The official Netflix Marvel's "Jessica Jones" thread

[2 Up 2 Down]

I dunno how i feel about this show. I was down with the rebellious and unconventional nature of Alias / J Jones, when i read the series over a decade ago.

I just wasn't down with what came after: her gettin knocked up by and marrying Luke Cage, and having him go from essentially being Black Dynamite to being tied to the hip with this becky character in a sappy marriage/parenthood schtik that isn't black excellence or anything that helps Cage be remotely interesting. IDGAF how 'cute' it is that he has to play the "i hope she aint mad at me b/c i dont want to sleep on the couch" husband trope.. that sappy shyt. Hopefully they keep things from progressing in that route and Cage's show just focuses more on making him bad ass in his own right. Of course i expect them to eventually go with that coupling... but hopefully he and Iron Fist can do their own thing for a lengthy minute or two, before all that sappy stuff starts coming into play.

Reading some Power Man and Iron Fist from the 1970s, all I can do is at how they safe negro'd Cage
I'm seriously enjoying these early stories

they just said in the live blog Luke will eventually ended up with Jessica but not yet also his show will be completley different from what he did in the JJ show

also there showing the entire first episode of JJ

 

[kingdarius]

heard from a dude who saw the pilot at the panel that there's 2 sex scenes in the pilot and one is graphic

jessica might be gettin it in the butt after all

EDIT: oh and carrie ann moss is confirmed to be playing Jeryn Hogarth...it's a guy in the comics so they did a lil gender flip. Surprisingly he's an attorney for iron first in the comics that also represents luke so maybe luke introduces her to jessica or something

heard somewhere that MCU has a no sex clause

 

[Erik Killmonger]

•Jessica Jones, from the start, goes darker than Daredevil.
•Krysten Ritter portrays Jessica wonderfully, showing just how strong she is physically but how, in an instant, she can unravel.
•Jessica Jones is dealing with some extreme personal issues. Alcoholism being one, post-traumatic stress disorder being another. She’s being held at the seams.
•Jessica Jones presents the very first rated R scene in any Marvel show, or at least that I can think of. In two ways actual, you’ll see.
•Let’s talk about Jeryn Hogarth. In the comics, Hogarth is a male character. Obviously, Carrie-Anne Moss is not a male. Thing is, she brings such a strong presence to the screen that the character works…she reminds me best of Claire Underwood from House of Cards.
•Kilgrave is a terrifying…terrifying man. I’m not sure I’ll be able to look at David Tennant the same ever again. He’s rarely on screen and the fact he can do so much in so little screen time…I’m just afraid to see what he can do throughout a whole episode.
•As for the tone of the show, it does feel like a more dangerous sort of procedural. Think something like Luther more than Castle. It also has the noir-type music that signifies, “This is a detective show.”
•The opening credits are solid. Maybe not as good as Daredevil, but still very good.

 

[Erik Killmonger]

"Marvel’s Cinematic Universe has always had difficulty creating villains that had the same lasting power as their heroes, acting mostly as obstacles at best and stepping stones at worst for the heroes in their paths. Here though, expect to see Tennant ascend to the same level as Tom Hiddleston’s Loki and Vincent D’onfrio’s Wilson Fisk as one of the cornerstones of villainy in the MCU."

"Jessica Jones marks another amazing notch in the belt of Marvel’s Netflix deal, exploring a world that few comic book movies and television shows have dared to enter. Without a doubt, this premier episode will reel you in hook, line, and sinker, leaving you gasping from the surprises it has in store. This fall, Jessica Jones may be the show to beat!"

"★★★★★ Excellent — One of the best pilots ever."
