I really liked ep 2. Tim Roth was great and despite the aesthetic of the cgi Shulk emotes really well. There's genuine acting going on which is not easy to do with digital avatars.

5 eps in and im enjoying the show. Has a ton of personality
|
Just watched 108. Really good ep. The set up for the finale was very strong. Daredevil was a ton of fun and i dont mind him being played lighter in the context of this series. This is a comedy he should be playing for laughs however in his own IP i do want it to have a more serious tone.
SPOILER: show |
Netflix Daredevil: S2E1
Love that fight. |
fucking watching it again right damn now
|
OOh, and then the entire prison escape sequence from Season 3?
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. There's never been a better casting of Kingpin. EVER. |
Ep 102 (the first hallway fight) moved me to tears. The notion that this man would take so much punishment for stranger simply because it was right. It hit me hard. I liked the MCU a lot but that was the moment i was all in.
|
Thats the most heroic anyone has been in the mcu.
|
100p
The shittiest thing to happen to it was it getting cancelled. I hope they do it justice, just like the Netflix version, but I have my doubts :( |
They have my benefit of doubt. Theyve created a mature section on the app and created a password protected account system yadda yadda. Theyve clearly done work so the app can be both family friendly and still have the content they need for adults. They wouldnt do this if they werent meaning to release mature content.
|
Maybe its shit, sure. But theyll have to shit the bed before i throw them out of my house
|
I was more concerned with them wanting to go more of a.... "Guardians of the Galaxy" route, a la low brow humor and all that.
Don't get me wrong, it can absolutely have it's comedic moments. It really should follow the exact tone of what the Netflix writers (or whoever they are) were doing. |
The tone is super important. In the films theyre playing with tone though. Eternals, while boring, dropped the marvel tone for 98% of the film. They know the netflix daredevil was popular and hopefully theyll attempt to make a show that just feels like the s4 we've been waiting for. At the least i can hold out hope until they give me a reason burn the house down with them inside it.
|
I loved Netflix daredevil. His rooftop scene with Punisher and the “I BEAT YOU” finale v kingpin were highlights for me. Especially the latter.

OK, the last episode is fucking great if for no other reason than the 'climax', if you will. It could be seen as a giant middle finger but I prefer to look at it as some top notch trolling.
|
The ending sucked and it makes me question whether bothering to watch a 2nd season , if there even is one, not to mention how this negatively impacts Daredevil going forward.

I saw it as taking the piss out of themselves. That intro is tremendous. :lol:
|
I think the intro is the only thing I loved about that episode. Hell, if they would have done the whole episode that way it would have been epic
|
Horrendous finale.
|
They need to make this right
|
Im not up in arms about it or anything. Its really awful though. Both the initial climax and the given climax are both outlandish. At least the proposed climax addressed plot strands. What we got resolved nothing and just said things were resolved. If thats all it takes is a throw away line we could have listed the major plot points in the 1st act of 101 and announced them resolved in the 3rd act and saved me 4 hours.
|
Well, that was certainly one way to end the show.
|
Oh my.
I was enjoying this. That “ending” was just nothing. |
yeah i had a lot of fun with this show but that finale was AWFUL
|
All the things you were liking and/or invested in? None of that. Wink into the camera and roll the credits.
|
I’d have been OK with the subversion if they’d actually delivered something afterwards. But that? Nah.
|
I haven't read she hulk in a while, but last I checked she would break the fourth wall. Not tear the whole thing down and take a hot steamy shit on it.
|
She's used the comic panels to get places faster. Its doesnt matter if its comic accurate though its bad regardless

If it was just using the netflix menu to get somewhere quick, that would have been great, but it was followed by a giant meta dump that abandoned every plot thread.
She talked to writers in the comics but don't recall her ever doing it for half a damn issue. |
The dropping the plot is my issue. Theres no resolution.

I don't just mean where they skipped the ending and hand-waved it away by literally just saying "... and everything worked out in the end" without actually fixing the intentional car wreck that was going on with the "original" climax, but because of that, the whole show was dangerously close to final season of Game of Thrones. But yeah, that thing where they skipped having an actual resolution was pretty lame. I preferred the bullshit made up on Futurama for "Single Female Lawyer" to this. Like, half the narrative is about Jen being mousey and not having agency in her life until she becomes Shulkie, but the whole show is simultaneously about She Hulk ultimately not having agency in the MCU. You have a show like Loki, that is a device to explain concepts like different versions of the same person and introduce Kang as an impending big bad. You have something like WandaVision using the narrative devices of old sitcoms in a creative fashion to show Wanda's simultanious detererating mental state and upswing in magical ability.... but it's like this whole thing was just a setup to establish Wong and Abomination having a relationship (not like that) that might as well have had a big placard in front of it that says "for future movie use" and say "Yeah, we got Daredevil on Disney now, suckas!" She Hulk felt almost like an aftertought in her own goddamn show. Even Cousin Larry Appleton being her dad made him seem like more of a story-essential person than her. How are you second fiddle in your own series? It was kinda fun at times, but in the end, pretty empty. And from the same place that scrapped Squirrel Girl for being "too gay"... which begs the question, how lazy in the writing department would that show have been? |
It's like when wrestlers mention they are about to "go off the script".
|
I didn't get the point of the series. It was just overall naff.
|
Just finished watching this last night, I really enjoyed it. Just takes a different route from the usual Marvel series/movies, but I liked it.
K.E.V.I.N. and the whole finale was fun. "Are we getting the X-Men?", "See you on the big screen"... "the movies?", so many fourth wall breaks that were fun. Daredevil's return (as Daredevil) was fun. Not only has Charlie Cox not skipped a beat, but the stride with pride was absolutely hilarious... "good morning"... Really good show. I'm sure She-Hulk will be a lot more serious and focused if she makes it to the big screen, but I enjoyed the series and look forward to another season. |
The whole fourth wall thing in She-Hulk fell flat with me. Perhaps it is because I grew up with Saved by the Bell, Clarissa Explains It All, and Malcolm in the Middle; so I'm use to that thing. Plus, Kevin Spacey kind of owned it in House of Cards.

No. I like Deadpool. Unlike She-Hulk, it is actually funny and entertaining.
|
it's cuz women aren't funny. South Park taught us this.
Thank you, Cartman. |
Women can be funny (30 Rock for instance), but She-Hulk was not funny. It was just naff.
|
You're wrong. This is why its the Isle of Man, not Woman.
|
The episode with Daredevil is hilarious. Loved when he was teaching her the difference between goons and henchmen.
