*** Official Marvel's Daredevil series on Netflix (1 Viewer)

May be time for a re-watching of this entire series.
I just started re-watching this last weekend with my 12 year old who is a big marvel fan but had not seen it. I forgot how violent it was. Still, at 12, I think he can handle it. We are about halfway through season 1. I had totally forgotten about the Hawkeye connection so we were both  :shock:  at the ending last night. Marvel is awesome

I remember being rather shocked with Kingpin crushes that guys head in the car door and thinking, "yeah, this show isn't OK for kids to watch".

Not sure about that, the actors and their characters will likely be in the MCU going forward but their origins and backstories in the series aren't canon for MCU and won't be carried over.

Lighten up, Francis.

As long as its Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio playing the roles, it is the same character no matter what they choose to reference.

:shrug: Makes no sense to me to re-watch a show where nothing from it plays any part in the MCU going forward. Nothing in their interactions or their story will be carried forward. The issues with Froggy or Karen or literally anything will be carried forward.

I get what you are saying.

I'm just excited about the characters again....don't feel like I need to gain any knowledge or backstory or anything....just a celebration that they are finally acknowledging the Netflix Marvel world in the MCU.

Agree on that 100%! Charlie Cox, Vincent D'Onofrio and Jon Bernthal are perfectly cast. Krysten Ritter is an ok casting.

Being entertained down?

Whether or not something is "MCU going forward" seems ridiculous to me.  The source material "retconned" stuff all the time.  If you came to a comic series late to the party, would you ignore the earlier issues?  

 

Following his appearance at Marvel Studios’ D23 presentation, Charlie Cox spoke about Daredevil: Born Again with several outlets. While Cox was quick to note that he hasn’t yet read any of the scripts for the 18-episode Disney+ series, he did tell Extra that he doesn’t expect Born Again to be a straightforward continuation of his Netflix show.

“My feeling is, based on the title, Born Again, I think that the sense is it’s gonna be a new beginning, it’s going to be different. It’s going to be tonally different,” Cox said. “It’s going to be new stories, and new ideas.” The actor also said, “Like Kevin [Feige] said, it’s a Season 1, it’s not Season 4, so it’s a whole new thing. Which is, I think, the right way to go. If you are going to do it again, let’s do it differently.”
 
Cautiously optimistic. Last I read none of the original shows writers are involved. So I’ll give it a chance for sure but expectations are low given how disappointing (IMO) most of the MCU D+ shows have been so far.
 
i hope that the daredeviler comes back and that he has a sidekick who is better than foggy and i for one hope that sidekick is none other than moana it makes sense because they are both disney and no one can fight a ninja like moana so bam sorry about the spoiler but that is probably how it will go down take that to the bank bromigos

:shrug: I thought they have all been good to excellent so far, the fact that its the original actors I have faith they will knock it out of the park again. Don't forget, based on reviews, most only loved DD and Punisher. JJ, Luke Cage were meh for a lot of folks, and most downright hated Iron Fist. Defenders was somewhere between watchable and meh for most all.

I personally loved all but Iron Fist, thought it was ok.

To each their own, which is why I said IMO. I’ve only thought Loki and WandaVision were really good myself. I enjoyed Hawkeye. The rest have been meh to outright bad (FatWS was downright terrible, once again, IMO.) And WV was kind of completely rendered pointless by MoM. The D+ Star Wars shows have been equally disappointing as well other than parts of Mando. If I wasn’t getting D+ for free I’d probably have cancelled it by now (I don’t have kids.)
 
And WV was kind of completely rendered pointless by MoM.
What do you mean - MoM was directly tied to Wanda Vision?
A common complaint about Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is that it completely undercuts Wanda’s arc in WandaVision, and the entirety of the Disney+ show. Not everyone agrees with that I know, but I definitely felt that way when I saw Multiverse of Madness. And that’s with the comic knowledge that the Darkhold corrupts everyone who reads it. My wife for example was totally confused on why Wanda was now bad, and while she has no comic knowledge, she did watch AofS season 4 which featured the Darkhold and had to remind her about those episodes and how it corrupts everyone who reads it.
 
New season drops March 4th. Looking forward to seeing this.

Vincent D'Onofrio has had a long and distinguished career. Everything from Full Metal Jacket to Men in Black to Law & Order. Worthy of the Hollywood version of the Hall of Fame. However, he was BORN to play the Kingpin! Such depth. It is a masterclass in acting. I think my man crush on him surpasses my man crush on Tom Harding lol
 
Wow....didn't see that coming. I'm a bit shocked.
For sure.

I put this in the MCU thread:
AND I AM SO :censored: THEY KILLED FOGGY AND MOVED KAREN TO SF!!!!!! :hot::rant:HOPEFULLY WE SEE MORE OF KAREN THOUGH
Word is, the show does not do what you want in your last line.
From my understanding, Foggy and Karen were late additions as part of rewrites that happened, I'm willing to bet what we saw int he beginning of Ep1 was the reshoots and they didn't have time to include her in the larger story. Look for her in part 2.

Correct. Feige didn't like how the original story was going after 3 eps and fired everyone, redoing everything. Didn't sound like it was a reshoot as much as a complete start over. But I don't know. I hope she comes back for S2.
 
Yeah this show rocks. First two episodes knocked it out of the park.

That ending of Ep2...:oops:
I've liked both episodes but there's been very little Daredevil in Daredevil so far.

The diner scene dialogue was incredible, and the story is being set up well so I'm not really complaining.
I look at these episodes as a big set up with a payoff at the end of ep2.

Ep1 we got 10 minutes of Daredevil, then the remaining episode and first 40 minutes of ep2 was Matt being a lawyer and resisting temptation with the culmination of ep2 being his realization the city needs daredevil and as much as he'd like to solve problems as Matt, it won't work and if he doesn't act people will get hurt.

I fully expect ep3 onward to have a very different ratio of Matt vs DD
 
No need to read this, I just feel like ranting.

In the comics, Daredevil and Spiderman work together often, sometimes even being referred to as good friends. I want this in the movies. It would be epic.

Before any of you put a dunce cap on me and send me to stand in the corner, know I am aware of these two things:
a.) Sony owns Spiderman, and will not allow Spiderman to appear in Daredevil without SIGNIFICANT financial compensation.
b.) Matt Murdock has appeared in a Spiderman movie as a lawyer to council Petey and his Aunt regarding a legal problem.

I just wish they could get above their greed and egos to make this happen.

It better, or Disney is about to make the same mistake Netflix made with Daredevil. Unfortunately it would be the same mistake Disney has made with LOTS of other marvel TV projects, which is to go cheap on the superhero stuff. It would be a shame, too, because DD is one of the properties where they can actually get away with a lot lower special effects budget than, say, avengers or even Spider-Man. As mentioned in the MCU thread, too bad they didn't realize this and put a Black Widow series together, which would have been awesome.

I think another Bucky series would be great in that vein.

I have confidence they’ll keep daredevil daredevil. The hype around this show repeatedly said it was going to be brutally violent and so far I can see that continuing
 
Who said Disney ruined Daredevil?

I like it so far but we need more Daredevil and Kingpin less Yappa Yappa Yappa imo.
 
I see a mix between "its great and the best MCU show yet" and "Disney ruined Daredevil". Doesn't seem to be any in between, love or hate...
I'm in the its very good camp. Not the best MCU show (not even the best Daredevil at this point). Far from "Disney ruined Daredevil".
Sure, hard to top the original, but if it gets close to any of the first three seasons I will be happy.
Which D+ do you rate higher?

A lot online mostly. Could be just trolling but it does seem to be split via love/hate, not much in between.
I guess in the original series we didn’t even get the Daredevil costume until the last episode of the season - so this isn’t uncharted territory.
Well technically he wasn't in the suit until the end of S1, but he was at least running around in his black mask being DD. Aside from the opening seen he hasn't even been doing that.

I really loved the concept and execution of WandaVision and Loki. I agree, if this one can exceed Season 2 and get close to Season 3 of DD, I'll be very happy.

I did like the Hawkeye series as well, and What If has been entertaining, but I think this Daredevil has the potential to easily beat those. Not sure if it can top WV and Loki for me though.

Most of the other D+ series have been "pretty good to ok". Falcon and Winter Solider was pretty good. I'm in the small camp that thought SheHulk wasn't as bad as others, putting it in the "ok" camp. MoonKnight was "ok" but really ranked as a disappointment for me as I had high hopes.

I didn't like Echo, and I was massively disappointed in Secret Invasion. For some reason, I've only seen 2 episodes each of Agatha and Ms. Marvel, though I've heard both are good. I just didn't captured by the first few, which is really shocking on Agatha because I loved the character in WandaVision.

Thanks. I am with you on these actually. Although MoonKnight and Secret Invasion are on my worst list and I really liked Agatha.

I need to get into Agatha, most everyone says it is good and I don't know what I was expecting but I just didn't get hooked immediately. I may have been in a weird mood :)

Sometimes a character is better as the nosey neighbor than the lead. And It does start off in a weird offshoot of WV kind of way. But does get to be a fun ride once they get into the adventure with some actual good twists and turns.

IMO worth another look, but if it doesn't grab you what can you do?
 
Agatha is very different than WandaVision and takes a little while to get going, but it is worth it.

My ranking of Disney+ and Netflix Marvel shows (not network shows like Agents of Shield):
1) WandaVision
2) Daredevil
3) Loki
4) Agatha All Along
5) Hawkeye
6) Punisher
7) Jessica Jones
8) She-Hulk: Attorney at Law
9) What If?
10) Ms. Marvel
11) The Defenders
12) Echo
13) Secret Invasion
14) Moon Knight
15) Falcon and the Winter Soldier
16) Luke Cage
17) Iron Fist
 
Here we go again. Another superhero show with 3 episodes in and about 5 minutes of actual, well, super-hero'ing.

Disney: we don't want just another courtroom procedural. Even though the characters are compelling, they have to be super-powered and we need to see them doing super-powered stuff or this will fizzle. Sure it will attract some die-hards but it looks like you're still just trying to do a super hero show on the cheap (aka cash in).

Yeah I noticed that as well. Thought they were reworking for more DD and less Murdock but guess not. I am hoping it pays off though with the way this ep ended and what should be coming...

I know when I was a kid I couldn't wait for that day every month when I could finally catch up on Matt Murdock's latest compelling courtroom drama. It was second only to all those edge-of-my-seat moments that Peter Parker spent in study hall, homeroom, and don't forget the cafeteria at lunchtime! It's that kind of deep storytelling that made Marvel the juggernaut that it is today.

He is a really good lawyer
 
Put another way: if THIS is what Stan Lee's legions of fans wanted all those years, they could have put out the NetFlix (and now Disney) Marvel shows in the 80s and done just fine. There's a reason Marvel is hot now and is slipping away from Disney's grasp, and it ain't because we're in the "golden age of television".

Hint: special effects play a role.
 
Daredevil does it again to me....

I didn't have Netflix and then there was that free period. I started watching Daredevil and then I was hooked. I have had Netflix since.

I been very close to canceling Disney + as they have been producing crap upon crap upon crap recently. Just as I was about to pull the trigger.... Daredevil comes out. DANG, this is even better than the first run. Hooked again and Disney + is saved.

I’m pretty sure Daredevil comes out of retirement now.

I get the frustration of very little Daredevil in Daredevil but I believe there are 13 episodes and we’ve only seen 3 so far which have set up the overarching storyline.
