lmao breh I'm literally watching these fight scenes like:


There's no excuse for those fight scenes being so bad. Especially not after Daredevil season 1 & 2. The showrunner for Iron Fist is trash, I can't even blame the writing staff or the directors. I think I heard somewhere the Showrunner is a guy that previously said he'd never do a comic book adaptation because he thought they were silly. That'd explain the unnecessary focus on the corporate dealings.

Why is the fight choreography so asscheeks? :dahell:
I said the same thing. Colleen's fight scenes are better than the actual protagonist in the show and he's suppose to be one of the most well trained martial artists in the world. I'm stuck around episode 8 myself.
Poor plot development, poor character development and I didn't realize until people here mentioned it way too much corporate structure talk.

I finished the series and what the absolute fukk. How is it that dude he grew up with is a better fighter than him. Why did Danny just stop giving a fukk about RAND? Why is the Iron fist always struggling in a fight, why is the iron fist shaped like Seth Rogan? Why was the last person he fought not the Hand? Why is it that he trained for so long and can't throw a punch ? Really he got shot in the fist?

I stay away from the race shyt a lot when it comes to comic books but he comes across as a spoiled hipster white kid who backpacked through Asia became worldly and then decided one day he was to be rich did it and then got bored. Danny also comes across whiny and acts like brat when the world doesn't do as he thinks it should. Best thing is to kill of Danny Rand and start with a new Iron fist in season 2 or just don't have a season 2

There's so many tone deaf moments in this show that point to the showrunner and writers not knowing why people were complaining. The shyt shines through especially when it came to his interactions with Collen. He just rolls up on her and starts speaking chinese, even though she's Japanese, then he rolls up in her dojo and is constantly trying to lecture her. The craziest shyt is when he just shows up in her dojo and calls her students (who are mostly black and brown) a bunch of monkey's :picard:

I was like wait did he just say that ? With Collen it's like he is always trying to explain how Asian culture and martial arts. It comes across very douchey

This is what the it comes across as and he constantly name drops K'un Lun constantly in a very braggadocios manner. Also why does he tell everyone he comes across he is the Iron Fist

He tells everyone he's the Iron Fist and then as soon as someone asks him to prove it he can't fukking do it :mjlol:

I swear every fight involving Danny goes exactly the same.

He runs into some low level goon, the goon starts kicking Danny's ass, Something happens where the lights go out or Danny's face is obscured for some reason, then all of a sudden Danny starts beating up the low level goon.

wing sounds Japanese to you? :leon:

shyt felt so out of place and clumsy. How could any white writer in the creative process miss that? Could have used hyena or cattle but monkeys? Seemed laced with malice
