That's what really works about daredevil, he's enhanced but not super duper powered.A few threads have discussed it.
I don't like super hero stuff, but this show rules.
I wish she was doing me.I was sitting here wondering for a bit who the actress that looked so much like Rosario Dawson was. I didn't think she was doing television.
How old are your kids? I'd say if they are 12 or older they'll be fine.Totally in. Was waiting to see some feedback of the kid friendly (or unfriendly) aspect of this before I dive into it. Looks like it will just be me and the wife watching this, but I'm stoked for it based on the reviews I've seen so far, although my kids are a bit bummed.

Daredevil's Creel and SHIELD's Absorbing Man are one and the same.Done with episode 2. Question about the father's boxing opponent.
Is the boxer the father beat related to Absorbing Man?
Man, the beheading scene was pretty intense for me and i'm in my 30'sHow old are your kids? I'd say if they are 12 or older they'll be fine.Totally in.

Yep. Absolutely rules.I'm through episode 8, amazingly it just keeps getting better.
I LOVED the fight scene at the end of episode 2. Daredevil comes across as powerful and vulnerable/human at the same time. Really, really, impressed by how the director/writer managed that scene.2 episodes in. Bit of a slow crawl but I like it. Fight scene in the hallway of episode 2 was incredible.
Yes.Can you watch this without being a super marvel nerd? I pretty much know nothing and would get no enjoyment of any Easter egg type stuff.
stands alone better than anything they've done IMOCapella said:Can you watch this without being a super marvel nerd? I pretty much know nothing and would get no enjoyment of any Easter egg type stuff.
yes they explain his powers/abilitiesJust watched the first episode. Kindof meh but you can tell they laid the ground work for the series. My question for those a few episodes in:
Do they ever explain his "powers" and how he anticipates the fights and what not? I know in one of the movies that showed how he "heard" and "felt" through the airwaves or whatever. Its just a little annoying to try and believe a totally blind man can just get around NYC and beat the crap out of people

in the comics they very carefully explain that essentially he has almost a sonar type of vision. His impeccable hearing and sense of touch combined with the experiences he garnered from having 9 years of sight before going blind from the radioactive goo combine to give him that sonar sense of the world.I'm in. The only *minor* complaint/issue I have is that the fact that he's blind plays virtually no role in the show IMO. I'm not sure how it was in the comics, but I haven't fully bought into how he just knows where everything is, can get around the city, not to mention block a million blows without being able to see.
I'm around episode 6 I think.
Also if you're trying to hide your identity, maybe don't wear a mask that clearly covers your eyes, making it reasonable to assume that you're blind. Kinda narrows down the field.
It takes place in the MCU, some time after Avengers. Supposedly Netflix is in discussion to produce other Marvel series.Where does this fit into the rest of the Marvel stuff, especially the movies?
