I regret to say I still need to watch The Boys....

My top comic book show still prop gonna be Legends of Tomorrow or Doom Patrol

Seanny One Ball 07-25-2020 01:29 PM

Doom Patrol is too cheesy and daft.
Alan Tudyk is great in it though, as always.

Destor 07-25-2020 07:00 PM

Id have to go with the easy answe and say daredevil

Destor 07-25-2020 07:01 PM

I fucking love legends tho

Seanny One Ball 07-25-2020 07:04 PM

You told me it was Krypton

Destor 07-25-2020 07:35 PM

Ive never seen krypton. Wasnt it dropped after like 3 eps?

RP 07-25-2020 09:35 PM

Daredevil season 1 and 3 were fantastic and 2 was pretty good.

Lock Jaw 07-25-2020 09:54 PM

Still never watched Daredevil S3

Krypton was dropped after 2 seasons.

I dropped it after like 3 eps though.

Are we counting animated shows?

Cause Batman The Animated Series is greatest of all time, for me.

Damn straight

Tom Guycott 07-29-2020 02:56 AM

That's just unfair. Should stick to the live action comic based stuff. Otherwise, Batman TAS would overshadow a lot of other shit in a lot of categories.

Big Vic 07-29-2020 08:47 AM

Batman TAS isn't on any streaming is it?

Lock Jaw 07-29-2020 09:36 AM

Maybe on DC Universe?

I bought this for DVD though. Blu Ray was expensive. I love it. I'm not even half way through.


Lock Jaw: Season 3 of Daredevil is probably the best Netflix ever put out. It's really really good. I've seen it twice.

Lock Jaw 07-29-2020 10:23 PM

Yeah, I hear it is really good.

Never watched Punisher S2 either.... really liked the first one.

Also, I think there is a S3 of Jessica Jones, but S2 was a chore so dunno about that one....

El Vaquero de Infierno 07-30-2020 05:29 AM

I too found season 2 of Jessica Jones a chore and I think I only watched a couple of episodes from season 3 before moving on.

El Vaquero de Infierno 07-30-2020 05:30 AM

I would have loved to have seen a season 3 of Luke Cage; it looks like it was going to go in a really interesting direction with Cage essentially becoming a crime boss.

Damian Rey 2.0 07-30-2020 03:22 PM

I, too, only got thru a few episodes of Jessica Jones. S2 wasn't great and I couldn't get into s3 because of it.

S2 of Punisher was pretty good. Bit of an underwhelmingending but once it got going I really killed it.

S3 of Daredevil was fucking stellar. The scene with him yelling at Fisk in their final brutal, bloody battle, was so damn good.

Damian Rey 2.0 07-30-2020 03:26 PM

Just watched it again. Damn it I love that scene.

Seanny One Ball 08-23-2020 08:28 AM

Season 2 looks relevant to say the least.

Race riots and superheroes...

Damian Rey 2.0 09-04-2020 05:33 PM

Watching the Boys. A nice little slow build first ep to catch up with where everyone is at after the season finale. Episode picks up the pace and is glorious.

El Vaquero de Infierno 09-04-2020 06:56 PM

I'm waiting until the whole season has been released. Motherlovers need to understand this is not the 1990s or 2000s; I expect to binge a season at my leisure.

GD 09-06-2020 03:20 PM

Completed the first three episodes. Can’t wait for the new one. Holy shit! Episode 3 was too good.

Seanny One Ball 09-06-2020 05:07 PM

"Episode three was too good"

They used to perform long and endless vaudeville routines around wordplay like that.

GD 09-06-2020 05:10 PM

Your sex life would make for a good silent film.

Ugh

Seanny One Ball 09-07-2020 04:15 PM

That doesn't even make sense but I do applaud the burn.

Seanny One Ball 09-09-2020 05:00 PM

Started watching season 2.

A strong return so far. The performance quality and style makes a lot of the details palatable. This is a smarter show than Umbrella Academy with a much more acerbic edge to the characters.

Polished and reliable writing.

Damian Rey 2.0 09-09-2020 06:10 PM

It is far and away better than the umbrella academy. It's not even close.

Episode 3 was so good. Hate having to wait a week to get back into it.

GD 09-10-2020 02:22 AM

Why would anyone compare this to Umbrella Academy? Both are different in execution and this is clearly superior.

Seanny One Ball 09-10-2020 05:32 AM

Are you seriously asking why anybody would compare two contemporary shows with similar themes?

One is more grittier and dark whereas the other is more accessible? That's just me. They're both enjoyable but I'd hate to compare them and water down the other because the comparison feels unfair.

Seanny One Ball 09-10-2020 07:00 AM

So I can't compare one Batman to any others if they are "more grittier"?

How about comparing versions of A Star Is Born?

What do you even mean by that post?

GD 09-10-2020 07:15 AM

Comparing different iterations of Batman doesn't come across as wrong since they share the same protagonist, characters, and stories. The Umbrella Academy and The Boys are two very different shows. One deals with a dysfunctional family with superpowers and other is about a group of guys of who are on the run and trying to seek revenge / justice against people with superpowers.

Seanny One Ball 09-10-2020 07:31 AM

They are both shows about dysfunctional groups of superheroes. In one they are protagonists, and the other they are antagonists.

It's the same premise essentially.

Superheroes are dicks too.

Seanny One Ball 09-10-2020 07:32 AM

Even if they were different you can still compare them though. Comparing things helps you understand them more.

GD 09-10-2020 07:39 AM

Your argument for comparison is better than mine.

I just have a strong preference for one over the other. Feel like it undermines "The Umbrella Academy" which I also cherish.

Big Vic 09-10-2020 08:57 AM

How would you say "The Boys" compares to "A Star is born"? Which is better?
