Just finished it. I'll say this, I was digging it and ready to put this season down as great. Then it lost me somewhere around episode 12. Idk if it was just that the big reveals didn't land for me or the fact that they decided to pull every movie hero trope out of the book in the finale. Some examples.
-Daredevil and Elecktra having that chat before the big battle
-The big bad guy stopping his henchmen so he can have a 1 on 1 with the hero
-Elecktra sacrificing herself for Daredevil. Then giving some speech before her last breath
-Punisher showing up at the last minute. I was actually waiting a while for him to show during that scene, but was left disappointed. You show me a scene with him looking at a mini gun. Then you show me a shot of a roof covered in ninjas. My expectations are the Punisher coming though and massacring 30 ninjas. Instead we get only like 4 dead ninjas and "See ya around red":stopitslime:

Edit: Oh and speaking of 30 ninjas. there had to be at least that many if not more. By the end of the fight, if felt like there were only 10. Did they run or some shyt.

I hate to sound nitpicky but the that whole fight scene left a bad taste in my mouth. Felt like they rushed the ending trying to tie up the loose ends.

What they got right though was the Punisher. He was easily the best thing about this season. I didn't care for the black cloud/ancient magic bull shyt story line, but every scene with Frank Castle was great. I'm really anticipating a Punisher series.


I definitely agree on your point about the Punisher! I was rooting for him so hard whenever he was on screen. Didn't give two fcuks about what happened to the scumbags of Hell's Kitchen.:wow: What sold it for me was his interaction with the KingPin. That was some really good back and forth going on between those too. I'm looking forward to when the KingPin gets out so that the Punisher can go after him.:wow:

Aside from that, I really like season 2. It really showed how Murdock's way isn't the right way. You have to be willing to get your hands dirty to get the job done.

This makes Jessica Jones look like some CW trash.

I wouldn't go that far. Jessica Jones was on some very grim sh!t. Had you on the edge of your seat while characters were dealing with their own morality, which was a very strong point of this series. I think both JJ and DD are great in their own right. Man...I can't wait for the Defenders.:wow:

He's always an army guy just like how the Perd from Parks n Rec is always the black weather guy and this guy is always Hector

The dude who plays Perd Hapley is an actual newscaster which made me :mindblown:when I found out:

Liked the actress and thought she did everything she was asked to do well, but I think Elektra kind of hurt the show. Her intro was jarring and the stuff with the hand ended up with us being sold a bill of goods. Her tag team with DD didn't do wonders for his character at all, the fights with the hand/yakuza was by large squashes that lets be fair got as repetitive as the fights in s1.

If her role was reduced and we had more fisk in prison I think the overall reaction to the season would be different
I still think this season would have benefited greatly from just focusing on The Punisher and saving the Elektra/Hand stuff for the following season.

More of a teaser than anything.

:patrice:

Who's his arch?

What villain could serve as a credible threat to the unbreakable man?

As of now, Luke Cage has lost everything in his life. Wife, love, home, his job, dignity, and etc.
He's disillusioned and he doesn't want to play hero.
Cage's villains are a bit ridiculous when taken at face value. All of them will need to be upgraded from the fukkery of the 1970s to be considered viable bad guys: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/the-...-luke-cage-thread.277932/page-3#post-14623672

What do you think happens?

So far we have:

DD S1
JJ S1
DD S2
LC S1


JJ S2 and DD S3 are unknown at the moment. History would tell us DD S3 would come out next March and we get Iron Fist next September. Maybe JJ S2 in the middle of that?
At this rate we won't see The Defenders until 2020 :pachaha:

Edit: Which is a great problem to have though, assuming the quality of these shows stay the course until then.

Defenders has to come out next year as part of the deal. It will most likely be 18 months minimum before we get Season 3 of Daredevil :mjcry:.
