Finished Episode 7. Bushmaster is the best MCU Netflix villain since Killgrave.

I like how the superpowers on this show feel like an accessory rather than necessary to push the story forward. Show feels like one man working to make Harlem better who just so happens to have superpowers.

Its gotta be a better way like Lil Troy breh

At least give these goons gauntlets of some sort to try to go head up with him

Some goons from the street with gauntlets?:russ:


Niccas from the hood ain’t got the time and money to be wasting in guantlets. Plus guns is still good for everyone else

Saw nikkas on my tl was slandering this

Is this good brehs? after iron fist:scust:and the defenders I'm kind of apprehensive about these Marvel Netfix joints
The best or second best marvel show . They actually made a good use of almost all 13 episodes . I can’t fir the life of me get why people like JJ season 2 its the first marvel show I couldn’t finish , they even redeem iron fist

One thing I didn’t like was

once we found out Judas bullets didn’t work on Cage anymore, Breh was 100% unstoppable. He was just walking around and knew nobody could kill him now. It didn’t make sense to me how cats were still shooting and fighting him. Bushmaster was overpowered just to give the illusion he could defeat Luke but we all knew he really couldn’t. I like Bushmaster but he wasn’t a real match for Luke despite how it played out in the season. It seems like Luke doesn’t even really try to win half the time.

Bushmaster wasn't overpowered though, he played out pretty much like his comic version with room to grow in the future. It's been mentioned multiple times by different people that Cage is not unstoppable.

Bad accent aside, Bushmaster is a really solid villain. I definitely prefer the writing this season as it’s more nuanced than season 1 and they didn’t try to force the social commentary. It came across as very natural.

But these accents though...:laff:

As a Jamaican, I find these accents borderline offensive. My mum got so annoyed that she wanted to stop watching. She pointed out that they used Reggae songs that she grew up on and she’s 54. Considering these characters are meant to be in their 30’s and 40’s, they could have used some Supercat, Shabba, Ninjaman or Beenie Man..
Me and my brother were watching this and cracking up over their accents.
Last time a movie had such dodgy Jamaican accents was Screwface and them in Marked for Death.
