wrong with you?

El Vaquero de Infierno 01-29-2019 07:39 AM

Finished the second season. I don't think it was as good as the first one, but still enjoyable. I would definitely like to see some more seasons, though that is unlikely.

Sixx 01-30-2019 12:35 PM

Those things with Castle getting with the ladies... That was just terrible. Hs bed scenes in episode 1 were so cringeworthy.

Kalyx triaD 01-30-2019 01:32 PM

I don't think Punisher is romance heavy.

Damian Rey 2.0 01-30-2019 01:56 PM

It really shouldn't be. I agree that the early stuff was kinda whatever. I get why they went that direction but meh. It did lead us to that awesomebathroom fight scene so that was cool.

El Vaquero de Infierno 01-30-2019 02:02 PM

Frank Castle needs some lovin' too, yo.

Sixx 01-31-2019 06:01 AM

NECKBEARD CASTLE HERE - HERE I COME

Sixx 01-31-2019 09:43 AM

What is this Leon bullshit going on here?

Fuck her at least.

lol

The best was in like episode 6 or 7 he's talking to Carl in the car and telling him that she was special and she was the one and all this shit. I was like " Dude you just took a bar hoe home and fucked her for one night.. what the fuck? ".

Helmsphere 01-31-2019 11:33 AM

Castle knows the best way to fire a gun, is to unload it from time to time. Can't take on baddies with a clogged up barrel

Sixx 01-31-2019 11:52 AM

Mixed feelings this season.

Seriously has a Leon The Professional vibe.

And the way they went with Jigsaw... weak.

Black Widow 01-31-2019 12:48 PM

Agent Madani is annoying

Billy's therapist was lame

Other than that thought it was good especially the actors that play Frank and Billy.

Damian Rey 2.0 02-01-2019 02:00 AM

The Billy stuff was really anti climactic. They should've left him out completely. It took away from the more interesting John Pilgrim.

Sixx 02-04-2019 05:16 AM

Not as good as season one, but still enjoyed it.

Bernthal is so over the top with the grunting. He keeps doing that, he's gonna be the next Batman.

I didn't mind it. In fact, I strangely liked how anticlimactic that part of it was... though I think it might have been more a metaphor for the show. If there were guaranteed non Disney meddling and keeping everything around on Netflix, he likely would have been built bigger.

I *still* have a problem with how lucky Frank is, though. I mean as in how much more luck and happenstance favors him than his actual badass military skill or tactical planning. It wasn't nearly as bad as season 1, but seriously.

Best exchange, though:

"You need a minute?"

"I was waitin' on you."

They respected eachother enough to try to kill the other man fair and square.

Damian Rey 2.0 02-07-2019 03:56 AM

Yeah Pilgrim was really interesting. I wish he was more of a focus.

Favorite Punisher like is still telling Daredevil "When you hit em, they get back up. When I hit em, they stay down".

ClockShot 02-18-2019 01:22 PM

Cancelled.

El Vaquero de Infierno 02-18-2019 01:42 PM

This sucks ass. We could have had at least another season.

Rammsteinmad 02-18-2019 03:06 PM

Okay I'm only just catching up with all of this. So why is this bad? Can't Disney pick them up, or is it too mature?

Kalyx triaD 02-18-2019 04:14 PM

A combination of Disney putting their own effort into the TV scene and Disney+.
